We loved staying in Pamela's villa for our mother-daughter week in Sicily. We were looking for a "live-like-a-local" experience, and her home did not disappoint. My friend and our adult daughters (four of us) were able to easily hop on the highway to access destinations all around the island. And, at the end of the day we could come "home" to our spacious villa and relax on the magnificent terrace. Pamela included authentic touches like old-world decor and modern small appliances including multiple ways to make our favorite coffee. The beds were very comfortable and we opened the shutters to let the breeze come in while we slept. We found everything we needed to be comfortable including new hot water heaters and washing/drying machine. Most importantly, every room was super clean. Easy check-in and great communication. As with any small Italian village, there are lots of stairs up to the entrance. We definitely burned off the pizza and pasta calories.
