Villa vacation rentals in Gioiosa Marea

This place has been a highlight of our trip. It is peaceful, comfortable, very spacious and full of character. Our hosts were amazing, friendly, full of local knowledge and very prompt answering any questions we had. Our arrival was welcoming with delicious snacks provided and a free guided tour of how to get to the best local shops. It is close to everything that you would want to see and there is a restaurant within walking distance. The outside shower is amazing, but there are also 2 indoor alternatives. Jane and Bill

We enjoyed our stay at Miro’s home. It’s a new home with lots of space. The beds were comfortable. The home is perched up on a hill just on the outskirt of the main city which provides amazing ocean views! The area is also very peaceful. The kitchen is large and well equipped. Miro and Antonette were very helpful and responsive to all our needs. Thank you Miro and Antonette!

Ganz tolle Villa für alle, die Ruhe suchen. Die Küche hat alles was man braucht und noch mehr. Die Aussicht ist spektakulär. Der Pool herrlich. Wir waren begeistert!

The villa is on a hill with a fantastic view of the water. The outdoor space was very large and wonderful for relaxing and enjoying the view. I can't begin to share how clean the house was - it was like walking into my Nonna's house where everything was squeaky clean and you could eat off the floors. The house was extremely clean and well taken care of with everything you would need for your stay. Salvatore and his mom were super nice and very helpful with recommendations and advice. It was a joy working with them. Salvatore shared with us a local bakery at the bottom of the hill for fresh baked goods, pizza and bread and it was excellent. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Our family of 5 had a wonderful time at Alberto’s home. He and his wife are wonderful hosts. The house was spacious and provided a small outdoor space for the kids as well to play ping pong! It’s in a great location for traveling to different sites: Downtown Milazzo - 10min Taormina - 1hr 30min Palermo/Catania - 2 plus hrs While we enjoyed our stay it’s important to note the home is in a community and there is really nothing that is walking distance. You will need to drive anywhere you’re trying to go. Overall we’d highly recommend staying here!

We had a great time in Sicily and enjoyed our stay in the house, everything we needed and nice quiet surroundings

Abbiamo soggiornato a Lipari in una vacanza irripetibile. Ho interagito con persone oneste disponibili e ho utilizzato tutti i servizi di accoglienza a disposizione. Ho soggiornato nella casa di Ezio un Host disponibile sotto tutti i punti di vista. Al check in ha speso due ore del suo tempo alle 21:30 di sera per fornire informazioni sulla casa molto bella e accogliente, comoda fornita di tutti gli accessori che servono per soggiornare comodamente e sui luoghi e servizi delle isole. Mi ha indicato anche un App dedicata "Estateolie2" che ci è stata molto utile. È stato gentile a fornire un servizio Taxi molto utile soprattutto per l arrivo in tarda ora in un posto che non conosci. Tornerò a Lipari nella casa di Ezio.

Sonia was extremely helpful and attentive. The villa is absolutely beautiful and has plenty of great space where everyone can relax. Views of Etna and the ocean! Very safe gated community and peaceful. Riposto is a great spot to enjoy on its own (marina, fish market, beaches) or to easily get to Taormina, Etna, Catania, Siricusa/Ortigia. Sonia will help you with advice on local activities, questions/tips about your plans, or will plan things for you. We were here on a family trip (2 adults and young teenagers) and couldn't have been more pleased.

This was the most magical Airbnb experience ever. Guiseppe and Giulia are the most hospitable Hosts I have ever come into contact with. They went above and beyond to make our stay the best. The villa is incredible with massive outdoor grounds to enjoy and a very beautiful large deep clean pool. Inside the villa is exactly as described but better! They were gracious and filled the fridges with many drinks to enjoy. They met us at the toll booth and escorted us to the villa and then drove us around town later to familiarize ourselves to the area and provided many dining recommendations. They were even so kind as to make reservations under their family name and deliver the most amazing desserts I have ever had! The location of the villa is perfect for day trips to Savoca and Taormina and surrounding areas. To have such a beautiful peaceful villa to return to made this our own slice of heaven! I would return in a heart beat. Thank you Giuseppe and Giulia for the most amazing stay.

