Fantastic location, great view out to the sea across the lemon trees. We loved the roof terrace for a glass of wine in the evening whilst the sun set. Villa is very comfortable, clean, modern, and in keeping with its surroundings. Very peaceful and great location for visiting all the local baroque towns. Whilst we were there the large villa was empty and having the place to ourselves was fab. Might be a slightly different vibe if the senior villa was rented is the only thing I would keep in mind. Guglielmo is a great host, nothing is too much trouble! Highly recommend

Everything was fantastic, lonely place in the nature in a very special airy brigth house with a big nice garden.

e spent the last week with our girls in your villa in Vindicari. We would like to thank you for the possibility of staying in your place. The stay there was very pleasant for us and allowed for a real rest. The villa itself is unique, very aesthetic and we appreciate the care with which the interior is finished. Perhaps an even greater advantage is its location. We have the impression that if it was not for your place, we would get to know a completely different, less interesting Sicily. In your place, we have tasted what, in our opinion, Sicily has the best to offer. The garden, meadows and groves as well as the closeness the nature reserve turned out to be the greatest advantage of visiting the island.
The stay in your place took place at a time when we received bad news about the beginning of the war in Ukraine - a country that is very dear to us. It touched us a lot then and, of course, it still touches and concerns us. I think that also for this reason the memory of staying there will always be with us. I think we even left a piece of our hearts there actually. We just love your place. Thank you once again
And we wish you all the best

Beautiful place for rest.
Hope to get back one day.

Thanks for the great time

The junior villa is located at a prime position to visit Valle di Noto and Vendicari nature reserve. This time of the year the almond trees were in full bloom, which was great. The villa had everything we needed. The free view to the sea and the natural setting and great architecture make the house special. The host was always available and gave good tips for further explorations.

Great host, great place. I can only recommend to stay in Villa Vendicari. Thanks for everything Guglielmo!!

Wir waren eine wundervolle Woche in Guglielmo's Villa. Der Ort ist sehr ruhig und idyllisch gelegen. Die Küste ist nicht weit und auch das Naturschutzgebiet in der Nähe ist wunderschön und lädt zum Wandern ein, gerade auch im Winter, wenn die Landschaft grün ist und alles blüht. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen, schön ausgestattet und mit tollem Garten und Pool. Am Abend haben wir das Kaminfeuer sehr genossen und am Morgen das Frühstück auf der Terrasse.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Weinerliches Haus mit dem Grundstück und sehr guter Ausstattung. Wir waren im Winter da. Es war auch recht kühl und man musste mit dem Kamin heizen. Das hat alles gut funktioniert.

  Albrecht / Germany

Yes we all enjoyed our stay in the villa. It is so well designed and equipped. Great art 
We had several sunny days allthough it was a Bit cold
But With the fire no problem 
The pool has to wait when we come again

Ciao Guglielmo!
Qui tutto bene, siamo stati benissimo. Grazie ♥️
La casa ci ha dato la possibilità di trascorrere dei momenti davvero molto piacevoli, malgrado il tempo poco favorevole... 
Comunque siamo riusciti ba vedere dei luoghi splendidi come la riserva di Vendicari, Noto, Marzamemi, Siracusa, il Castello di Donna Fugata, Ragusa Ibla e la pasticceria il Ciclope di Pachino. ♥️♥️♥️
Avendo avuto il piacere di incontrarti e abbiamo colto ancora di più  la tua grande ospitalità e questo ha reso ancora più piacevole la nostra vacanza. La tua casa è splendida  ed il luogo in cui si trova emana un  una grande energia!

