Overview

Need to unwind? Try a holiday at Sea Gate, a seafront villa surrounded by broad glassless arches overlooking breathtaking sea views! Rising graciously on a hill, Sea Gate literally floats over an endless coast, stretching as far as eye can see. Here, Sicily unspoilt beauty shows all over the area while a weak sea breeze gently crests a white wave in a blue Mediterranean Sea swaying just in front. A hypnotizing sea flavour exhorts you to move forward, up to the headland, where sea views just get sensational. Beyond the promontory, a crystal sea meets a clear blue sky while a bright sun brings to light a lush grove underneath. All around, a beautiful Mediterranean garden merges exquisitely with Sea Gate' stone façade as well as with numerous fanciful arches circling the villa: open windows overlooking heavenly scenarios right in front of your eyes! Ready for a revitalizing holiday?

Feedback from clients staying at Sea Gate

  • Maarten Hinloopen | October 2011

    Beautiful location, house is very clean and well kept. Nice Pool! Nice welcome and farewell by the friendly owner. (...) Service from SoloSicily was very good; we were informed about the arrival of the owner etc. In general I would recommend this property and your service.

  • F. Kevin | July 2011

    “Fabulous house and an even better view. We had Sea Gate for a week for our honeymoon in July 2011. We are quite young (late 20’s/early 30’s) and are used to staying in chic/designer hotels, but for this part of our honeymoon I wanted tranquility, privacy, an element of rustic Siciliy but till some high level of luxury. Sea Gate provided that. The views are stunning, the private pool is great, the setting is so peaceful and secluded. The house itself is very quaint but also has everything you could possibly want – it’s owned by a local architect (Signore Firetto) and it certainly shows. The owner was also very accomodating – he welcomed us to the villa with the biggest fruit platter I’ve ever seen - and also some other staples to get us through our first few days (local wines/pasta/water/fresh bread etc…) and he even humored me as I practiced my pigeon Italian. Also – one mention of his name to the local shop owner meant I was getting fresh basil and lemons straight out their personal garden and the local restaurants were falling over themselves to look after us. We also had the offer to use his speedboat but didn’t have time. All in all – a great time, great house and great hospitality”

    SoloSicily: “Very professional and a joy to work with. We organized our honeymoon in Sicily in June/July 2011 and from the outset SoloSicily were extremely helpful. They suggested properties and were very knowledgeable of every residence they had on their site. (...) All in all – a very professional outfit and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”
