Testimonials

Villa Eden, Job van Heemskerck, Netherlands, October 2011
"Just returned from a lovely week. All went well. Great house."

 

Villa Serena, Kevin Dillon, Ireland, September 2011 (Wedding)
"We really have to say thank you for everything with Villa Serena. All of us that stayed there were enchanted by our stay. We really enjoyed being together - but it was the amazing location we had for spending the 6 days that allowed it to work out so well. We had our own private space, then great common areas to meet and gather and the pool was a great way to bring the two families together in the evenings and break the ice - We were all best friends by the end of the week (Despite some only spoke Polish). We just felt sorry for our Wedding day guests that they only got to experience the place on the day itself. It really is a beautiful place and it was a perfect location to have a Wedding. The materials, the facilities, the colours the plants, the isolation."

 

Villa Eden, Joanne Terino, United States, September 2011
"I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how wonderful Villa Eden was. We had the most special time. Morgana Maria Rita was incredible. She was so welcoming and made our introduction to the villa so easy. She helped us throughout our stay with arranging dinners at local restaurants and ensuring that we were treated well. The first night's dinner was perfect. All and all we were very pleased and would highly recommend the villa. I know that my brother is planning another trip to Sicily in the future based on the positive experience we had... Thank you for everything and I want to assure you that I will have nothing but positive feedback on our experience."

 

Villa Lipari & Villa Calaforno, Val Gibson, United Kingdom, July/August 2011
"We very much enjoyed our holiday in Sicily and hope to return one day. We will certainly recommend your company to our family and friends."

 

Sognia, Andre Moreau, France, July 2011
"We had really good days at Sicily. The property Sognia is really nice, clean and comfortable. The swimming pool area is very nice. The house is big, the living room and kitchen are comfortable, the owner were very friendly and helpful. The place is very quiet, reccomended for families. Thanks for nice holiday."

 

Noto Estate, Andrea Wolfe, United States, July 2011
"Thank you for your fabulous recommendations, especially for the market in Siracusa. We love the house, wish we could stay longer and have barely started to explore the things we'd like to see; next time! One week is definitely not long enough."

 

Camerina Terrace & Seashore, Miranda Kirwan,United Kingdom, July 2011
"Sadly we are now back from 2 wonderful weeks in Sicily staying in the villas we rented through you. I just wanted to let you know how delighted we were with the villas and how grateful I am to you for giving me so much guidance and help when I booked them. It really helped and I really appreciate your honesty and accuracy in the way you described them. They were exactly how we expected/hoped them to be, which often hasn't been the case when we've booked villas through other companies. Camerina was comfortable and modern and the swimming pools were beautiful, Seashore was (as you said) a little less well appointed but the spectacular sea view easily made up for it. Your suggestions for restaurants etc were extremely helpful and we used them a lot. Many thanks for everything."

 

Casa Marettimo, Helle Forum Petersen, Denmark, July 2011
"We are just back from 2 weeks at the Casa Marettimo. Huge success. Wonderful. We may well come back with a reservation for 2 weeks next summer."

 

Casa Giarratana, Heather Urban, United Kingdom, June 2011
"Just a short note to say a very big thank you for helping us have the most magical honeymoon. The villa was absolutely stunning and just far from what we could have hoped for. We knew of course that it would be super but not as super as it was. The pool, the villa, the gazebo and the gardens were just breath taking. Pippo was an extremely nice man and an excellent host! He had some super animals at the villa too! We will definately be using your company for our holiday next year and wouldn't be at all surprised if we rebook Casa Giarratana! Thanks so much again"

 

La Paolina, Naomi Ryan, United Kingdom, June 2011
"A quick email to say a huge thank you again. The Villa is beautiful, great layout and all the rooms were just perfect balance of clean, inviting and a real feel of a home from home. It has been a real pleasure being at La Paolina and from all that stayed there a big thank you! I loved the garden that had a silly amount of butterflies, a lively bird culture and perfect pool. The nights around the BBQ were what memories are made of... Thank you."

