The villa was quite wonderful. So beautifully restored, it looks just as in the pictures. Actually, the pictures simply can't convey the grounds and the buildings! Adriano met us when we finally arrived after much driving around in circles. (Google maps will not get you there...you'll have to phone your hosts.) He was so welcoming, and had wonderful suggestions for places to eat typical and delicious Sicilian food. (Trattoria Lydia out in the country, with a beautiful sunset on the sea, or Ristorante Garibaldi in Marsala.) He gave us a bottle of wonderful local wine, and we enjoyed every bite of the fruit, so ripe, local, and fresh.
We had a sweet little cat to keep company at the table outdoors where the wifi will work. We didn't get to meet Yumi, but we have great compliments for her design work in restoring the villa. Staying there is rustic...and wonderful! Our first impressions of Sicily will remain at the villa.
