Wonderful stay in Sicily with 5 star host
Giovanni is a very generous and naturally gifted host who has lived a fascinating life. He met us late at night when we checked in with a wonderful homemade Sicilian meal. He showed us where to buy local food introduced us to local people and even secured my family fresh fish at the harbour and cooked it for us. The villa is traditional Sicilian and was very spacious for 5 people complete with comfortable beds, a pool and hot tub. The villa is in a quiet area and was in a perfect location for day trips to wonderful beaches and scenery. If your looking for the best Sicilian hospitality I highly recommend!

highly recommend this well equipped, spacious, authentic villa in a stunning location
We have just returned from a wonderful holiday at Gulliver’s Nest. The villa is very well equipped and spacious and we loved the authentic Sicilian style. It was very clean and comfortable - very comfortable mattresses too which is important for a holiday. Giovanni is a very friendly host who did everything he could to make our holiday special. He provided an amazing lasagne and home made wine for when we arrived from the airport. Over the week he treated us to various Sicilian meals including homemade ravioli with stew and a superb sfincione - we felt we were getting a real slice of Sicily. He also took the time to teach us how to make carbonara one evening - it was a really fun evening and we are looking forward to recreating carbonara ourselves. The villa is in a wonderful location- very near to castellmare del golfo but also in easy reach of many beautiful places. We enjoyed a lovely boat trip to explore the coast, beautiful beaches, trip to Erice and Segesta. Giovanni was full of information about the area and helped us with our boat and car rental - he really tried to make our holiday easy for us. We highly recommend this place and hope to return one day to create more Sicilian memories.

Great house and location in Castellammare
We greatly enjoyed staying at this property. The house is spacious, well-appointed and comfortable but we especially enjoyed the pool and the shaded outdoor dining area where we would have breakfast and lunch and enjoy the magnificent views of the surrounding area and mountains. It is truly a beautiful property. The host Giovanni was very friendly and helpful with regard to both the house and things to do in the area. On top of that, he provided us with a delicious lunch (with local wine) on the day of our arrival. I had mentioned one of our daughters is on a gluten-free diet, so he made the pasta GF. Much appreciated. During the stay he also delivered a very tasty local style of pizza. The property is very convenient to the city, which we enjoyed even more than we anticipated, as well as to the beaches in San Vito Lo Capo and other local attractions. I would highly recommend this property and would stay here again if we have the good fortune to get back to Sicily.

Perfect Holiday Villa
Gulliver's Nest was one of the best villas we've stayed at because it was accommodating for 9 people and Giovanni was very willing to help. When we arrived, Giovanni provided dinner and fresh homemade wine. Not only was it delicious, but we felt like family. Giovanni went through everything in detail to ensure our trip was amazing. The views were beautiful and the pool and jacuzzi were refreshing amenities that promoted relaxation. The area is safe so there is no worry of theft and Giovanni was eager to answer any questions we had. The villa is close enough to the city for visiting, but far enough away that it's quiet. Giovanni was a gracious host and even provided dinner again on the last night of our stay. We had an amazing vacation that wouldn't have been possible without Gulliver's Nest. - Tiffany Wilkerson, Ben, Tally, Mario, Abigail, Audrey, Sudie, Alex, and Rowley P.S. Deposit has been given back

Trip of a Lifetime
Our stay at the Gulliver’s Nest Villa was one of the best experiences in our lives. We travel extensively and we wanted to try a Villa rather than a Hotel. This Villa is in one of the most beautiful areas in the world, surrounded by mountains and a spectacular view. Everything in our stay exceeded our expectations. The place is simply immaculate, secure and very comfortable. Everything you could possibly need is provided, full kitchen, comfortable beds, cable TV, swimming pool, Hot Tub and much more. We were welcomed by the owner, Giovanni Rappa with a spectacular home cooked meal that compared to the best of restaurants anywhere. The Villa is located near some of the most beautiful countryside that you can imagine. Your visit to Castellammare del Golfo will be treasured for a lifetime. Needless to say, I look forward to my return to this paradise. Thank you Giovanni for making our stay Perfect. John Gagliardi

Home away from Home
Our host Giovanni was the true gentleman and ensured everything throughout our stay went smoothly. A highlight of the week was his Sicilian supper which he served to us. It was beautiful and all the better when we received the background knowledge on the preparation of each dish. Giovanni proved to be a mine of information on all things local and even further afield. We had a thoroughly enjoyable experience in Sicily and found everything to be great value. The Sicilian people are truly laid back and welcoming also which makes it a wonderful place for kids. We shall return some day again in the future to enjoy once again this great country. Castlemare Del Golfo is a bit offputting with its steep hills and tiny streets especially when you've hired a car but it's so worth a visit as there is a wonderful atmosphere at night and great value in all the restaurants as well as being a beautiful little town.

