Hiera - Two Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 4 | Villa in Marettimo
2 Bedroom Villa in Marettimo
A lovingly restored, harbour-front fisherman’s cottage with superb sea views and beach access.
Authentic in spirit, but reassuringly contemporary in terms of comfort, Hiera offers guests the perfect base from which to explore one of Italy’s most fascinating but least visited islands: a pebble’s throw from the beach, a gentle meander to a series of excellent trattorie, and a short stroll from the start of the walking paths that circumnavigate and scale Marettimo’s mountainous interior. If you’re in need of a rest after all that exploring, you can relax in Hiera’s al fresco roof-top tub, looking out to sea and counting your blessings.
"Hiera is an exceptional property." MC, UK, October 2019
Inside: the front door takes one into the living area. Heading straight on is a shower room and then the charming kitchen-diner, whose views take in the old port of Marettimo and the sea. The kitchen door accesses the seafront footpath that runs in front of the property and, from there, the pebbly beach below.
Back in the living area, a bespoke staircase leads to the first floor, which is home to a children’s twin bedroom, a bathroom with tub, and a spacious, double-aspect double bedroom. Those sleeping in this latter room are treated to superb sea views on waking - be warned: getting up to make the morning coffee will take considerable effort!
Outside: when you’re not sleeping, swimming in the sea, walking in the mountains or dining on lobster soup in one of the town’s trattoria, you’ll probably find yourself gravitating towards your wonderful roof-top terrace.
Here, blessed with stunning views of the sea, the mountains, the castle at Punta Troia, and the islands of Favignana and Levanzo on the horizon, you’ll be able to fully relax in the al fresco tub, catch some rays, cool off under the outdoor shower, and dine long into the night under the stars.
Hiera is a great option for those who do not wish to hire a car and a fantastic opportunity to become part of a welcoming and fascinating community.
Please note that this villa does not have a pool.
Please note that you cannot drive inside Marettimo town.
The café-bar behind the house (open from mid-May to mid-September) is a popular spot and a good place for snacks and refreshments, from breakfast to sunset aperitifs and beyond - in the high summer months, especially around the middle of August, it stays open until late.
The number of steps that must be negotiated to get into and around this property might make it unsuitable for people with mobility problems.
The roof terrace is partly overlooked by a couple of other properties.
Depending on the direction of the wind, (distant) traffic noise may occasionally be audible in certain areas of the grounds.
As this villa is located on an island, we recommend extra caution when booking your flights to avoid problems or delays with ferries and hydrofoils. It may be advisable to arrive a day earlier and depart a day later. Please contact us for any information or advice.
Arrival details will be confirmed by The Thinking Traveller after your villa is confirmed.
The Thinking Traveller can organise transfers and car hire and an agent will be in touch with you once your villa is confirmed.