The previous guest reviews already tell a lot about how nice and beautiful vindicari and its surroundings are. The natural reserve and its amazing beaches, the endless orange, lemon and olive tree fields, the canyons or the surrounding baroque towns of Noto, Siracusa or Modica will provide you with the postcard atmosphere you probably seek after when going to Sicily. Yet there is something even more Special about Guglielmo‘s place. Once your enter the property, you will be struck by the harmony and peacefulness of the garden and the way it‘s been built and grown… The architecture of the villa is very unique organic. With no square angles, thick round walls and wide windows, it is both modern, minimalistic and yet gives a feeling of rural roots and cultural tradition. The terrasse and roof spaces will provide you with the same feeling of cosiness and unity with the surrounding natural and historical landscape and that feeling will last while you walk down the garden to pick some fruits or herbs or just enjoy the view. The junior Villa has everything you need, we slept very well on the bed and the space is very convenient for a couple with or without an infant. You might want to check the senior Villa of you have the extra buck as it seems even more cosy, airy and thought through down to every detail. There was a family in the senior Villa during our stay and although both houses are very close and share facilities, we didnt feel akwardly close. You can both connect with the neighbor house or keep your privacy. We spent a week in vindicary in mid November. You will need a car (at anytime of the year) and a lot of the shops and restaurants or activities are closed at that time but we didn‘t mind because we were almost alone everywhere we went, which in turn can be delightful considering how crowdy those places can be in high season. Last but not least, Guglielmo was a very kind host, very reactive, thoughtful and caring and although we did not meet in Person, he made check in and all of our stay very easy and pleasant. Above all we were very impressed by how he designed and thought that place through and loved this ecologic and architectural jewel!

Thanks for hosting us! Great place!

  Pietro / Switzerland

Posto bellissimo. Atmosfera speciale. Hôte super disponibile per scoprire i segreti della zona… che sono tanti!

  Louise / Denmark

We stayed for 6 wonderful days at junior villa Vendicari (2 adults and 2 kids). The Villa is really nice, clean and simply with the most wonderful view and relaxing surroundings. It was the perfect place to explore Noto, Marzememi, Siracusa and just the lovely beaches nearby. We give the best recommendation. Guglielmo was easy to communicate with and gave us a lot of good recommendations. Would love to be back:) Thank you.

Thank you so much for making our stay so lovely☺️

The architecture of the house is simply amazing, and the views and the garden are stunning. We'll hopefully return with better weather next time :)

We vacationed at Villa Vendicari along with a group of our closest friends and family to celebrate our marriage. It was an absolutely magical experience. Our host, Guglielmo met us when we arrived, greeted us with the warmth of a true friend, and gave us an extensive and informative tour of the beautiful villa. Throughout our stay, he checked in regularly via text and made himself available for questions from each member of our group. The space is well equipped for cooking, reading, swimming, lounging, stargazing, and gathering indoors or outdoors. There are lots of comfy seating areas where we spent time relaxing and talking late into the night. The views of the tranquil garden landscape and expansive Mediterranean Sea are more gorgeous than the pictures can fully capture. We asked about a recommendation to have an in-home meal prepared, and his suggestion of Jennifer was a high point of an already amazing experience. The meal was incredible. She even shopped for provisions before we arrived so we could head straight from the airport to the villa and enjoy our first evening and morning without having to go shopping first. The trip, the space, and the gracious hosting surpassed our expectations, and we hope to come back to celebrate our 5th or 10th anniversary!

ottima soluzione, grande cortesia e organizzazione

  Eva / Switzerland

L’emplacement de la Villa Vendicari est idéal, localisée aux abords de la réserve, elle se trouve à quelques minutes en voiture de très belles plages. Les alentours sont magnifiques et très bien entretenus, l’architecture accueillante, avec de grandes pièces. Guglielmo est un hôte accueillant et précautionneux, il a su prendre soin de nous !

