Beautiful & homely villa with amazing views
I booked this for 1 week with my husband , in-laws and 20 month daughter. Lovely villa , fully equipped (especially with fantastic toys that my daughter loved) Very child friendly on both the villa& courtyard and pool and sun deck area. Definitely big enough for a family to cook, eat and relax. The outside kitchen and shaded eating area are also ideal. Gaetano was always contactable for even the smallest things (even offered to help when we got a puncture) There are local supermarkets/ amenities pretty close and we enjoyed quite a few evening meals at the taking in the view and beautiful sunsets ! And enjoying drinks on the Sun deck . Just as advice for people booking, the road up to the villa ( like most of the hill roads ) is a bit steep/ dirt track so consider a hire car with a bit a clearance and power might be advisable if you’re going to be fully loaded. We’d definitely go back and recommend for friends . Thank you Gaetano !!

A beautiful villa with breathtaking views -
Villa Ibiscus is a large, spotlessly clean villa with absolutely breathtaking views. We sat for hours on the terrace both during the day and in the evening just gazing out on the ever-changing colours of the sea and mountains. As others have said, the photos here really don't do it justice. We do, however, have a couple of reasons for not giving this property the full five stars - 1) The track up to it can certainly be problematic, particularly in the dark or in bad weather, it's steep and rocky and our small car struggled in places, especially if we had to stop half way up to let another vehicle pass. If you're not used to this kind of driving then we would strongly recommend making sure you have a powerful car with a high wheel-base, and if possible a 4x4. 2) There was no real internet. The owner provided a plug-in 'web cube' and asked for 20 Euros in cash for it when we arrived, it didn't really work very well and only lasted a few days. 3) The property is quite a long way from any shops and quite a long drive away from any supermarkets. It would be good to have some supplies provided for when you arrive. The owner did sell his wine in the property for 20 Euros but no other supplies were provided. 4) We were told not to use the pizza oven. 5) Although the check-out time is stated as 11am, we were asked to leave at 9.30am as the owner had to clean the property for the next guests, although he did concede that we could stay until 10am after we pointed this out. These are all minor quibbles however, and not intended as a criticism, more as tips for how the property could be even better. Ultimately it is a clean modern villa with the most beautiful views, and a wonderful place to spend a holiday in Sicily.

Hier kann man herrlich Entspannen
Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit! Gaetano hat uns super instruiert und sogar noch Obst, Wasser und Kaffee spendiert. Für die angenehm abgeschiedene Lage in wilder Natur nahmen wir den "Aufstieg" und drei sehr anhängliche, aber friedliche Straßenhunde vor dem Tor gerne in Kauf (Gelände ist umzäunt). Die Aussicht ist jedenfalls phänomenal! Ansonsten noch besonders positiv hervorzuheben: Babybett, Mückengitter, Pool-Terrasse Herzliche Grüße!

Super Aussicht!
Fantastische Lage mit wunderbarer Aussicht, ob Tag oder Nacht. Die Villa bietet alles was man so braucht. Grosse schöne Zimmer und Bäder. Speziell zu erwähnen ist die Aussenküche mit Abwaschgelegenheit, 4 Kochfelder, Backofen, ein Grill und super Pizzaofen. Alles unter gedeckter Terrasse und viel Platz (wir habe nur 3 Mal auswärts gegessen, sonst immer die Aussenküche benutzt, fantastisch!). Es gibt auch ein Trinkwasseranschluss, somit entfällt die Wasserschlepperei vom Supermarkt. Ein Geschoss tiefer befindet sich der Pool mit Dusche und Sitzgelegenheit. Alles ist so wie auf den Bildern oder vor Ort noch imposanter. Gaetano hat uns herzlich begrüsst und alles erklärt. Auch hat er einmal pro Woche den Pool gereinigt und den Abfall (getrennt: Papier-Karton, Glas, Plastic, Organisch und Allg.) entsorgt, wobei immer im Voraus eine WhatsApp-Anmeldung zugestellt. Wir fühlten uns in der Villa sehr wohl und haben unsere vier Wochen sehr genossen. Wir können diese Villa ohne Vorbehalt sehr empfehlen. Lieber Gaetano nochmals herzlichen Dank für Alles! Beste Grüsse Urs und Bruno

Why they chose this property

Villa Ibiscus is the family vacation house with wonderful views to the sea at the foot of the natural reserve called "Pizzo Cane, Pizzo Trigna, Grotta Mazzamuto". It's livable all year because with autonomous heating and wood-burning fireplace. The private swimming pool of 32 square meters deep m. 1,50 is running from May to September. The villa is located about 2 km. from the main highway that will allow you to take a tour of tha magnificient Sicily, land of millennial history, rich in monuments, sun and sea, inhabited by hospitable people. I rent the house for a few years already and I'have had a lot of positive feedback as evidenced by major industry sites (ex. Casamundo website).
