We have absolutely loved staying at Villa Pioppi. I knew from the comments here that the place would be great but it was even better more than I was expected.
Located in a beautiful area surrounded by mountains, olives and fruits trees with a large view on the sea, the house is amazingly clean and well furnished. 20 mn from the beach (not the nicest beach I have seen but it's enough to relax and enjoy), it is perfectly situated to visit east part of Sicilia from Millazzo to Syracuse and even the valley of the seven temples.
We have also appreciated going almost each morning to pick up fresh eggs with the children and the special attentions and the good advises from Orazio. There is also a very nice swimming pool shared with the residents from the other house.
A special thanks to Andrea for his kindness, Orazio and Loredana, his parents and last but not least to Brando, the cutest dog! Thanks to them, we really felt like at home, with family. Carine, Christophe, Evan and Juliette.
