we came with 7 fellow students for a 9day stay in the very end of octobre and neither the sicilian weather, culture or sun nor the villa and its amazing pool, beautiful inside and wonderful terrace with this amazing view let us down.
there were said to be some changes to the house, so we were a bit worried if everything would be ready, but everything was perfect and as seen in the pictures. the villa is not completely alone in between the other 2 villas of the owners, but as they were empty most of the time anyway and far enough that was no problem at all. we were wondering if the pool or the villa would have sea view, which it did not, but the amazing view over the beautiful countrysides and fields incredibly beautiful and nothing inferior to a corner sea view.
everything seemed very orderly, clean and perfect and the manager, gardeners and staff work really properly so that everything is perfect.
the inside, terrace, barbecue station and pool area are just as seen in the pictures- really beautiful, stylish, functional and just perfect for a complete relaxation.
living is easy when the beach& supermarket is just about 15 car minutes away, you need a good navigation system though, especially in the dark, because as quiet as you want to be in the villa as off civilization it is. the island is full of natural beauty and culture, so whenever you get to manage to leave the pool you can visit some of the most amazing sights, cities and natural places like the chalk cliffs sella de turci, the valle de templi, the beaches of selinunte and surrounding and palermo in the reach of 1 (1,5 palermo) (15 minutes beach) hours by car.
equipment with dishwasher& tabs, washing machines, irons, hairdryers, towels (even some more for the beach!) was perfect except for a sponge we needed to buy from the supermarket, but that's really no critic at all when you even have mosquito "snakes" and plugs. and if anything is needed there are really nice people taking care of the other houses and garden every second day or so whom you can ask for anything (such as a new battery for the gate opener).
all in all we were completely happy in this house, had some perfect days and a lot of fun cooking and having barbecue together. I'd recommend it to anyone: groups of students like us, but also groups of couples, families, everyone.
we loved it and we miss the place.
