All the News from Villatravellers in 2024
Take a look at what 2024 has meant for Villatravellers. From new villas, to new experiences, it has been a great year in Sicily and Puglia.
2024: What a Year for Villatravellers
2024 has been quite a year for Villatravellers. We have continued to provide beautiful villas in Sicily for guests from all over the world, creating unforgettable experiences for them in outstanding surroundings. What’s more, we’ve opened up a whole new Italian region to be enjoyed in the Villatravellers way with our new collection of villas in Puglia for 2024. This new catalogue of incredible villas has been a hit with our guests, and we have enjoyed sharing out local insight about this marvellous southern-Italian region with you all.
New Villas Galore
We’re always on the search for new villas in Sicily, and now we have added Puglia to our collection, we’ve been working hard to find the most beautiful Puglian villas to our catalogue. In 2024 we have added 20 villas in Puglia to our range, and what special villas they are! They all have the Villatravellers stamp of approval, with high-quality features, stunning design, and enviable locations in some of the most sought-after areas in Puglia. From luxury villas in south Puglia, to villas for families, there’s something for everyone.
From restored trulli that exude traditional Puglian style to masterfully recent constructions that will leave you speechless, our villas in Puglia are out of this world. Some of our villas are close to achingly beautiful towns such as Ostuni with its white town centre, near Lecce which is famous for its Baroque beauty, or close to UNESCO-recognised Alberebello full of trulli.
Our catalogue of villas in Sicily always continues to grow. Our most recent additions, Elysium and Reale are incredible luxury villas in Sicily with modern style and sea views, one looking over the Ionian Sea from Capo d’Orlando, whilst the other looks over the Tyrrhenian Sea with a stylish location in Letojanni, near Taormina. What could be better than spending time at one of these villas with those exceptional sea views. Palmita is another new villa in Brolo, north Sicily, that has so much space, a wonderful garden, and is within walking distance to the beach. Our villas in Sicily have shone for years thanks to their amazing style and beauty, and in 2024, this is no different.
Unforgettable Extra Experiences
Of course, we also offer a fantastic range of exclusive experiences in Sicily that add something really special to any holiday on the island. From boat trips, to wine tours, including foodie experiences, and private tours, there’s something for everyone. Our guests particularly love the in-villa cook services we offer, where a local cook comes to the villa to prepare a traditional meal. Out Mount Etna Jeep tour is also very popular for guests of all ages; it’s the best way to visit the volcano and learn all is fascinating secrets.
For pure relaxation a boat trip along the south-west coast is always a great choice where you can swim in clear waters and feel your cares disappear. Our range of extra experiences make any holiday even more memorable.
Our App Makes Everything Easier
The Villatravellers App has gone from strength to strength in 2024. Developed with our guests in mind, our App is there along every step of the way. All booking details are easy to find on the App, as well as a villa guidebook with useful information about the villa, and an interactive map of the surrounding area. Our Customer Service team can also be contacted 24/7 via the App for any advice or help needed. Extra experiences can also be booked in just a few clicks through the app as well! The Sicilian Handbook is full of helpful hints about the island and its culture. Plus, you can share all these important details with other members of your party if they get the App too! The App has helped countless guests to Sicily in 2024, it’s a great addition to our service!
Villatravellers in the News
It’s always great to see Villatravellers in the press, and there have been some great articles in 2024 that include our villas. Il Borgo del Barone and Casale degli Erei were written about in Luxury Lifestyle Magazine, as picture-perfect locations to enjoy an authentic break away from it all in Sicily. Brezza di Zefiro was features in Glass Magazine, who were bowled over by the villa’s extraordinary sea views. The Independent featured our catalogue of villas in Sicily as great choices for any holiday, as did The Telegraph with a focus on foodie experiences. Perla Nera was also picked up by House and Garden as one of the best villas in Sicily, whilst La Ferla was home-from-home for Sainsbury’s Magazine. Articles such as these – and the others from 2024 and before – are a great way for guests to read about what a holiday with Villatravellers can be like.
Memories from 2024
We always want our guests to have the best holiday possible, and this has been the case in 2024 as well. Feedback is important to us, and we love getting great reviews following an unforgettable holiday. We also know the value of feedback for anyone looking to book an upcoming holiday. Here are a few highlights from our 2024 reviews that wonderfully sum up the Villatravellers experience.
We had a wonderful week at Faro di Brucoli. The villa is visually stunning and is surrounded by water on 3 sides, providing beautiful views of the sea and Mt. Etna as well. The town of Brucoli is charming and has all one needs....great restaurants, market, butcher, coffee shop, etc... The staff was so kind and responsive to our needs. We will certainly return!

We absolutely loved our villa Respiro in Sicily. It was one of the best villas we have ever stayed in. The entire villa was so well maintained. The views are literally breathtaking. The grounds of Respiro are gorgeous as well. We were so impressed with VillaTravellers and Anna our local representative was awesome. I HIGHLY recommend this villa. We can't wait to go back!

Villa Reale has all you need for a relaxing holiday. The outside space is amazing, with plenty of room and the most beautiful pool. The second kitchen was super useful for outdoor eating. As an interior designer I could see how much thought and effort had been put in to the design, with lots of special touches. Veronica, our villa rep, was so friendly and helpful.
