Villa Saracena is situated in a complex of holiday residences on a stretch of coast near the seafront town of Brucoli, virtually equidistant from Catania to the north and Syracuse to the south. In summer the holiday complex gets more lively and offers facilities such as a tennis club and a grocery shop, while outside the peak months, it has a more tranquil feel. Heading south past Siracusa is Noto, many sandy beaches, including those in Vendicari Nature Reserve and the other UNESCO World Heritage towns of and Ragusa, Modica and Scicli. An easy drive to the north will take you past Catania to Taormina and Mount Etna.

This vacation was like no other we have had. It was full of relaxation and adventure. Villa Saracena was excellent and beautiful. The view of Mount Etna was stunning and the grounds were relaxing. The housekeeper took care of our every need and she cooked our dinner each night.

Villa Saracena had a lovely pool and a great view of the (very close) sea. The staff were extremely helpful, nice and flexible.

Our stay at Villa Saracena was probably the best vacation I have ever had. There were so many things to be happy about at Villa Saracena! The grounds are so lush and beautifully maintained with lots of flowering plants, including my favorite oleander! The villa itself is impeccable. It looked as if it was freshly painted and immaculate. The accommodations were perfect. The bedrooms were separated, so you could retreat to your room and regroup in a cool quiet bedroom. The shared living space was abundant and the huge working kitchen was fully appointed. Last but not least. was the large clean pool, and a beautiful outdoor living spaces. The downstairs area included Jacuzzi, sauna and hot tub along with a full bathroom. I loved swimming in the sea and jumping off the rocks. Did I mention the spectacular view of Mount Etna. Can’t wait to return!
