Our stay was so far beyond our expectations. Everything about our accommodations were spectacular. We spent a considerable time out doors where the view was gorgeous. The deck overlooks the sea with a full view of Mt. Etna. We didn’t use the pool but it is surrounded by lounge chairs and comfortable seats to relax in. There is an outdoor kitchen and two tables for outdoor eating. The kitchen was fully stocked. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. Each afternoon we swam in the ocean as it was a quick walk away. The villa was exactly as described but what was missing is how accommodating and attentive our host is. Francesco went above and beyond to be sure we were taken care of from our early and late arrivals to our extremely early departure. He stopped by a few times bringing us local delights to taste. I highly recommend Villa Marissa for your stay in Sicily. Our host deserves 10 stars.

We really enjoyed our vacation. The host was extremely helpful. For example, on the first day, he went grocery shopping for us, and on the last day, he even helped us when our car got a flat tire.The house is beautiful and clean. The terrace offers a fantastic view of Mount Etna. The property itself is lovely. Three bedrooms and the bathroom have been newly renovated. The other two bedrooms still need renovation, but overall, the house is very tastefully and lovingly furnished.It is located in an area that is also very clean and well maintained. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place.

Optimal Villa at a reasonable price for 2-3 families. Perfect location to visit numerous attractions or just rest. Great pool, fantastic view and wonderful decoration. The rooms are vast and confortable. The private sea access is great. Furthermore, Francesco and his staff are very kind and helpful. We can’t wait to go back!

Fantastic stay in Sicily

My family of six and I had an incredible stay here in Sicily, with many thanks to our very friendly and communicative host, Francesco. The property is beautiful and well-cared for and its location is very convenient if your goal is to see a lot of the eastern coast of the island. You have a beautiful view of Etna, a short walk to the sea, and lots of good times in store if you book here. Grazie Francesco!!

Perfect stay

Large, airy, very clean property with a lovely pool. Stunning views and a perfect place to chill. The development also has a little sea wall from which the residents can swim. The owner was very helpful and kind, and made our stay very relaxed. The road to the development is tricky to find, which is why I deducted one star for check-in, nothing to do with the owner, just tricky geography!

Gorgeous seaside home!

This is a beautiful home just steps from the sea. The pool was so refreshing and the kitchen is fully stocked. The wonderful host provided a lot of food and drinks when we arrived, which we appreciated after a long day of travel. The home was conveniently located between Siracuse and Catania. It is clean, spacious, nicely decorated and comfortable. We highly recommend it!

Villa Marisa

We were 3 couples, one of which was in a wheelchair. The Villa is super with an excellent view of the sea and at a distance there is mount Etna. It is equipped with all the facilities you need. Francesco helped us with all our requirements. It is a pleasant and quite place to stay.

Lovely Private Seaside Home!

The photos of the villa are pretty accurate. My husband and I stayed here at the end of our Sicily adventure. It is a lovely property just steps from the sea! The villa is big and can fit many couples or a large family. The host, Francesco was very welcoming and respsonsive, he greeted us at the gate, gave us a tour and helped us book an amazing Sicilian private chef. We enjoyed the views of the sea and Mt Etna!

Welcome to Paradise

The villa was everything we could hope for and more. The view of Etna and the sea are breathtaking. The accomodations are so comfortable and spacious. Both indoor and outdoor kitchens are well-equipped. The location is ideal for visiting Siracusa and Catania quite easily, as well as the Etna wine country. Our host was so pleasant, helpful and attentive to all our needs. We highly recommend the traditional Sicilian supper prepared by a chef who will come to the villa.

Beautiful Villa

Francesco was a great host. If you needed anything Francesco was available immediately. The view was spectacular. Plenty of space for our group of 9. Good location as well because we used it as our home base for visiting Taromina, Catania and Siracusa and little towns in between. Grazie Mille Francesco per tutto!

Wonderful stay from beginning to end. Francesco met us so we would not get lost as we have a tendency to do. Very well stocked kitchen. Outside area with plenty of seating to enjoy the view of Mt Etna and the sea. Enjoyed the pool to cool off in. Francesco arranged for a chef to come and prepare a delicious dinner for my sister’s birthday. Want to return in the future with my children. Loved our stay!

Francesco is kind, patient and helpful. He personally ensured we had a fabulous stay by helping us obtain groceries and made recommendations for the area. We enjoyed the views and relaxed and cooked and dined outside. He also connected us to arrange for a personal chef to celebrate a birthday. We loved the access to the sea for a swim. Thank you!

Great hosts, property and location!

Our large group stayed in Sicily at this property for five nights. Francesco was such a responsive and helpful host, including communication about getting to the property, and even providing some groceries ready for us when we arrived. The property itself is amazing, lots of space for people to sleep, cook, relax or enjoy the views of Mount Etna and the sea inside or outside. I don’t think the pictures show all this place has to offer! I would definitely recommend it! The location also provides easy access to a nice area to swim or to other places given it’s close to the highway.

Coastal bliss!

The property was perfect for our group of 10 adults. 5 full bedrooms each with their own bath. The deck and pool areas have a stunning view, as shown in the listing. The kitchen appliances and washing machine are new. We were able to hire a private chef and seat our whole group for a celebratory dinner. As mentioned in other reviews, the property is remote to shopping and restaurants, but we did find it convenient to day trip destinations including Siracusa, Noto, and Catania. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

What a spectacular accomodation!! Perfect location, you are an hour from everything on the east coast of Sicily. Francesco is the ultimate host, everything was beyond perfect, beautiful, breathtaking. Anything you think you need he has. The pictures do not do this place justice. If you are going to eastern Sicily, stay no where but here, you will not regret it . I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Thank you Francesco, till we see each other again, the Termini family

Fabulous property and owner

Me and my family, adult children and their wives and girlfriends stayed. 8 of us in total. Property is clean and located close to Catania airport and close to so many other wonderful locations in Sicily. I would recommend this property and we will stay here again. Francesco was so easy to work with and helped us reserve an on site chef for dinner one night(who was also fabulous), drove us to get pizza one evening and also helped with food delivery one evening. A stunning. Via of the sea and Mt Etna from the back and access to the sea with a short walk. Thank you Francesco for a wonderful stay!

Amazing

The villa, recently renovated, is very comfortable and spacious, with a bay window overlooking the Etna gulf. A wonderful view. There is a small swimming pool which is very comfortable and can be used with counter-current swimming. We could not use the private beach because during the time we went there, it was a little cool. The owner is really kind and hospitable and has met all our needs promptly. A car is needed to get around. The thing we liked is that it is located in a really peaceful and not very chaotic village. We will certainly come back.

Beautiful view

The owner met us at the community gate after providing us with detailed directions the day of arrival. Once at the VRBO we were given a tour and shown how to use some of the amenities provided in the home. The home and property were absolutely gorgeous and met all the needs of our mixed group, which included two families with adults, young adults and an 8 year old. All the bedrooms were comfortable and had a full ensuite. The owner was very generous in providing us with some wonderful grocery items to get started. We did cook in the home each night of our 5 night stay and had a quick breakfast each morning. With such a wonderful view we spent each evening enjoying the pool and lounge area. A short walk led us down to a rock beach where we swam and visited with locals while enjoying the view of Mt. Etna. The property was easily our favorite during our 11 day vacation and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for accommodations in this area.
