Fabulous location. The beach is stunning. Perfect for swimming. Shallow, calm water. Soft sandy beach 8 minutes walk down from the villa. Few people on the beach. There is a small nature reserve with lesser kestrels. Staff were very friendly and provided lots of useful information about the surrounding area. Well-equipped apartment with kitchen and two en suite bedrooms. Overall, the villa accommodates 15 people. Pool was clean with a fabulous view of the Manfria tower.

The suits are located in the really beautiful area. There is lovely clean sandy beach just only few minutes to walk away. We have seen few people only on the beach during 6 days that we stayed them. There is very calm, relaxing atmosphere. The staff and owner are very friendly. We had really large room equipped novel furniture which has been clean every day. The villa has green clean area. Everything was fine. Highly recommended

I wanted somewhere remote and peaceful. It certainly was. Superb views and pool area. Maria and her colleague did a fantastic job going above and beyond. Welcoming smiles from all Very secure parking. The villa dogs 🐕 Not a beach person, but very secluded private beach below the villa. Honesty fridge and freezer for cold drinks/ ice creams. A very rare 24 hrs pool.

Probably the best 10 days of holiday we have had! This hotel makes you feel as if you are welcome guests staying with close family . The host family are lovable, friendly, helpful and truly charismatic and their care and heart warming attention to detail permeates every aspect of this hotel. Our room was comfortable and cleaned perfectly everyday. The covered patio made the most perfect place for breakfast overlooking the Manfria Tower while the large, salt water pool was spotless and beautifully installed in a huge terrace area overlooking the see. The 10minute walk to the beach below was worth the effort since we were almost always alone on 530m of golden sand with warm water lapping in over shallow sands so even 50m out, the water was no more than chest high. The car park is secure with an automated gate and hotel is an easy 10 minute drive from Gela. When the opportunity arises, we will go back and I think that in future, we will compare all our hotel stays with this one as our benchmark for what a hotel should really be.

We had a wonderful stay!

The place is clean, quiet, and incredibly tranquil — perfect for a relaxing getaway. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The swimming pool is very nice and well maintained — a great spot to unwind. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, with tasty options every morning. One of the highlights is the nearby beach, just a few minutes’ walk away. It’s a true paradise with stunning views. Highly recommended!

It's a hidden gem for sure. The whereabouts of Villa are strange, really rural and there is nothing else in the village. The nearest towns are 30 min to east or west, so you need a car. But... the beach! The villa has access to 2 km of sandy beach which is just perfect. I mean - sand, no people (we didn't see anybody for 2 days), perfect water, surrounded by rocks, just beautiful! If you're looking for a solitary non-tourist beach, this is it. Also, the villa has their own 2 thousand years old Roman time watch tower. It's constantly visible from the villa, from the beach, you can walk to it - basically one of the kind experience.

Hidden gem in Sicily ❤️

Everything! The place is absolutely amazing, the beach is fantastic, super clean and private, after sunset you can see crabs climbing out of their holes. It’s surrounded by nature and truly idyllic. The pool is outstanding, the host cleans it couple times a day so you cannot see a single bug inside and the edges are bright white. The hosts are the nicest people we had a chance to meet during our 2 week stay in Sicily. We will be returning to this place because it’s one of a kind.
