Villa with swimming pool in the picturesque Madonie mountains of Sicily

In the middle of an olive grove lies our villa, Casa Mario, far from tourism in the Madonie Mountains of Sicily. The villa is furnished in a country house style and offers all the comforts you would not want to miss at home. The upper area is equipped with a modern kitchen (gas stove, dishwasher, electric oven, Italian coffee maker, Bosch fridge), two bedrooms, living room, dining room and a guest toilet. An external staircase leads to the lower area, which again has a bedroom with 4 beds, a small kitchen and a shower room. There are two terraces: the upper one is equipped with two parasols and a wooden table with 4 chairs and two sun loungers. The lower terrace is covered, has a lava stone table with 8 chairs, a brick grill, a couch with a table and a small cupboard for plates, cutlery and glasses. In the middle of the spacious garden (1 hectare), surrounded by fruit trees, palm trees and olive trees, is the swimming pool (10 x 5 meters) about 100 meters from the lower terrace. There are four loungers, a Dedon basket as well as a couch group with shade-giving parasols and an awning. The pool is filled with saline water and is automatically supplied with the respective chemicals.

Unique rural experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the villa. It was a great location, close to the lovely community of Caltavuturo. The host provided very useful recommendations about the property, dining, shopping and other activities. The shops in town were great, including the butcher, the bakery and the pasticceria, not to mention the chef and team at AlterEgo restaurant. The villa was well appointed, it offered a number of areas within and outside the property to relax and enjoy the views and experience. We would highly recommend this location for people who want a quiet getaway, yet close enough for day trips to the coast, etc. Thank you.

Wonderful location
This house was a rural location with a stunning view of the mountains. The house was large and was equipped with everything you would need including a fantastic swimming, unfortunately it was too cold for us to enjoy. Small town nearby had excellent restaurants and a great morning coffee shop. We can't say enough about the hosts who gave us great directions to nearby restaurants and places of interest. They recommended and made a reservation for us and a small Michelin restaurant in a tiny town in the mountains. It was the highlight of the trip.

Beautiful property in stunning location
We had a fabulous time in the villa and as soon as we arrived wished we had booked for longer. It is a truly lovely property, very well looked after and loved by the owners who were helpful, attentive but also respected our privacy. It is secluded which means you need to drive to beaches but they are not far away and we chose this location because it suited us. Caltavuturo has all the amenities you need and has many lovely cafes and bars. It’s a pretty and relaxed town with not much English spoken but again that was exactly what we wanted! A perfect holiday for us.

Stunning!
Fantastic stay at the gorgeous Casa Maria. Absolutely stunning location and the locals are really friendly. The owners were friendly and welcoming and the olive oil is gorgeous! The pool area and veranda are fabulous and we found it very difficult to move from there. Would highly recommend this 5* property.

Wonderful villa, helpful hosts and an amazing week!
We have just returned from a fantastic week in this wonderful, high quality villa. The villa itself is extremely well equipped and spacious with everything you could need. The outside space is beautiful, everything has been so tastefully put together, the extensive grounds very well maintained and the views are amazing. The pool is a great size and we all enjoyed being able to have a proper swim! There was also a lovely and very welcome breeze (especially after coming from 3 days in Catania). Caltavuturo is a great town: excellent independent bakers, butchers, grocers and bars and cafes. Bar Siragusa was a particular favourite of ours for breakfast, ice cream and coffee. It was lovely to meet Susanne and Rene on arrival who were extremely welcoming and helpful. This really is a spectacular property where we had the most wonderful relaxing week. Thank you Susanne and Rene

We had a wonderful 2 week stay in Caltavuturo. The house was very comfortable and we especially enjoyed the outside area. The pool was a great success with our kids as there was no chlorine! Peaceful stay and the small town is great to shop daily in for all your fresh food items. Everyone was so friendly. Our hosts couldn’t be more helpful during our stay and it was lovely to meet them.

Sicily at It's Very Best!
The rental was our last of four during our three weeks in Italy in early June 2019. The goal was to find something a bit off the beaten path and Casa Mario exceeded our expectations. The villa is located only a short distance from the town of Caltavuro, which had shops and a few restaurants. But the country location and the amazing views of the farms and hills to the west are what we liked the most. And the swimming pool didn't hurt - especially when it got very warm in the afternoons of the last two days we were there. We were also lucky to be introduced to the property by the owners, who are clearly passionate about this location and this wonderful villa. We would certain stay at Casa Mario again if we return to this part of Sicily.

Peaceful, lovely and gorgeous
We had a very relaxing time. The house is lovely, the pool is gorgeous and the local area is fascinating and beautiful. You can still travel to beaches and historical sites in Sicily from the house - but most days you'll find it hard to leave! The local town is a working town and full of lovely local shops and is very warm and inviting. We can really recommend this villa.

A Little Gem in the Hills of Sicily!
A very relaxing week, starting each day popping to Caltavuturo (1km) for freshly baked bread and visiting Bar Siracuse for coffee. Breakfast on the terrace with such fantastic views was something special. The house was very well equipped and had all we needed to make our stay comfortable. The pool was a delight and the gentle breeze was very welcome. Mr Serafino was very welcoming but discreet and made sure we had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Casa Mario to our friends.
