Villa Paola is a lovely property, set high above Donnalucata with a view down to the sea. The veranda is well shaded with good seating for eating outside. There is a bbq and a good size kitchen. The bedrooms are spacious and bathrooms are modern. The aircon works well, essential for Sicilyâs hot weather! Renzo, the local manager, is great, he is super helpful and came to clean the pool and the bbq as well as taking away rubbish and buying a new umbrella for the poolside. One of our party needed a dentist and Renzo sorted an appointment for her the same day. The Villa does need some attention, the decking round the pool is getting badly worn and I would not recommend a stay with young children until this is improved. Also the photos show 4 sunbeds, there were only 2 which was disappointing. Some of the kitchen equipment needs replacing, there was only one large useable saucepan, nothing small enough to boil an egg! And a toaster would be useful. Unfortunately a couple of the freezer drawers were broken, probably a rather heavy handed previous guest, a hazard of renting. Small improvements which would make this an even better property.
