Description

In one of the most famous and rich areas of Sicily, Val di Noto, Villa Orizzonte stands among fields of carob trees, olive trees and dry stone walls, a subtle and elegantly eloquent tribute to local traditions.
A unique place, where to find refreshment from the stress of the city and connect with the most authentic Sicily.

Inside

The space of this beautiful property, essential and modern in design, is spread on three small buildings all connected with interior stairs and accessible from outside if necessary. The materials, resin, wood, iron, steel and local stone dominate the spacious and comfortable expanses and make the environment fresh, modern and elegant at the same time.
The floors and bathrooms coverings are expertly chosen by the architect of this prestigious villa to create a pleasant homogeneity of style, contemporary and minimal design.
The living area can be accessed by large sliding glass doors that allow the light to illuminate the interior spaces and enjoy the superb view of the pool and surrounding countryside while you are inside the house.
The modern kitchen is complete with all the appliances and tools needed for a comfortable self-catered holiday.
The dining area with its wooden design table offers 8 seats. In the living area, there are also comfortable sofas and armchairs with a modern design.

On the same level, we find two master bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a laundry area. A small staircase leads to a second zone of the property where there are two more bedrooms with private bathrooms. All rooms in this charming villa have direct access to a private furnished outdoor space and pool area.

Outside

The outside areas of Orizzonte are characterized by the presence of typical elements of the Sicilian countryside, dry stone walls, carob and olive trees which bring us back to a time that flows slowly and the summer breeze gently lull us. Just outside the living area, we find a terrace shaded by the typical Sicilian roof (incannucciata) covered with reeds, equipped with a table for 4 people. A little further on, a large carob tree gives shade to an elegant dining area with a table and seats for 8 people where you can have lunch outside or dine under the stars on hot summer evenings.
The beautiful stone swimming pool makes the most of the wonderful location of this property allowing you to swim surrounded by panoramic views of the countryside to the sea, a spectacular scenery.
Comfortable sun loungers and umbrellas are available in the pool area and in the surrounding terraces to enjoy the sun and relax.

Villa Orizzonte also has a very nice lava stone barbecue area and convenient covered parking.

The Area

Orizzonte is located in one of the best areas of Sicily in terms of Unesco World Heritage sites as well as Nature Reserves, amazing spots and beautiful beaches. Noto, which is just 5 km away, apart from its historical and artistic importance, also offers leisure activities to its visitors. Even though it is located at the foot of the Iblei Mountains, it is near the south-eastern coast and it is quite simple to reach some of the most popular local beaches. Lido di Noto, main beach destination for the locals and full of life during the summer is reachable in 10 minutes by car. It has a fine sandy beach and is served by bars and beach clubs, highly suitable for families with children. Cassibile waterfalls and canyon and paleolithic burial site of Pantalica are also easily reachable and perfect for hiking and trekking lovers. A very nice choice of bars restaurants and shops can be found in Noto town centre and nearby towns such as Modica and Ragusa. In the south of Noto there are some of the most beautiful beaches in Sicily inside the Vendicari Nature reserve: Calamosche beach, a little sandy bay between two rocky headlands immersed in un-spoilt nature and Eloro. Both can be reached after a 30-minute walk through the Reserve where migrating birds, flamingos and sea turtles love to nest. The ancient Roman remains of Villa Romana del Tellaro can be found in the same area. In one and a half hour driving you will also reach Etna, Europe’s highest active volcano or Taormina, the Pearl of Sicily, both of which are well worth a visit.

Luogo magico!

