Found in Fontane Bianche, this minimalist Sicilian villa is an ideal spot for mental decluttering. We were big fans of the pool, thanks to it being bordered by rows of gorgeous tropical plants – perfect for ensuring privacy. And with the home looking out to the east, you'll want to wake up early at least once during your stay to catch a sunrise over the sea. In the local area, you'll of course find the gorgeous beach and plenty of eateries, while you're also a short drive from nature reserves, historical sites, and quaint fishing villages.
