Description
Property Summary
Nestled on the south-eastern coast of Sicily, Villa Majoli is an exceptional vacation rental set in the heart of the Val di Noto, a region celebrated for its magnificent Baroque architecture and the extraordinary richness of its indigenous crops. Positioned just 20 minutes from the centre of Noto, Italy, this remarkable property offers an elevated vantage point from which the sweeping panoramic views of the Vendicari Nature Reserve unfold in all their splendour. The villa has been conceived as a seamless dialogue between architecture and landscape, where the interiors and exteriors flow together in perfect harmony. Great attention to detail defines every corner of the property, with local artists and craftsmen having contributed to its refined aesthetic. Bright, spacious rooms are illuminated by large French windows that open directly onto the terraces, inviting the surrounding natural beauty inside. Throughout the estate, guests benefit from high-speed Internet WiFi connectivity, ensuring that comfort and convenience are never compromised. The generous yard, designed by landscape architect Ivan Gallo, follows the natural undulation of the terrain in total osmosis with the views of the reserve, creating an outdoor environment of rare elegance and tranquillity.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Majoli are a true celebration of the Sicilian landscape, designed with exceptional care and artistry. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a driveway bordered by orange trees, followed by an imposing staircase in light-coloured stone where real cacti alternate with original works of art. Surrounding the house is a large furnished terrace with a sitting area beneath a canopy, offering shade and comfort during warm days. On the opposite side of the terrace, a second living area features masonry sofas and is directly accessible from one of the double bedrooms. Romantic paths wind up a hill through evergreens and Mediterranean scrub, leading to a dining area shaded by reeds, complete with an outdoor kitchen, a large brick barbecue, and a generous wooden table with long benches. At the end of this path, a masonry living area provides a breathtaking view over the Vendicari marsh. Steps bordered by fragrant rosemary descend to the lower level of the garden, where the pool area awaits. The park also features a cactus garden and a decorative pond, though caution is advised around the pond when children are present. Please be aware that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, meaning that the flowering and the colours of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The centrepiece of the outdoor area is the magnificent non-heated infinity pool, located in a secluded position approximately 50 metres from the villa and not visible from the main building. Reached by descending a flight of 15 steps to a lower level of the garden, this rectangular pool measures 16 x 4 metres, with a depth ranging from 1.20 to 1.80 metres. It is lined in PVC with a border in light-coloured local stone, and the surrounding teak wood flooring provides ample space for relaxation, furnished with deckchairs and sunbeds beneath a bamboo cover. The pool is equipped with lighting both inside and outside, allowing it to be enjoyed during the evening hours as well. It remains open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October. Adjacent to the pool, a changing room with hot-water showers and a bathroom ensures full comfort, and a small air-conditioned gym equipped with 2 exercise bikes and a multi-purpose bench is also located nearby.
Unit Layout
Villa Majoli is a spacious and elegantly appointed property spread across 2 floors, designed to accommodate up to 9 guests across 5 beautifully furnished bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. On the ground floor, an antique wooden door opens onto the main entrance, which leads to a corridor and a bright informal living room characterised by a comfortable sitting area with sofas and a rich bookcase, as well as a dining area with large windows overlooking the exterior. The dining area connects directly to the kitchen, which can also be accessed from the corridor, facilitating a natural and fluid flow through the space. The kitchen carries a traditional flavour, defined by a lacquered terracotta worktop, a vintage sideboard, and a central table. Also on the ground floor is a formal dining room that opens onto a terrace, and a second living room with double windows overlooking the beautiful garden. The ground floor accommodates 3 bedrooms in total: 1 small single bedroom served by a private bathroom, and 2 double bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom, wardrobe, and private access to the outside. On the upper floor, 2 further comfortable and elegant double bedrooms are each appointed with an ensuite bathroom, a wardrobe, and a private terrace offering views of the countryside and the Vendicari marsh. All 5 bathrooms are lined with the classic majolica tiles crafted by master ceramist Nicolò Giuliano of Monreale, and are each equipped with double basins, large showers, and skylights that bathe the spaces in natural light.
Amenities Included
Villa Majoli is fully air-conditioned throughout, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate during the warm Sicilian months, and heating is also available for cooler periods. The well-equipped kitchen features a dishwasher among its appliances, making meal preparation and clean-up a seamless experience. Each of the 4 double bedrooms enjoys direct access to its own private outdoor area, functioning as a private patio that extends the living space into the natural surroundings. Entertainment is well catered for with satellite TV available within the property. The villa operates a pets-welcome policy, subject to prior authorisation from the owner, making it a suitable choice for guests travelling with animals. The combination of these amenities, set within a property of such architectural and natural distinction, ensures that every aspect of your stay is attended to with care and thoughtfulness.
