Amazing Sicily Stay

I stayed at this property for a week, the property was well placed to access all the areas of Sicily we planned to visit. The property not only has a great view, but it also has fantastic amenities, that allowed us to enjoy our time there even more. The host was very communicative and forthcoming with information for our stay. We would happily stay here again.

Relaxing hillside hideaway

There is a certain amount of effort required to access this amazing villa but the rewards are truly worth it. Spectacular views, mountain air, private pool, every facility you could wish for. Walter leaves nothing to chance every facility is in good working order and instructions are thorough from the directions to the village to the multitude of domestic equipment all of which was in perfect working order,. My partner and I had the most wonderful week in and around Castel Umberto - made use of the mountain bikes pool and gardens plus excursions to Capo de Orlando and Tindari both very worth visiting. Could not recommend this place more highly.

Family visit

Great home in a lovely quiet location with fab views. Excellent comms with the owner. The road up to the house is a bit of a challenge but its fine really. Pizza restaurant below next door (which you can't hear). The local village has a small store for provisions and the bar across the road does great coffee.

Fantastic house with stunning views

The four of us enjoyed our visit to Casa Nel Paradiso immensely. The modern house is in a stunning hillside location with spectacular views to the coast, even from the swimming pool immediately in front of the living room and terrace. The house is superbly equipped, and was spotlessly clean and well-appointed. We wanted for nothing. We visited the adjacent Pizzeria Bellavista (invisible and inaudible from the house) twice - the food and service were excellent and the prices extremely modest. The local people were exceedingly friendly (we were often recognised out and about by locals - including the local school bus driver and a policeman), particularly the couple that ran the supermarket in Sfaranda (who kindly booked us a restaurant table and, later, provided free coffee too!!) and the owners of the excellent Trattoria Braco in the same village where we enjoyed a never-ending stream of anti-pasti dishes, pizza and wine, with charming and attentive service from our hosts. There was no menu or price list, but we paid a mere 85 Euros for 4 people, including several litres of good local wine! A bargain. The nearest beach resort, at Capo D'Orlando (about 40 minutes drive), is beautiful with amazing views of the Aeolian Islands offshore. It's an upmarket town with a gorgeous promenade and a long, free beach. We also visited the nearbly Floresta, reputedly the highest village in Sicily, which is slightly more Alpine and provides excellent views of Mount Etna. We cannot criticise Casa Nel Paradiso in any way and would thoroughly recommend it - however, we should point out that the drive up to the house (and indeed driving in Sicily) is not for the faint-hearted, it is very steep, narrow and twisting with precipitous drops. An automatic car is recommended, together with fully-comp insurance and every damage waiver you can get!!

Un p'tit coin de paradis entre mer et montagne

Superbe petite maison nichée entre mer et montagne. La maison est décorée avec goût et rien ne manque. Cadre exceptionnel, couchers de soleil à couper le souffle, calme absolu ! La piscine est bien chauffée. Jardin exceptionnel avec de superbes roses et agapanthes de fleurs ainsi que des citronniers, une vigne et un arbre à kiwi... :-) Merci beaucoup pour ce havre de paix, mais prévoir une voiture car ça grimpe sec pour arriver à la villa :-) Merci pour tout !

Beautiful Views and quiet location!

My husband and I stayed for 2 weeks as we drove around Sicily, and visited family in Calabria. This house, although difficult to get up to, was the perfect place to retreat to if you don’t want the chaos and hustle of a city. Also it was very hot (summer in Sicily!) and the pool was a wonderful way to refresh at the end of the day, and to pass a “villa day” where we enjoyed all day!

Außergewöhnlich schön - mehr als man erwarten kann

Ein Haus, wie man es für sich selbst bauen, einrichten und bewohnen würde. Alles (und noch viel mehr) drin, dran und drumherum, um komfortabel, geschmackvoll und luxuriös Urlaub zu machen. Ein Geschenk, das Haus mieten zu können. Wir fanden es sehr großzügig, wirklich alles nutzen zu dürfen. Wunderschöne Lage und Sicht aufs Meer, die herrlichen Berge und Täler satt grün und blühend.

