Villa Ama is situated just outside the attractive town of Piedimonte Etneo. The house is conveniently located on the road that leads to Mount Etna in one direction and the sea in the other. To reach the villa, take the Catania-Messina motorway (A18). Exit at Fiumefreddo and, turning left, follow the signs for Piedimonte. Follow the road for approximately 3 kilometres (2 miles) and look out for a sign on the right hand side of the road with "Piedimonte Etneo, 363m". Villa Ama is at n. 91, on the right side of the road, soon after this sign and is easily recognisable by its bamboo fencing.

Visitors who have enjoyed reading the classic novel “The Leopard” may be interested in customised tours of sites in Sicily connected to the book and its author, Prince Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, cousin of the owners of Villa Ama.