My family and I stayed at Villa Vittorianna for a week in June. The property is beautiful, with panoramic views of Giardini Naxos, the Adriatic Sea + Taormina (from the pool) and Mt. Etna (from the rooftop deck). The surrounding neighborhood had easy access to many excellent restaurants, cafes and beach clubs. Emanuele was a great host and Oli, the local property manager was extremely friendly and responsive. I recommend this stay for anyone looking for a luxurious beach getaway in Sicily. We will remember this week for years to come.

This is the most beautiful home I’ve ever been. House is clean, each bedroom has its own bathroom, swimming pool is great and clean, the house has a huge kitchen and 2 washer machines, the kitchen has everything you need to cook and Ignazio the owner is very nice and he welcomed us with a wine bottle and a big basket with essential items for cooking. We had our wedding there and it was the most perfect location, definitely we are planning coming back soon.

We had a fabulous stay at this lovely villa. Lella met us upon our arrival and had taken care to get the supplies we had requested. She sent us a short video on how to find the shortcut down the hill to town, which was easy to follow (be prepared for 130 steps), along with restaurant recommendations. The plunge pool was a godsend in the heat. We had a great time.

Piccolo Casale är ett perfekt boende när man vill ha lugn och ro. Huset är unikt och hemtrevligt. Fantastisk utsikt och fin pool och trädgård! Fint bemötande av Maria som guidade oss till huset och hade förberett en middag. Kan verkligen rekommendera Piccolo Casale!

Beautiful villa, spacious outdoor area, saltwater pool was fantastic. Fully equipped kitchen and BBQ area. Very clean and well presented throughout. Communication with host was faultless, all questions and calls were answered promptly. Villa was very private, we hired a car but Uber was very reliable and good value. Local restaurant Blue Ice was very good. Highlight was visiting nearby Taormina both on an evening and during the day. I would most certainly recommend Villa Flara and the beautiful island of Sicily. 🍋💕

We encountered hosts + villa we can honestly say—-amazing + even more than we expected! Louisa + Chiara were so wonderful + accommodating, suggesting local activities + restaurants, booking our wish list + providing great advice. The villa is absolutely beautiful, spacious + decorated with the most eclectic artwork. There is A/C in the two bedrooms for comfortable sleeping and numerous porches and balconies to sit and have a meal or cooling drink in the afternoon. The views are lovely + we enjoyed breakfast daily on the porch off our bedroom overlooking Taormina. It is about a 7 minute walk down the hillside to the center of town. You will really appreciate your private retreat of Villa Britannia after a busy day in town or the beach! There is also a large gourmet kitchen stocked with all you need if you love to “cook at home”. Louisa provided us with eggs, milk , cold bottles of water + bread on arrival which was very sweet. This is perfect for couples, families or bride and groom. ❤️

Дуже класна вілла, в якій є все необхідне для комфортного відпочинку, а головне - шикарний вид. Федеріка дозволила заселитися раніше, бо наш пором прибув вранці, і допомогла добратися до вілли, але локація на GoogleMaps відображається неправильно. Дорога від машини до вілли займає 5 хвилин, але спуск досить крутий, носити багато валіз було важко. Дорога до пляжу займає 10-15 хвилин, спуск теж крутий, але пляж вартий того, там завжди мало людей. Сам острів Ліпарі неймовірний! Туристів було небагато, ми на авто обʼїхали його навколо, часто їздили на пляж у Кането. Ми були на власному авто, не уявляю відпочинку тут без авто. Раджу принаймні орендувати. Досить складно було в таку спеку без кондиціонерів, у приміщеннях є лише вентилятори на стелях. Бували глюки з температурою води в душі (не йшла гаряча), а також дуже поганий WiFi, часто відключався, та й сигнал був постійно слабкий. Ще там достобіса комарів, мене дуже сильно покусали, хоча ми й запалювали спіраль. Загалом, рекомендую!

