Fabulous property

The house is exceptionally well equipped. The situation is fabulous with stunning views over the bay and easy access to Bruccoli for shopping and restaurants. Everyone we dealt with for the property was very friendly and helpful.

Stunning location - with your own "private" beach and the best view of Mount Etna

The house is wonderful, keeps cool even on the warmest days, excellent equiped, clean, aircontiditoned - and the location ... stunning. Absolutely stunning. The feeling of having your own private beach only a few steps from your house makes you not want to leave this place. A big garden surrounds the house and makes you get the feeling of your own private area. The always helpful Carlos met us at the gate when we arrived, showed us the house and told us about the area. The charming town Brucoli looks during daytime as a sleepy place, but when the sun goes down people arrive from long distances and turns it to a lively cool place. With a rented car you can easily reach the best cultural sites as i.e Siracusa, Noto, Mt Etna, Villa Romana.

A lovely villa

We had a lovely stay at Villa Civello. From making the booking to the return of the deposit everything was extremely well organised. The villa is well appointed and clean and the location truly spectacular. The villa is also well placed for trips around the Eastern side of Sicily, including Etna, Siracusa, Noto, Cava Grande and more. Would recommend highly.

Fantastic villa in Brucoli

We arrived quite late and so didn't get the full impression of the villa or the view until the morning, and what a sight, it was such a beautiful view across the bay, and the sunsets were marvellous. Etna was often hidden from view because of the heat mist but it was a lovely sight when it came into view and we had a good trip around the whole of Etna one day. The villa is perfection, we had a fantastic time here, all the facilities were as mentioned in the description and we wanted for nothing. This was one of the only villas we have stayed at with full mosquito nets at every window, and the first time we have never got bitten during our many trips to Italy, as we took the advice of Franco and closed the doors to the bedroom corridor. We used the outside shower everyday and it was lovely in the July heat. We bought a cheap snorkel set from the local supermarket, and it was lovely to see the fish in the bay just below our balcony. The owner Franco was always quick to reply to my questions and to give advice, and the caretaker lived just behind the villa in case of any problems (which we didn't have). I would definitely recommend the villa to friends and relations, we were sad to leave. We visited all the major historical sites, if you have children/student age I would recommend taking your passport/ID so that you can get cheap rates for entry. thanks again Franco for the use of your lovely villa, we hope to return very soon.

About the host

Hosted by Franco

I used to spend my summer holidays in this house. Now my family and I can only stay here a few weeks each year. The house is available otherwise.

Why they chose this property

It's easier to manage a house that is open and used rather than closed for most of the year.

What makes this property unique

The special feature of the house is its close proximity to a very calm sea, in a sheltered bay, and therefore ideal for swimming. It also boasts a large patio and a large garden with olive and pine trees. The view from the house is spectacular and the house is part of a private compound , full of trees and vegetation, next to a nature reserve,
