Villa for 12/14 people garden, pool, bbq, 100 meters from the sea, A / C, wi-fi

We had a lovely time at this villa - we were 3 families with children and enjoyed the pool and garden areas with the outdoor kitchen.

We really enjoyed our stay at the villa. It was great to split our day between the pool and beach. We shopped locally at the Coop, wine merchants, pasticceria, butchers and fish market. We can’t wait to return next year!

We were an extended family of 8 adults and 4 kids at age 1 to 74 that had a fantastic holiday in the villa. The layout of the house with 5 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and the additional room on the top floor worked perfect for us. The pool and the pool area was the perfect hang out place and the kids enjoyed not only the pool, as did all of the adults, but also the play area in the garden. The two kitchens, one on the ground floor with access from the garden area, offered great flexibility. We cooked a lot in house and enjoyed al fresco dining at the large table in the garden area. Grocery stores (supermarkets, butcher, vegetable, and wine shops) are literally at the door step to the Villa as are many other shops and restaurants. A great bonus was also the fact that the beach was so close; we alternated between the pool and the beach several times per day. You need a car to get here but not once you reach the Villa. Last but not least, the hospitality and attentiveness of Melina and Guglielmo were exceptional, they do care about their guests in a way that we've not experienced before. Thank you so much! We have rented many fantastic houses at different locations in Italy but this is undoubtedly one of the top ones!

Absolutely stunning stay

A wonderful stay. The villa was perfect for a group of 9 and there something for everyone. We loved being near the beach and having the beautiful pool and grounds to relax in. Melina and Guglielmo could not have been more welcoming, responsive and helpful.

We had a lovely stay in a beautiful house with rooms and space both indoor and outdoor for a 3 generation familiy of 15 persons age 1 to 67! The house and garden were beautifully decorated, all rooms had well functioning AC. The surroundings with a nice clean beach, supermarket and restaurants were perfect, and we did not need a car. The host were most friendly, professional, helpful and service minded. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a large and beautiful property in Italy/Sicilia for vacation!

Phenomenal! Melina and her husband were superb hosts, and we can't say enough about this place. We were a large family across three generations (ages 6 to 76); everyone had a blast. The grandparents stayed in the extra two suites that are a separate building while the younger generations had their run of the larger house. We grilled, we swam in the pool, we took in the garden, we walked to the beach and various restaurants. This is a very special place, with various shops within 2-3 blocks (a gelato shop, a wine store with local wine, a butcher shop, a grocer, various restaurants). Day trips included Scicli, Caltagirone, and Ragusa, all recommended (Noto too). You'll want a car to get here but then you can park it and have everything you need within walking distance, among the most beautiful surroundings and fixtures, with the dearest and highly responsive hosts nearby. This might just be the best rental I've enter encountered.

I fully agree with all previous comments. We were a family of 9 people including 2 grandchildren. We cooked most of the meals buying meat at the butcher and fish at the harbour. The pool was great. Wine shop and grocery shop very close. We already want to go back.

We were a family of 10 with two small children. The Villa had everything you could want in fantastic surroundings - large, peaceful garden, good size pool, play area and lots of shady seating areas. It is located close to food shops, including a very good butcher and wine shop and is a very short walk to the beach. Melina was extremely helpful with all our needs. We used the chef services on two nights which worked very well for us. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

Villa and the garden were very nice and provided a beautiful scenery to spend the holiday. Couple of nice restaurants in short walking distance and also the beach is very close. We spent most of our time in the pool & in the shadows due to very hot weather. This was our first time in Sicily and have to say that logistically Donnalucata was not the best place to explore the island, as the roads near to town were in poor shape. Meaning that it was not feasible to do any day trips to touristic attractions, but of course the hot weather was also one reason for this.

The house and garden are beautiful: mature trees and flowers provide shade and privacy and the spacious house provided ample room to sleep our group of 12 and have spaces for sitting, meeting eating, etc. Well-equipped kitchens (2, one in the garden), a pool, BBQ, table-tennis, sun loungers, etc ensured that all could enjoy the sunny weather. Shops very close by provided all we needed and local restaurants were good. Highly recommended.
