Situated inside a small apartment building, this home makes for a cosy base for those visiting Sicily’s picturesque eastern coast. Just a short walk from the beach and a few minutes' drive from the town of Marzamemi, you’ll be able to enjoy tranquillity here as well as being close to all the amenities. We love the terrace, which is the place to savour communal feasts and share sunset drinks. The inside is on the compact side but there’s more than ample room for a small family or an intimate group of friends.
