Villa Allegra - Holiday home at Catania (Vaccarizzo)

Holidays at nature paradise "Oasi del Simeto"

Where the Simeto river flows into the Ionian Sea on the east coast of Sicily lies nature reserve "Oasi del Simeto" with its fascinating flora and fauna. The plain of the Simeto River is dominated by 'omnipresent' Mount Etna, Europe’s highest active volcano. At the foot of Mount Etna lies the lively coastal town of Catania.

About 13 km south of Catania, in the protected area of the nature reserve, only 400 m from and within easy walking distance of the wide sandy dune beach Villa Allegra lies within a private park with villas and holiday accommodations, which is known to be a preferred residential area.

Vacationing at Villa Allegra

The south-facing house is laid out for 4 persons, more specifically for 2 adults and 2 children. There are two bedrooms, one with double bed and one with twin beds, the latter suitable and intended for children.

The living area is furnished with, amongst others, a sofa, which might be used as a sleeping facility for a 5th person (only a 3rd child!), and TV (SAT-TV). In the kitchen area of the villa you find 4-burner gas stove, oven and refrigerator with freezer compartment at your disposal. The combined kitchen-living-dining room opens onto the roofed south-facing terrace.

The bathroom is equipped with shower/WC/bidet, hair dryer and towels.

Furnishing of Villa Allegra also includes WiFi, washing machine, fly screens and children’s bed. Air conditioning with heating system (extra charge for use) is found both in the living room and in the double bedroom. At the holiday home there are two bicycles which you can feel free to use.

Outdoor area of Villa Allegra

From the roofed, south-facing terrace with adjoining arbor a spiral staircase runs up to the sunny roof terrace. The roofed terrace on the north side of the house might be the perfect place if you prefer a bit of shade in between or on particularly hot days. That is where you also find a grill* (see possbile extra charge below) and an outdoor shower at your disposal. 

The small, beautifully laid out garden is home to a great variety of Mediterranean plants as well as to classic "arance rosse", Sicilian blood oranges, and sweet tangerines.

There are two parking spaces on the fenced property. We strongly recommend renting a car, just to make sure you can get around and do your daily shopping, for example. Unfortunately, bus connections are far from regular and, in general, cannot be relied on.

Note for people with allergies: CATS live on the property and around the house.

Should you need or wish for any help or advice, do not hesitate to ask family Allegra. They are glad to support you in any way to make sure you enjoy your holidays.

Surroundings, shopping and excursions

In the holiday home area and about 500 m from Villa Allegra, there is one so-called minimarket where, from April to mid September, you can do your daily shopping of bread, meat, cheese, fruit and vegetables, but where you can also buy cleaning agents and the like. For bigger shopping as well as shopping during low season stop at shopping center "Porte di Catania" or "Centro Sicilia". There are also some smaller supermarkets which are easily found on Google Maps.

Medical assistance service is available not quite 10 km off in Viale Kennedy.

Bars open during summer and restaurants open year-round are located nearby, right at the seaside, for example, and to name only a few, Costa del Sole, Ciao Darwin and Sicily Country House. Other bars and restaurants open year-round are found outside the holiday park, when driving towards Catania or Brucoli. 

The Baroque town of Catania with its cathedral, amphitheater and fish market is, of course, absolutely worth a closer look. The towns of Taormina, Syracuse and Acireale are not too far off and also interesting and worthwhile destinations for excursions.

The core zone of nature reserve Oasi del Simeto is only 1 km from Villa Allegra. An extensive network of trails running through this nature paradise gives you the chance to admire the rich avifauna, which includes herons, herring gulls, bee-eaters and purple swamp hens. At Oasi del Simeto not only hikers, riders and divers too get their money’s worth. Many wonderful nature reserves are found both to the north and to the south from where Villa Allegra is located.

Das Meer und die Vulkane sind für uns die Highlights der Insel. Unser Ferienhaus war einfach, aber sauber eingerichtet. Es hat NICHTS gefehlt. Außerdem sind wir sehr nett empfangen worden. Sogar der Kühlschrank war komplett gefüllt! Zum Meer hatten wir nur ca. 400m Weg. Hierfür war auch ALLES schon vorhanden. Man fühlte sich wirklich willkommen. Ein besonderes Erlebnis war für uns die Fahrt zur Insel Stromboli bei Nacht. Jederzeit wieder!

Katrin S., Klipphausen, September 2017

Die Villa Allegra befindet sich in einer tollen Lage. Besonders gut gefallen haben uns die tägliche Sicht auf den Ätna, der Sandstrand, die ländliche Umgebung und dass man trotzdem innerhalb von 15 Minuten in einer Großstadt mit allen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten ist. Sie ist kein steriles Ferienhaus, sondern ausgestattet wie ein bewohntes Haus. Super war auch die Versorgung durch Frau Allegra. Wir möchten auf jeden Fall noch einmal einen Urlaub hier verbringen - empfehlenswert!

Andreas D., Eschbronn, Juni 2017

Unser Sizilien-Urlaub war super! Was die Gegend so besonders macht, ist die Kombination aus Kultur, Natur (Ätna-Region) und Strand. An unserem Ferienhaus fanden wir vor allem die Terrasse mit Grillecke und die Außendusche toll. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Christian M., Paderborn, Mai 2017

Absolut keine Beanstandung gibt es von unserer Seite. Den Urlaub genossen wir in vollen Zügen. Was wir besonders nett fanden war der gefüllte Kühlschrank bei unserer Anreise, die drei verschiedenen Außensitzplätze am Ferienhaus, die ruhige Lage, der saubere Strand und die freundlichen Vermieter. Begeistert waren wir zudem von den leeren Badestränden in der Nebensaison, den freundlichen Begegnungen mit den Einheimischen und den wunderschönen Barockstädten. Unsere Tipps: Catania - Fisch- und Gemüsemarkt, Besuch der Schlucht Cava Grande in der Nähe von Noto mit Baden - möglichst einen ganzen Tag einplanen, Ätna mit Bergführer bis zum Hauptkrater.

Rainer K., Dippoldiswalde, Mai 2016

Die Insel, die Landschaft, die kulinarische Vielseitigkeit und die Unterkunft - einfach super! Die Vermieterin hat uns auch eine sehr üppige Erstversorgung in den Kühlschrank gestellt! Hier ist eine gute Erholung garantiert!
