Many many thanks for sharing with us this peaceful place you made. Everything was just perfect! We really enjoyed staying at Villa Azucena ... the fantastic gardens ... a real paradise for eyes, ears and scents ... I returned back to my childhood ... the beauty and the smell of the ancient house ... just priceless
Unbeatable - We stayed here for a week in July. The villa is absolutely amazing, beautifully finished, and so well maintained. It was genuinely such an enjoyable experience; but the best thing about the villa is the hosts. They were so welcome and friendly, and could not have done more to help. Would 100% recommend to anyone, and would love to come back again. Thank you so much for your hospitality.
This private Oasis is conveniently located between Ragusa Ibla and the Mediterranean Sea (Marina di Ragusa). The 17th Century farm has been meticulously restored. It is obvious that a lot of love and care went into the project to maintain its old charm while offering all of the modern conveniences to make your stay perfect. The private bedrooms are all beautifully decorated (simple sophistication), the beds are very comfortable, the sheets and towels - luxurious and the bathrooms are modern and lovely.
Many of the bedrooms have kitchenettes too (with a stove top, marble counter top and a few cabinets).
There are so many nice little touches in the Villa and bedrooms as well - Potted plants on the window sills, beautiful artwork, hand soaps in the bathrooms and crisp cotton bedding.
The main living area is spacious, airy, bright and very comfortable. There is always a nice light breeze blowing through the area. The large counter was perfect for sitting and having coffee and there is plenty of space for large groups to have dinner together in the dining area.
We were lucky enough to have the Villa cook for us on two occasions. The food was fresh, homemade, local cuisine and plentiful! It was delicious! The staff did a wonderful job cooking the food, serving it, setting a beautiful table adorned with fresh cut flowers from the property and attending to our every need.
Each morning one of the staff cleaned up the kitchen and living space for us as well which was a welcomed surprise.
The yard is serene and comfortable as well. We spent many hours in the pool and relaxing poolside – enjoying the lush flora and shade.
Finally, Salvatore and Michael were amazing and gracious hosts! They popped in with fresh basil from the garden, brought us freshly made buffalo mozzarella , provided coffee pods, fresh olive oil from the property, were always available for advice, and they even organized a ride for my 80 yr old father- in- law so he would not have to navigate driving through Ragusa for lunch one day. Salvatore was also kind enough to take several of us to see the local Ricotta farm (a Mom and Pop operation).
It was a 5 * experience in every way! We highly recommend this property.
We are all so grateful for these exceptional 10 days spent at Villa Zinna ... for your so nice welcome ... for the excellence of the cooking ... for the service provided by you and your nice staff ...
Sal, Michael and their staff were perfect, attentive hosts when needed (and invisible when not). Sal was extremely gracious, generous and brought an attention to detail in all that he did which was truly impressive. The arrangement of the central dining and recreation area relative to the pool is ideal – a really sociable set up. We had catering a few times, which was targeted to our needs and the quality was extremely high, with local ingredients and very good value local wine chosen on our behalf. The pasta-making course was also greatly enjoyable. We had a thoroughly wonderful time and would highly recommend the villa for large groups like ours. We're only just back home, but we'd love to return.
