Casa Vendicari

The modern design of this wonderful house, perfectly combined with in the natural green surroundings of the Island makes this house the ideal family holiday destination.

Casa Vendicari is a newly built holiday villa for 12 guests just outside the beautiful baroque town of Noto, very close to be best beaches of the Island.

Just over a mile from the sea on several acres of naural farm land, this holiday home, designed by a London based Italian architect, is the epitome of simple elegance. Gently adjusting to the sloping site, the house is designed entirely in dedication to the landscape, with a constant exchange between indoor and outdoor space.

Composed of geometric volumes, linked by towers inspired by antique middle eastern wind catchers, all spaces are organized around an internal courtyard that unites each area of the house to its center, resembling the traditional Sicilian farmhouses of the past.

The rooms and the views line up in a sequence of spaces and colors creating a dynamic and harmonious relationship with the setting. Overlooking 360 degree views on the countryside, the house celebrates the sounds, colors and pure scents of Sicily.
