Response from the owner Dear Adrian, thanks ! I am glad my guests appreciate the large swimming pool located near the living-room and the beautiful garden. Thanks, Adrian for appreciating my attitudes to my guests. I do think a host must always be attentive, friendly, helpful and make his/her guests feel at home !! As you know, the toilet was a bit smelly because of a sudden, unexpected leakage. Such iussues can happen in the homes of the best families. Though, I called the plumber as soon as you let me know about that. Once again sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for letting me know, Adrian ! Actually we are very attentive to the comfort of the beds and also the standards of cleaning. That’s the very first time I hear that ! Dear Adrian, just let me remind you that you came at the end of September, in Autumn ! You should have come in the summer months if you wanted Cassibile (a village by the sea) to be less “quiet” I am sorry to hear that but how many restaurants within walking distance did you expect? The village of Cassibile is full of restaurants; of course not all of them can be located next door ! Though all you were supposed to do was read the characteristics of my property on the Tripadvisor website. All my previuos 5-star reviews rating my property are proof of how much my guests appreciate my place. I will continue to do my best to ensure a wonderful experience for my guests. Once again thanks for staying at my place, Adrian.

“Definitely recommend to anyone staying in the area”

Reviewed 16 Aug 2015

We were 2 adults and 3 older teenagers. The villa was brilliant, the air-con especially welcome. Pool fantastic and large enough to take us all at once. Marcello was the perfect host, nothing was too much trouble for him although we didn't have any real issues anyway. The views from the balcony and roof are stunning and the villa itself was very well equiped. All in all a very big YES from our party.

Response from the owner When I decided to start my new venture on lettings, I promised myself I would do my best to be the kind of host that travellers are supposed to meet during their holidays abroad. I know how you feel when you are abroad and get no support, kindness around you. Well ... this will never happen to my guests :-) Thanks indeed for your lovely, detailed review; that makes me understand I must be doing pretty well. Next year my guests will also be provided with bikes (free additional service). It was nice having you at "HAPPY HOLIDAY" VILLA and I do hope to see you again soon !
