If I could give Guiseppe’s home 10 stars, I would. From the beginning, Giuseppe was clear and kind in his communications. We had no issues arriving due to his specific directions and we were welcomed with open arms, a bottle of wine, and wonderful food basket to start our stay. We spent several weeks at this little slice of Sicilian heaven in a beautiful, undiscovered, almost “secret” part of the island. At less than ten minutes to Menfi, which is a small but nice little town with endearing citizens and delicious cannoli and arancini, the location is perfect. At under 15 minutes you have beautiful, sandy, spacious blue flag beaches with clear and calm waters. Guiseppe remained helpful and at our disposal throughout the trip.
As for the house, we were two adults and incredibly comfortable. We cooked nearly all of our meals there without any issue. We truly felt like it was home. The only neighbors were olive trees and wheat fields creating a luxurious oasis of privacy, perfect for those of us who spend most of the year in a city.
The inside was very comfortable with air conditioning downstairs and upstairs in the bedroom. The loft bedroom featured a comfortable mattress, a spacious closet and storage space, and a fantastic shower. Good water pressure and enough hot water is hard to come by in Italy, but Guiseppe’s place delivered on all fronts.
We spent much of our time in the outside living area with a beautiful, totally private pool and relax areas. I spent many mornings doing yoga by the pool, and then afternoon swims after spending a few hours at the beach followed by beautiful sunsets. There is an outdoor grill which also made for some great dinners. The car park is shaded and the entire area is secure with a gate.
Without hesitation (other than this beautiful wine area becoming discovered!) I recommend Guiseppe’s place.
