What guests say

Reviews consistently praise the warm hospitality of the hosts, Pina and Franco, who make guests feel welcome and offer helpful local tips. The villa enjoys a convenient location close to beautiful beaches and historic towns like Noto, and is surrounded by a lush, well-kept garden. The homemade breakfast, especially the jams and local products, is a highlight for many guests. Cleanliness and tranquility are also highly rated. Some rooms may be less comfortable, but overall guest experiences are very positive. A car is recommended for exploring the area easily.

The managers Pina and Franco are special people. Courtesy, availability, and friendliness are at home at Villa Ibiscus. The Villa is surrounded by a beautiful and large flower garden just a few meters from the splendid sea. The location is very convenient to reach Noto, Siracusa, and Ragusa.

We stayed at Villa Ibiscus, in a great location to visit the entire Val di Noto. The apartment assigned to us was very nice, and the owners Franco and Pina are extremely kind and helpful, we didn't miss anything at all. Highly recommended.

A beautiful weekend as guests of this very kind couple. Hospitality respected and in line with the standards of generous Sicilians. I highly recommend Villa Ibiscus, for the location and cleanliness, but above all for the human experience of meeting genuine, helpful, and friendly people.

If you are planning to visit the eastern coast of Sicily, I recommend staying at Villa Ibiscus, located in a strategic position to visit the most beautiful beaches of the southeastern coast, Siracusa, Noto, and other important destinations. The apartment was clean and in good condition, but what surely stands out at Villa Ibiscus is the hospitality of Mr. Iacono and Mrs. Pina in particular, who with her warmth and kindness truly made us feel at home. The breakfast is excellent and plentiful, served on a beautiful terrace surrounded by greenery. I can still smell and taste the jams prepared by the lady spread on bread and fresh ricotta. Among all the places I have been to, this is the one I liked the most.

The dependence, where we stayed, was not very comfortable, with limited space and an old-fashioned bathroom. Perhaps the rooms on the first floor are better.\n\nOverall, the structure is pleasant, with its garden full of many exotic plants, of which the owner is proud. She is very friendly and cordial, as well as good at preparing a great breakfast.\n\nThe location is very advantageous as it allows you to reach the beaches at the end of each of the 9 crossroads of the main road. They are beautiful beaches; I particularly recommend no. 9 where there is also a simple tavola calda where they prepare tasty food with local products. Disappointing instead is the most famous beach of Calamosche, a quarter of an hour away, with the shore completely covered in algae.

A stay at Villa Ibiscus is highly recommended because the property is very well-kept and loved, extremely clean and welcoming, located in a garden with many Ibiscus and more, a stone's throw from a fabulous sea and close to some of the most beautiful cities in Sicily.\n\nBut our vacation was also wonderful thanks to the exquisite hospitality of Pina and Franco, available to satisfy or resolve every little detail and to provide the right advice on how and where to move in the area. Their warm welcome, combined with pleasant and interesting conversations and extraordinary breakfasts, was truly unforgettable.

The splendid location of Villa Ibiscus, where I recently stayed with my wife, located in the immediate vicinity of the unspoiled and enchanting Vendicari reserve, a stone's throw from jewels of Sicilian culture like Noto and Marzamemi, offers the visitor, a nature lover, an oasis of serene tranquility.\n\nImmersed in a lush garden, a riot of scents and colors, the structure has small apartments and rooms, furnished with refined good taste, equipped with all the comforts, some of which open onto delightful terraces, with a splendid view of the garden.\n\nThe welcome offered by the managers, Mr. and Mrs. Pina and Franco Iacono, is of the highest level: kindness, courtesy, human and personal availability are combined with a serious, attentive and rigorous professionalism. The jams and local products, such as the dried cherry tomato jam to be enjoyed with ricotta, prepared by Mrs. Iacono's own hands, are delicacies not to be missed. We intentionally left many places to visit aside, to have the opportunity to return.

The province of Syracuse is wonderful and the stay at 'Villa Ibiscus' owned by Mr. Pina and Mr. Franco was equally pleasant. In the immediate vicinity, there are beautiful beaches and with the very appropriate advice of Mrs. Pina, we visited them all; Mr. Franco was also generous with advice and suggestions that we followed profitably. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! See you soon.

Excellent welcome, beautiful people, always available, very kind and attentive to our every need, excellent service. More than a B&B, it is an oasis of serenity and the center of our vacation. Mrs. Pina's jams are dreamy, never eaten so delicious. Franco and Pina's advice is very helpful, thanks to them, we dined in excellent restaurants and visited wonderful beaches and places. The villa is immersed in a wonderful botanical garden cared for with so much love. Unforgettable, we will return because we left our hearts there. Enza and Stefano.

Good morning, my husband and I have recently returned from the beautiful Sicily, a region that we love particularly for the magnificent combination of sea and culture.\n\nDuring this holiday period, we chose to stay at the "B&B Villa Ibiscus". We felt very comfortable, the owners are truly two exquisite and hospitable people, it seemed like being with family.\n\nMrs. Pina's breakfast was varied and well-stocked, every morning the inevitable warm croissant was on our table with orange and tangerine jams strictly organic and homemade by her.\n\nWe also enjoyed tasting the olives and the delicious ricotta cheese.\n\nThe structure is very beautiful, clean, furnished with care and taste.\n\nInside the Villa there is also a large private garden, full of flowers and green plants where you can also park comfortably.\n\nThere are also sun loungers and umbrellas available to go to the fantastic San Lorenzo beach, which is not far from the house.\n\nWe thank again the Mr. and Mrs. Iacono for their cordial hospitality, we will definitely return.\n\nA hug Carla and Paolo.

Going to the sea and on vacation in your own villa with two brothers (or parents) waiting for you and happy if you are happy and satisfied. They are Franco and Pina Iacono who, with loving discretion, make you fully enjoy the splendor of the sea, the beauties of the place (only Noto deserves a separate vacation), the delicious food, in their (and immediately "your" villa) immersed in the green.

In two couples with a child we found good hospitality and a structure as described. We chose an option for only accommodation, but the managers are always ready to meet our every need, very kind. The vacation in the surrounding area does not offer the shops of the town, you still need to have a means of transport, but instead you can go to the beach on foot, or there is a nearby village for newspapers or small items. I thank you again for the hospitality.
