Villa Eden – Two seaside holiday apartments near Marzamemi

A garden Eden in Sicily´s authentic south

The name of the accommodation sounds like a promise of what awaits you at San Lorenzo near Marzamemi. Villa Eden is a gem of elegance and style and found at one of the island’s most beautiful coastal sections. From the two cozy apartments and the terraces your gaze falls upon the azure colored sea.

Villa Eden is located behind Villa Baia Marina, another villa of the owner. The two houses are, however, positioned in such a way as to guarantee sea view from all the apartments.

A small bathing bay below the two houses is a mere 200 m off. That is where the guests of Villa Eden and Villa Baia Marina find a private property shaded by sun sails at their disposal. A spot with sun lounger and deck chairs is reserved for each accommodation unit.

The gently sloping, long sandy beach of San Lorenzo with Lido Agua Beach is about 400 m off.

Villa Eden is only 3 km from the picturesque fishing village of Marzamemi, where the locals meet in the wonderful piazza "to see and to be seen". Around the piazza you find fancy bars alternating with restaurants and small boutiques.

Two tasteful apartments under palm trees

A separate, private path lined by terracotta colored planters runs up to each of the two holiday apartments.

Holiday apartment no. 3

Apartment no. 3 is located to the left, when facing the sea. The lovely apartment accommodates up to four persons, with sleeping facilities in one bedroom with double and single bed and on a sofa bed in the living area. It includes the comfort of two bathrooms, one with shower, WC and bidet, the other with shower and WC. Finally there is the combined kitchen and living-dining room, from where you enjoy a view of the sea while dining or relaxing.

Holiday apartment no. 4

Next-door apartment no. 4 is laid out for 4 persons, too. The bedroom is furnished with a double and a single bed and there is a sofa bed in the cozy combined kitchen and living-ding room. From the latter as well as from the adjoining terrace you can enjoy the view of the sea. This apartment has got one bathroom with shower, WC and bidet.

Furnishing of each apartment includes TV, WiFi, air conditioning with heating system, washing machine in the outdoor area, gas stove, oven, refrigerator, coffee machine and water boiler as well as hair dryer in the bathroom.

Larger groups, families as well as friends might rent both apartments (if available). The connecting door between the terraces could then be opened.

Outdoor area with a touch of the Caribbean

Palm trees of imposing heights and a well-maintained lawn characterize the outdoor area of Villa Eden, which is surrounded by a waist-high sandstone wall.

Each apartment includes a shaded terrace as well as a private plot of garden, a sun shade sail, loungers and garden furniture.

The outdoor shower (also warm water) is very convenient, e.g. to wash the sand off your feet after returning from the beach.  

Each apartment comes with a reserved parking space on the fenced premises.

Surroundings of Villa Eden

At the long, gently sloping sandy beach of San Lorenzo, you find both free sections as well as sections with service.

Marzamemi, but also not too far off Noto with their bars, restaurants and shops are nice places to stroll about in the evening and to enjoy the dishes of fresh fish and/or regional delicacies served at the restaurants.

If you love wine, do try „Cantina Milazzo“, a white wine of organic quality, which you can buy, amongst others, at Marzamemi and then savor on your terrace.

Whether you love nature or culture or both, in the nearer surroundings of San Lorenzo you are sure to get your money’s worth. Nature reserve Oasi Vendicari, which is well-known for its richness and diversity of species, borders on the town of San Lorenzo. Magnificent Baroque towns such as Noto and Syracuse are within a driving distance of about 10 and 30 minutes, respectively.
