We stayed in the villa with a family of fifteen in April 2018. Everybody enjoyed the stay very much. Because of the very high amount of space inside and outside the villa, which was more than expected, it never felt cramped. All interactions with the owner and the agency were excellent and very helpful. The people taking care of the villa and the premises are extremely friendly, too, and very helpful on a day-to-day basis. The rooms are very nicely decorated, high standard. The bathrooms are in very good shape, too. One aspect that got too little attention in the other reviews here is how fantastic the villa is located: in the midth of a large vineyard, at the end of a large private street, so it is far away from any distracting noise. The views from the villa and the pool area are spectacular: 180° ocean view, and towards the Catania side, it feels like a 100 km view down the southeastern coast of Sicily. Although it is about 700 m above sea level (which makes the great views!), you can reach Catania and the highway easily, and the location on the Etna south side grants lots of sun and wonderful vegetation. The Etna, by the way, is within view most of the time, too, so it is a perfect location between mountain and ocean. Don't miss a trip to the Etna, and a walk within the volcanic landscape, which is in easy reach (30 minute drive up the mountain). All in all, despite all the interesting places nearby to see, you will enjoy a perfect day just staying in the villa (and the pool area), and enjoy the views and tranquillity.
