We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Italy! The location was beautiful, the accommodation was comfortable, and everything was well organized. A truly memorable experience – we would happily return
My family and I had a wonderful stay at Alvise’s country cottage! He was incredibly friendly and helpful as a host. The location has a beautiful view and lots of privacy, which was more than worth the price. We were able to get some much needed rest and visit the surrounding sites, such as Cefalù, with ease. We would definitely return given the chance.
We had a great time at Campofelice di Roccella. The location was beautiful and secluded, which is just what we were looking for.
A magnificent view and a very pleasant jacuzzi (the jacuzzi is bigger than it looks in the photos!)
Our only regret… we would have liked to stay much longer in this cottage.
We recommend the address without hesitation.
And finally our host Alvis was very welcoming.
House a little secluded, but with a fantastic view of the sea. Authentic Sicilian house with pool. Simple equipment, but completely enough to linger and explore the surrounding area. Half an hour to Cefalù, one hour to Palermo, car required. Hosts very accommodating and friendly, even got fresh fruit in between.

Amazingly
We stayed in this property for 9 days in September 2015 for our wedding anniversary. We do travel a lot and this house was one of our favourite. So quite and piecefull and the privacy, just what we needed! Most of the evenings were spent outside with lovely views and a pool. Definitely recommended and great value for money. Easy to commute to the beach. Little mountain gem, def will be back

A wonderful little piece of Paradise
If you are looking for peace and quiet, great weather and privacy then look no further. Add in the incredible view of the mountains and coastline whilst sat on a hillside in a private and secure olive grove. Just perfect with fabulous sunsets.
The local shops and beautiful beach are both within a 5 - 10 drive (car essential) and larger towns are approximately 30 minutes away following the coastline in either direction.
The property has all the necessary essentials and the air conditioning is extremely efficient. It was very hot during our visit so it was much appreciated as was the large Jacuzzi.
Alvise is very helpful and met us in the local town at the end of our drive from the airport to take us to the cottage. He is available for any questions and extremely kind and respectful of privacy. The journey from the airport is almost one straight road all the way to the cottage and back and takes about 75 minutes.
The cottage provides a useful guidebook and maps and it seems Sicily offers plenty to see dependant on how adventurous the individual chooses to be. We chose to spend our time relaxing around the Jacuzzi, eating the wonderful fresh local produce, swimming in the warm sea and only venturing to two of the nearest larger towns for a wonder around. The trips to Mount Etna seem to run on Tuesdays so you would need to book if you don't want to make the drive.
Just a couple of things to remember - Sicily is a follower of the Mediterranean siesta culture, there is very little open or happening between 1.30 and 5pm locally so bear this in mind for restaurant bookings and shopping, although we believe the larger towns and supermarkets seem to remain open, and would also recommend bringing bottled water for your arrival especially during the hotter months.
We would thoroughly recommend Alvise's cottage to anyone and would very happily return if ever possible and would like to thank Alvise for his delightful and very thoughtful hospitality. Sicily is a truly beautiful place, so as a previous review mentioned - Don't hesitate - just book it!
Nous avons passé un séjour magnifique sur cette belle île de Sicile. Alvise le propriétaire est formidable et d une gentillesse. La vue de son acienda est a coupé le souffle. Je recommande a 3000%. Je compte revenir en 2026
Très agréable gîte au milieu d’une oliveraie. Le cadre, la vue sont magnifiques. Le jacuzzi/piscine est particulièrement agréable en cette saison. L’hôte est disponible et réactif quant au vieux chien de la propriété il est très attachant.
Wir verbrachten hier drei Tage nach unserer ersten Ankunft auf Sizilien (mit der Fähre und dem Auto). Die Unterkunft ist sehr ruhig, schön, abgelegen und bestens geeignet für auszuruhen, Spaziergänge in den Olivenhainen und Ausflüge an die Küste, z.B. nach Cefalu oder Palermo.
Der Vermieter ist der freundlich, zuverlässig und diskret.
Wir waren sehr zufrieden.
Het huis is echt geweldig! Helemaal alleen in de olijfgaard, met af en toe Alvise en/of zijn familie die langsrijdt of de oude hond die even komt buurten, verder zie je er niemand, precies zoals wij het willen.
Alvise is een geweldige gastheer, bescheiden en altijd bereid te helpen.
De jacuzzi is groter dan het lijkt op de foto’s en is een heerlijke afkoeling.
Zoals eerdere reviews al aangeven is een auto noodzakelijk, maar dan zit je ook zo in Campofelice of cefalu. Vergeet niet om een tripje door de Madonie te maken, fenomenaal!
Al met al een hele dikke aanrader!!
Wir haben einen traumhaften Pfingsturlaub verbracht! Der Vermieter war jederzeit erreichbar und hilfsbereit. Insbesondere die abgeschiedene Lage haben wir genossen und den Pool und Sonnenuntergang am Haus ausgekostet. Das Haus hatte alles was wir brauchten und auch der Schotterweg dahin war kein Problem. Vielen Dank für die wunderschönen 2 Wochen!

