Villa Florinda
In Marina di Ragusa, where the wind carries the scent of the sea and prickly pears, Villa Florinda is hidden among the greenery of a Mediterranean garden and the discreet song of the Irminio River Reserve. It is a house that makes no noise, but leaves a lasting impression: clean lines, large windows, an infinity pool that reflects the Sicilian sky, and the quiet luxury of being able to reach the sea on foot in just a few minutes, along a path of sand and Mediterranean scrub.
Here you are not in just any “seaside resort”: you are in a rare, protected, intimate stretch of coastline, where nature still dictates the rhythm of the day. Villa Florinda is designed for those who want it all: privacy, contemporary comfort, proximity to the sea, and the opportunity to experience Sicily not as a spectator, but as a privileged guest.
A contemporary villa surrounded by greenery
Outside, approximately 2,000 square meters of Mediterranean garden envelop the house like an embrace: lawn, palm trees, oleanders, and shady corners where you can read, chat, or simply stop and watch the light change. On the east side, the star of the show is the 6x12 m infinity pool, with a water blade edge, a depth varying from 1.40 to 2 meters, and a comfortable “beach” where you can place sunbeds almost in the water.
Next to the pool, an outdoor shower and a bathroom with shower and washing machine transform the pool area into a small private club: here you can have lunch in your swimsuit, come back from the sea without going through the house, and wash your swimsuits and towels with the ease of having everything at your fingertips. On this side of the villa, time seems to slow down: swimming early in the morning, children playing on the lawn, aperitifs at sunset while the sky turns pink and orange.
Outdoor kitchen & barbecue: the realm of summer dinners
On the west side, Villa Florinda reveals its most convivial heart: a real equipped outdoor kitchen with stoves and a large barbecue, designed for those who love to cook - or have someone cook for them - in the open air. Opposite, a shaded veranda accommodates a table for eight people: this is where you can imagine long, leisurely dinners, with grilled fish, sweet tomato salads, candles, and bottles of chilled white wine.
This area is a natural extension of the house: start with an informal lunch by the pool, continue with an aperitif when you return from the sea, and finish with a dinner that can be simple and spontaneous or orchestrated down to the smallest detail by Camisa Essential services. In any case, the feeling is that of having a small private restaurant, with no set times, no dress code, and no other tables but your own.
Living room with windows: inside and outside communicate
The interiors of Villa Florinda are all on the ground floor, in a layout that is extremely functional for families and groups of friends. The large living room is the heart of the house: a spacious, bright room with large windows that open onto the garden and transform the greenery into an integral part of the décor.
A large corner sofa invites you to relax after a day at the beach, the TV allows you to enjoy a movie or a game, while the dining table for 6-8 people is perfect for breakfast or an indoor dinner on cooler evenings. The light enters generously, never intrusively, and creates the atmosphere typical of well-designed homes: you move naturally, without thinking, as if you had always been there.
Kitchen, the real star of home life
Next to the living room is the kitchen, spacious and organized like a real home kitchen, not a temporary holiday solution. There is a breakfast area, a corner with a sofa and TV for those who like to linger here while someone else prepares food, and a comfortable and accessible bathroom with shower.
It is a kitchen that invites you to bring the house to life: you slice, knead, make coffee, and share the worktop with children stealing olives from the plate. It is also the ideal space for the cooking classes organized by Camisa Essential, led by Chef Angela, who can transform this environment into a Sicilian cooking workshop where every ingredient has a story and every dish becomes a tale to take home.
Sleeping area: four bedrooms, up to 7+1 guests
The sleeping area of Villa Florinda is designed to accommodate 7+1 guests comfortably and efficiently. Here we find:
Two large and bright double bedrooms, one of which has a French window opening onto the garden, ideal for those who love to wake up and step outside barefoot onto the grass.
A twin room with two single beds, perfect for friends or children.
A single room, intimate and cozy.
In one of the two double bedrooms, it is possible to add an eighth bed, making the villa suitable for large families or mixed groups. There is a second bathroom with shower serving the sleeping area, so as not to create congestion when returning from the beach or before going out in the evening.