Luogo magico, intimo in cima ad una collina con bellissima vista sulla costa. Siamo stati accolti da uno staff molto gentile e preparato. La villa era perfetta, direi per intenditori, se amate il design. Mobili, complementi d’arredo, libri, dvd, tutto scelto con estrema cura, da intenditori. Amando l’arte e il design, ci siamo sentiti a casa. Suggestive le serate all’esterno, le cene al grande tavolo, protetti da una magica enorme pianta che di giorno fungeva da protezione per il sole. La piscina incantevole, il design, il colore, la vista. Ci siamo sentiti cullati e viziati dallo staff che con estrema discrezione ha fatto in modo che tutto fosse sempre perfetto, pulito ed in ordine. Un particolare grazie a Ketty che a causa di una nostra svista, ha risolto brillantemente il recupero di una valigia dimenticata. Grazie di cuore.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Orizzonte!

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Orizzonte and can’t recommend it enough. The villa itself is amazing with gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside and the sea. The rooms are elegantly decorated, bathrooms modern and the kitchen is very well equipped. We stayed in and cooked on a number of nights and loved using the kitchen. The pool was also a lovely addition. The location is ideal with a 10 minute drive to the beach or a 10 minute drive to the UNESCO listed town of Noto. There were six of us with two cars (ample parking spaces) and we all loved staying at the villa.

We spent 10 wonderful days in Villa Orizzonte near Noto and were very pleased. The Select Sicily agency was very professional and responsive during the booking process and the on-site follow-up was very well managed by Ketty (cleaning of rooms, pool, terrace, rubbish collection). Many thanks to them. The Villa is magnificent, spacious, well maintained and equipped, especially the kitchen. The view is beautiful, and dining and relaxing under the carob tree a dream! The villa's location is ideal: just a few minutes from the superb baroque town of Noto and the beach, not to mention all the other things to discover in the surrounding area. We highly recommend it!

Our stay at Villa Orizzonte was fantastic!

Our stay at Villa Orizzonte was fantastic. We received over the top attention from Ketty the onsite property manager. The Chef recommended by Select Sicily prepared an excellent regional meal for seven people finished with a classic dessert and a guitar accompanied rendition of O Sole Mio. Wonderful lifelong memory. The process of booking, completing and ending the Villa rental was professionally handled respectful of our needs and in general, flawless. Bravo Lavinia, Ketty and Monica.

We had a wonderful time

"Villa Orizzonte is a sanctuary of calm comfort and beauty. We had a wonderful time. The views are stunning. We loved our family diners alfresco on the patio and cocktails on the rooftop terrace. Honestly, Noto and the surrounding countryside is lovely, but whenever we left the villa, we couldn't wait to return. This is a very special place."

Villa Orizzonte, Noto

We had the most amazing two week stay on the East coast. The Villa exceeded expectations and communication and organisation was excellent from booking with Lavinia, through to being extremely well looked after by Ketty and team during our stay. Would recommend beautiful Sicily to everyone, and wouldn’t hesitate to book via Select Sicily again

Villa Orizzonte

We spended 2 weeks in this beautiful modern house surrounded by almondtrees and olivetrees. The caroubtree gave us shade to have lunch even with hot weather. the pool is magnificent and you swim and see the Mediteranean sea at the same time. This is great. Select sicily was helpful and very reactive each time we needed something. Great stay in Sicily and we really hope to come back. Adeline THOMAS

Alles hervorragend!

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in der Villa Orizzonte. Die Villa ist wunderschön und die Lage ist ideal, um Noto, das Naturschutzgebiet Vendicari und Syrakus zu besuchen. Ausgezeichneter Check-in und Betreuung vor Ort, Paola war immer erreichbar und gab uns viele Tipps für den Besuch der Gegend. Die Sauberkeit des Hauses war ausgezeichnet, und wir haben es sehr geschätzt, dass eine Zwischenreinigung angeboten wurde. Alles hervorragend!

In September 2021 we consecutively…

In September 2021 we consecutively rented two villas via Select Sicily, each for one week. In the first week we stayed in Villa Orizzonte near Noto. The villa can only be described as being excellent and up to the highest standards. The architectural design of the villa, the pool, the gardens, the view and the surroundings are fantastic. Also the mangers of the property were very friendly and helpful.
