Villa Giardino Paradiso True to the name
We had eight family members including small children. The rooms were all comfortable and accommodating. We could walk to restaurants and walk to beautiful beaches. Or spend a day having fun in the pool or hosting a party with a moustache licking meal prepared by Chef Marco. The host for the villa was also first class

A brilliant large group villa in a great location!
We stayed as large family group using 5 bedrooms with one spare. Each room had its own bathroom which was really appreciated. Lovely pool and loads of outside space. We booked the chef for a birthday meal and can highly recommend - wonderful food and great personal service. Benedetto was a great host and helped whenever we needed it. Professional and friendly. Walking distance to beach and cafes of lascari , a short drive to cefalu. We had great weather late September except for 1 rainy day. It was a fabulous holiday. Thank you!

Great time!
We had a great time at the villa . It was all as advertised and all bedrooms had en suite which was great for a large group (12 of us ) We did have a car which was useful for shopping and trips further afield but we also walked to the station for trips to Cefalu and Palermo (amazing food in Palermo!) The trains were on time and very clean and comfortable but there aren’t many of them so you do need to plan your trip well with the timetable . One in our party went horse riding which was a great trip out . We also walked to the local beach (10 mins) which was much quieter than Cefalu. We all had fun in the pool which was lovely to cool down in . The kitchen was very well equipped with absolutely everything you would need . Benedetto replied quickly to messages from the beginning and was always helpful and respectful. All in all we had a really great time and would thoroughly recommend this villa to anyone who would like to visit this lovely area of Sicily.

Lovely Sicilian Getaway
We just returned from a lovely two week Sicilian getaway. The villa is just as described. We enjoyed the home, pool, garden, and bicycles. The villa location is close to 2 excellent restaurants, within walking distance and the beach. Benedetto was so helpful. He arranged for a chef to come to the villa to prepare several delicious dinners. So magical to dine in the garden after a great day of sightseeing in Sicily. We will be booking this amazing property again. Ci vediamo presto !

A very lovely place for the family
Benedetto was an excellent host. We were there while it was very rainy and not having an inside sitting area was a bit of a problem. However the warm outdoor pool was a life saver on cold cloudy days. Easy walk to the beach, the train station and the supermarket.We managed with out a car and did trips to palermo and cefalu. Excellent Sicilian dinner cooked by chef Marco. Extensive outdoor space was a real advantage for us with small kids in our group who loved the swings. Easy walk to two restaurants and the lido on the beach. Picked fresh mulberries, loquats and oranges from the garden. If the weather had been better it would have been perfect but was a bit hard to manage the space in very rainy weather. To be fair we were there during the floods in Italy so everywhere was struggling.

Family holiday
Lovely house for a family gathering. As we visited early in the season we paid for the pool to be heated which was well worth it, we thoroughly enjoyed swimming, playing with the pool toys and sunbathing. Our granddaughter was well provided for with highchair, cot, and garden toys too. A car is needed to get to the local supermarket and to explore the area.

Really. Nice - must have a car to get to Cefalu
We rented this place with my friends - we all really enjoyed hanging out by the pool, bbq‘s and all slept well. You need a car to get to Cefalu, otherwise by bike distance it‘s quite dangerous. The bikes provided from the owner are not fully functionnal. Everything worked fine appart from the dishwasher and we had no Access to any cleaning products in the house so we had to purchase everything.

Great villa for relaxing holiday
Great property for a large group. We used 6 bedrooms (including the pool house) in August which provide lots of space for our group of 12, each bedroom having an en suite is excellent. Pool area recently refurbished with lots of sun loungers and an umbrella for shade (need as so hot !). Lots of outside space to relax in, the large outside eating area by the bbq was fantastic with a big dining table for evening meals, lots of seating outside the kitchen with another table and sofa and chairs. Villa is well located and only a 10 minute walk to the beach which has a nice beach bar, a number of bikes were also available to use if you wanted to go a bit further afield. Benedetto was very friendly and helpful host and ensured that some problems with the air conditioning were fixed as soon as possible, also arranged for Chef Marco to come in and cook for us one evening. Pizza restaurant was 5 minutes walk away, friendly place with good value food. Would happily visit Villa Giardino Paradiso again.

We had a wonderful stay. The property was very comfortable inside, though we spent more time outside! The heated pool is amazing, and the kids also loved the fruit orchard in the garden. The nearby restaurant was great. Benedetto was very helpful. Cefalu is an amazing town with a stunning beach right next to it. There is a supermarket near the house which is convenient. Can't ask for much more really!

