Overview

In Western Sicily, ancient ruins and picturesque towns rise from rolling landscapes, whispering stories of a rich and layered past. Taormina, perched dramatically on a hillside above the Ionian Sea, enchants with its narrow, cobbled streets lined with vibrant boutiques, cafes, and historic palaces. The ancient Greek theater offers breathtaking views of Mount Etna and the coastline, while charming piazzas invite leisurely moments under the warm Sicilian sun. With its elegant blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, Taormina evokes the luxurious world portrayed in Netflix’s The White Lotus, and Amarilda, multiple levels villa with its stunning sea views, offers a stay both sophisticated and unforgettable.

Living Spaces

Main villa - Ground Floor

The ground floor welcomes guests with a bright foyer leading to an inviting social area designed for gathering and relaxation. Here, an elegant dining table sets the scene for shared meals, while a cozy sitting area with a large TV invites moments of unwinding together. An upright piano adds a touch of charm—perfect for talented guests who wish to fill the home with music. Wide glass sliding doors open onto a beautifully furnished terrace, where indoor comfort meets the pleasure of outdoor living. The kitchen is fully equipped to serve both the dining room and the terrace, making entertaining effortless. A guest bathroom and a laundry room complete the floor.

Family Dependance – Level Below the Pool

A bright, contemporary living and dining space opens onto lush surroundings through wide glass doors, effortlessly merging indoor comfort with the outdoors. Designer furnishings create a sophisticated yet inviting ambiance, and a compact kitchen is thoughtfully arranged for convenient use.

Outdoor Features

Set across multiple levels, the villa offers stunning furnished terraces and a variety of outdoor living spaces, with several stairways leading directly to the private beach—the only other access is by sea. Manicured terraced gardens, lush with tropical plants and Mediterranean flora, create a tranquil, sun-drenched setting. The large swimming pool and furnished sundeck, complete with a bar for drinks and aperitivos, invite leisurely afternoons. A conveniently located poolside bathroom adds ease and comfort. Overlooking a breathtaking bay, this serene retreat is the ultimate expression of seaside living—relaxing by the crystal-clear waters, soaking up the sun, and savoring every moment in style.

Special Characteristics

This villa offers the perfect blend of luxury and prime location in a truly unique setting. Guests are treated to breathtaking panoramic views at every turn, while the multi-level floorplan ensures privacy and space for the entire party. Its signature features include direct access to the beach, multiple sun-soaked terraces, and uninterrupted vistas of the sparkling bay. Just a short stroll away, you’ll find boutique shops, fine restaurants, and the Mazzarò cable car, which in summer runs daily from 8:00 AM to 1:30 AM, whisking you effortlessly to the historic heart of Taormina every 15 minutes. For those who prefer to drive, the villa is equally well connected, offering the ideal base to explore Sicily in style.
