House / Villa - Menfi

The house in Menfi is superb. We stayed for only one week and wish it had been longer. Angelo and Franka are wonderful hosts. The house was very clean, cool and well equipped. It was everything we had hoped for but delivered much more. The gardens are incredible and Angelo was kind and gave us a tour - he has over 500 varieties of cactus. We felt instantly at home and so relaxed. Itwas quiet and peaceful, there is only nature and a gentle breeeze here. The sea is a short walk away through the fields and the beach had only a few people other than ourselves! The beach is pristine and the water warm and inviting. Angelo and Franka live in the adjoining house and were so kind to us during our stay. We were treated like family and they have inspired us to learn Italian for when we return. The nearest town is Menfi but the house enables you to visit so many places. We would definitely recommend this accommodation for anyone who enjoys true peace and tranquility in such a marvellous location. Thank you so much to Angelo and Franka for allowing us to stay in such a lovely house David and Claire

We had a wonderful time staying here with our 5 month old baby. Angelo and Franca were so kind and went well out of their way to make us feel comfortable and help us get our bearings in the local area. The apartment is simple and good quality, with lots of outside space. It is attached to the host's house, so they are nearby to help, but feels private, and the cactus garden is spectacular. It's really wild here-on the short walk to the sea we saw snakes, lizards, and lots of insects, as well as all the cats and one very big dog at the house-very exciting for the baby. We will miss sitting out listening to cicadas and, on a windy day, the sea.

We have just stayed a week at Angelo's and Franka's house. I would highly recommend this place everyone who likes nature, wants to stay in a calm place and swim at the beautiful beach with no people at all (well, may be 8-10 people you will see there somewhere faraway in August). The owners of the house live in another part of the house. They are ready to give you any advice or help that you need but at the same time they are respecting your privacy. They are one of the kindest people we met and we would like to meet with them again and come to their place. Our children are talking about the cats and dog that live there - they were paying with them all the time.

This is a rare gem to find. If you like a simple peaceful self catering holiday I would highly recommend Angelo & Franca's property. Lovely clean beaches that you can walk to, food shopping 10 minutes drive away and good restaurants also close by. The property is clean, fresh and tidy and has all you need for self catering (if you need anything else Angelo or Franca will I'm sure find it for you).They were and are the most wonderful of hosts and so helpful without being intrusive. After years of self catering holidays this is a wonderful find. Can't recommend enough
