Ideally situated for a week of sun and sand, Villa Marea is a good value family villa, with direct access to the very child-friendly sandy beach at Santa Maria del Focallo in south east Sicily.
The villa is perfect for a family with young children who will love the vast sweep of sand and gently shelving water. The beach resort of Pozzallo, which is around 10 minutes away by car, has a Blue Flag beach and traditional beachfront promenade, in addition to a good selection of shops, pizzerias and restaurants. Ispica, and the other baroque towns of the Val di Noto, are all within an hour’s drive of the villa.
The villa has a large garden, framed by towering palm trees and overlooked by an attractive covered veranda for al fresco dining. A second outdoor dining area provides an alternative eating area, with a barbecue, and the garden also has an enclosed newly-built private heated pool, mini-spa area, with heated Jacuzzi and sauna.
The interiors are simply furnished but with plenty of space for a family holiday. The kitchen is well-equipped, with a dishwasher and washing machine, and leads off from the living room. There are three bedrooms (two doubles, one twin) and three modern bathrooms on the ground floor. A double, a twin, a bathroom with shower and TV corner are located on the first floor.

The area
The beach of Santa Maria del Focallo, accessed directly from the villa, is a gorgeous stretch of sandy coastline, bordered by clear blue sea that is ideal for toddlers. In fact there are numerous good beach options for families along the coast, including those at Pozzallo and Sampieri.
The beaches at Pozzallo are extremely spacious, featuring honey-coloured soft sand and, in some cases, lido-style facilities. A seafront promenade is the idea spot for an evening passeggiata – accompanied by a soft, melty gelato of course! The town has a good selection of restaurants, cafés and gelaterias. There is also an attractive main piazza, with several historic palazzi, but the beach is the main attraction.
Ispica (6km) is the nearest of the magnificent baroque towns of the Val di Noto, but the towns of Scicli, Noto, Modica and Ragusa are all within an hour’s drive and well worth the visit. On the east coast, the little fishing village of Marzamemi is a pleasant place for an evening stroll and dinner while the extraordinary Greek city of Syracuse is just over an hour away. For a completely different experience, head for the Cava d’Ispica, a 13-km canyon studded with thousands of natural caves and grottoes dating back to around 2000BC, and rock churches from the Byzantine period.

24-09-2021 -Vi disturbo soltanto per dirvi due parole riguardo alla vacanza appena trascorsa nella meravigliosa Sicilia e nella confortevole Villa Marea. È stata una bellissima vacanza. Grazie per i consigli e le istruzioni durante la scelta della Villa. Mi preme segnalarvi che la Sig.ra Rita è stata davvero disponibile e molto gentile, un ottimo punto di riferimento. Da parte mia e degli amici che erano con me, grazie. Siamo stati benissimo.

05-08-2020 -Amazing can’t recommend enough, we all loved it. The owner was fantastic. There was a welcome pack offered of wine, fruits breakfast products. The villa itself was everything we hoped for and more, the photos don’t do it complete justice. The equipment provided was awesome, and the Jacuzzi & pool were lovely after a long day on the beach. I can’t recommend this place and the service enough. You won’t be disappointed.

11-08-2019 -A lovely Villa in a great situation. We were a family of 2 Grandparents, 4 adults and five children aged 2-12 years and there was something for everyone. The kids loved the pool especially. Gaspare welcomed us on arrival and was readily available if we had any questions or problems. The beach is a stones throw away and is great. Away from all the commercial stuff with lots of local families and the sea is fantastic to swim in. There are a couple of convenience stores not far away and a larger supermarket about 10k away in Ispica. We had two great meals out at an Agriturismo about 10 mins drive inland. No menu - you just have what they have cooked on the day - good rustic food and plenty of it, at a very reasonable price. There are plenty of pizzarias etc not far away as well if that is what you want.
