We were four adults, a nine-year-old and a two-year-old staying for nine nights in August.
The Villa has real charm and bags of character. We really enjoyed staying in Viagrande which enabled us to explore Etna, Avola and Taormina. And use of the well-maintained pool was a plus. The owners, Marco and his father, were very friendly and accommodating and a pleasure to deal with.
It’s not quite ‘all mod cons’ but the charm and character of the place - for us - more than made up for any little niggles. It is, after all, a very old property, probably dating from the 1800s, and also in our view incredibly good value.
