Stunning Villa

Where to begin? The villa itself is stunning and the photos don’t do it justice. Have stayed in many rentals homes before but this villa is by far the best equipped. You have everything you would need and the furniture, crockery etc is of the highest standard. There is ample space for a large group. The pool is huge and there are two outdoor eating areas plus two more indoor. The kitchen is one of the highlights and 3 of the four bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms. You can tell that a lot of love and care has gone into this place to make sure that guests have the best time possible. The location is also excellent, nestled between many iconic landmarks in eastern Sicily. Benoit is an excellent host who went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after whilst respecting our privacy. It is somewhere we will definitely be coming back to in the not too distant future.

A lovely property in a fabulous part of Sicily - perfect for relaxing and exploring

We absolutely loved La Mandarola and hope to return. It is a wonderful home, beautifully laid out, spacious and welcoming, and with a delightful variety of well-designed spaces inside and out. We spent a great deal of time sitting at the dining table in the courtyard or up in the shaded area by the pool. Its location makes it generally peaceful and you really do feel you are in an oasis, away from everyone and everything. The wildlife around the property is wonderful – we have never before shared a swimming pool with goldfinches, swallows and a sparrowhawk! We were very happy to see so many lizards, geckos and beautiful butterflies. The gardens around the house are an ongoing project - as gardens always are - and the drive and area around the house are already beautiful. We would love to see how the garden changes with the seasons and matures over coming years. It was wonderful to have the vegetable garden! The aubergines, peppers and tomatoes were flourishing and it was fantastic to be able to cook them fresh from the garden. So, too, the lemons – we’ve never before been able to pop out and pick a lemon from the tree for the evening gin and tonic! The pool is fabulous – it is an excellent size for swimming and the quality of water is wonderful! And Sicily is fabulous. The people are so friendly and welcoming. We made use of our host's kind suggestions for meals out and thoroughly enjoyed it. The landscapes and towns are stunning and there is great food and wine to be enjoyed. We did a fair amount of exploring but were always happy to return home to recharge our batteries at La Mandarola. It is in a great location for exploring the south-east of Sicily – though you do, of course, need a car. (Make sure you visit Modica and eat at Accursio Ristorante if you can - the staff are fabulous and the food is amazing and a joy!) We had to drive from the UK to Sicily and our host gave us invaluable advice on planning our journey down (it made a huge difference for us), and he was on the end of the phone if we had any problems. We were greeted on our arrival by Enzo, who gave us a warm and friendly welcome and was always ready to pop in if needed - it is always reassuring to know you have someone around just in case! We are very grateful to our host for sharing his lovely home in Sicily with us! Thank you!

Wonderful rural Sicily in luxurious quiet villa with beautiful garden .

We had a wonderful stay in Benoit's villa, a fantastic place to relax and enjoy real Sicily , away from crowds. I wish I had spent more time learning Italian ! On a morning walk around the villa and large garden we would find lizards , butterflies , unusual birds ( hoopoe ) It was late season but I managed to find wild cyclamen ! I loved the garden and the pool is great , large enough to swim lengths . The villa is a fantastic place to stay close to Syracuse and beaches in the SE of Sicily ? Everything went to plan and The owner was easily contactable .

Beautiful villa and setting

We had a wonderful 2 weeks with family and friends in this amazingly peaceful rural setting. We made good use of the facilities and equipment provided, including the tennis court, pizza oven ( with Enzo's help !) and the private chef service for a special birthday dinner. The large pool and atmospheric outdoor dining really made the holiday. Slight negative only was the lack of consistent WiFi compounding the need for more information on local facilities.. Thanks Benoit for being such a helpful and responsive host.
