The sparkling Ionian Sea and the Mount Etna rising in the distance provide the perfect backdrop to Torre Archirafi, a delightful apartment housed in a beautifully restored villa. It sits on the charming stretch of coast between Riposto and Acireale, in a residential area on the edge of the small and quiet fishing village of Torre Archirafi. The apartment is on the first floor and is approached via its external staircase, allowing independent access from the rest of the villa which is occupied by the owner. It features bright, spacious and comfortable rooms tastefully appointed with functional furnishings. Outside the apartment, the two terraces overlooking the lush garden are ideal for alfresco dining or for whiling away the hours reading a book. Especially the partly reed-covered terrace offers a beautiful view of the sea and of its pebbly beach, which is easily reached on foot. Whereas the nearest sandy beach is in the close resort of Riposto. Torre Archirafi is also an excellent base for enjoying delicious wine and gastronomy tours and exploring the stunning nature, historical and artistic attractions of this area. For visitors who want to travel around, the mount Etna with its villages along the wine route is not the only great attraction - why not take a trip to the sights of Taormina, Aci Trezza and to the baroque pearls of Acireale, Catania, Syracuse and Ortigia.
