A quiet villa between the volcano and the sea
Villa Rita Pool & Spa offers a peaceful and memorable retreat where comfort, relaxation and beautiful surroundings come together. Set on the slopes of Mount Etna with views stretching towards the Ionian sea, the villa is an ideal base for discovering eastern Sicily while giving you every reason to slow down and stay a little longer on the property.
Guests are welcomed by a modern, beautifully maintained house designed around comfort. The rooms are spacious and tastefully furnished, many with balconies or terraces opening to the sea, the garden or the volcano, and the attention to cleanliness gives the whole villa a fresh, inviting atmosphere from the moment you arrive.
What truly shapes a stay here is the hospitality. The hosts and the team are welcoming, attentive and generous with local advice, and their personal approach creates the relaxed, homely feeling that guests remember long after they leave.

Everything for a slow, active or restful stay
The heart of the villa is the large heated outdoor pool with its infinity edge, open all year and framed by sun loungers, umbrellas and a wide sun deck that looks over the garden towards the sea. Around it you will find terraces, an outdoor fireplace, barbecue facilities and quiet corners of the garden where the afternoon simply disappears.
The wellness area brings together a hot tub and jacuzzi, a sauna, a Turkish steam bath, a relaxation lounge and changing rooms, while the fitness room lets you keep your routine with a treadmill, an exercise bike and a multi-station machine. For active days there is a tennis court with equipment provided, table tennis, badminton, darts, and walking, hiking and cycling routes on the volcano right outside the gate.
