We stayed at Castelmola villa for 1 week.
The villa was situated in the mountains with a stunning view over the valley , the bay of Naxos and the volcano Etna. You have to drive on mountain route for about half an hour by car, from the coastal road to attempt the villa. The silence and the view and the environment are magnificent and will make the effort of driving forgotten when you arrive.
The villa is spacious and comfortable and with a fire on gas and cutlery and pots and pans. There are even kitchen towels and table cover.You have a spacious balcony with a beautiful sight over the valley.
We grilled our fish on a large bbq. There is charcoal and all you need for that.
There is a large swimming pool and all the space and comfort around to sit near the pool. There are bath towels enough and even parasols for beach.
Cettina, Francesco wife, was a very warm and helpful lady.
She answers whatsap messages very quick.
We went to the open air opera and she and her brother picked us up in the evening and brought us back in the middle of the night because they used to climb the road to the villa by night.
We have climbed on the Etna and visited the Alcantara gorges nearby. There is useful tourist information at the house.
There are many beaches close to the place, we just need to drive down the hill and then many choices for nice beaches.
Francesco brought us fig and grapes and cactus fruits from the huge garden.
Thanks a lot, all of you, we have had a wonderful time in Sicily!
