The charming home is situated in a fantastic spot, overlooking the sparkling blue waters of the ocean and the surrounding landscape of Acireale. One of our favourite spots in this home is the wonderful bedroom that is encompassed by floor-to-ceiling windows that light up the space whilst giving you a peek into nature – we recommend relaxing in bed as the day draws in, with the amber glow streaming into the bedroom. The second bedroom in the loft has a TV, making it easier than ever to snuggle up in bed while you watch a movie with some tasty snacks. Cook up a storm in the sleek kitchen and tuck into a variety of homemade meals alfresco style on the patio, followed by a snooze in the tree hammock as the children enjoy themselves on the garden playground. Dip your toes into the refreshing water of your very own pool whilst you admire the view of the sea and the relaxing sound of the waves. To the right of the pool, you'll notice a rocky beach, giving you a sense of rurality as you soak up the rays. A short drive takes you to the city centre of Acireale, a delightful... coastal destination that is located at the foot of Mount Etna. Throughout the city, you'll find a wide range of eateries to sample some of the finest Italian cuisine as well as a great selection of tourist spots that provide you with ample opportunities for those gorgeous holiday snaps.
