Frangimare

This luxurious holiday villa is found on the Aeolian Island of Salina, off the coast of Sicily. Salina really is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets, boasting luscious green landscapes, picturesque villages and gorgeous beaches, all relatively untouched by tourism. The accommodation perfectly complements its stunning surroundings and really is the perfect place to sit back, relax and take in the wonderful views. The whole villa is available to book exclusively, ideal for big groups wanting to celebrate a special occasion in style, or simply enjoy a well-earned holiday. The hosts strive to make your stay extra special, with complimentary breakfast each morning.

Frangimare blends traditional Sicilian style with sleek and modern design, offering a truly unique experience for guests. The villa consists of three private suites (Aria, Acqua and Terra) split across two floors and a communal living area, terrace and garden. Each suite sleeps up to four in two spacious double bedrooms, has two bathrooms, a cosy lounge and a living space with a small kitchenette. Bespoke artwork, colourful fabrics and premium Italian furnishings breathe personality into each room.

Aria and Acqua are on the top floor and have direct access to the terrace, where you can sunbathe in total privacy or relax with a cold drink and appreciate the views across the rooftops and out to the Tyrrhenian Sea. Terra is found on the lower floor, with access to the communal living area. This is a lovely space for the group to get together, with a comfy lounge, a fully equipped kitchen and dining room with seating for 12. You’ll also have access to your very own Aeolian porch (a great spot for breakfast), as well as a delightful Mediterranean garden and private infinity pool. The courtyard has ample parking space and electric scooters are available for guests to rent.

Salina is a fantastic holiday destination that offers a bit of something for everyone. Why not stroll through the peaceful village of Malfa, trek to the top of Monte Fossa delle Felci (and be rewarded with the best view on the island) or relax on one of the glorious beaches and take a plunge in the crystal-clear waters? The island is also a ‘hidden gem’ for great food and wine, its volcanic soil and freshwater springs are responsible for the famous Malvasia wine and world-renowned capers, which can be sampled at one of the many alfresco restaurants and cafes.
