we are economists, musicians, sommeliers and we love good company, we have friends all over the globe (including poles) and we are happy to share our paradise with nice, nice and interesting people. "Scilla and Charybdis" Sting suggested to us ... in his famous "wrapped around your finger" we also have a recording studio where international music stars pass. Our motto: Peace & Love
Villa entirely overlooking the Strait, declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2015, a couple of km from the ferries, the sea and the center. We are the nearest structure, five minutes on foot, to the university and the sports town of the Annunziata (Fac. Pharmacy, Letters, Veterinary) and to the Giostra-Annunziata highway. To reach us by public transport Bus no. 20/21/22/23 stop named "Contrada Citola" (Via G.A. bosurgi, 20 Messina) we suggest you to download the App ATM Mov/Up to check the bus timetable and to buy the tickets. The neighborhood is a very quiet residential area just 3 kilometers from the historic center and two kilometers from ferries to / from Italy. We are one kilometer from the beaches and the MUME Regional Museum which houses works by Caravaggio and Antonello da Messina
