This is an excellent villa and a perfect location for those who want to be in the centre of a village or town and yet still have access to the sea. Because the house is right in the village you can literally step outside and shop at the butcher, greengrocer, wineshop and supermarket with other shops, cafes and restaurants within a few minutes' walk. The sea is also very close, accessed from the rear gate, so combined with the lovely pool, the facilities are ideal. The house is very well equipped with quality furnishings and kitchen equipment. Best of all, there are many different places to sit in the very large garden including shady spots as well as 12 sun loungers! The owners are welcoming and helpful. We were able to message several times during the week and they always responded promptly. Unusually, we like to travel without hiring a car but Donnalucata is not brilliant for public transport (3 buses a day to Scicli, for example) and so details of local taxi firms would be useful. Another tip: it would be good to be more specific about the rooms; for example, one is accessed from another bedroom so is fine for children but not a group of friends. Also, some bedrooms have showers, some have baths and showers - it's useful to know. We had a lovely holiday and thoroughly recommend this amazing property.

Gorgeous villa in the small seaside town of Donnalucata. Everyone was extremely kind, they provided us with a lovely welcome pack, including local wine and ricotta, and beach toys for our children. The villa is very well equipped and comfortable. The garden is exceptional, absolutely vast, with citrus trees and many places to sit in sun or shade. It was ideal for the children in our group (aged 4-7), with a climbing frame and plenty of hiding places. The pool was a little too chilly to swim in in early April but the children enjoyed dipping their toes in.The town offers a good bakery, supermarkets, fruit and veg shops and fish stalls, as well as restaurants, pizzerias and ice cream all within easy walking distance. The sandy beach is also only about 150m away. It was nice not to have to drive everywhere, but we enjoyed short outings to Sampieri, Marina di Ragusa and Scicli, and a longer trip to beautiful Noto. A great house in a lovely part of Sicily.

Location assolutamente all’altezza delle aspettative. Comoda sia per effettuare visite culturali (Scicli, Noto, Modica, Ragusa, Siracusa, Marzamemi) che per approfittare del mare. Accoglienza superlativa. Abbiamo trascorso una settimana incantevole anche grazie alla cortesia e disponibilità di Melina. Da consigliare!!

Ideale Unterkunft für einen Familienurlaub. Sehr komfortabel, jedes Zimmer hat sein eigenes Bad, die Küche ist groß und gut ausgestattet (Kaffee in allen Variationen, Tee, Gewürze). Alles ist in Laufnähe (Conad, Metzger, Bar, Gemüsegeschäft, Vinothek, Fisch am Hafen). Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Der große Garten lädt zum Verweilen ein. Vom Strand waren wir eher enttäuscht. Schön, dass wir den Pool nutzen konnten.

La villa è deliziosa, tanto accogliente quanto ordinata, pulita, provvista di ogni comfort e naturalmente elegante, con dettagli d'arredo d'epoca ben coniugati con la comodità del moderno. Fuori sei tra le strade familiari del borgo di Donnalucata, di fianco ad un negozietto di frutta, verdura e prodotti freschi locali (come la squisita ricotta calda ) gestito dolcemente da Chiara; oltrepassata la porta di casa sei nel giardino della villa che ti trasporta subito in un'altra dimensione e ti senti subito in vacanza. La nota in più di questa dimora è la sua proprietà Melina che con discreta disponibilità supplisce a qualsivoglia necessità. Ci torneremo sicuramente.

The house is just perfect! Not only it's closely located near the peaceful and beautiful beach of Donnalucata. Inside the domain of la Forma dell'acqua, your find a true oasis of tranquility and beauty. The house is well equipped with all modern comfort, without losing its authenticity! But most of all we loved the garden. The pool is amazing. But also the garden with a nice BBQ and 2nd kitchen brought us lots of pleasure and made us feel at home! We'd love to come back!

Surrounding Area

The house rises approx. 100 m from the large free beach of Donnalucata and from its charming village with its different bars, shops and restaurants. You can reach it by a trail inside the garden, surrounded by lavender bushes and citrus trees. The beach is very long with fine golden sand; the water is shallow, so ideal for children. Just 10 minutes from Donnalucata is the protected nature reserve of River Irminio, ideal for a scenic stroll and to sunbathe in the wild beach of golden sand or swim in its crystal clear sea. Between the Baroque village of Noto and the seaside village of Marzamemi is the famous nature reserve Fauna Oasis of Vendicari, important for a variety of migratory birds like flamingos, herons and storks, which can be seen from the dedicated observation points, that features long beaches and crystal clear sea. In the nearby village of Scicli, UNESCO heritage site, you can visit the rich Baroque artistic-cultural heritage. At sunset, take a stroll along the enchanting streets teeming with restaurants serving local food, old osterie and shops embraced by a magical atmosphere.
