Ever considered visiting Sicily in the spring?
Winter is officially gone and for Sicilians this means to start a new season of festivals and events, outdoor trips, early seaside walks to admire beautiful sunsets. Spring in Sicily is a lovely season: the mild climate allows locals and tourists to finally spend the day outside, enjoying the scents of Sicily and some fresh air while – good news! – it’s not too warm and, above all, cities are not so crowded as they are during the summer months.
We are happy to suggest you some of the best destinations to visit in Sicily in Spring:
Palermo, a shining example of Sicily’s multi-cultural soul: its monuments, ancient structures, historical neighborhoods, and traditions convey the island’s long and intriguing tale, from prehistory to the dazzling “Liberty” age at the end of the nineteenth century. Elegant houses and gardens, vibrant markets selling the freshest fruits, vegetables, and seafood, incredible Norman and Arabic architecture and mosaics, typical small lanes in the city center and their atmosphere in the evening light, delectable local cuisine. If you stay in one of our villas in Palermo, you will be just a few minutes away from the beautiful city centre.
Politeama Suite: your urban sanctuary in Palermo’s vibrant core. Just steps from Teatro Politeama, indulge in a haven where lush greens and a chromatic tub form a hidden garden of serenity. Immerse in the luxury of our 330m², recently revamped space, where history meets modern elegance for an enchanting Sicilian escape.
If what you ask from a holiday is to relax a little, surroundend by the nature, without renouncing to city’s advantages, then Villa Angela Blu can be the perfect solution. Located between Palermo city centre and the pittoresque fishing village of Porticello, Villa Angela Blu is an enchanting luxury villa with a privileged position that allows you to reach in a few minutes both Palermo’s city centre and in which to have a one-of-a-kind and enjoyable stay, nestled in greenery, overlooking the sea, with exclusive access to a delightful beach.
Moving to West, there’s another pretty and famous centre that surely worth a visit: we’re talking about Marsala, located in the province of Trapani. Marsala is one of Sicily’s most populated town, best known for its Marsala Wine. This sunny, lively city has a wide cultural and natural heritage and the springtime is the ideal season to discover the beauty of this territory. There we picked a lot of our holiday villas in Sicily, such as Villa Ladybird , with a panoramic view of the entire Aegadian archipelago. The location is fantastic, offering complete solitude and quiet while remaining conveniently close to both the beach and the city center of Marsala. The home has two levels and can house up to 12 people. It blends very nicely with the surroundings, following the slope down to the beach. Villa Ladybird features a vast and attractive Mediterranean-style garden with a private saltwater pool with an infinity edge, as well as a modern minimalist design with high-end finishes.
Villa Stella Discover the charm of Villa Stella in Sicily’s Marsala region. This luxurious villa, with 4 elegant bedrooms and a stunning pool, offers panoramic views of Erice’s hills and the sea. It’s an ideal blend of relaxation and exploration, located just minutes from the sea and Marsala’s historic center. With Palermo and Trapani within driving distance, Villa Stella is your gateway to experiencing the authentic Sicilian lifestyle in comfort and style.
Syracuse and the Sicilian South-East region are the final stop on our “spring journey.” Syracuse is a place where mythology, tales, and old customs collide, displaying Sicily’s delicate cultural mix. Sicily’s southeast is the island’s top lure, with Magna Graecia’s most stunning ancient metropolis and some of Italy’s most glorious baroque cities.
The temptation is to stay in our charming villas in Syracuse and Noto area, sipping granite (flavored ice) in dramatic piazzas and sunbathing on the beachfront, but if you can pull yourself away, you’ll find yourself in love with Sicily’s most gorgeous towns. Noto, Modica, and Ragusa take first place, each offering a feast of architectural flourishes and gastronomic delights, including ice cream in Noto, chocolate in Modica, and one of Sicily’s greatest restaurants in Ragusa.
Villa Shanti is an ideal base for exploring the Syracuse area; a delightful villa just a few kilometers from Syracuse’s center, with an exotic and mystical ambiance enhanced by the stunning volcanic stone swimming pool (heated and with hydromassage corner) nestled in a fantastic Mediterranean garden.
Another charming villa of our catalogue is surely Casale dell’Ulivo: a lovely, tastefully decorated villa set in the countryside of Syracuse, surrounded by a garden with typical Mediterranean plants and flowers. The main entrance to the farmhouse is reached via a driveway lined with lemon trees, which are distinctive of the area, and lush vegetation.
