Fabulous Holiday!
The garden around the pool is beautiful and the pool was crystal clear and maintained daily early in the morning before most of us had surfaced for the day.
We all enjoyed cracking open fresh almonds and collecting eggs from the chicken coop.
The beauty of the setting is further enhanced by the backdrop of the Hyblaean mountains and the sweeping views of the sea beyond Avola
The villa is well equipped for cooking which we did for several evening meals. I can also recommend take away pizza which we collected from Pizzamore in Avola.
We did the car share with the owners Corrado & Isabella who provided a Fiat 500L that was in immaculate condition. Usually we end up hiring a much bigger car to manage luggage from the airport run but as Corrado and his nephew met us at the airport with the Fiat they were able to take 2 cases in Corrado’s Citroen. Having a slightly smaller car proved a great bonus later when trying to find tight parking spaces or navigating narrow streets in places like Noto and Palazzolo.
We had asked ahead about table tennis and Corrado kindly sourced a ping pong table which we hired for our stay and had great fun playing in the cooler parts of the day.
Corrado was so helpful in having a missing delayed suitcase delivered to his house in Avola and bringing it up to the villa for us.
The villa is an old family home and has been lovingly cared for by Corrado and Isabella whom we would like to thank once again for being the most wonderfully gracious of hosts.
