Perfection
Placido and Alessandra could not do enough for us. The villa was superb with everything you could want. From the moment we arrived, we relaxed. Would recommend getting a car, it gave us the independence to explore and go shopping.

**ABSOLUTE PERFECTION** Would stay again in a heartbeat
Villa Papardo was an absolute delight! The property is beautiful and the Villa delivers exactly as advertised. My wife was in heaven from the instant we arrived as she is a bit of a neat-freak and the property was spotless from top to bottom (she wants to hire the cleaners!). We were driving a rental car which worked out perfectly. The property was a bit tricky to find (it's Italy!) but with Placedo's instructions we made without too much hassle and had tons of room to park within the gated property. The location was actually perfect for us as we went on a lot of day trips and the property is 5-10 minutes from the highway entrance. The landscaping of the property is immaculate and the private pool was a daily delight for our family - especially during the heat wave. Everything was so well maintained and obvious as you dipped into the crystal clear waters of the pool. If that was not already enough, Placedo and his representative Alessandra were both amazing. Placedo is a true Super-Host, responsive, helpful, and truly and sincerely wants his guests to have an amazing stay. His recommendations for local restaurants, bars (coffee shops), and other information were spot on (especially Giuseppe Bellia La Pasticceria for your morning coffee and baked delights - don't waste time anywhere else! Amazing and a fantastic value!). We can't say enough about Placedo and his property - absolutely amazing stay and will definitely stay again next time we travel to the area.

What a beautiful home! You will feel like your at your own home. Property is spotless and well taken care of with a security gate to make you feel safe. Great location in a nice town with good local food spots. The owner and his family are very nice and they keep to themselves giving you all the privacy you need. I wouldn't think twice in staying here again. Thank you for your hospitality.

Beautiful villa in a fab location
My family and I stayed here for a week and couldn’t have picked a more perfect place. Placido the owner is so welcoming and gave us lots of great recommendations. He and his family live upstairs but you never see them and have complete privacy of the pool and garden. The villa is so spacious. My boys loved the pool and the hot tub bath which we all fit in. I would recommend hiring a car and travelling about. Giardini Naxos and Taormina is less than 20 minutes away which we visited most days/evenings. Thank you Placido for such a magical stay

The property was stunning, pool incredible and his willingness to help with suggestions on places and sights and restaurants was incredible. One of the best we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend anyone looking to stay in great location and superb property book Villa Papardo.

Voor dat de vakantie begonnen was al zeer prettig contact gehad met de eigenaar betreft vragen over de omgeving etc. Dit goede contact werd doorgezet bij aankomst. De eigenaar stond dag en nacht klaar om je vragen te beantwoorden. Wij hebben ons verblijf in Villa Papardo als uitstekend ervaren.

Très belle propriété, bien située
La propriété et le jardin sont magnifiques et très bien entretenus , tout a été pensé avec beaucoup de goût. Les propriétaires habitent au dessus mais on les entend très peu et la piscine est réservée aux locataires. Les seuls bémols sont qu'il n'y a que deux vraies chambres (avec porte) et qu'il n'y a pas de store / volet dans les chambres.

Paradise in Sicily
The colors, Etna, and the magnificent pool with lots of greenery around it are the outline for a perfect holiday! The Jacuzzi and the large kitchen complete the puzzle.

Nicht Alles ist Gold, was glänzt
Die Ausstattung und der Außenbereich entsprechen der Beschreibung. Wirklich sehr gehoben. ABER Es ist keine Villa vermietet worden ,sondern nur der Keller. Die Zimmer hatten keine Fenster mit Blick in die Umgebung. Es gibt kein drittes Schlafzimmer, sondern ein Doppelbett im Fitnessraum, welcher offen war und so jeder Badbesucher am Schlafenden vorbei musste.
