About this property

Charming villa with PRIVATE POOL, blossoming garden and sea & Etna views

Villa Due Leoni is a charming villa on two floors with private pool and garden situated on a lemon estate halfway Catania and Taormina and at only 1 km from the sea and the village of Riposto, where you can find fresh fish every day.

The garden has been transformed into a real paradise with palm trees, perfect lawns and an orchard with all kind of fruit trees. From the terrace and the pool (10 x 10 meters, 140 cm deep) you can enjoy a stunning view on the coast and on Mount Etna, often puffing. The pool is open all year round.

"[T]his villa is truly on top of what we have experienced so far. Idyllically located in lemon plantation, Mt. Etna towering to the west and the Mediterranean sea to the east. The unspoilt village Riposto within easy reach by foot with several restaurants and local shops. Within short driving distances you even reach some of the most "necessary" attractions”. HH, Norway, October 2016

Villa Due Leoni consists of:
- Ground floor: a huge living space with dining table, sofa bed, lounge and fireplace, separate kitchen and toilet. From the living and the kitchen you can access the garden.

- First floor: three double bedrooms, a large corridor / bedroom with two bunk beds (four sleeps), two full bathrooms, and a huge terrace with view of the Etna and the sea. Stairs connects the terrace to the garden below. The terrace has a veranda with a big dining table.

All in all, Villa due Leoni is a peaceful and authentic Sicilian villa, ideal for friends and family who wish to explore the Eastern side of Sicily.

Please note that a caretaker lives in a separate part of the property and completely respects the privacy of the guests.

The following might be to be paid extra: Pool towels.

Review for stay from 26 April 2023 to 01 May 2023
Très bon séjour chez Maria Grazia & Pippo. La maison est très belle et le jardin absolument magnifique ! Nous sommes partis en famille à 9 avec des enfants et avons pu profiter pleinement de la maison et de la piscine. La vue est très belle, l'Etna d'un côté, le jardin de l'autre. Hôtes réactifs en cas de soucis ou questions. Les 3 vraies chambres sont confortables et disposent d'un balcon très agréable avec jolie vue sur le jardin. Les lits superposés sont eux dans un couloir traversant. La literie est très bonne. A savoir : le gardien vit dans la maison, ce que nous ne savions pas. Il est charmant mais je pense qu'il est important de préciser que du personnel vit dans la propriété et que d'autres personnes passent aussi quotidiennement. Mais en conclusion, la villa est très agréable et les hôtes aux petits soins. Nous avons même eu du vin de leurs propres vignes ! Grazzie !

Great spot and a wonderful host
The villa has a rustic charm and the outdoor patio area was a great space for all the family and the kids loved all the fruit trees. Really helpful that the pool and steps are gated off to keep safe for the children. Giovanni was super helpful and easy to contact. Great time had by all :-)
Stayed 7 nights in May 2023

Review for stay from 29 October 2022 to 04 November 2022
It was a beautiful house to spend 6 days with out family. Its importavgift to have car so you can go on trips from the house. The outside kitchen and the pool was amazing! The only thing that can be better is if they had lite more instruments for the kitchen. Other wise a great house and garden!
