Vista Alcantara Mountain Wellness Retreat

With its breathtaking vistas overlooking the majestic Mount Etna and the picturesque Alcantara Valley, including the renowned Gole dell’Alcantara, Villa Valview offers an unparalleled setting for inspiration and relaxation.

Perched above the charming village of Motta Camastra, immortalized in the cinematic masterpiece ‘The Godfather,’ Villa Valview invites you to step into a world where the rich tapestry of Sicilian culture meets the timeless allure of nature. Come, join us in this journey of discovery, where every moment is a celebration of life’s simple joys.

Villa Valview is nestled within nearly 15,000 square meters of permaculture landscapes (still a work in progress). Here, guests are not just visitors but participants in our agricultural journey, invited to immerse themselves in the vibrant rhythms of sustainable living.

Capture the essence of Sicily’s beauty through your lens, canvas, or pen, as you indulge in moments of serenity and creative expression. Whether it’s painting the vibrant hues of the sunset, penning down your thoughts amidst the tranquility of nature, or simply joining me in my meditation practices in the embrace of panoramic views, Villa Valview provides the perfect sanctuary for your artistic and spiritual endeavours.

The property is currently being renovated, so you will see me painting and decorating. If you’re handy with a paintbrush, please feel free to join in.

There are currently 5 bedrooms available at the villa.

On the first floor there is:

– 1 x triple room with a private terrace and a stunning view over Mount Etna and the Alcantara Valley all the way down to the sea.

– 1 x twin room with a private terrace and a stunning view over Mount Etna and over the Alcantara Valley.

– 1 x twin room with an extra sofa bed, a private terrace and a stunning view over Montagna Grande.

Each bedroom has an assigned private bathroom outside the rooms.

On the ground floor:

– 1 x Twin room with a view over Mount Etna.

– 1 x Small double room with a sea view and a view over Mount Venera.

The two bedrooms on the ground floor share a bathroom.

I live on-site with my dogs. So, guests do not have completely exclusive use of the villa.
