Overview

Pool Modern Beach Nearby Ideal for Kids
Pets on Request
All Bedrooms En-Suite

Nestled among carob and olive trees, this remarkable property offers you a quiet Sicilian retreat, with the benefit of nearby amenities. Enjoy the views of the sea, while nursing a glass of the local Nero d’Avola, and adjust to the slow pace of Italian country life.

The property can accommodate up to six guests and boasts open plan living areas, as well as a swimming pool and terrace. Tastefully decorated throughout with customised finishes by local artisans, Villa Nouvel has been built to give guests breathtaking views of the sea and the nearby artificial lake at every opportunity. Its designer kitchen has been furnished with high-end appliances, making sure that your stay here will be as comfortable as possible. One end of the kitchen compromises full-size glass doors, with views of the terrace and dining area and the sea beyond.

The recently built property has been designed to be environmentally friendly and manages to merge natural materials – such as wood and cork – with the manmade – cement and iron. The result is a very special structure which encompasses minimalism and style.

Outside, the private swimming pool is fed natural water by the nearby artificial lake. The terraced grounds have dining spaces where you can enjoy al fresco eating while taking in the stunning views of the sea.

When you are after some supplies, the nearest village is just a couple of kilometres away. Here you will find a charming fishing village, with bars, restaurants and shops. There’s also a 2km-long sandy beach for you to enjoy, where you can paddle, snorkel, hire a pedal boat and play beach volleyball. Beyond the beach is a pine forest, offering picnic tables and cooling shade for you relax in.

A little further inland, you will find Scicli (11km), a UNESCO-listed town in a scenic location. It is an ancient town and here you will be able to explore a baroque palace, a cave settlement only abandoned in the 1950s, and stroll along Via Mormina Penna, a good example of a late baroque street.

Villa Nouvel is neatly nestled in the Sicilian countryside, with views of carob and olive trees in the near distance. The sea is clearly visible from many aspects of the property, thus giving you the peace and tranquillity that you might desire.

Just over 2km away is the nearest village, which as well as offering shops, bars and restaurants, also has 2km of beach for you to enjoy. Here you can enjoy activities such as snorkelling and beach volleyball, plus hire a pedal boat if you want to explore the area by water. Just behind the beach is a pine forest, which offers shady spots for picnics.

The city of Modica is 18km drive away, and here you can explore the maze of streets, lined with baroque buildings typical of the region. A UNESCO-listed city, it is known for its food, and in particular its chocolate! There’s even a museum dedicated to the sweet treat. The city also has a number of impressive churches, including two baroque cathedrals. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from in the city, suiting all budgets. A short trip away from Modica is the Cava d’Ispica, an archaeological park where you can find ancient cave dwellings and burial sites carved into the mountain.

One hour’s drive away is Syracuse, a thriving town which is an exciting place to visit. The markets are bustling with activity, where traders sell spiky sea urchins and enormous aubergines. There are magnificent cathedrals and archaeological ruins to investigate too.

San Nicolo Cathedral is a stunning baroque-style building which dominates the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Noto. Here you will find plenty of other architectural splendours, so much so that it is sometimes known as the capital of baroque.

If you want to get out into nature, a trip to the Vendicari Reserve is recommended. As well as breathtaking views of the clear sea, there are long sandy beaches, observation huts to view the flamingos and herons, plus archaeological spots where you can see cave paintings and engravings.

Sicily is a great destination for a family friendly holiday. The beaches are great, there’s lots to explore, and there are plenty of ice-cream parlours to frequent.

The beach at Marina di Modica is just a ten-minute drive from the villa and boasts a large bay with a sandy beach. Here you will also find family friendly restaurants and cafés where you can grab a snack. Nearby Pozzallo has another wide clean beach, with fine sand and clear blue shallow waters. It is surrounded by palm trees, adding to the relaxing ambience – why not sit back and relax while the children enjoy the seaside air.

Further afield, in Syracuse the children can explore Castello Maniace, a castle dating from medieval times. It’s a great place for an adventure, investigating the different parts of the castle and admiring the magnificent sea views.

For those with a sweet tooth, the Museo del Cioccolato di Modica – or chocolate museum – in Modica (18km) is a great place to find out about the history of the town’s chocolate. You’ll also see a collection of wonderful sculptures made out of cocoa.

Reviews

  • Wonderful place

    on 14/08/2023

    This is a beautiful, one of a kind property. We loved every minute of our stay. The pool is magnificent. The main deck in front of the kitchen is huge and provides ample space for reading a book on the sofa, to having dinner. So many thoughtful details - a covered parking area, trees trimmed to not disrupt the view, the beautiful pond. The kitchen is great, with ample amenities: a huge fridge and an enormous freezer. Fuzzing for perfection, the only things we missed, were a water cooker to make tea and a scale to weigh the ingredients to bake bread. The owners are wonderful and very helpful. We enjoyed trips to villages in the neighbourhood: Noto, Ragusa and Modica.

    We think that this is an excellent property for families with older children or three couples who prefer to have some privacy. The main house has one bedroom with bathroom. Outside the main house, there are two other separate bedrooms with bathroom (both having a separate entrance). No need to worry who has the better room, as all rooms and bathrooms are identical.

    We love to come back one day!

  • The most beautiful house

    on 04/02/2022

    Probably the most beautiful house I ever had the chance to experience. The owners (who are super kind) thought of every detail and created an organic, warm and very tasteful space. We also enjoyed yoga sessions on the terrace and a massage in the massage room at the villa. We left with lots of good memories and new inspiration!

  • Wonderful house

    on 06/11/2021

    Lovely hosts, very friendly, warm, relaxed an welcoming. Beautiful house, made from natural materials, just melting into the landscape. Equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. Just a quick 3 min drive down the Strada Provinciale to Sampieri where you find a small supermarket, very good Italian coffee, pastries and a beach club.

  • True paradise

    on 07/08/2021

    We are a family of four and spent one week in this beautiful villa. It was amazing. The owners have created a true paradise. We especially loved the Biopool - you cannot compare this kind of pool with a 'normal' pool. The water is free of chemicals, which makes it a pure pleasure to swim in. We hope to come back.

  • Much more than just a holiday house

    on 08/08/2020

    Villa Nouvel is much more than a holiday house, it is planned and built with attention to detail and high-quality materials. We had a great time resting on the veranda, swimming in the biopool, looking at the stars. Thank you to the owners for the warm welcome and all the tips they gave us. We had an amazing time in this beautiful place. All the small restaurants in the area are also very good and just a few minutes away by car. We would love to come back.