Seaside and Cefalu Holiday Magic
The property is BETTER than the pictures show! Lovely home, comfy rooms with attached bathrooms, a small bungalow and the refreshing (heated & clean pool!) as well as bikes and lovely grass yard for kids to play in. 9 Family members enjoyed the comfort and beauty of the property, the closeness to Cefalu (7 minute drive, went in twice a day!) The beach is around the block, with a charming little cafe/bar for food and a beverage while you relax under the umbrellas. The neighborhood restaurant, down the block was delicious! Highly recommend this villa, sit outside and enjoy the beauty of Sicily, get a good nights rest, and walk the historic city of Cefalu, drive across the beautiful countryside on the clean and well paved roads to see the Greek ruins. Lovely Villa, beautiful area, nice & helpful owner! 5 Star!!

Booked for family reunion!
If you're looking for a place for up to 15 people this is a good choice. Good rate. Excellent location you'll need a car, 15 mins. to Cefalu. About an hour from Palermo airport. 2 story, 3 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. Adequate kitchen, plenty of tables outside. Buy bug or mosquito spray my wife got quite a few bites. Market close by. 2 nice Italian restaurants within 1/2 mile. Nice pool. A/c good, wi fi ok. You'll need, to take out re-cycle cans, buy coffee & filters if you use American coffee pot, toilet paper, paper towels. Owner is very respectful and responsible and will return any emailed questions to him. Would recommend. Ciao!

Wonderful place, excellent stay for family
Perfect property for our stay with the now grown-up kids and partners. The villa was perfect for the 8 of us, each bedroom being spacious with its own en-suite, and excellent kitchen, outside sitting, washing, pool and garden facilities. Location is one of the best we came across on the north side of the island, with a huge sandy beach and restaurant just a short walk (or even shorter bike ride) away. Mountain backdrop was stunning and the lovely Cefalu town only an easy10 minute drive away in the car. Property was quiet with a beautiful garden including many orange and fig trees. Benedetto was very helpful and a good friendly host. we all loved the place. Would certainly return.

Perfect for large group
All bedrooms had en suite bathrooms , large pool and outdoor places to eat Would give a 5 star but the shower doors in the bathrooms should be replaced. The bi folding doors are dirty and make the showers very small. Our shower did not drain well so we stood in water when taking a shower. 2. WiFi is not strong enough. Need repeaters in each room. Only works in the kitchen and not very well. I think if these 2 items were addressed, it would be a 5 star place

Trip in June2019
We were very pleased with this property. The villa was huge, 6 bedrooms and a bathroom in each room. The actual house has 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and a kitchen. There is also a separate house, by the pool with a bedroom and bathroom. This was a plus for us as my brother stayed in the pool house and enjoyed his privacy away from all the chaos of our children. During the summer, if all the bedrooms are used there is no living room in the actual house. Rather the living room is outside. At first we were concerned about this as we had 4 children who wanted a space of their own, but we quickly learned that we spent most of our time outside since the weather was so beautiful. The kitchen was large with a large table. Outside there were 2 additional seating areas and a outdoor living room space. WE enjoyed the beautiful pool, with lounge chairs and as large umbrella. The kids enjoyed the backyard with swing set and large lawn to play soccer. The house has a washer machine and clothes lines for drying items. The beach was a 3 minute drive or a 10 minute easy walk. The beach had plenty of free parking. The beach is sandy, while there are rocks closer to the water so water shoes are recommended. The water was warm and calm and the children could play in the water for several feet before it became deep. The beach was never crowded. The home did come equipped with beach towels, umbrellas, sand toys and pool toys. The home also came with sheets and bath towels. Each room has air conditioning as well. The owner was friendly and helped us if problems arised. The home had a large outdoor table that seated over 20 people. We were able to have family over and enjoy dinners together. We were a family of 11, which included 4 children ages 5 to 11. The home accommodated all of us comfortably . Lascari is about a 15 minute easy drive to Cefalu, which we frequented often. We never took the train, it did not seem to be running often while we were there. There were several restaurants we visited and a large grocery store 5 minutes away. The food was delicious. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to large groups.

Paradiso in name and fact!
A family party of 10 covering all ages has just enjoyed a wonderful week at this Villa. Benedetto was the "Host with the Most", having been extremely helpful beforehand with airport pickups and advice about hiring cars. Cars are not essential as travel, by train is so easy - Cefalu in 7 minutes and Palermo in a very quick time - and no parking worries at the other end. The Villa has a wonderful setting with hills all around, the pool was very well used by the children - of all ages - and the local pizzeria - a 2 minute walk away - was a godsend - wonderful service from a family run business. We really did enjoy our stay and it was a treat to return each evening to the Villa, and enjoy the pool, pick fresh fruit from the garden, and try and decide what to have for supper at the pizzeria. There was a very well stocked local supermarket a short bike ride away which provided all you could need for a week's stay. Benedetto was most helpful with information as to any local event or attraction which might be of interest. We just did not have time to fit it all in - so another visit is required to pick up many loose ends. The Villa was well provided for with seating all over the place to make the most use of the sun, or shade depending what you needed. The play area for children allowed for much running around in safety. The whole area was wonderfully peaceful and you felt quite safe walking to the local beach - the bar was not yet ready for the season when we were there but looked as if it would provide a good day's sunbathing. The whole experience of Sicily was wonderful - however, as we so often find it is the people who make it even more so - from Kristina returning a lost teddy from the taxi to the Host at the pizzeria remembering everyone's drink order on our return visit, and Benedetto always on hand at the end of a phone for information and advice - a truly wonderful week.

