Villa With Private Pool and Furnished Garden, Barbecue and External Dining Area

Typical Sicilian villa with a breathtaking view: you can admire the majestic Etna volcano, Taormina, and the Ionian Sea up to Syracuse and Calabria. The house is very spacious, the living area is equipped with numerous sofas and armchairs, satellite TV, DVD player, dining room and fireplace. There is an area with a table for playing cards. The kitchen is also equipped with all comforts: dishwasher, American coffee machine, kettle, toaster, microwave oven. On the ground floor, there are three bedrooms with views of the Ionian Sea, two full bathrooms and one with only services. In the attic, there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms with a shower plus a living area. In the garden then, there is a patio where you can eat outdoors, the BBQ; tables and chairs and sunbeds all around the large pool. The outdoor shower, the play area for children, the table tennis and the basketball hoop complete the lush garden. The villa is an oasis of peace. Surrounded by greenery just a few minutes walk away is a small village, Linera, where you can buy freshly baked bread, a small but well-stocked supermarket, the church, newspapers, an ATM ... The house is ideal for families with children, and for groups of friends where everyone can find their own spaces or stay together. Because of its location, the villa is the perfect starting point for excursions to the Etna Volcano, Taormina, Acireale, Syracuse, and just 5 km away you can find the sea.

Beautiful villa with loads of space
The villa is enormous with tons of space for our extended family to be together but also have our own space. There are 3 bedrooms next to the gigantic double living area on the ground floor (1 double with a sofa bed and ensuite) and 2 twin (one of them has an ensuite). Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms (1 en suite) along with a kitchenette and another bathroom. These rooms have balconies and one has a large terrace, which has an amazing view right across from the sea to Etna. The kitchen has a dining area for 8 so we mostly ate here, rather than the long dining table in the living area. The bedrooms have aircon, not needed by most of us in April but my elderly mother appreciated a bit of heating in her room in the evenings and we lit the log fire too. The house feels cool, which I am sure is great in the summer heat. The pretty (and large) garden has fantastic views in both directions (Etna and the sea), with a covered dining area as well as a surround patio round the house. Bring your ping pong balls for a game! We visited at the beginning April and the superb weather meant that we were able to enjoy the pool too (not heated but very pleasant if you enjoy a refreshing swim). The house is accessed by 2 electronic gates, be careful when you are turning out of the outside gate onto the road as there is limited visibility. We walked down to the village for bread and pizza, be aware that there is no pavement. Highly recommended place to stay!

Beautiful Property
The house is big! Perfect for a larger family. The Property has amazing views and is quiet and comes fully stocked with everything you need. The little town is close and had what we were looking for. We even arranged for Gloria (off Maria's recommendation) to come up one evening and teach us how to make a dinner - it was Fabulous! The only issue we had was the down stairs showers ran hot and cold. Which was not an issue for most of us we just went to use the upstairs showers but for my 70 year old mother who could not climb the stairs it was a bit if a sticking point.

Splendid villa, spacious and comfortable
This is an exceptional villa, very large and comfortable, with generous reception rooms and lots of lovely indoor and outdoor spaces to lounge in. The pool is larger than usual and a gorgeous place to swim. There is a wonderful curtained outside dining area, again with masses of space for everyone. Amazing views of Etna and the sea. The local village is good for most shopping with an excellent bakery. The best beach is at Fondachello. Acireale is a beautiful place for a meal and a wander round some wonderful churches and squares.

Amazing villa
Fantastic location, sea on one side, Etna on the other. We were a party of 5 couples lots of space to either sit round the pool in the sun or sit in the shade. Very well equipped, Maria couldn't do enough for us and was especially concerned when the weather was bad and Etna decided to wake up!! Gloria cooked for us all one evening which was very enjoyable. Good supermarket pizzeria and bakery in walking distance, Good to use as a base, highly recommended.

This villa is absolutely stunning with everything you could possibly need, Maria is the perfect host
We chose to do something very special for our holiday as we were celebrating my mother's 70th birthday, and this villa did not disappoint. We were 4 adults and 2 children of 11 and 7 years, and we were spoilt for space. The place is huge! We arrived quite late on a Saturday night and Maria our host was there to meet us. We didn't drive as we're not confident driving abroad, and Maria was kind enough to organise a transfer for us which made the arrival very slick. The local supermarket is closed on Sundays and Maria was extremely thoughtful and had bought various things for us so we wouldn't go hungry, as well as a special bottle of wine and beautiful lemons picked from the property itself! Such a lovely personal touch that was really appreciated. Locally there is a small supermarket, bakery, butcher, fruit and vegetables, a souvenir shop and pizza restaurant about 10 mins walk away. Very handy! If you don't drive it can get quite pricey to get around to visit different areas and excursions but that was the choice we made. If you drive, it's easier. We managed to get to Taormina, Gardini Naxos, Isla Bella, Catania and of course Etna. There's plenty of parking and you're secure and away from the main road behind 2 electric gates and up a driveway. The pool and the garden... so special. Even though we were out and about we spent time in the pool which is absolutely stunning and perfect for the 32 degree heat we had. The view... wow! Our highlight of our holiday was the view. It's a sea view on one side of the garden right out to the Taormina coastline and in the other is the beautiful pièce de résistance, Mount Etna herself. During the day she was gently smoking away, then at night we were treated to amazing bright orange lava flows!!! Every night!!! We couldn't believe our luck. Really topped off an amazing holiday in an extra special villa with a perfect attentive host. Thank you so much Maria!

May half term break
Stayed at the villa as a family with 2 children and 2 friends. We had everything we needed at the villa and plenty of space outside for our children to play. Maria even brought them a surprise castle slide! Bakery and pizzeria just a short walk away down into the village and a small supermarket. Great location to explore the sights of Sicily . Bbq was great outside lots of space to eat down in the garden and covered area. Only thing we needed was better weather but we still managed to use the pool, which was a great size for us all. Maria was a great host and checked up on us during our stay via what’s app and offered to help with a dentist when a member of our party had an abscess. We hope to visit again

A spacious villa with beautiful grounds between Mt. Etna and the Ionian Sea.
This beautiful villa is built around the stunning ancient wine press which takes up the back of the house, incorporating the gym area. We were five adults and the two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms were great, our bedroom being huge with a daybed, desk and armchair. The third bedroom was small with two single beds but without an ensuite. In fact, there was not a third bathroom at all, although the villa description states 3 bathrooms and a separate wc. There was a separate wc which was next to the utility room on the far side of the villa.Unfortunately, this was quite a trek at night, negotiating the steps from the living room. We specifically searched for a place with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The description needs looking at as it is misleading. After saying that we were so pleased with our choice for the two weeks. The living room with 3 separate seating areas was fantastic, reading, tv and computers all separate. The pool and the outside dining area were a real treat. The rustic kitchen had all the amenities you needed with a spacious fridge and full sized dishwasher. We did not know what to expect of Sicily but you could have been anywhere once the automatic gates closed behind you. It was like a different world. We visited most of the resorts and attractions along the east coast of Sicily and it was ideal being close to the coast and only a few minutes from the autostrada. We would thoroughly recommend the villa and Maria to everybody
