My husband and I had a blissful four days at Fausta's house. She and her dad Bruno -- an architect who designed the house -- were both lovely and very kind and helpful in showing us round. The house itself is very private with a lovely secluded little garden. It's beautifully designed, immaculately clean, and full of lovely antiques and thoughtful touches. (The fridge was stocked with cheese and salami and beer, there was a full fruit bowl, and Bruno even made sure to point out the stock of tea-lights and candles to make it even cosier at night. ) The location is great: a three-minute walk to the beach at the end of the street, and ideally located for exploring the gorgeous coast of southeast Sicily, as well as the Baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa and Scicli, which are all within a 35-minute drive. This surely must be the most stylish holiday rental in the area. Grazie Fausta and Bruno!
