"The best villa in Sicily... There is an embarrassment of beauty at Don Arcangelo all’Olmo. It is exquisitely peaceful... It's like having your own five-star hotel.” Condé Nast Traveller, The Best of Sicily. Don Arcangelo all'Olmo (or L'Olmo for short) is, quite simply, one of the very finest properties available for rent in Sicily. It is a superbly finished luxury villa in a stunning and perfectly peaceful setting between the sea and Mount Etna. The views, the gardens, the heatable pool, the style of the house, the fittings and furnishings, and the relaxed but professional nature of the welcome make it a hard act to beat indeed. Don Arcangelo all’Olmo in AD Italia.

The Area

Situated near the town of Giarre on the east coast of Sicily, Don Arcangelo all'Olmo is a good base from which to visit Catania, Taormina, Mount Etna and the fascinating villages on the volcano's flanks. There are also several charming fishing villages and some nice beaches nearby. An eighteen hole golf course is about 45 minutes drive away.

Further afield, Syracuse, the baroque towns of the Noto valley, the quiet beaches of Vendicari and Capo Passero to the south and Messina to the north are all comfortably reachable for day trips.

We can also arrange for you to over fly Mount Etna and many other sites, or to make excursions to the Aeolian Islands, by helicopter.

The nearby beaches of Fiumefreddo and Marina di Cottone have received several consecutive "Bandiere Blu", attesting to the cleanliness of the water and their general ecological excellence.