Great property and highly recommend
We just finished a family celebration with 10 adults and could not have been happier. The house has everything you need from bikes to beach umbrellas. Excellent location with walking to 3 excellent local restaurants and 10 minute drive to Cefalu which has all you could ask for. Bennedetto was a great host and even helped drive us to store to stock up for the week. We celebrated our mother’s 80 birthday with a private chef Marco who prepared a spectacular dinner. The property has a great pool to just hang out in for the day and relax. We definitely can’t wait to return. Thanks Bennedetto for everything.

Privacy, Beach, and Pool for a Large Group
This is a great property for large groups, up to 16, visiting Sicily. The six bedrooms have private bathrooms, refrigerator, and air-conditioning and the kitchen has all the needed amenities. Our family group of 14 ate most of our meals in the outdoor patio equipped with a large wooden table, refrigerator, BBQ, sink, and work space. The Lascari area has two nearby grocery stores and for those wishing to go out to eat there are two nearby restaurants. The pool is an added benefit if you do not wish to take a short walk to the public beach or Lido. The owner Benedetto is available to help you make plans and responds rapidly to your concerns. The location is great if you wish to explore Sicily by train or car and has easy access to a train station and major roadways. Be sure sure to walk in the large fruit orchard and pick some figs, oranges, lemons, fica India, peaches, and plums. Would definitely use this location again for a large group. Stayed June 2018.

Thanks to Benedetto he is a wonderful host , the villa is so well equipped it has everything you need . We enjoyed the pool and outdoor areas everyday -the grounds are beautiful and well kept . The beach is very close by and we walked to the Pizzeria/restaurant quite a few evenings . The supermarket is a bike ride / drive away we did not hire a car but used the train from Lascari (a 10 minute Walk). Good taxi service is also available from Cefalu We all enjoyed our week and felt very relaxed .

Spacious, well equipped villa
I would highly recommend staying at villa Giardino Paradiso. We were a group of 15 people staying there and even with that number of people, it still felt spacious. There are so many different areas on the grounds to relax in and enjoy, and even when we sat in the kitchen in the evening, there was space for us all. It was great having both a full kitchen and an outdoor BBQ area to all cook together in also. As well as the BBQ area, the bicycles were a great addition to the amenities. The villa is situated in a peaceful village and while the nearest supermarket is in walking distance, the bikes made it extra easy to get shopping back and forth without relying on taxis (we didn't hire a car whilst there). The grounds are full of fruit trees with very delicious fruit on them! Benedetto was a wonderful host - he helped us with our transport to and from the airport, was always at the end of the phone when we had a question, and was very accommodating in letting us check in early and out late to suit our travel times. All of us had a great time staying here and would be happy to return.

A great sized and well equipped villa in a lovely village
it was great for a group of 15, lots of crockery etc. Bathroom each. Restaurant 500m away which was lovely, fruits in the garden, outside area perfect for bbqs, beach a walk away which isn't too busy and has bar. Cefalu easy to get to on train which was 20 mins walk away, cefalu itself is really pretty. Shame about supermarket being further away due to roadworks but Benedetto was super helpful getting us there and back. The pool are was great for children- it can be gated off, pool is deep in the middle. The villa had lots of mosquito supplies which came in handy and a washing machine too. Benedetto was really helpful and on hand for everything. A fantastic village and fantastic villa.

Very nice!!
The property is nice and spacious; including an orchard and fruit trees with fresh fruits to pick if you're lucky 👍. There are 4 areas outside to chill (2x long tables - one in the morning sun & 1 in the shade; a corner with lounge sofa's outside and off course the poolside beds); that also helps for the spacious & relaxed feel to it. The interior consists of a lot of old/antique furniture which gives it a nice ambiance. And I heard that they'll redo the kitchen this winter. The area feels very safe: the gate in front of the house closes automatically and the house is located in a quite part in the suburbs of the village Lascari. It's a 15 min car drive or 7 mins train drive to Cefalu. Benedetto is super nice; he also helped us with tips for a nice beach nearby and arranged taxi's for some friends that were leaving early. Even one pick-up at 4 am! Also the cleaning ladies were very nice, open & talkative. So overall: nice property; nice people!

8/10 Good

Perfekt ställe för social samvaro för det stora sällskapet
Liten ort men perfekt hus för det stora sällskapet. Lugn och fin strand, två restauranger och väldigt lugnt område, enkelt att åka tåg till Cefalu och/eller Palermo.
