Hello Thank you for arranging our stay in Sicily with Villa Classy. We had an absolutely lovely stay. <t was a perfect house to accommodate our party of 6 giving everyone enough space to spread out. It was like our own boutique hotel. The house and host were almost perfect in every way. The only suggestion we have is that there was poor lighting in the downstair kitchen area over the sink and also poor lighting in second floor bathroom. The water heater was turned a bit low for a really warm shower but it may have been due to multiple people using the different showers at the same time. These are all very minor suggestions for improvement. Such small things and otherwise we were so very pleased. Our host was prompt to respond to any request. We definitely will turn to Scent of Sicily should we plan another holiday there. AnnMarie Haldeman
Villa Arte was the perfect setting for our family stay and wedding week in Taormina — elegant, welcoming, and unforgettable. The Scent of Sicily team felt like friends, always kind and helpful. The villa’s charm and prime location made it feel like a dream. A true slice of paradise —great service!
We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful country house Villa Sciara. Everything was spotless and felt brand new, and the design of the home was both elegant and welcoming. What truly made our experience exceptional was Virginie’s warm hospitality — she was always available with helpful advice and support whenever we needed it.
Villa Ladybird was absolutely wonderful, with breathtaking views that exceeded our expectations. The villa was in perfect condition, and the support from Scent of Sicily and the owners was outstanding—helpful, attentive, and always available when needed.

What do guests mention in villa reviews?
Guests often mention private pools, sea views, outdoor dining, comfort, location and local support.
These details are useful because they describe the stay in practical terms. A review may explain whether the pool area works for children, whether the terrace is good for meals, or whether the villa feels quiet enough for a slow week in Sicily. Guests may also mention nearby beaches, parking, shops, restaurants and the help received before arrival or during the stay. See villas with private pools.
How do reviews help choose a villa?
Villa reviews help travellers compare real stays by comfort, pool, sea view, location and family needs.
Photos show the house, while reviews show how guests used it during the holiday. They can highlight whether a villa suits families, couples, groups, beach days, quiet pool time or day trips around Sicily. Reviews are especially useful when 2 villas look similar online but offer different layouts, outdoor spaces or access to the sea. Compare luxury villas in Sicily.
Are reviews linked to villa pages?
Yes, when a review refers to a specific property, the villa link leads to the full villa page.
Each villa page gives the key booking details: photos, capacity, bedrooms, bathrooms, pool information, nearby beaches, local distances, prices and availability. This helps travellers move from a guest comment to the full property details without losing context. It also makes the review more useful, because guests can check whether that same villa fits their group size, travel dates and preferred area of Sicily. View all villas in Sicily.
Can reviews help families choose a villa?
Yes, reviews help families understand whether a villa suits children, shared meals, pool time and quieter days.
Families often look for safe outdoor space, enough bedrooms, simple logistics, parking, easy beach access and support during the stay. Guest comments can reveal whether a terrace is comfortable for meals, whether the pool area feels practical, or whether the villa layout gives enough privacy for 2 families travelling together. They work best beside the full villa page, where capacity, bedrooms, bathrooms and pool details are listed. Explore family villas in Sicily.
Do reviews mention beach villas in Sicily?
Some reviews refer to beach villas or coastal villas with sea views, terraces and short access to the shore.
Guest comments can be useful when comparing a villa near the beach with one set slightly inland. They may mention walking distance, parking, terraces, wind, views or how easy it is to move between the sea and the villa during the day. This helps travellers choose between a coastal stay, a countryside villa with more space, or a base close to towns and restaurants. View beach villas in Sicily.