Отличное место! Удобно до всех основных достопримечательностей. Хозяин очень помог в организации местных приключений!

Lovely house tucked away behind the bustling main street in beautiful Taormina. It is very close to a number of restaurants and eateries, yet is private and peaceful. Livio was a very attentive host, giving us many excellent recommendations and offering us the opportunity to leave our bags at the house to fit in with our arrival and departure. Highly recommend!

It was a very pleasant stay. The house is well-equipped and private. The road is a little noisy, but nothing bad. Convenient supermarket nearby, and easy to get to Naxos, Toarmina, and other cities. Cooking was very pleasant. Small addition: Larger glasses would be great, as would an ice cube maker and a shampoo and shower gel holder in the bathrooms.

This house is a 10/10. we spend our first vacation as little family with our 6 month old daughter at Diana and Antonio’s beautiful home and we couldn’t have wished for a more relaxing, peaceful and cozy house. The hosts created a place with so much attention and love for detail, every item, peace of furniture and decoration is picked thoughtfully and fits perfectly into the aesthetic of the old stone house and it’s beautiful Olive Garden surroundings. The hosts are super friendly, helpful and kind. They made sure we didn’t go hungry on the day of our arrival, prepared a freshly homecooked meal and even provided a food basked for us with all kinds of tasty local food and lots of fresh lemons, oranges and mandarins. The view from The pool is just stunning, you can watch the sun set behind the mountains while the lights of the little town pettineo start to light up. We had a wonderful time, we will definitely come back 💛

The villa was above and beyond what we imagined! The pictures do not do it justice! The hosts went above and beyond to welcome us into their own, helping us with every need and question. The included breakfasts were fantastic and we had the villa owner cook for us one night served by the pool and it was by far one of the best meals we had in all of Italy. The pool was such a special treat each evening after our day visiting Mt Etna (super close to access) or around town. We would highly recommend this place as it’s spacious (we had 8 and there was extra room) and the hosts really went above and beyond to help us with every need! The only downside we had was that we only stayed for 2 nights! We will return to Sicily just to stay at this villa again! Va bene! Grazie mille!

We had the pleasure to enjoy the villa dei sogni for almost two weeks. Like our first visit, it was again just breathtaking. The house, the pool and especially the view, absolutely amazing! See you next time, villa dei sogni!

Un angolo di magia tra le colline siciliane Abbiamo soggiornato in questo AirBnb incantato e ne siamo rimasti profondamente affascinati. Il consiglio è di arrivare prima del calare della sera: il GPS suggerisce strade molto strette, che possono mettere un po’ in apprensione, ma seguendo le indicazioni di Cinzia si raggiunge il luogo in tutta serenità. Ne vale davvero la pena! Il luogo è semplicemente magico, curato nei minimi dettagli, immerso nella bellezza selvaggia e autentica della natura. Ogni angolo racconta una storia, ogni dettaglio trasmette amore e attenzione. Durante la notte, abbiamo assistito allo spettacolo suggestivo delle luci dell’Etna che brillavano dietro la collina: un’esperienza che ci ha lasciato senza parole. Come insegnante di yoga, posso dire che è anche un luogo perfetto per organizzare ritiri: silenzio, bellezza e ispirazione si fondono in un’armonia che nutre l’anima. Grazie di cuore per questa esperienza così speciale.

It would take more than five stars to do right to our experience with Villa Artemis. So far we always had good experiences with the accomedations we booked via AirBnB, but Villa Artemis totally exceeded our already high expectations. It was simply perfect. The house is spacious, tastefully decorated, and with no less than two living/dining rooms and two bathrooms. Outside the house there is are plenty of places to sit and relax with wonderfull views on both the sea and the Etna. The house is clean and well equiped. Everything you need for a great and carefree holliday is there. This review wouldn't be complete however if I didn't mention the family that hosts the place. Francesco, Giovanna, Antionio and Valeria were very kind, always willing to assist. They helped us out more than once. We are really happy to have met them, and hope to meet again.
