The hottest last-minute summer holidays under £1000pp
Wish Sicily’s Aqua Turchina was in prime position in the Daily Mail’s weekend round-up of the hottest last-minute summer breaks for under £1000pp. A week’s holiday for up to 8 people at the seafront villa in Sicily was the first of 28 brilliant holiday ideas in the sunshine break article, with other holidays featured including Caribbean beach resorts, glamping in Istria and an all-inclusive holiday in Turkey.
Set in a sea-facing position just outside the village of Finale di Pollina on Sicily’s north coast, Aqua Turchina is the perfect choice for families or a group of friends looking for a sun and sand holiday. Featuring its own pool and with direct access to the beach from the end of the garden, you could easily while away the whole week just lounging in the sun or in the shade of the terrace. When you do want to explore some of Sicily’s sights, the lively resort of Cefalù, with its UNESCO Norman cathedral and attractive historic centre, is an easy 15-minute drive away. A little further afield, you can explore Palermo’s vibrant markets and street food scene, and the remarkable cathedral at Monreale.
Seven nights at Aqua Turchina start at £2,167 this summer, including a 20% discount throughout the month of June. Or choose from other nearby properties, each with their own pool and direct beach access, including Villa Carlotta, Casa Turchina and Casa dei Nomadi.
