Masseria Costanza — Sicily, Italy

Set among the lemon groves of the Vendicari Nature Reserve in southeast Sicily, Masseria Constanza is at an exceptional vantage point for views of the bucolic landscape and turquoise Mediterranean Sea. The recently restored six-room villa maintains its original farmhouse features: bare stone walls, arched entryways and sleepy courtyards. The new interior design provides contrast with sleek, modern furniture, creating an atmosphere that's as cool as it is calming. For those uninterested in lazing by the pool, Vendicari provides an alluring medley of lagoons, sand dunes, rocky coastlines and uninhabited sandy beaches - the perfect seaside walk with only the waves, birds and wind for company.
