Traumurlaub!

Das Anwesen ist wunderschön gelegen am Rande eines Naturschutzgebiets, bestens ausgestattet, sehr gepflegt und absolut sauber. Die Aussicht ist spektakulär. Die Übergabe war völlig unkompliziert, Gaetano hat uns alles bestens erklärt und einige wertvolle Tips gegeben. Die Zufahrt ist etwas schwierig, aber man gewöhnt sich schnell daran. Wir haben hier eine wunderbare Zeit verbracht und planen einen weiteren Aufenthalt.

Villa aan de rand van een natuurgebied

Zeer proper en goed uitgerust huis. Geweldig zicht, zeer rustig gelegen, laatste villa. Zeer vriendelijke behulpzame eigenaar. Zorg wel voor een krachtige auto want het laatste stuk van de rit is pittig, onverhard omhoog. Aanrader.

Wunderschönes Haus mit Traumblick

Super liebe Gastgeber, alles da was man zum schönen Leben braucht. Mitten in der Natur aber nah dran an vielen Ausflugszielen. Die Anfahrt ist teilweise steil, der Mietwagen sollte also ein paar PS haben.

Amazing!!

The pictures don't show how wonderful it is! We were 6 adults and enjoy our all 2 weeks. The view is amazing and to enjoy it from the pool is soo great. Outdoor kitchen is bigger then it´s looks and we used that every day/evening. We recommend this house for every one at all time! A recommendation is to have a small or big SUV, the road is not the best (but this is Italy..)

Hier kann man herrlich Entspannen

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit! Gaetano hat uns super instruiert und sogar noch Obst, Wasser und Kaffee spendiert. Für die angenehm abgeschiedene Lage in wilder Natur nahmen wir den "Aufstieg" und drei sehr anhängliche, aber friedliche Straßenhunde vor dem Tor gerne in Kauf (Gelände ist umzäunt). Die Aussicht ist jedenfalls phänomenal! Ansonsten noch besonders positiv hervorzuheben: Babybett, Mückengitter, Pool-Terrasse Herzliche Grüße!

Super Aussicht!

Fantastische Lage mit wunderbarer Aussicht, ob Tag oder Nacht. Die Villa bietet alles was man so braucht. Grosse schöne Zimmer und Bäder. Speziell zu erwähnen ist die Aussenküche mit Abwaschgelegenheit, 4 Kochfelder, Backofen, ein Grill und super Pizzaofen. Alles unter gedeckter Terrasse und viel Platz (wir habe nur 3 Mal auswärts gegessen, sonst immer die Aussenküche benutzt, fantastisch!). Es gibt auch ein Trinkwasseranschluss, somit entfällt die Wasserschlepperei vom Supermarkt. Ein Geschoss tiefer befindet sich der Pool mit Dusche und Sitzgelegenheit. Alles ist so wie auf den Bildern oder vor Ort noch imposanter. Gaetano hat uns herzlich begrüsst und alles erklärt. Auch hat er einmal pro Woche den Pool gereinigt und den Abfall (getrennt: Papier-Karton, Glas, Plastic, Organisch und Allg.) entsorgt, wobei immer im Voraus eine WhatsApp-Anmeldung zugestellt. Wir fühlten uns in der Villa sehr wohl und haben unsere vier Wochen sehr genossen. Wir können diese Villa ohne Vorbehalt sehr empfehlen. Lieber Gaetano nochmals herzlichen Dank für Alles! Beste Grüsse Urs und Bruno

Perfektes Anwesen in beeindruckender Lage

Wir waren im Juni bei anhaltend schönem Wetter mit fünf Personen in der Villa Ibiscus. Bei Ankunft erwartete uns die Besitzerfamilie mit einem herzlichen Willkommensgruß. Die Einweisung ins Haus war detailliert und alles in bester Ordnung. Das Haus selbst verfügt über alles Nötige und entsprach exakt der Objektbeschreibung. Insbesondere die Außenbereiche mit Küche, Grill, Sitzgelegenheiten usw. sind einladend und gut gepflegt. Der Poolbereich ist wunderbar angelegt und sehr sauber. Das Haus hat eine außergewöhnliche Lage mit einem unfassbar schönen Ausblich auf Meer und Bucht. Insgesamt verbrachten wir eine tolle Woche mit vielen entspannten Stunden. Vielen Dank an Gaetano für den tollen Empfang und die Gastfreundschaft.

Beautiful & homely villa with amazing views

I booked this for 1 week with my husband , in-laws and 20 month daughter. Lovely villa , fully equipped (especially with fantastic toys that my daughter loved) Very child friendly on both the villa& courtyard and pool and sun deck area. Definitely big enough for a family to cook, eat and relax. The outside kitchen and shaded eating area are also ideal. Gaetano was always contactable for even the smallest things (even offered to help when we got a puncture) There are local supermarkets/ amenities pretty close and we enjoyed quite a few evening meals at the taking in the view and beautiful sunsets ! And enjoying drinks on the Sun deck . Just as advice for people booking, the road up to the villa ( like most of the hill roads ) is a bit steep/ dirt track so consider a hire car with a bit a clearance and power might be advisable if you’re going to be fully loaded. We’d definitely go back and recommend for friends . Thank you Gaetano !!

