Hong Kong Break: Staying in a Sicily Villa
Sicily is more than just a little island off the coast of Italy: it’s a culturally rich, historically abundant, scenic wonderland where the best vacations can be had. If you’ve been dreaming of a trip to Italy, then Sicily can be the perfect vacation destination for you. You can rent a villa in Sicily and have an incredible few days on one of the world’s most elegant and beautiful island.
Sicily doesn’t have the clear waters and white sand beaches of the Caribbean. What it does have is so much more. There are historical sites to visit, places where battles were fought, buildings were constructed centuries ago, and history was made. There is beautiful rugged scenery. There’s folklore, myths, and cultural stories that will keep you enthralled for hours. Best of all, there’s Sicilian food, which is as delicious as mainland Italian food, but with its own twist. Italian villas on Sicily are the perfect place for you and your family to head out and have adventures.
Villa Catalonia
Villa Catalonia is one of the foremost Italian villas in Sicily and one of the best places to stay should you ever stop over on the island. Villa Catalonia has been around since the 13th century, and yet after years of upkeep and recent renovations and restorations by the family, it’s still a wonderful place to live in.
The grounds of the villa stretch a long ways all around, and they boast gorgeous citrus groves. This Catalonia castle is led up to by a long driveway through the groves. This villa is really the pinnacle of elegance, with red carpets, majestic oak-arched doors, a private church, a large informal room for dining, and a 300 meter courtyard with lava-stone paving.
There are 6 bedrooms in the villa spread out across two wings, and singles, couples, or large groups can make the place their home if they want to rent a villa among the best in Sicily.
Villa Borghese
The Villa Borghese is another of the grand villas of Sicily. This villa is a little more modern, yet from the 15th century. It was originally a hunting lodge, and though now it looks completely different on the inside, much of the old architecture is intact on the outside.
This villa has a very antique look, and is perfect for anyone who wants to spend a few days in the lap of luxury. There are 4 bedrooms, each uniquely decorated and tastefully displayed, and you will be sure to have a blissful time while enjoying the Sicily weather and scenery.
