Services
Seven services, on request
Built around your hours rather than ours. Booked before you arrive, and we handle the detail.
All services
Transfer and airport pick-up
Private transport to and from the airport, or anywhere else.
We meet you on arrival and see you off at the end. Catania Fontanarossa airport is 17 km away, about twenty minutes. The service also covers journeys to other places, at times agreed in advance.
Etna and Taormina tours
Private guided days, built around your pace.
Up to the summit craters, the villages on the eastern slope, Taormina and its Greek theatre. The route is set by how far you want to walk and how long you want to be out.
Private driver
A driver at your disposal, by the half day or the full day.
For the days you would rather not drive or look for parking. Booked by the half day or the full day.
Chef at the villa
Dinner cooked and served in the house, to the menu you choose.
We agree the menu before you arrive, allowing for intolerances, allergies and preferences. The chef arrives with the shopping done and leaves the kitchen as they found it.
Breakfast
Breakfast served in the house, at the hour you decide.
Local produce and Sicilian pastries, with no dining-room hours to keep to. Booked for the whole stay or for single mornings.
Laundry and ironing
Collection, washing and ironing during the stay.
Useful on long stays and for anyone travelling light. Collected and returned the same day where possible.
Daily and extra cleaning
Daily tidying on top of the cleaning already included.
Daily tidying comes on top of the cleaning already included in the stay. Extra visits on request too — after a dinner in the garden, for instance.
How they work
Every service is booked on request and shaped around what you need. Write to us before you arrive with what you want, and we deal with the detail: times, suppliers, menus, vehicles.
Some need a few days’ notice — the chef at the villa and the guided tours in particular.
Before you travel
Write a few days ahead with dates, times and numbers. We confirm availability and cost before you arrive, so there is nothing unexpected on the bill.
