Lovely villa overlooking the sea in a quiet area with a very large beautiful private exotic garden.
My wife and I stayed in Villa Calamancina from 8 -19 September 2017 with 2 of our grown up children and girlfriend. We all loved staying at the villa surrounded by unusual arid desert type vegetation. The cacti were amazing. Something we are not used to coming from Cambridge. It was a 15-20 minute walk to the main beach and town centre, but it was a very quiet and interesting walk. We donât normally like big busy beaches but soon changed our mind after swimming in the crystal clear water with the dramatic mountainous backdrop. There was plenty to do for all family members. We also discovered a small pebbly beach in a cove a 20 minute walk in the other direction on our 3rd last day. The cove was teeming with fish of all sizes which could be easily viewed in the clear water with goggles . We visited the beach 3 days in a row. Very quiet. Beach called Cala Mancini.
We particularly loved ; sitting on the villa terrace , looking at the fantastic landscape and the seaâŠthere was always a sea breeze to fend the heat away; watching a flock of fabulously colourful bee eater birds hunting daily on the rocky hill behind the villa; using the outside shower under the stars which was a surprising pleasure ; the Zingarro Nature Reserve and its amazing beaches, which is very special place;... we walked to Scopello and back (very tiring but worth it); promenading with the Italian holidaymakers on warm evenings in San Vito; watching the beautiful sunset unimpeded over the sea; and eating at Ristorante Profumi Di Cous Cous.
Some other minor comments. We first arrived after midnight. Providing some basics such as soap, milk ( for a cup of tea), and washing up liquid would have been nice, although 2 bottles of water were left in the fridge. Also a little more local information such as where the supermarkets/bakeries are, restaurant suggestions, and what the local parking arrangements are would have helped us in the beginning.
In summary we loved the villa and it's location and enjoyed meeting owners Anna and Osvaldo who were very helpful throughout the villa booking process and whilst we were there. This was our 2nd stay at Villa Calamancina and I'm sure we will return again!
