Great place to stay!
Posted Aug. 17, 2024 on HomeAwayLovely property, the outside area and pool are fabulous. The place was spotlessly clean when we arrived. Cinzia was super helpful with restaurant recommendations and helped us book a really good boat trip. Couple of good local pizzerias within 15-20 minutes walk, as well as a bar and an excellent bakery. We had a great week!

TERRIBLE - Do not stay here
Posted Oct. 14, 2019 on HomeAwayWe had a dreadful experience at this property. Arrived to find the place not thoroughly clean and one of the bedrooms up a very steep set of wooden steps on top of the kitchen - there was no railing along the top so it was not safe. The house is also tiny and way smaller than it looks in the pictures; and you have to go across a yard to reach the swimming pool, which feels quite disconnected from the property.
On the first night, there were high winds and the electricity went. The plug sockets started omitting burning smells (the wiring was clearly old and not safe), so we had to plug out all appliances in the dark to prevent a fire. Next, the water went. The next day, we had no electricity, no water and no air conditioning.
We asked to move on given the circumstances but the owner refused to give us a refund for remaining nights. She spent the next two days shouting and roaring - coming into the apartment telling us "you don't own this, you have just rented it, so I can come and go as I please". [I have a video to show anyone interested - truly insane and would probably go viral!] She insisted on being paid in cash when we made the booking - do not stay here, but if you do - DO NOT PAY ANY BALANCE IN CASH as you will have zero protection from VRBO.
Various issues kept arising after the electricity, water and air con going - e.g., a broken fridge, broken fan, broken lights. Needs a serious refurb and the owners are horrible - they only about making as much money as possible and couldn't care less about guest experience.

Lovely quiet place in the sun
Posted Sep. 11, 2019 on HomeAwayWe thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks at this villa, thanks to the warm welcome of the owner, semi-rural location near a wonderful beach and delightful pool area, which our children especially enjoyed.
The house is clean and has everything you could need. Cinzia, the owner, also helped to book tables at nearby restaurants, the one 5 minutes walk away is especially good, and recommended several places we could visit. The early morning visits by the local baker were also much appreciated. There is nothing quite like fresh croissants and warm, crusty bread every day.
Would recommend a trip to Erice (we went twice - 2nd time just for the food) and Segesta, which are both not too far away. San Vito Lo Capo has a great beach and is only 15 minutes drive away, with parking costing only 5 Euros for the entire day. There are towels, umbrellas etc. in the house you can use so you don't need to rent anything at the beach (and you can save some weight allowance for duty free on the way back).
All-in-all a great time and we would thoroughly recommend it for a lazy, relaxing stay.

Fantastic house in beautiful location
Posted Jun. 7, 2019 on HomeAwayGreat location only a short drive from San Vito Lo Capo.
The pool area was fantastic and the the house clean. The owner was really helpful and talked us in after we got a little lost finding the property and went out of her way to find out information for us about a local vineyard tour and allowed us a late check out.
We had a super meal at a restaurant that was a 5 minute walk away.
Only thing that would have made it absolutely perfect was a kettle in the kitchen for making tea!!

Spectacular Sicilian setting
Posted Aug. 1, 2018 on HomeAwayThe beautiful garden and fantastic pool were the highlights of this typically Sicilian property. Although a car is necessary to best enjoy the spectacular rural location
- dominated by craggy hills with a clear view of the nearby sea - bustling San Vito Lo Capo is just 10 minutes drive away with fascinating western Sicilian sites like Segesta and Erice within easy reach. Cinzia the property owner was super friendly and easy to deal with and even saved the day when we got a nail in our tire. Thank you!

Relaxing stay in charming villa
Posted Jun. 14, 2017 on HomeAwayWe had a wonderful week in Cinzia's property. The garden is magnificent, the views to die for. Our three daughters spent a lot of the week in the lovely swimming pool. The property has everything you would wish for - enough space for a family of 5, free wi-fi through-out the property and garden, modern clean appliances, a lovely outdoor eating area. We loved that the local baker called to the house every morning with fresh pastries too!! San Vito lo Capo is a gorgeous town and less than 10 minutes away by car - but what a drive it is too, such incredible scenery! We hope to return next year.

Endroit très sympa
Posted Jul. 29, 2024 on HomeAwayMaison indépendante dans un petit groupe de 5 ou 6 maisons au milieu des oliviers. Tranquillité assurée. La maison est très fonctionnelle, et les extérieurs avec le jardin, la salle à manger extérieure et surtout la piscine sont très agréable. Cinzia a été très arrangeante, dans une relation basée sur la confiance. Un très bon séjour de 10 jours en famille!
