Description
General
Picture it if you will – by day, a scene of huge misty horizons, of lush slopes, carpeted with green plant exotica, that converge in a long undulating white line with a vast Ionian blue; to our distant left orange and lemon scented Taormina, and behind us the tell-tale smoky white plume of Etna. By night, the twinkling lights of stars, in their milky millions, emblazoned across an infinite navy-blue sky. This panorama alone is reason enough to book Villa Gelso Bianco – its terrace is our gorgeous grandstand! A detached single-level house with private garden and loggia with outside eating area, barbecue and wood-burning oven, we are two kilometres from the shops, bars and restaurants of Nunziata. Mascali however is the nearest main town with more essential banks and chemists.

Location
Sea swimming on the Riviera of the Cyclops just off Acireale is worth trying or, nearer home, the beaches near Riposto are just 8 kilometres away. Private entrance. Ample parking. Fully furnished three-sided terrace.
