Gruppo Villa Pacis

What Gruppo Villa Pacis does

Gruppo Villa Pacis is a family-owned Italian healthcare group headquartered in San Marco d'Alunzio, Sicily, founded in 2012 by Filippo Miracula. It operates an integrated network of residential care, outpatient rehabilitation, and home care services targeting elderly and disabled patients across Messina province. The portfolio includes residential care for self-sufficient and non-self-sufficient individuals, day centers, outpatient rehabilitation, home care, post-hospitalization rehabilitation, disability services, hospice care, and integrated home care.

The group runs six facilities with approximately 240 beds and 150+ employees, including named sites such as Residenza San Leone (opened 2018) and Casa di riposo Madonna del Carmelo (opened 2022). Three facilities earned the Bollino RosaArgento 2024 quality certification from Fondazione Onda. Upcoming 2026 launches include the Ambulatorio di Riabilitazione Villa Pacis, which introduces hydrokinesitherapy as a clinical specialty, and the Sorrisi project, adding 50 residential beds. The group has secured NextGenerationEU funding to support rehabilitation infrastructure investment.

Revenue is generated primarily through SSN (Italian National Health Service) conventioned services, supplemented by private pay, municipal contracts across multiple Nebrodi municipalities, and partnerships with organizations including AVIS and Un Sorriso in Più. The group is privately held by the Miracula family via Villa Pacis srl, with no external investors disclosed. Recent media coverage in La Repubblica and Il Sole 24 Ore (both 2023) reflects growing reputational visibility but not yet scale comparable to larger national operators.
