Loved the views, authentic and comfortable cottage, lovely experience of Sicilian village life. May be difficult to access for those with mobility issues. Wifi would not connect. Single lane access and street parking not suitable for a large vehicle. Also make sure to access groceries before arrival as there was no grocery store in Savoca and breakfast was not supplied as stated.

Alessio met us in Savoca and took us on a short journey to Romissa where Villa Sarino is situated. The views are tremendous: one looking down towards the sea and the other across to Savoca with its church and museum on the hill side. Villa Sarino is a family home which was renovated by Alessio and his father. The kitchen, dining and sitting area is open plan with a bathroom and bedroom to one side. The area is larger in reality than the photos show and what makes this a comfortable, relaxing area is the arty décor throughout. Outside is an ample patio area where one can sit and relax enjoying the view surrounded by interesting potted plants. We would highly recommend Villa Sarino for a short stay or longer. The village has seen better days with most of the properties now derelict but this adds to the ambience of the place and those who do reside there are friendly and welcoming including the goats and donkeys! This is the place to go to unwind and to soak in the atmosphere of the true Sicily!