Ideal zum Entspannen

Ein wunderschön gelegenes und sehr gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus. Es ist etwas abgelegen, was ideal ist, wenn man einen schönen ruhigen Urlaub verbringen möchte, ein Mietwagen ist aber absolut notwendig! Das Haus befindet sich auf einer Höhe von ca. 650 Metern. Dadurch ist das Klima hier sehr angenehm, wenn es an der Küste heiß und schwül ist. Im September kann es aber abends schon recht kühl werden, weshalb man lange Hosen und Pullover nicht vergessen sollte! Die Aussicht von der Terrasse über den Pool (den man abends beleuchten kann) ist einfach nur fantastisch und man kann sich jeden Abend auf eindrucksvolle Sonnenuntergänge freuen! Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen, gerade auch an den Tagen, an denen wir einfach nur "zu Hause" geblieben sind!

Urlaub de luxe 2.0

Bereits zum zweiten Mal, durften wir drei wundervolle Wochen lang unseren Urlaub in der Casa nel Paradiso verbringen. Wie bereits im letzten Jahr, waren unsere Erfahrungen von der Buchung, über die Vorabinformationen, bishin zum Aufenthalt und der Abreise, fabelhaft und tadellos. Herr Borghs ist der perfekte Gastgeber. Mehr als wir hier genießen durften, kann man sich nicht wünschen. Wer, wie wir, Abgeschiedenheit, Ruhe und Erholung vom stressigen Alltag sucht, ist hier perfekt aufgehoben. Natürlich eignet sich die Casa auch wunderbar als Basis für Ausflüge zum Strand, zur Erkundung des Nebrodi Nationalparks und auch der Ätna ist nicht allzu weit. Es muss erwähnt werden, dass ein Auto quasi unverzichtbar ist. Dies gilt für die erwähnten Ausflugsmöglichkeiten als auch für die Erledigung der alltäglichen Besorgungen. Wir bedanken uns von Herzen für diesen wunderschönen Urlaub und freuen uns definitiv schon heute auf unsere Wiederkehr.

The Perfect Base Camp For A Trip To Sicily

My wife and I have lived and traveled abroad for decades. This was our first trip to Sicily. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Fantastic views. Watched the sunset every day. Lovely little mountain village. The home itself appears almost brand new and is in excellent repair. Very comfortable and well-maintained. Restaurants and supermarkets close by. The folks in the village of St. George were friendly and helpful. Cannot recommend this home highly enough. No negatives.

Schöne Aussicht

Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Betten sind auch in Ordnung. Auch die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit sind schön. Die Aussicht ist wirklich wundervoll. Nicht gefallen hat uns die Fahrzeit bis zur Stadt cap Orlando - 45 min - Der Weg dorthin ist ein Abendteuer und nichts für schwache Nerven - auch wenn man sich der ital. Fahrweise anpasst. Das größte Abenteuer ist der Weg zum Haus mit einer imensen Steigung und einem Untergrund auf dem Allrad zum empfehlen ist.Wir hatten des öfteren Gegenverkehr und mussten einen schmalen Weg 100 - 200 m rückwärts runter da der Gegenverkehr mit mehreren Fahrzeugen war- dauerte ca. 45 min bis alles vorbei war- wir waren kurz davor das Auto einen Fiat 500 L im Dorf stehen zu lassen, weil der Weg zum Haus einfach unmöglich war.

Erholung für die Seele

Vom ersten Tag an fühlten wir uns sofort heimisch. Schon die Wegbeschreibung zum Haus war super gut, so dass wir ohne Probleme angekommen sind. Das Haus ist wunderschön eingerichtet und bietet alles, was das Herz begehrt. Wir fahren nun schon seit vielen Jahren nach Italien und hatten noch nie ein so allumfassend ausgestattetes Haus, geschweige denn solch super Matratzen. Bei aufgetretenen Fragen, erhielten wir vom Eigentümer umgehend eine Rückmeldung. Das allerschönste aber waren die Ruhe und die grandiose Aussicht. All das hat zu einer wunderbaren Erholung beigetragen. Man kann also sagen, das gesamte Paket hat gestimmt. Wir kommen wieder
