Villa Orizzonte, Noto

We had the most amazing two week stay on the East coast. The Villa exceeded expectations and communication and organisation was excellent from booking with Lavinia, through to being extremely well looked after by Ketty and team during our stay. Would recommend beautiful Sicily to everyone, and wouldn’t hesitate to book via Select Sicily again

A beautiful house

A beautiful house well equipped in a nice area.
Everything was close : beach, restaurants, supermarket but the area was very calm.
Aldo was very responsive to all our questions. Nice to have a cleaning in the middle of our stay and a garderner to take care of trash cans and to bring you every morning figs.

Wonderful stay, but a coast very dirty

Excellent stay in Sicilia.
The home was perfect, very clean and near the sea. The view was wonderful.
Select Sicily is very professional.
However, I don’t understand why Sicilian people doesn’t collect the dishes and put them in the street.
We are not in the middle age !

Villa Essence

Our one week at Villa Essence was fantastic. The villa looked great in pictures on the Select Sicily site but was even better in person. I think I actually said "wow" when we walked in and saw the view over vineyards down to the ocean, and then "wow" again every night as we ate dinner outside watching the sunset. The villa inside and out was very comfortable and well equipped: kitchen and outdoor bbq area were great, wifi was strong and consistent, beds were very comfortable, a/c was good and the pool was the nicest and largest we've ever seen in a villa rental. There is a neighbouring house but it's far enough away that the villa and the pool area is very private and not overlooked. Aldo and the Select Sicily team were a pleasure to deal with. They replied quickly to any questions we had pre-arrival and while at the villa and were very helpful with tips and information on this beautiful part of Sicily. I would definititely use them again when we, hopefully, return to Sicily.

Everything was perfect

Everything was perfect. The villa it’s amaizing, with all you need. The pool was the first atraction for us, clean and big. And all the other places (spa, cinema, library, barbeque, garden) was perfect.
Thank you for a happy holliday

Select Sicily and Villa Gattopardo - Excellent!

We had a wonderful stay in Sicily. Select Sicily were excellent, professional, helpful and friendly agents and we would highly recommend them. The owner of Villa Gattopardo was also very welcoming, professional and helpful and we had a really lovely, memorable stay at his property. This is all very much appreciated. Thank you, all!

Wonderful stay in Sicily villa I Cipressi

We had a wonderful stay in Sicily in the beautiful villa I Cipressi (shame it will no longer be available next year). All the liaison (with Lavinia) and arrangements in advance were both professional and helpful, as was the local agent Aldo. The villa was well equipped and well maintained (a few very minor issues with fittings/taps etc but nothing causing more than a momentary annoyance) and very beautiful inside and out. We will definitely be looking to book with Select Sicily again next time we stay in Sicily.

We had a lovely stay at Cala dell'Ovo

We had a lovely stay at Cala dell'Ovo, which is a pretty Villa in a great location. Only 200m or so from the sea, it is very well equiped and tastefully decorated and furnished. We walked to the lovely Scopello most evenings to eat and drink, which is about 1.5km away. For food shopping there are two good places about 5 mins in the car away. We visisted ancient sites Segesta & Selinunte which are about an hour away, and the stunning Erice hilltop town. Ninni, the owner, is very helpful and charming and was very helpful with any questions.

Gorgeous villa in beautiful part of Sicily

We have just returned from Italy where we spent the last week at Cala Del Ovo. It is a beautiful house, a few minutes walk from a gorgeous private (for the houses down the driveway) beach and a short drive from Scopello village and also a little area with a lovely food store.
The house was perfect for our family and very well equipped and Marco and Ninni were great to deal with.
Definitely recommend!

La Cicale: a villa with a view

We spent a wonderful 12 days holiday in La Cicale villa offered by SelectSicily. The online pictures did not do justice to the space and beautiful views offered from the villa’s enormous terrace. All the bedrooms were of a similar size and had en-suite facilities. The pool was cleaned regularly and provided the perfect place to cool down and relax. The villa provided a very comfortable and spacious inside area. The agent Aldo was so helpful and responded straightaway if we had any questions. Beautiful safe, sandy beaches are within a 10 minute drive and there are so many options for a morning, evening or whole day out. We would definitely book La Cicale again.

We stayed in a lovely one bedroomed apartment right in the centre of Palermo for three nights - it was wonderful.
The owner, Paola, was lovely and very helpful indeed and Lavinia at Select Sicily was also very organised and helpful and ensured our stay in Sicily was a success. I would have no hesitation in recommending Select Sicily.

Cala del'Ovo, Scopello

We had had a wonderful week in this beautiful and nice house. Very clean, comfortable beds, wonderful view from the terrace. Several areas for relax. Only 200 m to the lovley beach. The host was very helpful and welcoming. It was 5 min by car to a great food market. We were six persons and we all want to come back again. Scopello is so beautiful.

Villa Orrizonte

Villa Orrizonte
We spended 2 weeks in this beautiful modern house surrounded by almondtrees and olivetrees. The caroubtree gave us shade to have lunch even with hot weather. the pool is magnificent and you swim and see the Mediteranean sea at the same time. This is great. Select sicily was helpful and very reactive each time we needed something. Great stay in Sicily and we really hope to come back.

We stayed at Villa Perla near Castellamare for a week. It is a beautiful villa, and the outside space is exceptional. There is lots of outside seating, a beautiful garden and a lovely pool. It is a short walk to the beach and a good base to explore the area. We enjoyed it tremendously.
Select Sicily were kind and helpful.

Selinunte, A Spiritual Retreat- Soothe Your Soul

Wow. An amazing 10 days in a West Sicilia old town of Selinunte in a gorgeous villa 1 km away from the Mediterranean Sea. From the villa situated in the midst of olive groves and vineyards you are walking distance to the 5th Century Greek Ruins of Selinunte.

All the staff of Select Sicily were uber competent and cordial in all the communications from Lavinia in the office to Aldo Morici who personally manages the property. A beautiful welcome basket and a huge bowl of delicious Sicilian fruit were provided us upon arrival.

The villa and its annex were more than amble room for the four of us to spread out in our own private "pads". The well-maintained grounds of 2+ acres and the gorgeous pool with waterfall were an extraordinary way for us to "chill" after a day of touring at the amazing sites a short drive away. Erice, Traponi, Scopello, Agreigento were. highlights of our day trips. The food and wine are some of the best in the world.

We had a dinner prepared on June 1 at the villa by the renowned chef from Castelveltrano named Gabriella. Gabriella is one in a million, beautiful, educated and culinary skills that exceed Michelin stars. Wow, we had the most memorable time the entire 10 days and Gabriella's dinner will be a highlight for the remainder of my life.
