Villa Kasbah
Spectacularly located villa perched above a white
beach with views of the Aeolian Islands
Dominated by its breathtaking views of the sea, Kasbah is located right on the beach of Capo d’Orlando on the north coast of Sicily. It is one of those rare villas where guests can drift effortlessly from home to beach – what could be more magical than waking up and plunging straight into the sea for a pre-breakfast swim, then relaxing on the terrace over a lazy breakfast watching the light shift over the Aeolian Islands?
Comprehensively and recently refurbished, the villa is furnished in chic, contemporary Mediterranean style, drawing from a palette of cool blues, whites and acquas that harmonise perfectly with the immense sea- and skyscapes visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Kasbah is built on thee levels. On the ground florr there are two double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, the living area, dining area and a well-equipped and comfortably-sized kitchen. All the rooms open onto a furnished terrace – which for most of the year is the true focus of life in the house – with a long dining table of Caltagirone tiles, and little areas arranged for sunbathing, chatting or enjoying a pre-dinner drink as you watch the sun set. In traditional Mediterranean-Arab style there is even a fountain – the sound of running water is amazingly refreshing on a torrid Sicilian afternoon! From here you can walk directly onto the beach.
Steps lead up to the second floor, with another three bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, along with a panoramic spa with steam bath, sauna, Jacuzzi and solarium.
The third floor holds a loft-style suite with double bedroom (with ensuite bathroom), private terrace and a bedroom for children (with its own bathroom) – an ideal zone for a family.
