Villa Susina | Where Sicilian Elegance Meets Bespoke Discovery
Giardini Naxos – Taormina | Sicily | Camisa Homes & Villas
Nestled on the sun-drenched hillside of Giardini Naxos, just a stone’s throw from the cinematic splendour of Taormina, Villa Susina is more than a private estate – it is a Sicilian daydream made real. Wrapped in the perfume of citrus blossoms and framed by postcard views of the Ionian Sea, this majestic residence offers an exclusive retreat where time slows, pleasures deepen, and every detail whispers timeless beauty.
A Home of Noble Proportions
Dating back to the early 1900s and recently restored to perfection, Villa Susina combines the grandeur of aristocratic Sicily with the comfort and elegance of contemporary design. The main house – a two-storey villa surrounded by verdant palms and lemon groves – is a tribute to traditional architecture, featuring original majolica floors, vaulted ceilings, and carved wood furnishings that evoke a sense of refined nostalgia.
From the sweeping staircase to the sunlit salons, every corner of the villa has been curated to honour its past while welcoming the present. An elegant interplay of antique pieces and modern accents creates an atmosphere of curated serenity. Whether you are gathering for an aperitivo in the garden or enjoying a slow breakfast on the terrace overlooking Mount Etna, the villa feels like a living postcard.
The property comprises a main villa and a dépendance, comfortably sleeping up to 14 guests across 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Every room is a microcosm of style, with neutral linens, vintage touches, and windows that frame nature like oil paintings. The master suite boasts a panoramic sea view terrace and en-suite with double vanities and a walk-in rainfall shower.
Outdoors: A Stage for Sicilian Living
The heart of Villa Susina beats strongest outdoors. The 3,000-square-metre estate is a lush Mediterranean theatre where bougainvillea climbs freely and pine trees provide poetic shade. A panoramic pool with infinity-edge design gazes out over the shimmering bay of Taormina, offering front-row seats to some of the most spectacular sunsets in Italy.
The poolside area is complete with sun loungers, umbrellas, an outdoor shower and a shaded pergola with a dining table — perfect for long, leisurely lunches or starlit dinners with friends. An outdoor BBQ and wood-fired oven elevate any meal into a Mediterranean feast, made even more magical with local produce curated by your private chef (upon request).
Lush gardens invite you to lose yourself in the scent of jasmine and orange blossom, while hidden corners of the estate are ideal for morning yoga, reading sessions or a nap in the hammock. As dusk falls, lanterns light up the paths and transform the villa into a dreamlike retreat worthy of cinema.
Location: Between Sea, Volcano and Myth
Villa Susina enjoys a privileged position between the sparkling waters of Giardini Naxos and the legendary town of Taormina – just 15 minutes away. Whether you’re wandering through the ancient Greek Theatre, shopping along Corso Umberto, or sipping wine in the piazza with a view of Mount Etna, the area offers a sublime mix of culture, history and indulgence.
The beaches of Isola Bella, Mazzarò and Spisone are just a short drive away, offering crystalline waters and stylish lidos. Meanwhile, the vineyards of Etna, the UNESCO baroque towns of the Val di Noto, and even boat tours to the Aeolian Islands await for easy day trips.
Catania airport is less than an hour’s drive, making arrivals smooth and departures bittersweet.
Camisa Essential | Your Bespoke Sicily
At Villa Susina, the holiday doesn’t begin at check-in — it begins with Camisa Essential, our signature collection of curated experiences that turn your stay into a personalised journey through Sicily’s soul.
From private chefs and sommeliers to off-the-map adventures and cultural immersions, each experience is designed to surprise, move and transform. A selection of bespoke highlights includes:
1. Etna Jeep Adventure with Winery Lunch
Ride through ancient lava flows and unspoiled trails on a private 4x4 tour of Mount Etna, Europe’s highest active volcano. After the thrills, enjoy a curated lunch with wine tasting at a boutique vineyard producing volcanic wines in a unique terroir. The view, the flavour, the silence – unforgettable.
2. Market to Table with Sicilian Nonna
Embark on a culinary journey starting at the colourful fish and produce markets of Catania, followed by a hands-on cooking class with a local Sicilian nonna in a private home. Learn the secrets of arancini, pasta alla Norma or cannoli – and share a meal made with love.
3. Taormina by Twilight – Private Insider’s Tour
Discover Taormina in a way few travellers do: with a local historian as your guide, stroll the cobbled alleys of the city at golden hour, learn about its legends, and end with a rooftop aperitivo and live mandolin performance. It’s romance, elevated.
4. The Aeolian Escape – Private Yacht to Panarea & Stromboli
Board your private yacht from Giardini Naxos and set sail to the Aeolian Islands. Swim in secret coves, explore whitewashed villages, and dine on fresh seafood in Panarea before witnessing the natural firework show of Stromboli’s volcanic eruptions under the stars.
5. In-Villa Spa Rituals
Let go of every tension with bespoke wellness treatments in the privacy of your suite or garden. From Etna stone massages to citrus-scented facials using organic Sicilian botanicals, our certified therapists will create a moment of deep renewal.
6. Private Concert & Dinner in the Garden
An unforgettable evening curated just for you: string quartet under the olive trees, candlelit Sicilian dinner, and the dulcet sounds of opera or acoustic jazz echoing through the garden. A soulful experience that elevates every special occasion.
