A lovely large villa that needs some TLC
The views are amazing! The fields and Etna in the distance are to die for. The villa is huge (and has a very rustic look) and can easily accommodate 4 families, I lost count of all the bedrooms and bathrooms at this place. The grounds are well kept and are also very spacious. All the things worked as expected, incl. dishwasher and washing machine. Plenty of clean towels and the beds have good firm mattresses which we preferred. Thanks for the shampoo and soaps. The location is central enough for all things Etna, shops and caffes are nearby and supermarkets and restaurants are not too far away. The owners are reachable but the response time can be better, which leads me to the not so good. We lost power in the villa and contacted the owners but didn't get a reply for a few hours which was not very reassuring. I did eventually sort it out by finding the right fuse box and restoring the power, but then it was going off every time we turned the dishwasher or fan or the lights. Good thing it happened on our last night there. What surprised me is the size of the kitchen, for the size of the villa the kitchen is too small. The path (road) to the villa from the main road in S. Leonardello is absolutely shocking, holes everywhere. I know its not the Villa owners fault but be prepared. The last thing is the location is not ideal for good or even average beaches, there are non in the area, the nearest decent beach is in Taormina.
