The villa is surrounded by a mediterranean garden of about 2000 sq. m. with a lawn, sweet-smelling and flowering plants, olive trees and palm trees.
This is a manor house from the end of the 1800s in mediterranean style with high-quality period furniture. The dining room holds a collection of plates showing the history of 19th century Italy.

There is not much to add about Taormina and its beautiful coastline that has not already been said and written by the many travellers that have come here since the beginning of the 1700s and who have defined it the pearl of the Mediterranean.
Along the coastline that is one of the most beautiful and famous in the world you follow a long series of large coves and pretty inlets alternating with the beaches at Spisone, Mazzarò, and capo Sant'Andrea.
