“A beautiful property with a large pool, stunning garden and 3 large bedrooms. All amenities provided, property is lovely and clean and there’s a fantastic warm welcome from Antonella and Salvino who are wonderful hosts. Property is 2 mins walk from beach and 5 mins walk into town along the waterfront - couldn’t ask for better. Would highly recommend - we’ll be returning!”

“Such a great experience at this lovely villa in Donnalucata. Clean, comfortable and with added benefit of the private swimming pool and gardens. Difficult to ask for more. Immaculate linens and towels including beach ones. Owners are so nice and welcoming, we were greeted on arrival with bottle of wine, fresh fruit and more whilst our daughters had Easter chocolate bunnies waiting for them! Any issue gets promptly addressed (wi-fi password playing tricks). Great location just a short walk away from Sandy beach and the town centre. Last but not least, don't miss the opportunity of having your own local chef cook your al fresco supper (the cook is friend of the owners, who are happy to arrange) Truly recommended, we'll surely be back!”

“We had a lovely stay here at the start of the season. Owners are very helpful and informative. We regretted nothing in our choice of property. A few minutes walk and you are on the beach, a few more minutes walk along the beach and you are at the start of the town's promenade, leading to the restaurants and shops.”

Recommend to everyone who likes calm and private rest. Very good !! Thank you so much for your warm hospitality and great attitude! We really liked everything a lot and enjoyed the stay!”
