luxury villa in perfect secluded setting

With extraordinary views of the Med to one side, and even more extraordinary views all the way to Mt.Etna on the other - I don't think it's possible to choose a better setting than Casa Pedro in Sicily. The villa itself is exquisite - modern, clean, the latest in everything! Supping a cold one in the infiniti pool whilst watching the sun fall below the hills and mountains isn't a bad way to end the day! Hidden at the top of a hill just outside Noto it feels like you're a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of the beach/bars/restaurants and local towns - but actually you're only 15 mins away from the sea. So when the mood takes you and you need a beer and a perfect pasta lunch, there are so many great authentic Sicilian places to sample. The sea is crystal clear turquoise, and warm. The beaches are spotless with miles of sand to wander on - perfect for the kids. If you want to venture further afield you can hit Syracuse and check out the extraordinary food markets as well as the awe-inspiring ancient Greek and Roman ruins. All in all; Casa Pedro is one of the coolest villas you can stay in, in the most amazing setting, in one of the Med's greatest islands! I'll def be back!

Brilliant villa with stunning views

We had the most amazing time in Sicily. Tom was helpful throughout and it was great to meet him in person during our stay. The villa has stunning views across the nature reserve to the sea. It has all that anyone could need to ensure aholiday runs smoothly. It is also very well situated for trips to Noto and Siracusa. It is secluded but that adds to the villa's charm. We will be back one day. Andrew and Tam

A cool and comfy home in a hugely evocative setting

We found this a great base to explore Baroque southern Sicily and the beaches and coastal towns. The sleeping and living accommodation are well equipped, stylish and comfortable and the landscaping, pool and landscape are stunning. Time can stand still in this secluded location amonsgt the olive groves but there is so much more to explore in the area.

A most enjoyable getaway.

Renting the house was no problem, Tom was always very responsive and helpful. We stayed at the house first week of September 2016. Allthough remotely located and only reachable after an 8 minute drive over a dirt road, we had no problem finding the way to the house thanks to Google Navigation. Giovanni, the neighboring farmer, was there to let us in and showed us around. The house is best located on top of a gentle hill, giving the house stunning views over the vendicari reserve towards the sea as well as a wide inland view. The garden is beautiful and most generous. The pool is huge, well maintained and really enoyable, our kids loved it. The house is big enough for 8 people, having 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The house offers all amenities you need and is also well maintained, considering the secluded location. It is a perfect hideaway and provides tranquility, if this is what you are looking for. We enjoyed our stay and can definitely recommend it.

A perfect family break

Our holiday was perfect in every way, the house was beautiful, comfortable and a cool escape from the heat. The pool was large enough to swim properly and the views from everywhere were stunning. This was our first family holiday together in quite some time so all the above made it very special. We would definitely like a return visit.

About the host

Why they chose this property

We bought the land first and then built the house and landscaped around the house over the following few years.

The location has amazing views and it is remote and peaceful whilst being close enough to neighbours, shops, beaches and local towns and villages to be convenient and practical.

What makes this property unique

Sicily still has a slow and civilised pace of life, highly sophisticated and cultured, while still being a little rough around the edges which makes it just the perfect place .
