Giovanni's villa is perfect if you want a peaceful countryside retreat. The pool area is fantastic with a big shaded area. And there is a lovely BBQ area and a place to eat meals outside but in the shade. The house is very comfortable and cool when it is hot outside. There is air con in the 3 upstairs bedrooms. Giovanni even provided some supplies for us so we could cook a meal when we arrived in the evening. The area is beautiful and not very touristy. You will need a car but there is great pizza nearby in San Cono and lovely bars and restaurants in Piazza Armerina about 20 minutes away. We were two adults and teenage children and we definitely felt like we had lovely relaxing week so thank you!
