Pierpaolo’s house was clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. There was plenty of space for our family of four and the huge garden was lovely with great views. The Villa is part of a complex but it is quiet and the Villa itself is at the end of all the properties so is quite private. There is a Villa next door which was unoccupied when we stayed but if there had been guests, the garden would have been a bit less private.
Calabernardo is a tiny town but there are a couple of places to eat and there is a little promenade for an evening passeggiata.
The Villa is well located for visiting the beautiful towns nearby (we went to Noto, Ragusa, Modica, Ortigia, and Marzamemi which were all amazing). There are also stunning beaches just a short drive away. The closest beach is also nice and uncrowded but when we were there, there was quite a lot of seaweed on the shore and occasionally a bit of a smell (but I think it depends on the time of year and on the tide so it may not always be like that).
Pierpaolo was a very responsive and attentive host. We had a couple of problems during our stay which Pierpaolo sorted out swiftly.
