Un soggiorno nella Sicilia orientale davvero splendido così come le giornate di sole che ci hanno fatto apprezzare ancor più le nostre meravigliose bellezze naturali. La villa Vendicari di Guglielmo è incantevole ha un suo fascino minimalista, funzionalità ed estetica rispondono perfettamente a tutte le esigenze che un soggiorno in un luogo come la riserva naturale di Vendicari. Guglielmo ci ha fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie per usufruire al meglio della struttura.

It was really enjoyable week in Guglielmo eco-Villa. Very stylish design, quiet and peaceful area with the big garden in national park. Kitchen equipped with everything you can need, the fireplace in January gave additional coziness to the house atmosphere. The villa is very spacious and full of light, with coffee you can invite the sunrise from the bedroom. Thank you Guglielmo and the family for hospitality and the chance to relax in our holiday in such a beautiful location

A marvellous location, overlooking to the east the mediterraneo and the Vendicari bird reserve. The house is off grid and that makes it an even better experience. Architect-wise it is a very beautiful house, incredibly efficient and containing all material needed in the kitchen, very extended equipment. We enjoyed every minute. We enjoyed the location. I can highly recommend this house. I can also highly recommend Guglielmo, he is a fast, clear en reliable communicator. The house was clean, there was a warm welcome with mediterranean vegetables and food. There was plenty of sun. We can recommend all of it. We hope to be back soon!

We had a fantastic stay at villa Vendicari.

Guglielmo really took good care of us. We could easily stay in contact (watsapp).
Because we agreed the housekeepers (a nice German couple) lived in the junior part, we lived in the senior villa. They were very helpful and welcomed us with a nice dinner when we arrived. That's really nice after a day's travel with kids.

The things we really liked and will never forget:
- Always somebody around to give you tips, help,....
- The free choice of a range wood, cleaning,...
- Fast, clear communication with gugliermo, the house sitters, the gardener
Info available (lonely planet, maps, user manuals,...)
- The great design, proportions of the luxury villa. The Eco friendliness of the design.
- Fresh orange juice on the sunbathing terrace with the great view.
- Good walking in the natural reserves nearby
- The looks on the central street in Noto (Gugliermo has good restaurants to advise)
- ...

Thanks a lot for the hospitality, you're always welcome at our place in Belgium

Best location ever, super equipped kitchen and cosy. Beautiful view. Close to Bird reserve Vendicari. Off grid and very wel designed. I love the place and can recommend this place to everyone who is conscious of the climate and our energy. Would love to visit this place again.

We, a family with two young kids, stayed at Guglielmo's place for two weeks in February.

It was simply fantastic.

We stayed in the smaller of the two houses which was still absolutely big enough for us. The house is very interesting and blends in nicely with its beautiful surroundings. We already miss waking up with a view of the sunrise over the sea.

The garden is huge and offered our kids (and us) a lot of freedom to explore and enjoy. We were surprised by how green the area is this time of year (February), the almond trees started blossoming during our stay and it really felt like spring.

The house is located at the Vendicari nature reserve, which allows for very nice walks and nice beach days as well. There is plenty to explore in the area and with a car you get to the charming town of Noto in 15 minutes and to Syracusa in 35.

A trip to the Etna is a bit under 2 hours and the beautiful towns of Modica and Ragusa are within 1.5 hours away. Also in the area there are great nature walks to make at Cavagrande and a bit further away at Pantalica.

During our stay the day high temperature was between 13 and 17 degrees with a lot of sunshine. Great for walks. Also this time of year there aren't many tourists around, which means you will meet very few people in nature and the towns are calm as well.

The last few days of our stay we had the pleasure of meeting Guglielmo himself. He is a fantastic host and we enjoyed some dinners and a walk through the nature reserve together.

All in all this is really a one of a kind place both for a calm time at the house as for a base to explore the South East part of Sicily. Highly recommended.

Apartment's owner Comments
Hi Andreas thank you so much for being such wonderful guests and for your feedback! We are looking into the kitchen equipment and make sure to fill any gaps, sorry you weren't completely satisfied by the equipment. Sometimes it happens that if before a rent in the Junior House a guest has rented the whole property (both the houses) they often move a lot in the Senior House and maybe the cleaner didn't notice that something was missing.
Do make sure to tell us if you miss anything next time! Salvo is there twice a week and you can tell him directly or just write to us.
Great to hear otherwise your stay was great.
Looking fwd to seeing you again here!

We had a great time again in the Villa Vendicari Senior. It´s such a peaceful place, everybody finds a perfect spot at the property: on the terrasse, the roof top, the tree house, by the pool or if the weather shouldn´t be perfect it´s also cosy inside...

  guido romagnoli / Italy

una casa stupenda e anche molto funzionale oltre che vicina a posti bellissimi. abbiamo trascorso 3 giorni bellissimi 

  Heintze / Germany

The house is very nice and comfortable and suitable even for many persons. The garden is large, calm and nice. You can make use of all the fruits and herbs and just relax. The pool is also very nice, even long enough to swim. 
The owner, Guglielmo Parasporo, is very helpful with everything, answers immediately to questions, and there is also a gardener, Salvo, who comes regularly to see if there is s.th which you need or where you need help.
So, we had a wonderful vacation and can recommend the place.

