Die Unterkunft liegt traumhaft am Meer mit Seiten-Blick auf den Ätna. Sie bietet rundum alles was man braucht. Wir waren besonders vom großzügigen Gartengelände mit direktem Zugang zu einer kleinen, attraktiven Felsenbucht und den entsprechenden Möglichkeiten zum Schwimmen und Erkunden angetan. Die Kommunikation und Betreuung durch Francesca war prima.

Villa Bella was very nice and peaceful

When we first arrived the apartment took my breath away on how homely, nice and clean it was. Francesca was great and told us everything we needed to know and even got us a load of food and water which was amazing cause on the first day regrettingly we had no transport. I would say the pictures of the apartment did no justice for it because the outside garden was just as nice as the actual villa. There was a amazing cove just 1 min walk from the villa. There was a supermarket 8 mins walk from the villa but there wasn't too much else close by so I definitely recommend that you rent a car. Luckily in a neighbouring village was a car and scooter hire with good prices. In summary the villa was great and we felt very welcome by everyone we met. Regards Jacob

Urlaub mit Privatstrand zum Erholen

Wir wurden von Francesca und ihrer Familie sehr herzlich willkommen geheißen und bedanken uns nochmals recht herzlich für die Gastfreundschaft. Die Infrastruktur bestehend aus dem Appartement, dem wunderschönen Garten, den Liege- und Sitzmöglichkeiten sowie der Dusche und den Toiletten im Gartenbereich haben wir sehr genossen.

Oase an der Ostküste

Die Villa Bella inmitten eines großen sehr gepflegten Parks ist ein wunderschönes Fleckchen Erde. Sie ist ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt, um die Insel zu erkunden. Am Nachmittag oder Abend freut man sich dorthin zurückzukehren und den Blick auf das Meer sowie die gemütliche Wohnung zu genießen. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich, der Külschrank gefüllt mit Dingen, die man fürs erste braucht. Die Kommunikation mit Francesca, z.T. auch über WhatsApp, war unkompliziert und funktionierte prima. Vielen Dank für eine wunderschöne Woche in der Villa Bella.

Very stylish property and beautiful location !

Villa Bella was a fantastic home from home to stay whilst we were exploring Sicily; from Corleone and Palermo in the northwest to Syracuse and Taormina in the east. The grounds of the villa are beautiful and extensive, even nicer than the pictures with the added luxury of seeing Etna from the lawn! The property itself is very stylish and airy and has every amenity you will need. Francesca and Giuseppe are exceptional hosts and Francesca’s Mother presented us with a wonderful breakfast on our first day of Granita and warm brioche which was truly memorable - Thank You ! We will remember our visit to Sicily and Villa Bella with great affection, Thank you Francesca & Family for your generosity and kindness, Denise & Tony Edwards.

Hinter dem Tor beginnt das Paradies

Ein wunderschönes, ruhiges Anwesen mit vielen Plätzen zum Entspannen, immer mit direktem Blick aufs Meer. Wer früh aufsteht, kann den Sonnenaufgang von der Terrasse beobachten. Ein kleines Tor führt direkt zur felsigen Badestelle. Dort gibt es auch eine Außendusche und Toiletten. Für zwei Personen ist das Haus optimal. Das Schlafzimmer ist mit Klimaanlage ausgestattet, was im Sommer für erholsamen Schlaf sorgt. Francesca ist immer erreichbar, sie und ihre Familie sind perfekte Gastgeber.

Un lieu enchanteur!

Nous avons passé de superbes vacances dans le gîte de Francesca et Giuseppe, sans oublier Paolo et Martha, qui sont des hôtes charmants et très accueillants à l'image des Siciliens,. Le gîte est très bien équipé et confortable. Il est situé dans un superbe domaine donnant accès à une plage de rochers privée très appréciable. La terrasse donnant sur la mer est un vrai bonheur pour l'apéritif au coucher du soleil. Les vacances idéales!

Idyllic elegance and natural beauty

Villa Bella is a very special place. We felt privileged to be there, experiencing the quiet beauty of the well-established and elegant gardens leading down to the private swimming cove. The accommodation is separate from the main, family house, and we had privacy yet were made most welcome by Francesca and her charming family when going up to the terrace for a better internet signal. We managed perfectly well without a hire car, with a wonderful supermarket just a few minutes walk up a lane hedged with jasmine and bougainvillea. We were only staying for a few nights, looking for peace and tranquility, pasta, wine, the opportunity for a little snorkeling, sunshine. We found it all here.

Perfekte Erholung und sizilianische Städte besichtigen

Das schön nach rustikal, sizilianischen Stil eingerichtete Haus mit eigenem Eingang steht am herrlichen Garten mit Blick aufs Meer und Zugang zur Bucht, ca. 130 m. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig und selten schön. Die Ausrichtung nach NO lässt auch im Sommer die Zimmer angenehm bewohnen. Gehobene praktische Ausstattung. Die freundliche und hilfsbereite Vermieterin Francesca machte unseren Aufenthalt perfekt. Das Auto parkte sicher im verschlossenem Anwesen. Einkaufen im Supermarkt ca. 1 km. Vom Standort waren über gebührenfreie Autobahnen die Sehenswürdigkeiten, z.B. von Ätna, Catania, Siracusa, Enna, Noto, Ragusa, etc. relativ schnell erreichbar.

Lovely private paradise

The apartment is cosy, clean and with all you need. Outside you have your one terrace with sea view, and a small walk through the beautyful garden leads to the almost private rockey beach with good snorkling. Fransesca, her family and the staff are very kind and helpful with ideas for sightseeing and restaurants. The place is a good location between Siracusa and Catania and for visiting the east coast.
