The pictures of the grounds and pool don't do justice to the beauty and serenity. Lovely olive trees are dotted throughout the grounds with lots of open grass. Whether your passion is volleyball or football, there's space enough for both. The pool is spacious and allows both young children and adults to have fun or sit around with drinks in hand, reclining in the sun or shade.
The house has two lovely bedrooms downstairs and another bedroom up a spiral staircase for the kids. There were lots of kitchenware and a nice kitchen overall, with lots of cupboards. The washing services are also good, and well stocked. There were two bathrooms/showers, one inside the house and one outside, comfortable. Another little house with ensuite bedroom gave privacy to another from our party.
The location is close enough to Siracusa to make the trip very convenient. Also, there's a quick ferry close to the house. Several good beaches nearby, we only sampled one and were very pleased. Soft, golden sand, crystal clear water and very organised beach with good ice-cream.
Lastly, the host elected his cousin, Valeria to do check-in and take care of our visit. Valeria and her husband were lovely, welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful.
Overall, very well recommended.
