Villa Zappino: Holiday apartments in Zambrone

Stromboli within your grasp

At the most northern tongue of the Capo Vaticano between Briatico and Parghelia stretches a marvellously beautiful coastal area: broad and long beaches are interrupted by tuff stone riffs from time to time.

The splendidly white sand underlines the blue transparency of the sea. And on the horizon the Aeolian Islands seem to be within grasp. 

Amazed by these natural beauties the Zappino family has created their holiday domicile in exposed location on a hill overgrown by macchia – halfway between Marina di Zambrone and the mountain village of Zambrone.

From Villa Zappino, which has been completed in 2006, you are offered a phenomenal 180° panoramic view, which reaches all the way to Tropea enthroned on a rock face in the south. The highlight: Stromboli, Vulcano, Lipari, Panarea, Alicudi and Filicudi – the Aeolian Islands, especially beautiful in the evening light.

Villa Zappino houses nine holiday apartments apart from the two summer residences of the owners. We have chosen for you the holiday apartments Eugenio and Stromboli – all with frontal sea view.

Holiday apartment Stromboli

The holiday apartment Stromboli (2-3 pers.) is located on the ground floor of the house. A 25 sqm terrace with sea view invites you to linger. There is hardly anything better than watching the sun disappearing behind the sea while having a glass of wine – in the background the Aeolian Islands with the island of Stromboli. Also from the bedroom (with double bed) you enjoy the view of the blue sea. The bright eat-in-kitchen is equipped with satellite TV, the bedroom with shower/bidet/WC.

Holiday apartment Eugenio

The holiday apartment Eugenio (max. 4 pers.) on the second floor is furnished with two double rooms (double bed and twin beds), bathroom with shower/bidet/WC and a kitchen-cum-living room with modern built-in kitchen and TV. The kitchen-cum-living room also has a wide paned façade with sea view. From the L-shaped balcony of the apartment you enjoy the view upon the sea and Tropea. When then the Aeolian Islands “emerge from the sea” like pearls on a string, the holiday happiness is picture perfect. 

For the common use of all guests, there are various sitting possibilities in the garden, two outdoor showers and a stone grill. 

You may park your car directly in front of the villa on the 2500 sqm property.
