Set amidst olive groves in the countryside near Ragusa in southeast Sicily, Villa Uliva is an elegant historic villa that beautifully combines traditional charm with modern comfort. Originally a late 18th-century rural estate, the property has been thoughtfully restored into a spacious and refined holiday home, accommodating up to 12 guests across six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, making it ideal for families or groups travelling together.
The interiors are generous and welcoming, designed for both relaxation and sociable living. On the ground floor, a spacious entrance hall leads into a comfortable living room, a TV lounge with fireplace, and a home bar area. A large sitting and dining space provides the perfect setting for shared meals, while the fully equipped kitchen and pantry cater easily to self-catering stays. Several bedroom suites on this level feature their own sitting areas, kitchenettes, walk-in wardrobes and stylish en-suite bathrooms, offering added privacy and flexibility. Additional bedrooms are located on the first floor, each well-proportioned and finished with care.
Outside, Villa Uliva is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and terraces designed to embrace Sicily’s warm climate. The private swimming pool sits within a sun-soaked lawned area, while shaded terraces, a traditional courtyard and covered loggia provide idyllic spaces for al-fresco dining, relaxing with a book or enjoying the peaceful rural views.
Modern amenities including air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, parking and barbecue facilities ensure a comfortable stay, while the villa’s authentic character and tranquil setting make Villa Uliva a superb base for discovering the culture, cuisine and landscapes of southeastern Sicily.