 

Villa Serena & La Paolina, Gloria & Jamie Wightman, United Kingdom, June 201 (Wedding)
"Thank you so much for all your help. We had an amazing day and the rest of the trip was lovely too. All our family and friends were really impressed and my friends all loved La Paolina too. Sicily now has a very special place in our hearts, so I'm sure we'll be back!"

 

La Paolina, James Willis, Australia, June 2011
" such a great time with fab hospitality and GREAT food and such a beautiful villa to have spent my birthday at!! Will always have VERY fond memories of turning 50 and that is with help from you! We all agreed that La Paolina was the perfect place for such a gathering and I am sure that if the rest were aware that I was writing to they would send their fondest!!"

 

Palmentino Rosso, Saira Gill, United Kingdom, May 2011
"We had the most fantastic holiday. Thank you for arranging the Etna tour, Gaetano was a great guide and the house couldn't have been more perfect with its quirky features and it was very cosy and ideal for the two of us. We very much appreciated the care that had gone into restoring the property, both being architects. Thank you so much."

 

Casa Modica, Mary Jane and Ian Ackland-Snow, United Kingdom, April 2011
"Just to say that we thought the apartment was extremely nice. It was well represented on line and did not disappoint at all. In fact it exceeded expectations. Beautifully decorated, a pleasure to be in. The standard of cleanliness was high, as I like it, and it was well equipped. Giorgio and Cesare left a bottle of wine and some delicious pastries - a nice touch and much appreciated. Loved the area. The not quite finished part of the apartment looked equally beautiful - I would hire them as designers/architects any day! We would be happy to use the company again - I would like next year to go to Sicily near the sea in June."

 

Villa Lipari, Natasha Young, Australia, October 2010
"Thank you so much for our stay at Villa Lipari. You were very helpful and the taxi you had booked us was ready and waiting to go to the airport. The villa was beautiful and we are very appreciative to the owner for allowing us to stay the additional day."

 

Villa Eden, michael siculiano, United States, September 2010
"the physical beauty of the villa was everything I expected it to be, and more. The interior is stunning with its marble staircase and crystal chandeliers'. The views from the balconies' were vistas seen only on postcards, you can see forever. The layout of the grounds is spectacular, the pool and the patio are well positioned to enjoy the views while you relaxed or dined outside."

 

Villa Aeolian, Christian Kaemmerling, Switzerland, July/August 2010
"Just want to let you know that we had 2 GREAT weeks in Mr. Vitale's house on Salina! We can absolutely recommend it."

 

Villa Calaforno, The Franks family, United Kingdom, August 2010
"It was a great holiday and Claudio was so helpful and accommodating. A huge thank you for everything. Already thinking about next year...!"

 

Casa San Francesco, Cathleen Hill, Ireland, June 2010
"We had a good time at Casa San Francesco. On the whole we can only give positive feedback about the place... the owner Francesco was very helpful and charming. The surroundings were idyllic, and the location of the property fantastic for visiting places. Thank you again for your support throughout this booking. We had a great break in Sicily."

 

Casa Giarratana, Naveen Jakkulla, United Kingdom, June 2010
"We had a brilliant time in Casa Giarratana... It is just what we wanted..."

 

La Paolina, Amanda Fisher, Australia, April 2010
"I wanted to thank you for our arranging our stay at Villa La Paolina. We really enjoyed our time there and came to feel quite at home. We really loved Ortygia, Modica, Scicli and Ragusa Ibla, but more than that we loved the dry stone walls, fields and wildflowers of the Donnafugata area. Chloe and I discovered the road from Donnafugata castle to Santa Croce and we always did those few extra kms, up and around, as we really felt we were in rural Sicily on that road. Thanks too for checking flights for Judi when the volcano ash problem had her stranded. Thanks once again for everything and we will certainly recommend (and I hope use once again) The Sicilian Villa Company."
