The Area

Following the defeat of the Athenians in 413 BC Syracuse was arguably the most important city in the Mediterranean (and hence perhaps the world). Remains of that period are beautifully preserved in Ortygia, at Neapolis and in the fabulous archaeological museum, all of which are within just a few minutes drive of Villa San Tommaso. Syracuse is not just an Ancient Greek museum however. The old baroque island city of Ortygia offers a marvellous choice of restaurants, bars and shops in beautiful piazzas and on the sea front. Also within easy distance of Villa San Tommaso are white sand beaches, towns such as Noto, Modica and Ragusa, Mount Etna, and much more.

Villa San Tommaso is a stunning home with stunning grounds. The house manager was incredible. We would return because it felt like home. We loved it all. Thank you so much for making our stay so easy and so wonderful for our family.

Jackie Fish October 2024

Villa San Tommaso is a spectacular villa with wonderful grounds and swimming pool. Another thing that stood out was the unobtrusive help of the house manager.

LB September 2024

We loved everything about Villa San Tommaso. It's a a very special villa, a beautiful, authentic and beautifully furnished house that feels like a home. Every terrace of the garden was lovingly tended, its plants and lawns carefully thought out over many years, elegant steps leading down to the most glorious swimming pool, the best I have ever swum in. We barely left the villa - it had everything we needed, and we spent hours gazing out at the exquisite far-reaching views. The wonderful housekeeper wove in and out of our week with consummate professionalism and good cheer!

Annie M-J July 2024

Our overall experience with The Thinking Traveller and Villa San Tommaso was exceptional. The villa itself was impeccable. It had all the amenities we wanted and was very clean and well furnished. The grounds were gorgeous and the pool area was wonderful. The location was convenient to many things and the House Manager was incredible - he anticipated all of our needs! Thank you for an overall unforgettable experience!

TH June 2024

We would return to Villa San Tommaso for the quality of the villa and the housekeeping service.

Verified guest, July 2024

The gardens, the view and the pool area at Villa San Tommaso were dreamy…a true Sicilian oasis that felt like home! It was comfortable, clean, and warm. In addition, we loved the area, being not too far to visit many beautiful towns in East Sicily. The daily breakfast and daily cleaning provided by the house manager was wonderful and the chef was amazing! Overall, a most wonderful and memorable experience!! We will cherish the memories made at Villa San Tommaso forever!
