Carmelo, what a wonderful first time to Sicily vacation home to spend time in. We have loved beautiful Savoca and the incredible food we have had while here. We also had an extra treat of having Giovanni cook for us. All we can say to that is: “Wow – wow – wow!” Beautiful views and location. We have all enjoyed so much. Your attention to detail and excellence in customer service were so appreciated. You have great suggestions on activities and restaurants as well. Thank you for everything. Cheers from Canada, Australia and UK Susan, John, Alex, Victoria, Jordan, Kayleigh

Dear Carmelo, the family enjoyed your beautiful home. We enjoyed all its comforts and the proximity to Savoca makes it magical. You were a pleasure and very helpful with any question. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful experience with us The D’Alessio\McCarthy |Cooper families Las Vegas, Nevada and Nashvill, Tennesse residents!

We had a thoroughly lovely stay at this beautiful villa. Carmelo was the perfect host providing excellent recommendations for local restaurants, boat trips and visits to Taormina. He was very responsive to all our enquiries. The villa itself is exceptionally well equipped with everything you could want for a relaxing stay. The location of the villa is perfect overlooking Savoca and the valley below down to the sea. Savoca is beautiful bustling Sicilian village with a really wonderful selection of bars and restaurants within walking distance. I can highly recommend this villa and it’s wonderful location within easy reach of Taormina, the coastline and Mount Etna

We booked Zagara Bianca to bring the family together from around the world. What a beautiful and peaceful place to spend a week together. From the 'Hugo spritz' in the piazza, to the delicious focaccia bianca - we ate, drank, slept and swam... Carmelo - you were a wonderful host - thank you for your hospitality and inside tips to Savoca - it was a holiday we'll never forget. Haumi e, hui e, taiki e! - The Aitken family, New Zealand

Our family six adults booked to stay here for a family get together to celebrate a birthday. We stayed for a week and it was just perfect for us. Everything is as described on the website (probably better) and there are plenty of things to do in or around Savoca. There is a supermarket at the bottom of the hill around ten minutes drive away, which has everything you need. The property has been perfectly maintained and presents as new. We would have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone. Finally, Carmello the host/owner is a great guy and was 10/10 fantastic at communication before and during the stay. I think it is important that you are dealing with the owner rather than through a manager and this is the case here. Thanks again for your hospitality Carmelo.

Carmelo, Isa, Enzo and Diego, our deepest appreciation for your hospitality and kindness.

Molte grazie e tanti auguri! Con amore, famiglia Gekas - Lewisberry, PA USA. P.S. The birthday torta was delicious!!!

Dear Carmelo and team, thanks for letting my family stay in your fab villa for 14 days. We spent quite a few days by the salt water pool and enjoyed everything about the villa. We also enjoyed the local restaurants in Savoca. Our favorite was Pipispezzi. See you next time!
-
Dear Carmelo & Isa, thank you so very much for the most enjoyable week we have experienced here at Zagara Bianca. Your special personal attention combined with the beautiful, spacious villa made it a perfect stay for our week long family holiday from Australia. We loved the pool and the BBQ facilities (and the meal prepared by outside chef, Giovanni, on one of the nights). My favorite experience was the sound of the bells at 8 am and 6 pm each day with the Ave Maria from St. Nicolo's church (perfectly heard from beside your pool). Best wishes from Australia

Dear Carmelo and Isa, We have had a lovely week in Sicily staying in your villa. We recommend: A visit to Dioniso for the wine but also for the olive oil tasting! A walk around Savoca Cooking with pistachio pesto, perfect with pasta and stock up with pistachio cream to take home with you. Costa di S. Alessio beach was the best one found Nice granita and good snorkelling A visit to the Gole d'Alcantara, buy the walking tour. It may be unconfortably busy in high season, but it was not busy at all in late may

The villa is so spacious, comfortable and tasteful decorated that it was the perfect place for our holidays with two families. We enjoyed the breathtaking view to the village, the mountains and the sea. Everytime we come back for trips to Etna, Taormina or Messina it feels like going home. You created a really wonderful place. Thank you for your warm hospitality. We will keep this place in a very good memory. Martin and the two families