Tolle Unterkunft
Wir waren mit unseren drei Kindern da und haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
Wir wurden durch den Vermieter schon vor unserer Ankunft am Objekt abgeholt. Gemeinsam sind wir dann zum Haus gefahren. Dies hätten wir auch ohne seine Hilfe schwer gefunden. Das Haus liegt wie beschrieben allein inmitten eines Olivenhains. Der Ausblick und vor allem die Ruhe haben wir sehr genossen. Im Haus ist alles vorhanden was man braucht. Die Gegend bietet viele Möglichkeiten um Ausflüge unterschiedlichster Art zu unternehmen. Der Supermarkt und das Meer sind auch nur 5 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und kommen gern wieder.
Das Objekt ist an einer ruhigen, abgelegenen Lage mit schöner Aussicht auf den Olivenhain und im Hintergrund das Meer. Wir haben die Ruhe genossen, trotz dem etwas umständlichen Anfahrtsweg.
Die Zufahrt ist am Schluss etwas holprig.
Küche hat leider abgenutzte Pfannen, welche ersetzt werden müssten und gar keine Ausstattung zum kochen. Nur Geschirr ist vorhanden.
Das Haus steht direkt unter einer Hochspannungsleitung.
La tranquillité dans le vrai sens du mot !
Accueil chaleureux , raisin aubergines,poivrons, pêches fraîchement cueillis pour notre bienvenue 🙏.
Vue magnifique sur la mer qui est à quelques minutes en voiture.
Juste plus envie de repartir !
Grazie Mile Alviso 😊
Wat een fantastische plek om te verblijven. Weg van alle drukte, midden tussen de olijfbomen in een oase van rust.
Perfecte ondersteuning van de eigenaar mede door zijn lokale assistent Roberto.
We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad op de prachtige plek bij Alvise. Warm welkom geheten door Alvise met heerlijke olijfolie en onder de indruk van de prachtige natuur en het huisje. De jacuzzi was perfect voor de verkoeling en fijn ook dichtbij het huisje met de kinderen. Verder fijn airco voor de kinderen en de horren zorgden ervoor dat de muggen buiten de deur bleven. Ook een BBQ aanwezig voor het diner, kortom - absolute aanrader!
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cette maison où nous avons été très bien accueilli par Alvise qui a toujours été très disponible.Une vue magnifique au réveil et au coucher du soleil .L’emplacement est idéal pour visiter la région . Nous recommandons !
What a great week in Alvise house!
The house is beautiful, with the see view and the swimming pool!
he really is a beautiful person. he is attentive, advised us of beautiful things to visit. We had a car accident and he took care of us, offered us organic fruits and vegetables to sweeten the rest of our stay. We were very lucky to meet him and you can go there with your eyes closed, you will have an amazing holiday!
