We were a party of seven who stayed here in July 2019. Four adults (50+), one grandparent (80+), a 17-year-old and a 10-year-old. Valeria and Giorgio made us feel welcome the instant we arrived and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our time here. We can’t do much better than the review given in June 2018 by Valeria (same name, but not the owner!), including the comment that the photos simply do not do it justice. The pool is large and immaculately clean, with plenty of loungers and chairs for everyone. The grounds are huge, with several dozen olive trees, and a couple of lemon trees. The bedrooms have individual air conditioning units. There is a table-tennis table outside, and four bicycles but we did not use them as all the tires were flat.
We did all our grocery shopping Deco, which was always clean, appealing and well stocked. On the two evenings we ate out, we had pizzas at La Volpe e L’Uva on the Piazza Duomo, and at the Vegan restaurant MOON (Via Roma 112, 96100, Syracuse), though none of us are Vegan. We highly recommend both places.
Also recommended is a guided boat tour from La Perla Blu. Cost is 15 Euro per adult, but we opted to pay 20 Euro per person for the private tour and it was well worth it.
Thank you Valeria and Giorgio for letting us stay at your beautiful villa!
