The Area
Gli Ulivi is situated in the lower hills of the north coast, overlooking Capo D'Orlando and its long sandy beach. Just a couple of kilometres east along the coast is the fabulous beach of San Gregorio, a delightful setting with views of the Aeolian Islands.
In the summer months, Capo d'Orlando's tourist port offers a good range of boats to rent and organised boat trips to the Aeolian Islands.
Behind the house, the Nebrodi Mountains rise majestically. They are home to dozens of age-old villages, fantastic scenery, great walking opportunities and some superb restaurants.
Along the coast to the east is the Sanctuary and Greek and Roman remains at Tindari - highly recommended, while to the west lies the lovely Mediaeval town of Cefalu.
Also very easily accomplished are day trips to Mount Etna and Taormina , which is a little over 1 hour's drive away.

Great welcome, beautiful setting and nice villa.
CG, United Kingdom August 2021
The photographs of Gli Ulivi don't really do it justice. The setting and the grounds are really beautiful, particularly the area around the pool. The views of the sea, the islands, the sunsets and some impressive storms were extraordinary. The quality of the WiFi was also very good and Sky Sports was an unexpected bonus for some of our party. All of the beds and pillows were very comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. There are also several outside dining areas, but our favourite was under the beautiful olive tree next to the pool.

All excellent. We are very impressed with your staff and company. You deserve to be very successful and we will book again.

We were delighted with Gli Ulivi and the staff.
Verified guest, July 2019
Gli Ulivi was great and the outside space was fabulous. The location is stunning, we loved the view and it was quiet and very relaxing. We liked its old-fashioned feel and the pool is great.
