Once abandoned and rundown, the 19th-century Rocca delle Tre Contrade is today a spectacular historic residence with a clean and contemporary style. A former wine farm and summer residence, the property features a blend of modern and antique furnishings sourced from throughout Europe. The terraced grounds are planted with fragrant lemon and fig trees, and the infinity pool offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, Etna, and the lush countryside. Priced from about $15,350 per week, the villa also hosts culinary events with well-known chefs like London-based Skye Gyngell and Australian chef and restaurateur Stefano Manfredi.
