Lovely villa in good location. Wonderful hosts.
We had a really lovely time at this villa. The owners, Sara and Mimmo, were incredibly kind and helpful. We were greeted with a delicious meal, which after a delayed flight and trouble with hiring our car was gratefully received! The villa itself is in a residential area so feels very authentic and not at all touristy which for us was great. The villa has everything you need. The beaches near the villa were lovely with beautiful clear blue seas. You do need a car but it is in a good location to visit other areas. We visited Taormina, Mount Etna, Santa Venerina, Acireale , as well as Acicastello and Torre Archirafi. There is still plenty to see and we hope to visit again soon.

Fantastic villa , well equipped and very hospitable hosts!
We had a wonderful stay at this villa on the east coast of Sicily. The owners could not have been more welcoming, staying up late (we were delayed by lengthy hire car check in process) to greet us and provide us with a typical Sicilian meal and a guided tour of the villa. The villa was really well equipped: we could have entertained a large party of guests, lots of towels and I cannot think of anything that I missed from my kitchen at home.The swimming pool is a very good size for a villa of this price. It was cleaned regularly. The garden is planted with wonderful trees and shrubs including a Jasmine which filled the evening air with a delightful scent as we dined "al fresco." The owners had lots of good suggestions for places to visit. The Villa is located a little way in from the coast but this is easily accessed by car in a short time. We did lots of snorkelling, climbed Mount Etna and day tripped to Taormina, ,Syracuse and saw some amazing mosaics at a roman Villa near Enna. Ragusa and Noto ( possibly the best ice cream in the world) to the south east are also worth a visit. Days spent reading by the pool and generally relaxing were also great! If you enjoy music and the Arts there are concerts held in the ancient Greek theatre at Taormina and an international music festival at Ragusa. At Noto there was a Picasso and Frida Kahlo event. Great villa in a good location. The owners speak really good French as well as German and Spanish. We are very happy to recommend this villa and will definitely return if we can. Thank you

A prime location for comfort and exploration
If you want to be pampered, Italianised and spoiled for choice, go to Mimmo and Sarah's!❤️ On top of falling in love with Sicily, you will become addicted to Mimmo and Sarah's house. The biggest danger of staying there is that you never want to leave the house and may miss out on all the wonders around you.

Sehr schöne und saubere Anlage mit nicht ganz optimaler Lage
Die Anlage ist innen sowie außen sehr schön und absolut sauber. Alles sehr geräumig und man fühlt sich sehr wohl. Auch der Pool ist echt riesig und für eine Abkühlung und zum Schwimmen hervorragend. Der Empfang war sehr nett und wir bekamen sogar spät abends ein hervorragendes Abendessen mit Gemüse aus eigenem Anbau. Das war genau das Richtige nach einer langen Reise. Das einzige was uns nicht so gefallen hat war die Lage des Hauses, da man ohne eigenes Auto nichts erreichen konnte. Das ist bei dem sizilianischen Verkehr sehr anstrengend und nichts für schwache Nerven. Dies ist deshalb der einzige Grund warum die Gesamtbewertung einen Stern weniger von uns bekommt. Das ist aber nur unsere Meinung und wenn man damit kein Problem hat, hat man dort auf jeden Fall seine Ruhe und die Anlage hätte fünf Sterne verdient. Ansonsten war alles super und die Anlage ist absolut empfehlenswert um einen schönen Urlaub zu machen! Wir (4 Leute) hatten für 7 Tage auf jeden Fall einen schönen und unvergesslichen Urlaub! Vielen herzlichen Dank an Sara & Mimmo für Ihre Gastfreundschaft!

Sehr hübsches Haus mit Pool
Wir hatten 10 wunderbare Tage in Riposto. Das Haus ist groß - 3 Schlafzimmer, 2 Badzimmer - hat eine voll ausgestattete Küche, TV, Internet, genügend Handtücher, Bettwäsche und alles, was man braucht. Mimmo und Sara haben uns am Abend der Ankunft mit einem leckeren Essen verwöhnt, die 'Grundausstattung' für's erste Frühstück war ebenfalls schon da. Außerdem gab es selbstgekochte Marmelade und frische Orangen aus dem eigenen Garten. Die Umgebung ist nicht so toll, man braucht ein Auto zum Einkaufen und Essen gehen. Einkaufen ist in Riposto gut möglich - es gibt einen tollen Fisch- und Gemüsemarkt.

Super Séjour
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Sarah et Mimo, ce sont des personnes merveilleuses, très agréables, très disponibles et de très bons conseils pour visiter cette région de la Sicile et en plus très discrètes. la logement est parfait, très propre, décoré avec goût, beaucoup d'espace, tout est à disposition des locataires, un excellent repas préparé par la gentille Sarah, nous attendait à notre arrivée. il est vraiment rare de trouver une location comme celle là, c'etait vraiment génial. un conseil, allez y en toute confiance !!!!
