I could write a novel about our vacation in this house, but to keep it a little shorter, it was just gorgeous and magical. Diana and Antonio are the most wonderful hosts and we felt welcome and at home from the first moment. they have really created something incredibly beautiful in the hills of Pettineo. you really don't want to leave :) the location is perfect, whether you fly to Palermo or Catania, by car you are there quite quickly (1.5-3h), Pettineo is reachable by car in a few minutes, at the sea you are about in 18 minutes (tips for beaches, aperitivo at the sea or anything else your heart desires you get from the two) and in Santo stefano di camastra, for food shopping you are in about 27 minutes. We spent almost our whole vacation in the house because we wanted to enjoy every minute of it. We were there in September, but I think any other season would be just as wonderful. the interior with the winter garden is just as beautiful as the garden with the outdoor kitchen (we LOVED it so much!). Diana said it quite well, in the words of her friend: "i just want to stay in the white area of the ground the whole time, it's like a magical island" - book the house, enjoy Sicily and your vacation there and find out why you don't want to leave this white area at all. Diana and Antonio, thank you for this unforgettable time. We will definitely come back again and again and we are really looking forward to the next time. Love, jan and jana