Villa Gulliver’s Nest
La Sicile, île de toutes les beautés a toujours été pour moi et ma famille non seulemente une terre à explorer mais aussi une terre d’origine pour ma femme… Et pour y passer nos vacances, la chance nous a tournés vers une heureuse destination domiciliaire: La Villa Gulliver’s Nest, nid de voyageurs, et parfaite maison d'accueil pour une famille nombreuse comme la mienne pas seulement grâce à la structure mais aussi grâce au sourir jovial, hospitalier et accueillent de son propriétaire. En fait, à notre arrivée à Gulliver’s, le propriétaire nous a accueilli avec une belle boisson fraîche, chose inoubliable compte tenue de la haute température de ce jour là, et surtout avec un champagne de haute qualité, Prosecco italiano, et l’enchantemente était total…. Et comme nous sommes arrivés le soir, vers huit heure, le propriétaire nous a offert un dîner avec un excellent apéritif et “una lasagna” aux saveurs méditerranéens. Un dîner inattendu, professionnel et servi avec un bon service à table de telle en sort que nous avons demandé deux autres repas typique de la Sicile au “proprio” de Gulliver’s. Et selon moi , la cuisine à Gulliver’s ne se trouve nulle part ailleurs car le propriétaire offre des aliments biologiques, cultivés dans son propre jardin, et fait des plats antiques siciliens dont la saveur me revient au moment même où j'écris et dont je conseillerais à toute personne d’y goûter, si le propriétaire en offre la possibilité. En ce qui concerne la maison; elle était très grande, je dirais assez grande pour une grande famille, belle, propre jusqu’aux moindres détails et avec une assez large cuisine et tant d’autres belles choses que je ne saurais me mettre à citer ici… Et pour finir, j’aimerais démentir, ou du moins apporter une réserve à une précédente critique sur la Villa Gulliver’s, injuste, selon moi, et mensongère, qui dit “ la chambre du bas était puante, pleine de moustique, froide et bla bla bla…; cette “chambre puante” a en fait été celle que ma femme et moi avons choisi et je pense qu’elle était et est, toujours, toute aussi confortable belle et propre que toutes les autres ; et la dedans nous n’avions pas eu besoin de système de climatisation étant donné que la chambre selon moi était géothermique. Tout ceci pour enfin dire que la Sicile et surtout la Villa Gulliver’s Nest ont été pour moi et ma famille une merveille que, ici, je conseil aux éventuels touristes en Italie de visiter, et je pense aussi qu’elles

Fantastic cannot wait to return next year.
MY BEAUTIFUL HOMELAND. Gulliver's Nest What can i say Wow Wow !!! My father was born in Trapani therefore i have been to Sicily many many time.During my visits i usally stay in an apartment, on this occation due to my family (Daughter, Son in Law & Grandson ) comng with us we decided to rent a villa. GULLIVER'S NEST.. Wow - Wow - Wow - Wow - Wow So many villa's to choose from and we chose Gulliver's Nest. WHAT A PERFECT CHOICE. On arrival we were greeted by Giovani, whom i will now call Gio. I can say many words that can discribe Gio but I will say Two - True GENTLEMAN & True FAMILYMAN. Gio will make anyones stay at Gulliver's Nest the perfect stay. The Villa stands in it own grounds which is very secure and most of all very safe. I appreciated the Scillian traditional herritage of the villa, the decor of the villa reminded me of my childhood and brought back so many memories of my Grandmother. Entering the villa is like walking into someones home family portraits hang on the walls, everything about this villa was above our expectations. Everything was clean and tidy, there is everything in the villa you will need to live very comfortably. During our stay i asked Gio if he minded if i invited some of my family members to stay at the villa during the weekend, Gio embrased this suggestion with open arms and also suggested that we suprise them with an evening meal. All of our expectations were fulfilled in every way, not only was the meal Gio prepared for us of exceptional standard which would be expected from a 5 star retaurant he also waited on us ( 9 adults & 1 child ). No words could express what Gio did that evening . GIO YOU PLANTED VERY SPECIAL MEMORY IN THE HEARTS OF A VERY SPECIAL FAMILY WHICH WILL LAST MANY LIFE TIME. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. I only have one dissapointmnet i have got to go back to England, we will be leaving tommorow so bye bye my beautiful Sciliy i love you and will be back. Just a quick note to anyone that has not been to Sciliy visit Erice, Segesta & have a Cannoli.

Beautiful, clean, spacious, great views, nice location, very private.
The house was wonderful. Very comfortable and was great for our group of people. We were able to entertain and used the outside dining area a few times as well. Pool was nice to have even though we mostly went to the beach. Giovanni was a great host! He checked on us often and cooked delicious food for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Sicily and Gulliver's Nest was a big part of the reason we had such a fantastic vacation!
