What does The Independent say about us?

Yesterday, a family from London arrived at Villa Santa Margherita — parents, children and two weeks at the villa.

At check-in, we asked our usual question:

“How did you find us?”

The father simply held out his phone.

On the screen was an article from The Independent. Villa Santa Margherita had been selected as one of just 12 hotels in Sicily, with a special mention as Best for families.

Almost a year and a half later, a few paragraphs had turned into plane tickets, children’s backpacks and fourteen nights with us.

So we became curious about what everyone else thought.

Booking.com — 9.5/10.
Expedia — 10/10.

With only five rooms, there are usually real faces and names we remember behind those numbers.

Apparently, some articles really do know how to book a room.

🍷 The Wines That Rarely Leave Sicily

Nero d'Avola, Grillo and Etna Rosso have long since earned their international reputation.

But the real story of Sicilian w**e begins where the familiar names end.

Carricante from the slopes of Mount Etna offers notes of lemon zest, sea salt and cool volcanic smoke.

Frappato from Vittoria brings wild strawberries, pomegranate, rose petals and white pepper. Together with Nero d'Avola, it creates Cerasuolo di Vittoria — Sicily's only DOCG w**e.

Then come the island's quieter treasures: almond-scented Catarratto, spicy Nerello Cappuccio and the dark, characterful Perricone.

And, of course, Malvasia delle Lipari from the Aeolian Islands — an extraordinary sweet w**e with aromas of dried apricot, orange zest, honey and Mediterranean herbs. One of Italy's most underrated dessert w**es.

These are w**es that are best understood where they are born: among the vineyards, beside the people who make them, around a table where nobody is watching the clock.

That is why visiting family w**eries is never just another stop on our journeys.

It is one of the most authentic ways to understand Sicily.

🌿 Villa Santa Margherita

You cannot understand Sicily by reading a w**e label.

🌿 The 2026 season is in full swing at Villa Santa Margherita.

The pool is open.
The gardens are green.
The rooms are ready.
And Sicily is already moving at its most beautiful summer rhythm.

Villa Santa Margherita is not a large hotel.

It is a historic Sicilian estate with only five rooms, surrounded by 11 hectares of olive groves, gardens and countryside, bordering a protected UNESCO nature area.

The villa dates back to the 19th century and was once connected to the estate of Bishop Rosso — a place where olive oil, w**e, land and hospitality were part of daily life.

That spirit is still here.

In the old stone walls.
In the shade of the olive trees.
In the taste of our St. Margherita DOP BIO olive oil.
In the silence after sunset.

At Villa Santa Margherita, you do not escape Sicily.

You enter it slowly.

Swim in the large panoramic pool.
Rest in the shade.
Play pétanque or badminton in the garden.
Take a bicycle ride through the countryside.
Or simply do nothing — beautifully.

Summer is softer here: more greenery, more air, more space to breathe.

Around us are Baroque towns, beaches, w**e roads and hidden corners of southeastern Sicily.

But the greatest luxury may be staying exactly where you are.

The pool.
The hills.
The olive trees.
The silence.

Come to Villa Santa Margherita.
Stay a little longer.
A few summer dates are still available.

🚜 While our master tractor driver Paolo expertly weaves his way through the olive groves, preparing the land for the next harvest, Villa Santa Margherita is already filling with the scents of the season.

The lemons glow in the sun 🍋, pomegranates shine among the trees ❤️, and the sea breeze drifts across the hills carrying the fragrance of wild Mediterranean herbs 🌿. Sicily seems to whisper: “Slow down. Breathe. Stay a little longer.”

Between our gastronomic tours, the gardens and vegetable plots continue their quiet rhythm. After all, the best Sicily begins with fertile soil and a deep connection to the land.

Soon, however, the silence will give way to arriving suitcases, shared tables, laughter, and glasses raised to new friendships 🥂.

December brings leisurely walks through magnificent Baroque towns, tastings of exceptional w**es 🍷, artisan cheeses 🧀, and our own St. Margherita DOP BIO olive oil 🌿. Evenings unfold slowly, like scenes from a beautiful Italian film ✨.

🎄 New Year's at Villa Santa Margherita means candlelit dinners, music, unforgettable conversations, and the rare feeling that time itself has slowed down.

✈️ Ready for Sicily?

Join us on 5–11 December and discover a different rhythm of life.

Only two places remain for our New Year's tour ✨

And if you still haven't ordered our St. Margherita DOP BIO olive oil... Paolo might be just a little disappointed. 😉🌿

🇮🇹🇮🇹 Our autumn tours have come to an end — and once again, Sicily worked its quiet magic.

Wonderful company, long laughter, old w**eries, and generous glasses of w**e shared among new friends 🍷.

In the evenings, Villa Santa Margherita smelled of citrus and olives. Glasses rang, conversations flowed, and life felt exactly as it should: unhurried, full-flavoured, without noise or pretence.

Even the sea refused to say goodbye to summer — our guests swam with the joy of children 🌊.

Now Sicily is waiting for winter.

A season when the island becomes especially beautiful: fewer visitors, soft sun, the scent of freshly baked pastries in the morning, good w**e in the evening, and a quiet sense of celebration in the air.

🎄 A few last places remain for December and New Year at Villa Santa Margherita.

Warm company, a festive dinner by our chef, music, candles — and that rare feeling of being exactly where you are meant to be ❤️

🌞 Sunshine, laughter and a game of pétanque — this is life at Villa Santa Margherita 🇮🇹

A chilled glass of w**e in one hand 🍷

A pétanque ball in the other.

Ancient olive trees casting shade across the courtyard 🌿

The panoramic pool shimmering nearby 🏊‍♀️

And nowhere you need to be.

Some of our guests arrive having never played pétanque before.

A few minutes later, they are laughing, competing, and celebrating every successful throw as if they had played for years.

That is the beauty of Sicily.

Simple pleasures become unforgettable moments.

Long afternoons. Good company. A slower rhythm.

The kind of memories that stay with you long after the journey is over ✨

Villa Santa Margherita ❤️

A place where summer is measured not by dates on a calendar, but by conversations, sunsets, and one more glass of w**e shared among friends.
