Wow - I’m not quite sure where to start. Our group of 5 adults recently spent four nights at Rino’s amazing home and it was the best Airbnb experience we have ever had. Rino is an attentive, responsive, friendly and gracious host. Top-notch communication and always willing to help. Rino greeted us at the villa upon arrival and showed us around. There are horses, goats, sheep, cows, chickens, all on the surrounding plots of land (so cool). We requested Rino to prepare us a traditional Sicilian dinner on the night we arrived, and it was absolutely delicious. On one day, we had an issue with a tire on our rental car so I reached out to Rino and he immediately set into action to meet us and guide us to the local auto-body shop for a fix. True VIP service that impressed our entire group!
The home is stunning. The sunrise and sunset views are out of this world. The weather was a bit too cold still during our stay to lounge IN the pool, but we took several dips which felt so nice on our bodies and feet after long days of walking or exploring different parts of the island. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and SUPER comfortable beds. Washer and dryer on-site, which is not common to have a dryer but was very useful for us. We had a blast playing Italian Monopoly where we had to google translate every card, many laughs and memories were shared.
Close drive to Cefalu (25 min) where we enjoyed walking the shops, having steak dinner, having drinks by the beach. The CONAD in Campofelice is a super convenient supermarket for supplies. In the villa there is an espresso machine for your morning coffee. I was almost afraid to touch the stunning professional chef’s kitchen, but Rino was so gracious to show me how to use the appliances and stove and I was able to make my Sicilian great-grandmother’s spaghetti sauce, using fresh ingredients from Sicily. What a dream come true!
I could go on and on and on… Rino has developed a spectacular villa experience. JUST STAY HERE! You will not regret it!
