Nestled near the charming village of Tropea and its bustling marina, Sunlight Heaven offers a hidden oasis. As you approach this haven, you pass through historic streets lined with artisan shops and picturesque buildings, feeling the vibrancy of local life. The scent of the sea mingles with the aromas of fresh bergamot, carried by gentle breezes across the olive-dotted countryside.
Sunlight Heaven, once an 18th-century farm and tuff quarry, retains its rustic charm while offering modern comforts. The main villa is spacious and bright, with a cosy outbuilding accommodating up to five guests: four adults and one infant or one child.
Inside, the villa greets you with a blend of raw, ancient materials and contemporary design. The interiors feature two well-equipped kitchens, one indoor and one outdoor, each ready for you to prepare delicious meals. The decor is a harmonious mix of natural colours and ecological design, echoing the simplicity and beauty of rural life.
Stepping outside, you are embraced by the expansive eight-hectare private outdoor space. The air is filled with the earthy scent of olive trees and the freshness of an organic vegetable garden. Handmade hammocks sway gently in the orchard, offering the perfect spot to relax under the shade of peach trees. The outdoor kitchen, complete with a wood-burning oven and barbecue area, invites you to enjoy al fresco dining.
An independent entrance ensures privacy, allowing you to fully unwind in this serene retreat. A path from the property leads you through Tropea's famous red onions and vibrant Mediterranean vegetation fields to the sparkling sea.
Sunlight Heaven is more than just a villa; it is a place where nature, history, and modern sustainability converge. This unique estate, once frequented by local nobles and the site of romantic serenades, now offers a sustainable escape that honours its rich past while providing a comfortable stay. Here, every element, from the refined, eco-friendly design to the lush, fragrant gardens, invites you to reconnect with nature and savour the simplicity of rural life.