  Helena / Germany

We spent a wonderful week in Guglielmo’s villa. The place is a beautiful modern villa with a minimalistic styling, surrounded by a wildlife garden. Despite the villa being modern it has the feeling of a very comfortable, cosy rural cottage. My girls loved the garden counting lizards and insects and of course playing in the tree house and pool. The villa is situated in a perfect position for nature lovers, as well as art lovers. It is a short drive to Baroque towns with their endless beauty such as Ragusa, Modica, Siracusa and Noto or the nature park of Vendicari or the wild beach Calamosche. Guglielmo is a great host, although he couldn’t meet us personally the telephone contact was very good, and Salvo (the gardener) was there for us if we needed anything. We would definitely stay at the Villa again when we return to Sicily.



Hi Guglielmo, we had a fantastic holiday, thank you. We would love to come back there one day. Sicily is such a fascinating place that I would love to see more.

Magical place, surrounded by butterflies and amazing views. Unique architecture and great facilities. Next time we will get some friends together and rent both villas! Great contact with owner and housekeeper, very helpful and friendly. Our 6yo loved it too.

In unserem Fall fand die Übergabe persönlich statt - Guglielmo, ein sympathischer, nahbarer und entspannter Typ. Das Objekt - ich möchte nicht Haus sagen, das wäre nicht ansatzweise genug - eine lange Auffahrt, das Haus eingebettet in jeder Menge Grün-liebvoll angelegt, viele kleine durchdachte Details mit der Liebe zur Natur. Clean, aber nicht kühl. GROß, aber dennoch gemütlich. Wir hatten Gewitter und Regengüsse - in dieser Umgebung gar kein Problem - die riesige Fensterfront wird zum Fernseher! Der Weg hinunter zum Pool einfach toll - diese Düfte von Rosmarin, Oregano und Salbei. Das Baumhaus so chillig. Man möchte sich an einen der Tische setzen und ein Buch schreiben, ein Bild malen oder einfach nur diese wundervolle Umgebung in sich aufsaugen.

haben wir uns TATSÄCHLICH wie bzw. besser als zu Hause gefühlt. Sooooo schön. Sooooo erholsam

  Loewen / Germany

Great house in a lovely surrounding. The kids loved the pool and the treehouse. We arrived late at night in Catania, finding the house was no problem. There is lots to see in the area, nice beaches in Vendicari. We love to come back!

  Thomas / Switzerland

Wir können die Villa wärmstens weiterempfehlen. Es gibt nichts zu bemängeln. 5 Sterne plus! Wir kommen gerne wieder. Mieter müssen sich bewusst sein, dass die Villa abgelegen ist um man zwingend ein Auto braucht

Dear Guglielmo, as mentioned, we had a great time in your villa. Everything - except the weather - was perfect. Hope to see you again. Regards, Thomas

We really had a wonderful time at the Villa Vendicari. It’s one of the most stunning places we ever stayed, a piece of architecture and design located in a quiet and awesome landscape, with a view to the sea and not far from nice beaches and the enchanting baroque cities like Noto and Modica. And the  nearby Nature Reserve is great for jogging and walking. 
There is a lot of space around the house, a garden with many different trees and a perfect pool and the tree house. 
In the Villa you can find many excellent design details but it is also comfortable and cosy. The terrace under a big olive tree offers you a fantastic place for outdoor living. 
Guglielmo is a welcoming and perfect host, the communication was very easy and he didn’t mind to adjust to our extra wishes . Also Salvo was very kind and gave us some good tips. 
All in all it was a fantastic holiday and we can only recommend this little piece of paradise.

Everything fantastic!!!

  Quinci / Italy

A Little Piece of Heaven! We loved the Villa and the surrounding area. The house is super clean, organized, equipped with everything you need, super comfortable...and very very stylist of course! It’s only 10min by car from Noto and less then 10min by car from some the best beaches in the area but you really don’t want to leave the house. Guglielmo is a “super-host”: always available, very responsive and extremely hospitable with his guests. He can share with you names and contacts of local “hidden gems” and he will make your stay even more special. When Guglielmo is not available Salvo is there to greet the guests and help. We could have not chosen a better place. We cannot wait to go back! Thank u Guglielmo!

Grazie Guglielmo per aver reso la nostra vacanza ancora piu’ speciale. Casa tua e’ meravigliosa...un piccolo angolo di paradiso. Non vediamo l’ora di tornare! 

  Stefanie / Germany

Tolles Haus, landschaftlich schöne Lage. Zum Einkaufen muss man etwas fahren. Super Kommunikation mit Guglielmo. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und konnten toll entspannen.

  Alec / United States of America

We had a great stay at Guglielmo's place. The villa is well-situated close to several great beaches and a couple nice restaurants (about 10 mins drive) if you don't fancy cooking for yourself. The property was well kept and everything in the villa worked as it should. Guglielmo was a great host!

  Alexandra / Germany

Wonderful house, great views - we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend for a relaxing vacation!