Wir waren in den Herbstferien 2018 u 2019 in der größeren Villa und haben beide Urlaube sehr genossen. Wir waren im Vorfeld etwas unsicher, ob es nervig sein würde, wenn die kleinere Nachbarvilla an andere Gäste vermietet sein würde, was absolut nicht der Fall war. In beiden Jahren waren dort zeitweilig auch Gäste, was aber völlig unproblematisch war, eher sogar im Gegenteil, wir haben einen netten Abend mit Wein auf einer der Dachterrassen verbracht. Es ist in jedem Fall auf dem Grundstück und am Pool so viel Platz, dass nicht die Gefahr besteht, aufeinander zu hocken. Es ist einfach ein wunderschöner Ort, wir lieben das Haus mit seinen Kunstobjekten, den Garten. Guglielmo, der Besitzer, ist total nett und hilfsbereit. Uns hat auch die Lage überzeugt, von Catania ist man relativ schnell dort, das Naturschutzgebiet ist sehr schön, die Barockstädte sind gut zu erreichen, Villa Romana del Casale geht auch innerhalb von einem Tag. Wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder. (Die Häuser Konstellation ist auch optimal für eine Familie + ein Paar oder Eltern/Schwiegereltern).

  Alessandro / Italy

Magnificent location super fast and handy communication... the villa is stunning and very centric to visit the South eastern Sicily... very quiet place to relax after the tours you will do. we will come back for sure

grazie mille Guglielmo, eravamo già innamorati della Sicilia ma con quel panorama ancora di più

  Jochen / Germany

Wir haben die kleinere Villa Vendicari Junior zu zweit bewohnt und hatten sehr viel Platz und Komfort. Die Gebäude sind in einzigartigem Stil und konsequent ökologisch gebaut auf einem riesigen Grundstück in der Natur mit Meeresblick, auf dem es viele schöne Ecken zu entdecken sowie ein Schwimmbad gibt. Wir waren begeistert. Von hier aus lassen sich diverse Touren starten (Barockstädte, Ätna, Cava Grande, viele Strände). Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, Guglielmo persönlich kennenzulernen, der uns das Konzept des Hauses und die Technik begeistert erklärte. Danke für die warme Gastfreundschaft. Wir können diese Unterkunft, auch das größere Haus, sehr empfehlen

Noto is now on my list as super special places to return to.   You really have quite a spot.  And the design of the home and it’s placement on the land is outstanding.  If it’s your brainchild - congrats on having such wonderful design skills.   I am in the real estate business back in the US - so I recognize talent and great design when I come across it.  There is a simple, subtle elegance here that is unmistakable - and will leave a nice (positive) mark!

I stayed here for two weeks to write and just wind down - and I don't think I've stayed in a place more beautiful or inspiring in a long time - really spectacular. The house itself is chic, stylish, minimalist and has all mod cons, from coffee makers to hairdryers to every detail you'll need to cook a huge Sicilian meal. The sea is visible from the house, too, which is a huge added bonus. Olive trees, vineyards and orchards are everywhere surrounding the property and the spectacular Baroque town of Noto, is just a short drive away. I had come here to work but never expected to feel so relaxed and recharged by the end of the trip - and as someone who doesn't drive, we never once felt isolated. Guglielmo the owner was wonderful - friendly, fluent in English and available anytime (via phone or email) I needed to ask a question or had a request. I want to come back here for a month off season - most relaxing trip ever :))

In mid-October and in turbulent times we wonderfully recovered in Guglielmos oasis of well-being. The house is not only architecturally very special and designed with attention to detail, but also very comfortably furnished, starting with the large refrigerator, the sandwich maker and the juicer for freshly squeezed orange juice, so it is fun to cook at home or to roast steaks on the charcoal grill outside under the impressive stellar sky (the restaurants in the surrounding area are also highly recommended, especially fish in Marzamemi). In the very extensive garden pomegranates, lemons and prickly pears grow. If you don't feel like going to one of the beaches in the Riserva naturale orientata Oasi Faunistica di Vendicari (our highlight: Spiaggia Calamosche), the swimming pool offers a great alternative for refreshment. Gulgielmo himself helps out with tips, usually within minutes, an incredibly friendly and cordial host. Unfortunately the time was too short and the evenings too fresh to make full use of the large terrace, the tree house (!) and the roof terrace with sea view. For this we have to come back, and we will be happy to do so. Guglielmo's quarter made it into my all-time airbnb top 3 and is a hot candidate for the top spot.

Thank you again for the stay in your house. We are glad that we found it and will love to return (we will contact you directly than). Best, Till
