We spent an amazing two plus weeks in this beautiful house! The photos and the description do not really do justice to the size of the house and garden and to the high level of all the amenities. We were with extended family including young children (think babies and toddlers) and everything one could think of was provided for (even including toys in duplicate as the owner apparently has young twins of his own). The pool area is fenced off from the rest of the garden which was of importance to us and much appreciated. Wifi is strong throughout the property due to the use of repeaters. The direct area does not offer much in terms of restaurants/beaches so a car is required in my view. The town of Avola has some options but Siracusa and Noto are within 30 minutes drive both with plenty of variety. The property is managed by Benedetta who has been immensely helpful to us and super sweet to the kids - from welcoming us in person to guide us to the property to providing helpful tips on all sorts of practicalities - she always responded promptly and came by (accompanied by mum or dad) when necessary. I highly recommend this beautiful house to anyone wanting to spend some relaxing time near Avola, especially if you have (young) kids!
