The villa is set possibly on the most scenic spot of the island.
The upper terrace with pools provides unobstructed view of the full Pollara bay with magnificent sunset over Alicudi and Filicudi. Truly amazing. The gardens are also beautiful with olive trees, figs, prickly pears, lemon trees with fruits that you can pick and enjoy if in season. Also a variety of aromas (rosemary, sage, basil) mixes up with the Mediterranean mist, making the location simply magical.
All the reported pictures reflect exactly what you will find and the house is well maintained. Only minor challenges you need to be aware of: a) should you need daily housecleaning you need to book that months ahead during peak season; b) the pool is a plunge pool (I.e. not suitable for swimming) and features a jacuzzi system (unfortunately this was out of order during our stay); c) you are in a very rural area: wasps are tedious both when you dine outdoors and when you refresh in the plunge pool; d) the house is as close to the sea as possible yet the local beach is no longer accessible (due to to a landslide) . You can still walk to and swim into super beautiful Pollara bay but this will take about 10 minutes of trail walk at times quite steep.
