Tout ètait parfait. Le seul regret, c'était de ne pas pouvoir passer plus de temps. Un grand merci à Gianluca pour tous les services qu'il nous attendu.

Oh my - what a beautiful stunning holiday whilst staying in your beautiful villa! Our family of 6 enjoyed the most wonderful stay being hosted and guided by the best Gianluca!! You gave us such memories which we will trasure. Such as a sunset walk up Mount Etna, a true feast in 4 Archi - the wine was fab! Cocktails and stunning meal in Monaci delle Terre Nere. The setting was tremendous, enjoying the villa in all its magnificence - our 2 boys LOVED and made every minute out of the football pitch but the most memorable day for us was a day out on a boat, diving into the ocean with Pontile Pizzichella, followed by the wonderful Fabio cooking for us on return. Thank you so so much for the memories.

What a fabulous two weeks we have had staying in your beautiful home! We are 2 families visiting from England. We had many fun days out - highlights being 2x boating trips, 2x visits to the wonderful Monaci Delle Terre Nere (definitely worth it) 4 x 4 excursion up Mt Etna and obviously many days lazing by the pool enjoying the gorgeous gardens and football pitch. Our stay would not have been complete without the knowledge and help of Gianluca - He is FABULOUS! What a star!! Thank you Gianluca ♥ And thank you Sicily ♥

Lovely visit to Sicily, we loved staying in the Villa, which had beautiful sea views, an amazing food and a great view on Mount Etna! The Villa was perfect for relaxing and visiting nearby historic towns. We were a family of five and the villa was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the jeep tour up Mount Etna, visiting Syracuse and also enjoyed the square in Zafferana. Would recommend restaurant Oleum pizzeria where we had fantastic pizza on the last night. Had an amazing stay Gianluca was really helpful. xx

We had a fabulous week exploring the area! Gianluca arranged many wonderful excursions for us - Mt. Etna, boating, chef dinner, tours of many villages and connected us with n interpreter and her husband, who helped us find a cousin from Lipari! The pool and setting was beautiful. We loved our time in Sicily and will return again. Thank you for helping us memories to last a lifetime! Gwendolyn + Michael Marino Los Angeles CA.

We are a family of 10 visiting from Mexico, Argentina and USA. We truly enjoyed our stay in this dream house\/villa. The soccer match\/field was very popular in our family, lunch with Chef Fabio outdoors was superb, the spa + turkish bath, pool, views + weather. We couldn't have asked for more. We want to be back hopefully soon! Gianluca was the best host, extremely helpful, attentive and always available. We will always cherish to the memories we created in this villa. ♥ Familia Alvarez + De Ruggiero Magda, Luciano, Bauti, Emi, Vietsia, Aldo, Bretz, Pamela, Gogpa + Magda A dopo!

We had a beautiful two weeks in the marvelous hills of Etna - Mountains. Living in this very skilfully decorated Villa was a joy - as was the help of GianLuca with many good ideas like the visit of Sicilian Chef Fabio, who once deliciously cooked for us, and the other time made a little \"cooking-class\"" for us to show us how to make Arancinos! Perfect. We saw Taormina

La villa était très bien, malheuresement il n' y avent pas beaucoup de soleil. Du coup, la piscine n' a pas été utilisée, mai pour contre c'est l'unverse pour le jacuzzi et le terrain de foot. Merci beaucoup à Gianluca.

We had a lovely trip to Sicily as a group of friends and stayed in the house for 5 days. It was a top location to relax and calm down. The surroundings are lovely to visit during day trips. The house is amazing. Florian and his friends from Berlin.

Charming location with the sea to our right, and Etna to our left. Imaginative use of space, particularly the conversion of the wine press into a health spa. Two football fanatics particularly enjoyed the pitch which was an added bonus and the kids loved searching for the lost balls in the brambles behind. Highlights were definitely Taormina and Gianluca who gave us some splendid recommendations - all of them brilliant for either location or taste! He was also incredibly resourceful in finding us a driver, places to visit, and great helpfulness. We had a splendid week, time to recharge and rest in this wonderful villa. Thanks

Gianluca was amazing, he made our visit in Sicily a memory of a lifetime. We travelled to Noto, Taormina, Linguaglossa and Castiglione and Giardini Naxos for a boat trip. However just relaxing by the pool was enough to remove the cold Melbourne weather from our bones.

La villa nous a été agréable pendant nos deux semaines de vacances. La vue et le calme de l'entroit nous invite à la relaxation et au lâcher-prise. Gianluca est toujours de trés trés trés bon conseil et d'une bonne humeur sans faille. Merci à vous Gianluca d'avoir rendu notre séjour plus qu'agréable.