The rooms are generously proportioned, with natural light and simple but tasteful furnishings, leaving space for suitcases, books, and children's games. This is not a stage set: it is a home made to be lived in.
Terrace with sea view: your private belvedere
On the upper floor, there is a small two-room apartment that is not accessible to guests, but the real surprise is the outdoor terrace with sea view, accessible via an external staircase.
Here you will find a table with 4 chairs, a sofa, and two armchairs: it is the perfect place for an aperitif at sunset, for a nighttime chat under the stars, or for opening your laptop for a couple of hours in the morning when the rest of the house is still asleep.
From here, the view opens up: the green of the garden, the sea line in the distance, the light changing color throughout the day. It is a corner that immediately becomes someone's “favorite place” in the group—the one where you already know who you will find every morning or every evening.
Walking distance to the sea and the Irminio River Reserve
One of the greatest charms of Villa Florinda is its location: a quiet residential area of Marina di Ragusa, on the border of the Irminio River Nature Reserve.
From here, you can reach the sea on foot in just a few minutes, following a pedestrian path that crosses the Reserve: the destination is a small golden sandy beach, secluded and sheltered from the more crowded beaches.
The distance from the sea is about 400 meters: close enough to feel its presence, far enough away not to be disturbed by the noise. For those who love cycling, the villa is a small paradise: a short distance away is the cycle path that crosses the entire municipality of Marina di Ragusa, from the mouth of the Irminio to the Andrea Doria seafront, up to the new port and Santa Barbara. The bike tours organized by Camisa Essential allow you to discover this route in a guided way, with panoramic stops and gourmet breaks.
Villa Florinda x Camisa Essential: tailor-made experiences
Staying at Villa Florinda means having access to the experiential world of Camisa Essential, Camisa's concierge & DMC service. Not just a beautiful home, then, but a program of tailor-made experiences designed to make your stay memorable.
Chef in Villa – with Chef Angela
Thanks to the Chef in Villa service, the outdoor and indoor kitchens become the stage for a true private gastronomic experience. Chef Angela will work with you to create the menu that best suits your tastes, combining traditional Sicilian dishes, seasonal products, and specific requests (vegetarian, pescatarian, children's menus, theme nights). The service includes a flat fee for the service, plus the cost of fresh ingredients: all you have to do is sit down at the table and enjoy the evening. It is ideal for a welcome dinner, a birthday, an anniversary, or simply to treat yourself to a carefree evening.
Sicilian Cooking Class
For those who love to get their hands dirty, Camisa Essential organizes cooking classes lasting at least 3 hours, always led by Chef Angela. Together you will prepare a complete menu, which will then be served for lunch or dinner: fresh pasta, seafood main courses, stuffed vegetables, and traditional desserts. The cost starts at €180 and depends on the composition of the group and the menu chosen. This experience is designed for both adults and families with children who are curious to discover what goes into the dishes they love.
Yoga Experience in the villa
If you would like to include a moment of self-care and reflection in your vacation, Camisa Essential offers private yoga lessons in the villa, lasting 60-75 minutes, for groups of at least 3 participants. The sessions are tailored to the desired level and practice—from gentle yoga to more dynamic vinyasa—and are available to both Italian and foreign guests. It is a perfect way to start the day on the lawn, with the scent of the sea in the air, or to end it with a practice at sunset.
Bike Tours on the Marina di Ragusa cycle path
For bike lovers, Villa Florinda is the ideal base. In collaboration with local guides, Camisa Essential can organize bike tours along the beautiful cycle path that starts at the mouth of the Irminio River, runs along the sea, crosses the Andrea Doria promenade and the port, and ends at Santa Barbara. The routes can be customized in terms of difficulty and duration, making them perfect for both trained cyclists and families: panoramic views, photo stops, and short detours to the most authentic bars on the coast.
Contemporary comfort and attention to detail
In addition to the charm of its spaces, Villa Florinda offers amenities designed for contemporary and sustainable living, including a charging station for electric cars, making the villa suitable for those w...