A beautiful villa with breathtaking views -

Villa Ibiscus is a large, spotlessly clean villa with absolutely breathtaking views. We sat for hours on the terrace both during the day and in the evening just gazing out on the ever-changing colours of the sea and mountains. As others have said, the photos here really don't do it justice. We do, however, have a couple of reasons for not giving this property the full five stars - 1) The track up to it can certainly be problematic, particularly in the dark or in bad weather, it's steep and rocky and our small car struggled in places, especially if we had to stop half way up to let another vehicle pass. If you're not used to this kind of driving then we would strongly recommend making sure you have a powerful car with a high wheel-base, and if possible a 4x4. 2) There was no real internet. The owner provided a plug-in 'web cube' and asked for 20 Euros in cash for it when we arrived, it didn't really work very well and only lasted a few days. 3) The property is quite a long way from any shops and quite a long drive away from any supermarkets. It would be good to have some supplies provided for when you arrive. The owner did sell his wine in the property for 20 Euros but no other supplies were provided. 4) We were told not to use the pizza oven. 5) Although the check-out time is stated as 11am, we were asked to leave at 9.30am as the owner had to clean the property for the next guests, although he did concede that we could stay until 10am after we pointed this out. These are all minor quibbles however, and not intended as a criticism, more as tips for how the property could be even better. Ultimately it is a clean modern villa with the most beautiful views, and a wonderful place to spend a holiday in Sicily.

Ferienhaus mit traumhafter Aussicht in einzigartiger Lage

Vorweg: Der Außenbereich des Hauses ist unglaublich, und die die Aussicht ist atemberaubend. Die Lage direkt an einem Naturschtzgebiet beschert die Nachbarschaft eines Steinadlers, das ist schon mehr als außergewöhnlich. Die exponierte Lage verlangt allerdings einiges vom Besucher/Auto ab, denn der Weg ist für den normalen Kraftfahrer zumindest eine Herausforderung. Zum Teil unbefestigt und sehr schmal, ist ein geländegängiges Fahrzeug vorteilhaft. Ein kurzes "Brötchenholen" zu Fuß ist eher ausgeschlossen. Der Pool ist so, wie er dargestellt ist, und ausreichend Sitzgelegenheiten sind auch vorhanden, ebenso wie die Außenküche. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit, auch über das normale Maß hinweg. Nochmals ein Dankeschön an Gaetano, als er uns direkt am ersten Tag einsammeln ließ, nachdem wir uns verlaufen hatten... Das Haus selbst ist sauber und gut aufgeteilt, zwei Schlafzimmer sind ebenso vorhanden wie zwei Bäder, die Küche ist funktionell und gut ausgestattet.

Amazing holiday spot!

Dear Gaetano, thanks so much for everything! Your house, the patios and the pool are great and everything was well-equipped and super clean. We really enjoyed the breathtaking views while sitting outside and the kids absolutely loved the little play house and the box of toys. If Sicily were closer, we‘d come again and again!

Tres bon séjour. Hôte très sympathique et disponible.

Maison propre et bien équipée (intérieur et extérieur)piscine impeccable. Superbe vue sur la mer. Nous y étions en couple avec 2 enfants en bas âge et ca a été vraiment parfait. L'arrivée peut être surprenante (chemin) mais de fait vite oubliée par l'accueil et la qualité de la location. Altavilla n'est pas touristique ce qui est top car en immersion avec les locaux (courses de proximité, bars...). On peut aller facilement à Cefalu, Palerme... autoroute accessible facilement.

Cher Gaetano! Je tiens à exprimer ma gratitude pour le merveilleux séjour. Vie privée exceptionnelle, des vues spectaculaires, jardin paysager, maison entièrement équipée, l'emplacement stratégique. Nous nous sommes reposés à 100%) Vous êtes très serviable et attentionné. Je recommande votre villa pour les vacances. И так, как я из России, то напишу несколько слов для моих соотечественников. Я рекомендую виллу Ибискус и ее хозяина Гаетано для очень комфортного и изысканного отдыха. В жизни вилла оказалась красивее, чем на фото. Хозяин встретил нас, все рассказал и показал в течение 30 минут, после этого не беспокоил. Расположение виллы просто бесподобно, Вы над всеми.

Villa con vistas espectaculares, muy bien acondicionada, con una zona de piscina muy agradable y otra zona exterior con horno para pizzas, barbacoa, cocina y un amplio velador que permite una estancia muy agradable. Única pega, últimos 800 m. de acceso, muy dificultosos.

Why they chose this property

Villa Ibiscus is the family vacation house with wonderful views to the sea at the foot of the natural reserve called "Pizzo Cane, Pizzo Trigna, Grotta Mazzamuto". It's livable all year because with autonomous heating and wood-burning fireplace. The private swimming pool of 32 square meters deep m. 1,50 is running from May to September. The villa is located about 2 km. from the main highway that will allow you to take a tour of tha magnificient Sicily, land of millennial history, rich in monuments, sun and sea, inhabited by hospitable people. I rent the house for a few years already and I'have had a lot of positive feedback as evidenced by major industry sites (ex. Casamundo website).
