Area Plemmirio

The Apollonion villa is situated within the stunning Plemmirio Marine Protected Reserve, a natural area of exceptional beauty overlooking the Ionian Sea. Here, the crystal-clear waters and vibrant underwater life create an ideal setting for swimming, snorkeling, and diving enthusiasts. The landscape is characteristically Mediterranean, featuring rugged coastlines, the scents of wild shrubbery, and a tranquility that encourages relaxation.

Despite its natural surroundings, the villa benefits from a convenient location: public transport is easily accessible on foot, and the main beaches and coves are just a short distance away. A tennis court can be reached in about a 15-minute walk, while the historic center of Ortigia, with its baroque squares, the Cathedral, local markets, traditional restaurants, and seaside sunsets, is only 5 km away.

This area is perfect for those seeking a vacation that combines nature, culture, and good food, away from mass tourism yet close to all amenities. The presence of stables with thoroughbred horses on the property adds a touch of rural charm to the surroundings, making the stay even more enchanting and in harmony with nature.
