If a holiday for you isn’t complete without sea views and the sound of waves rushing ashore, this could be the home for you. This charming seafront home is on the shores of Fontane Bianche, a popular resort in Sicily. It looks over a rocky beach and the Mediterranean Sea, with glorious views from the terrace. The outside space is the main event here, with a veranda that goes from the lounge to the garden, and a barbecue and table ideal for alfresco dining. There’s even an outdoor shower so you can rinse off after a trip to the beach. Inside, the space is crisp and modern, with everything you might need for a beach break.
