The Villa has three double bedrooms and two bathrooms one with shower and one with tub and shower. Moreover there is an upstairs terrace with breathtaking 360° views .
Large BBq with outside table for 12 people. Wide garden.
The house is super quiet and has amazing views. 10 minutes walknig to Vendicari Beach. 10 km from Noto.

Note: min stay on June, July and Agust = 7 nights
extra cleaning: 12 euros per hour



Access to the sea

The house is located in the B area of the natural reserve, once you
cross the road (SP19) you are in the natural reserve, a walk all the
way to the beach takes 15/20min at a fast pace, although it's a really
pleasant and short car ride and the parking is easy and free, so I
suggest probably to ride by car to the parking and walk from there so
you don't have to cross the SP19, however a walk should take you 15min or so. Once in the natural reserve you can
choose among 6 different sandy beaches, depending on how far you want
to walk (the coastline is about 12Kms)

Beaches

The best beaches are all in the natural reserve, you have Vendicari which is about 3min drive from home which I love, Marinelli which is about 7min drive, Cala Mosche which is about 10 min drive and Eloro which is about 15min drive, all of these you can reach walking through the natural reserve from Vendicari, easy walks in nature

Restaurants

Going to Vendicari there is a restaurant open air which I like to go to from time to time, it's the only one you find on the street to Vendicari and you see it from the street, about 2kms away from the house. Going to Cala Mosche there are two restaurants that I love in the unpaved road, one is called Torre Vendicari and the other one is beside the parking of Cala Mosche

In Noto I go to Dammuso or to the Crocifisso and I love both of them. If you want to stay on the cheap side, though tasty and somewhat charming, go to Il Libertino across the street from the Dammuso. All of these you can find on google for directions and phone numbers.

In Scicli I go to Satra, great quality, a little expensive but worth it.

In Marzamemi (Please Note: Marzamemi is generally become a tourist trap and is to be avoided, but if you really want to go)

1- Campisi (possibly closed in winter)
2- La Cialoma, amazing location right on the main Piazza, the value for money is bad compared to other places in the area.
4- Giramapao, good value for money, but not such a great location, it's on the corso right before Campisi going towards the Piazza

Restaurants in PortoPalo
1- Pensione Scala, amazing value for money, location not so great
2- U Piscaturi, good location near the harbor, huge quantities, average quality, good price


Supermarkets and Groceries

Closest supermarkets are in Noto and or Pachino at about 8kms distance, otherwise small groceries can be found in San Lorenzo at about 4kms distance and/or Marzamemi about 5Kms distance.
My tip is to use the three wheelers for the produce, so you get it local, in the supermarket you'll get low quality imported produce.

Meat

This is not a meat area really, I think that at Lidl in Avola have a good meat selection

Or at the 'Sì Più' just when entering Noto, the supermarket to the left

Fish

For the fish you may want to try Dugo, near the main Piazza in Pachino or further away go to the harbor in Portopalo where you will find the fish market



Wineries


a. http://planeta.it/territories/noto/

b. There is a very characteristic winery close to home 'Cantine Modica' you can follow the indications, it's about 5km from home, this is not nearly as professional and high quality, but may be interesting exactly for that. They have a place in Noto, which is touristy, and place near us which is very real. Maybe call them if you can't find it?

Your architect-designed villa is one of several in the hills behind Vendicari Nature Reserve, on the southern-most part of Sicily’s east coast. Peter and Ottavia live in Rome but have added personal touches to the décor.

Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and a roof terrace make the most of the amazing views, and although the house sleeps six there’s room to entertain plenty more. An open fire keeps things cosy in colder weather, and you can fire up the barbecue and dine al fresco on the veranda in the summer.

Hike through the nature reserve and spot migratory birds on the lagoon, or walk along the rocky coastline; the picturesque fishing village of Marzamemi and the Baroque palazzos and churches of the city of Noto are just 15 minutes’ drive away
