The two-person bedroom has a TV, large clothes cupboard and commode. ** The villa faces on a large patio with two magnificent 150-year-old palm trees. The right side looks out over Etna with its plume of smoke. A swimming pool with a diving board is located at the side of the house.

The Sicily region

Its artistic and natural beauty, its variety of flora and fauna, its evocative folklore, its genuine products and rich flavoured gastronomy are all the "Fragments of Sicily" that are masterfully blended within a deep sense of hospitality provided by a population toughened over the centuries by domination.

The object of attraction for the most demanding tourist who loves to witness every corner, every artistic and architectural building, every manufactured item, every tradition and a piece of history to bring with them. . . a “Fragment of Sicily”.

The Taormina area

Visit TAORMINA, settled on a hill of the Monte Tauro. So much to do and see : top level art performances at the Greek theatre, several painting exhibitions held in local palazzi and churches, fine elegant shopping along the famous Corso Umberto with its classical music cafès and pastry shops.

RESTAURANTS! Enjoy the local Sicilian cuisine in several restaurants in the surroundings.

Guestbook for Villa Aurora

We had an excellent holiday in your villa in Francavilla. We enjoyed very much not only the geographical situation and the nice view of the house, but the large spaces including the comfortable living room, the well equipped kitchen and the well designed bedrooms have given us full satisfaction. And I have to mention the swimming pool which was the most frequented place during this hot Indian summer.
Thanks again for your kindness and hospitality we all save good memory of Sicily and its nice people.

Best regards,
Zoltán Andricsák

We woke up on the first day, enjoying the view on the valley and the quietness of the neighborhood. The house itself was on a good condition and is suitable for one big family or 2 smaller families. The rooms located on two floors were big enough to sleep and store all the belongings. There were 2(!) kitchens,one of them was a big one with for the people who really like to cook. Included also a real Italian Pizza oven heated by wood!There was also a large outdoor pool deep enough to dive and with enough water to keep the temperature cool during the daytime and warm in the night.There are quite a lot of activities you can do in and outside the house
and also in a region nearby, so the house is especially suitable for a longer stay and for those who really like to take some time off by staying on location instead of collecting all the points by visiting
every tourist attraction there is on the island. We especially enjoyed our own cooking in the house out of fresh
products from local stores and the superb fish choice from the coast helped by above mentioned pizza oven in the second kitchen to experience some authentic italian food and pizza experience!
And the wines.And of course, the weather
We are going back there!

Best Regards
Erik

"We enjoyed our week in Villa Aurora very much. It is a lovely house in a lovely quiet location. It has wide terraces with lots of room to sit in the shade or the sun and swim in the pool when it gets too hot. The views to the sea and to Mt Etna are great.

Nice property overlooking the village of francavilla di sicilia. Stunning view of the Alcantara Valley facing the sea and on one side the Etna. Very nice to retreat to the house and get away from crowds and heat to enjoy the large swimming pool and spacious patio/garden. But when it's cold & cloudy rather be by the sea as the sky seems more clear and the coast gets more sunshine. If it's the case one can find the villa to be a little far from Giardini Naxos which is approx 18km - 20mins drive. Historical village to visit nearby would be Castiglione di Sicilia which is by far more beautiful than Francavilla di Sicilia.
