On this floor, a welcoming living room, a dining area, and a spacious kitchen are thoughtfully arranged in a single open-plan space, creating a convivial heart to the home. The ground floor also features a single bedroom that communicates with a double bedroom, and the 2 rooms share an en suite bathroom with shower.

Distances and Attractions
Buca delle Fate enjoys a privileged position in the Valdarno area of Tuscany, situated between the Pratomagno ridge and the nearby Chianti region, and positioned approximately halfway between Florence and Arezzo. The property is located just a few kilometers from the Autostrada del Sole, making it easily accessible from major Italian cities and international airports.
The surrounding landscape is one of the most evocative in the valley, distinguished by the presence of the so-called crags, dramatic rocky erosions formed following the drying up of a large ancient lake that once covered the Arno valley, and which many believe to be portrayed in the backgrounds of paintings by Leonardo da Vinci. These formations offer enchanting scenery particularly at sunset, when shadows play across the steep walls and furrows of the terrain.
The property is accessed via the Setteponti road, the ancient route linking Arezzo and Vallombrosa, along which numerous CAI hiking and mountain biking routes depart, allowing guests to explore the entire area of the crags on foot or by bike. The surrounding countryside is dotted with rural architecture and Romanesque churches, including the famous basilica of Gropina, which dominates the village of Loro Ciuffenna, classified among the most beautiful villages in Italy.

Property Summary
Nestled along the southern coast of Sicily, in Italy, Baia L'Aura is an exceptional vacation rental that draws its very name from the intimate private village of ancient fishermen's houses it was born from. Situated just outside Ispica, at the point where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Ionian Sea, this finely restored coastal complex offers a rare combination of historical character and contemporary comfort. Spanning approximately 200 square meters across a main house and three independent annexes, the property is immersed in a Mediterranean garden of approximately 4,000 square meters, filled with fragrant shrubs, meadows, and flowering plants. The grounds are connected by wooden walkways, stone paths, and cobblestone terraces that wind through the lush landscape, creating a sense of discovery and seclusion. Guests enjoy access to a private descent to the sea, making this retreat a truly singular coastal experience. The property is equipped with Wi-Fi internet connectivity throughout, allowing guests to remain connected while enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings. The expansive yard forms the living heart of the estate, where outdoor life unfolds naturally among panoramic terraces, garden corners, and sea-facing spaces that invite relaxation at every turn.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces at Baia L'Aura are among its most remarkable features, thoughtfully designed to make the most of the property's privileged position overlooking the sea. From the automatic gate on the provincial road, a large terrace welcomes guests with 3 covered and 3 uncovered parking spaces, from which the garden paths begin their journey through the estate. The Mediterranean garden, extending over approximately 4,000 square meters, frames the entire complex with natural beauty and fragrance. A large central terrace overlooking the sea serves as the heart of outdoor life, featuring a dedicated outdoor dining area, relaxation zones, and panoramic corners ideal for taking in the sweeping coastal views. Each annex is equipped with its own private bleached wooden terrace, furnished with a shaded relaxation area, offering guests a sense of privacy and personal outdoor space. Several additional terraces are distributed across the property, some perfectly oriented for sunbathing and others designed for quiet moments of rest or alfresco lunches. A dedicated path leads through a gate that opens onto a stone terrace directly on the seashore, complete with a shaded pergola and sun loungers positioned for relaxing between swims. From this platform, guests may dive directly into the crystal-clear waters below. 2 outdoor showers with cold water are available on the grounds, one located on the stone terrace and one on the lawn terrace, while Annex 2 features an additional outdoor shower with hot water. Sun loungers are distributed across the various terraces throughout the property. Please be aware that the dry stone walls typical of this area are very low and overlook the cliff, which makes the property unsuitable for children under 10 years of age. As photographs of the property are typically taken in spring, the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and surrounding park may appear different upon arrival depending on the season.
Unit Layout
Baia L'Aura accommodates up to 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, distributed among the main house and 3 independent annexes, all arranged on a single level and connected by garden paths.

Upon entering, guests are welcomed into a living room with a sofa and television, alongside a service bathroom. A double bedroom with an en suite bathroom featuring a shower offers direct access to the outside and a private terrace with sea views. The kitchen and dining room complete the main house, opening directly onto the pergola-covered terraces overlooking the sea. Annex 1, covering approximately 70 square meters, houses 2 mirrored double bedrooms, each with its own private entrance, an en suite bathroom with shower partially integrated into the room, and a shaded private terrace with sea views. Annex 2, approximately 30 square meters, contains a double bedroom with an en suite bathroom featuring both a shower and a bathtub positioned within the room, a private terrace with sea views, and a private outdoor shower with hot water.
