Chic elegance, a heatable pool and direct sea access…L’Olivastro is a splendid sea-front villa that has been cleverly designed to maximize its wonderful panoramic position. Surrounded by a luxuriant Mediterranean garden and terracotta-tiled terraces, its gates will lead you directly into the limpid, translucent waters of the Mediterranean Sea... unless, of course, you prefer the heatable pool and its hydromassage corner!

The Area

Fontane Bianche is just a few kilometres south of Syracuse and its white sandy beach has made it a popular resort for the well to do of that prosperous and historical town.

Ideally placed as a base to visit the south east of Sicily, the villa is about fifteen minutes from Syracuse and Noto, an hour from Ragusa or Catania and and hour and a half from Taormina or Mount Etna.

For those in search of the outdoors, there is some good walking in the nature reserves of Cassibile and Pantalica and some wonderful deserted beaches at Capo Passero and the Vendicari Nature Reserve (where you may also see migrating flamingos or even turtles).

L'Olivasro is a beautiful villa with great service. We would return.

CC October 2024

We would return to L'Olivastro as it was the perfect place for us. The incredible, wonderful view and the calm area with the ocean so near and the sound of nature made us relax completely.

The views at L'Olivastro are spectacular. I have never stayed in a villa so close to the sea. The gardens are glorious, beautifully looked after, and there were lots of little touches in the grounds that I loved, such as elegant tiles, and a swimming pool that felt like an old Roman bath (in a good way!). ,The house has been thoughtfully furnished and has a lovely, breezy, open feel to it. The sound of the sea permeates the experience. We loved sitting on the top terrace, gazing out at the sea and watching boats go past, and we particularly liked the outdoor eating area, which was on a terrace beside the house and had beautiful views of the glistening sea, framed by flowers and hedges. Stunning.

Annie M-J July 2024

What stood out about L'Olivastro was the view and the closeness to the sea, as well an the layout of the interior. Everything was just very good.
