Wish sicily: new villa specialist launches in Sicily

Brand new to the ever-expanding Sicily villa rental market, with a choice of nearly 200 properties, Wish Sicily offers villas and apartments throughout coastal and rural Sicily, and on several of its offshore islands. The company guarantees customers the best price and a user-friendly booking system with direct contact with the property owner.

Choose from an extensive range of properties, from city centre apartments, beachfront villas and large countryside estates; and from traditional family holiday homes to über-chic luxurious villas.

Sample properties:

Rural retreats: Stay in Villa Le Edicole, a masseria with private pool encircled by traditional dry stone walls and set amidst the natural parkland of south east Sicily. Ragusa and the Vendicari Nature Reserve are close by.   The five-bedroom property’s very stylish interior is characterised by solid exposed brick walls and arches, polished floors and masses of rural charm.

Prices: A week at Villa Le Edicole starts at £2.304 (sleeps 11).

Family budget villa: Keep the costs down on a family holiday in Sicily by staying in Green Villa, a modern villa for six close to the stylish seaside resort of Mondello, near Palermo. Budget, but by no means basic, the air-conditioned villa has a large garden with a lawn and small children’s play area, overlooked by a terrace furnished with an outdoor kitchen, dining and sitting area. The interior is bright and spacious with a modern contemporary feel and a candyfloss pink bedroom for the girls.

Prices: A week at Green Villa starts at £659 (sleeps 6).

Seafront villa: Live the dream in this glorious sea-facing 3-bedroom villa on the outskirts of Acireale on the east coast of Sicily. A huge wraparound terrace that looks straight out over the water has a dining table and a separate seating area and is accessed via French doors from the elegantly-furnished living room. Inside, the rooms are chic and dazzlingly white, dotted with quirky original ornaments.

Prices: A week at Casa Sulle Onde starts at £1.412 (sleeps 6)

Classic with a modern twist: Be prepared for a few surprises at the cleverly refurbished Villa Luna. A glass-floored dining room looks straight down into the vaulted stone-walled wellness area with Jacuzzi and sauna while an ‘outside’ living room, built within the original courtyard walls, has a retractable roof for star-gazing on summer nights.   Situated on the outskirts of the Baroque town of Scicli in South East Sicily, the villa has an attractive garden with pool.

Prices: A week at Villa Luna starts at £1.725 (sleeps 8).

City slickers: Grab a short break in Palermo or Modica. The Hortus Modica Sicily Hortus Suites in Modica is a stunningly-converted 16th century building close to the town’s magnificent San Giorgio cathedral. Unique bedroom features include a round bed and lava stone bath, fireplaces and a private terrace with views over the cathedral, and the pretty garden has a plunge pool. A spa with heated pool, steam room and massage stone bed is scheduled for completion in summer 2015.

Prices start at £275 (sleeps 6) per night.
