We had a perfect stay in Villa Pioppi, which was even nicer in real than in pictures. Beautiful, big house (we were with 2 persons) with a beautiful private terrace with view at the sea! Walking up a few hundred meters will bring you to the pool, which is really big and nice situated (good terrace with beds in the sun and shadow). You will share this with one other house of guests. Every morning we had fresh eggs from the chickens and fresh fruit (like plums and blackberries). The property is really high up to hill from out Mascali, up to the Vulcano, which is really special. It's 20 minutes driving to the coast and Mascali. The hosts are the best you can imagine, we felt so at home, and their Sicilian lunch is super good! When you're looking for a peaceful place at the eastcoast of Sicily: this is it!
