STRONG POINTS: QUIET, SERENITY AND EXTRAORDINARY VIEW !!!

MOREOVER, THE PEOPLE WHO RENT THIS HOUSE WILL BE ONLY THE ONES TO LIVE IN THE AGREED PERIOD; NO COLOCATAIRES, NOR OWNERS ON PLACE !!!

Rent 15 minutes from Agrigento, the particularly charming villa, is surrounded by nature in a quiet and relaxing, in the valley connecting Raffadali to Cattolica Eraclea, with a magnificent 360 ° view over olive groves, hills and mountains.

It can accommodate from 2 to 6 people comfortably. Shops are located 5 minutes drive (Raffadali).

The house is built 200 meters from the road, on a plot of 45 ares, with 2 large covered terraces, Mediterranean trees (olive, citrus, fig ...) and a private pool of 10MX5M.

Located ¼ of an hour's drive, Agrigento is one of the most important tourist destinations in Sicily. The Valley of the Temples is the largest archaeological site of ancient Greece, while being a UNESCO World Heritage Site; inside, an ancient garden Kolymbetra, recently restored by the FAI, and the archaeological museum.

Among the places to visit in the city, there is in particular the College of the Philippines (which includes an art gallery and the collection of the great Sicilian 800), the Lucchesiana Library, the Church of Santa Maria dei Greci, the Monastery from the Holy Spirit, the Arab district of Rabato and via Atenea, the main street of the city, with shops for shopping and the local nightlife.

At 8 km, in Realmonte, you will admire the Scala dei Turchi, a fantastic chalk cliff between two beaches of pure white sand.

The villa is a 20-minute drive from the beautiful Siculiana Marina Beach.

About 20 km near Siculiana lies the beautiful nature reserve Torre Salsa, managed by WWF, which also includes a section of beach frequented by nudists. The reserve is sometimes frequented by the sea turtle Caretta caretta.

The villa camped in the middle of the olive trees is a haven of peace and rest. Located in a valley, a small flow of air vents even at the hottest times of the year. And then, the private pool is at a stairway from the terrace that overlooks the property.
The house is extremely practical and comfortable, in a rational spirit and a contemporary decor of good taste.

You will be able to taste typical Sicilian dishes (see photos) concocted by Giovanni, your host and your occasional chef.

IMPORTANT!!!
In case you want to accommodate more than 6 people, another villa is located 300 / 400m, which can accommodate up to 5 additional people; it has a private pool also.

Probably the nicest villa we have rented in Europe. We especially like the use of reclaimed wood. The villa is well equiped and the pool is large. It is very rural and a car is esential

Schönes Ferienhaus in der Siz. Provinz mit top Ausblick & Pool der groß genug ist um Bahnen zu schwimmen. Das Grundstück ist schön angelegt mit Palmen, Blumen und Olivenbäumen. Was gut zu wissen ist: Die SP (Strada Provinciale) sind generell schlecht in Schuss daher ist die Anfahrt für deutsche Verhältnisse etwas abenteuerlich und ohne Auto würde ich das Objekt nicht mieten, da der nächste Supermarkt ein Stück weg ist. Man kann sich auch von Francesco mit herrlichem Obst, Gemüse aus Eigenanbau, sowie Wein versorgen lassen, sehr zu empfehlen, Preise i.O.. Francesco ist auch jeden Tag am Haus zum Gießen und nach dem Rechten sehen, nur den Pool muss man täglich selber reinigen. Würde ich auch jedem empfehlen es zu machen. Ich weiß nicht ob die Vormieter es gemacht haben, jedenfalls waren als wir ankamen, an den Rändern Algen und Würmer, haben das aber schnell in den Griff bekommen. Am Haus ist eine Videokamera angebracht die die Ostseite Pool/Eingangsbereich überwacht. Hunde gibt es in der Umgebung, welche jedoch so weit weg sind, dass ich persönlich sie nicht als störend empfunden habe. Generell schlafe ich aber mit Ohrstöpseln was von Vorteil war, Spatzen und Echsen haben sich auf Dach/&Rinne ihr Zuhause gesucht und das getrippel ist recht laut. Da hilft leider der Kaktus am Dach auch nicht. Dafür kann aber keiner was das ist eben Natur. Wir konnten uns damit gut arrangieren, für Menschen mit leichten Schlaf vielleicht nicht das Richtige. Zudem sollte man generell kein Problem mit Tierchen haben wenn man in einem südlichen Land ist. Die Vermieter hatten im Vorbau die Fenster zum Lüften aufgemacht ehe wir gegen 8pm eingetroffen sind, entsprechend viele Moskitos waren in der Wohnung zu finden, über dem Bett hängt hierfür bereits ein Moskitonetz. Echsen suchen sich ihren Weg in die kühlen Wohnungen auch durch Insektengitter und direkt in der ersten Nacht haben wir Bekanntschaft mit einer Kakerlake im Bad gemacht, aber nur mit der einen. Klimaanlagen sind in allen Räumlichkeiten und funktionieren gut. Wasser sollte man nicht aus der Leitung trinken, und kein Toilettenpapier in die Toilette werfen (ist generell in Sizilien so) Es ist im Haus alles vorhanden was man braucht, es gibt einen großen Kühlschrank mit Gefrierfach, gekocht wird mir Gas, bekocht wurden wir leider nicht, es wurde uns nicht angeboten und gefragt haben wir nicht, lag vllt. an der Verständigung. Italienisch Kentnisse vorteilhaft. Alles in allem zu empfehlen, würden wieder kommen.

La casa da vicino è ancora più bella di come viene vista sull’annuncio. Tutto perfetto, a massimo 5 km si trovano supermercati, forni, macellerie, bar e distributori… l’unica pecca non molto vicina al mare.

The pool is excellent, even though you need to clean it yourself regularly, but this is easily done using a cleaning robot.The kitchen is very well equipped with almost anything you might need when cooking. On the subject of cooking, we really enjoyed the tomatoes and basil found in the garden. The garden is taken care of by a neighbor that comes around every second day or so. Dont be surprised if he invites you over to his place and offers you some of his vegetables. He only speaks Italian, but even though we dont speak that we managed to communicate quite well using Google translate. Google translate also helped us a lot when communicating with Carmelina and Salavtore that is the people that made us feel very welcome to the house and also helped out with the trash and other practical things. The only negative thing we can think of is that the supplied internet connection isnt great. Its solved using a mobile router and it wasnt very fast, but usually worked. The house is out in the country side, so its no surprise that the mobile network isnt working perfectly.
