Villa Caristo:

Surrounded by beautiful gardens and just a few minutes from the sea, Villa Caristo is a prestigious and historic place which is perfect for a relaxing break. The Baroque-style villa is situated in a peaceful location, and surrounded by nature, guaranteeing our guests an unforgetable holiday.
We offer welcoming rooms in an old-style oil mill which was built next to the villa at the beginning of the 1800’s and that has recently been renovated.
The family concern farm own managed give us the opportunity to offer a traditional farm-type holiday. It’s easy to reach us, the Villa is situated near Stignano, the town where Tommaso Campanella was born.
Our guests are woken up with a delicious breakfast of local sweets and home-made jams. Although we don’t have a restaurant, we are happy to prepare local dishes for our guests upon request.
Nature-lovers will have the chance to walk in the peace and tranquillity of our gardens and nearby pine-wood, read a book in the shade of one of the numerous palm trees, or listen to the birds singing on the “Silent Valley” where the Favaco stream runs.
The Villa is positioned only 6 km from the sea and the Ionic Ste road, giving our guest the opportunity to visit local places of interest and the nearby countryside. For example the cathedrals of Stilo and Gerace and the local area, the bastion of Roccella Ionica, the Locri Museum of archaeology, as well as the Caulonia sea-front and the beautiful city of Reggio Calabria.
