About This Villa

Immerse yourself in beautiful Sicilian landscapes at Tenuta Mediterranea, an authentic and picturesque holiday home set on a hillside with far-reaching views of the mountain and sea, not far from the much-loved seaside town of Cefalù.

Tenuta Mediterranea enjoys an idyllic hillside setting with its own entrance and grounds. Inside the villa, appreciate the tenuta’s historic charm with many original features across the main villa and its two annexes alongside modern comforts such as air-conditioning and satellite TV. Find eight welcoming bedrooms, some with en suite bathrooms, as well as living and dining spaces and the most delightful Sicilian kitchen with picture-perfect views through its arched window.

Gather to dine al-fresco beneath the shaded terrace or in the courtyard, make the most of the outdoor kitchen and barbecue or come together to relax by the poolside with its sun beds, stone walls and olive trees, surrounded by such glorious island scenery.

This villa is made for relaxation yet there is so much to explore close by. Not just the two local villages, so traditional in style and both perfect places to pick up morning pastries or stop off for a coffee in an atmospheric piazza. You also have some fantastic stretches of coastline within easy reach from the summer lidos near Campofelice di Roccella to the windsurfing spots of Capo Plaja and the picturesque coves of Mazzaforno.

Cefalù is of course another great drawer of this region with its exquisite medieval lanes, impressive Norman cathedral and superb sandy bay and promenade, ideal for an evening stroll followed by a lively meal in one of the many beachside restaurants. Take a boat tour of the nearby coastline or climb to the top of imposing La Rocca for sensational views as far as the Aeolian Islands.

The landscapes of La Madonie Natural Park are also waiting to be admired, a paradise for nature lovers, hikers, mountain bikers and horse-riding enthusiasts. You may simply prefer to drive to one of the park’s many gorgeous villages and soak up the Sicilian charm as you enjoy a lunch out with the most incredible scenery around you.
