Olga is a very responsive and flexible host. We also had the opportunity to meet Lucia (the owner) and this only added to our pleasure of staying here. This house itself is not just spacious and well equiped (we stayed confortably for a week as a family of five), but it also has a lot of soul. An olive tree, palm trees and chestnut trees (one of which is covererd with a magnificent bougainvillier) will welcome you on the driveway. The house is surrounded by century old olive trees and an incredible garden with a great variety of mediterranean and exotic plants, succulents, flowers and trees (a.o. pomegenate, but I also found a latin-american ceibo, an australian "bottle brush", and I believe to have recognised some african acacias). In the orchard you'll find an almond tree, nuts, but of course also lemons and oranges... And I didn't even mention the cactus section of the garden... The house has also various outside spaces to relax, and even to take a nap. According to the position of the sun, and the time of the year, you'll have the opportunity to choose. If you want to taste locally produced almonds and olive oil, we can recommend casamandolio.com If you like looking at the stars, try the terrace at night, putting out the lights of the house; a great view on the milky way... In other words, if you like gardens and/or want to taste the Sicilian way of life on the countryside, this is a highly recommendable place!
