A beautiful old Sicilian villa in a lovely setting overlooking the sea and a 5 minute walk to the beach and 15 minutes to a good beach restaurant. The outside seating areas and kitchen are very cool and shady and at the weekend we had a very enjoyable and relaxing time there. The inside of the house, although clean and spacious, has not been well maintained and sofas are old and uncomfortable and electric old fashioned wiring meant there were a limited supply of electric sockets for charging our laptops, phones etc. Wifi signal was good.
As we were spending most of our time outside , it did not really matter and we had a great weekend popping down to swim in the sea and coming back to laze in the shady villa garden.
Unfortunately on the Monday the builders started work building a house next door and on returning from our early morning swim we were hit by a barrage of noise of drills, angle grinders, chainsaws etc.
We contacted Antonio who spoke to the builders and said they had agreed to work quietly. We were very sceptical about this and sure enough within half an hour of Antonio leaving the drilling started up again and continued until the end of the day . As there is no airconditioning inside the house, it became very hot inside as we closed windows and shutters as we tried to escape the noise.
We were going to stay for a month but we left the next day as we chose the villa for its peace and tranquility.
Air Bnb resolution team were very helpful in resolving the issue between us, very disappointed customers and Antonio, understandably annoyed and frustrated host.
