Villa Bella was very nice and peaceful
When we first arrived the apartment took my breath away on how homely, nice and clean it was. Francesca was great and told us everything we needed to know and even got us a load of food and water which was amazing cause on the first day regrettingly we had no transport. I would say the pictures of the apartment did no justice for it because the outside garden was just as nice as the actual villa. There was a amazing cove just 1 min walk from the villa. There was a supermarket 8 mins walk from the villa but there wasn't too much else close by so I definitely recommend that you rent a car. Luckily in a neighbouring village was a car and scooter hire with good prices. In summary the villa was great and we felt very welcome by everyone we met. Regards Jacob

Very stylish property and beautiful location !
Villa Bella was a fantastic home from home to stay whilst we were exploring Sicily; from Corleone and Palermo in the northwest to Syracuse and Taormina in the east. The grounds of the villa are beautiful and extensive, even nicer than the pictures with the added luxury of seeing Etna from the lawn! The property itself is very stylish and airy and has every amenity you will need. Francesca and Giuseppe are exceptional hosts and Francesca’s Mother presented us with a wonderful breakfast on our first day of Granita and warm brioche which was truly memorable - Thank You ! We will remember our visit to Sicily and Villa Bella with great affection, Thank you Francesca & Family for your generosity and kindness, Denise & Tony Edwards.

Idyllic elegance and natural beauty
Villa Bella is a very special place. We felt privileged to be there, experiencing the quiet beauty of the well-established and elegant gardens leading down to the private swimming cove. The accommodation is separate from the main, family house, and we had privacy yet were made most welcome by Francesca and her charming family when going up to the terrace for a better internet signal. We managed perfectly well without a hire car, with a wonderful supermarket just a few minutes walk up a lane hedged with jasmine and bougainvillea. We were only staying for a few nights, looking for peace and tranquility, pasta, wine, the opportunity for a little snorkeling, sunshine. We found it all here.

Urlaub mit Privatstrand zum Erholen
Wir wurden von Francesca und ihrer Familie sehr herzlich willkommen geheißen und bedanken uns nochmals recht herzlich für die Gastfreundschaft. Die Infrastruktur bestehend aus dem Appartement, dem wunderschönen Garten, den Liege- und Sitzmöglichkeiten sowie der Dusche und den Toiletten im Gartenbereich haben wir sehr genossen.

Oase an der Ostküste
Die Villa Bella inmitten eines großen sehr gepflegten Parks ist ein wunderschönes Fleckchen Erde. Sie ist ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt, um die Insel zu erkunden. Am Nachmittag oder Abend freut man sich dorthin zurückzukehren und den Blick auf das Meer sowie die gemütliche Wohnung zu genießen. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich, der Külschrank gefüllt mit Dingen, die man fürs erste braucht. Die Kommunikation mit Francesca, z.T. auch über WhatsApp, war unkompliziert und funktionierte prima. Vielen Dank für eine wunderschöne Woche in der Villa Bella.

Hinter dem Tor beginnt das Paradies
Ein wunderschönes, ruhiges Anwesen mit vielen Plätzen zum Entspannen, immer mit direktem Blick aufs Meer. Wer früh aufsteht, kann den Sonnenaufgang von der Terrasse beobachten. Ein kleines Tor führt direkt zur felsigen Badestelle. Dort gibt es auch eine Außendusche und Toiletten. Für zwei Personen ist das Haus optimal. Das Schlafzimmer ist mit Klimaanlage ausgestattet, was im Sommer für erholsamen Schlaf sorgt. Francesca ist immer erreichbar, sie und ihre Familie sind perfekte Gastgeber.
