For groups of 8/9 people, who will choose to rent only the central building, we will be happy to offer a 10% discount. The property is immersed in the greenery of a large garden of about 3500 square meters exclusively available to our guests, where over the years, lemon, orange, pine, oleander, jasmine, pomelia, lavender and many colorful flowers have grown. In the large outdoor spaces alternate gazebos, relaxation corners, a play area for children, the pond with water lilies, the bbq corner, a laundry room, a bathroom with outdoor shower and the magnificent swimming pool with hydromassage. The interiors are tastefully furnished in traditional Sicilian style and offer a composition that is perfectly suited to a family holiday or with friends at any time of the year, ensuring privacy and comfort for each person. Villa The Shape of Water is composed of a main body and 2 romantic dependances. The main structure is on three levels. On the ground floor, entering Via Regina Margherita, the cozy living area, a large kitchen, a double bedroom with private bathroom and a second living room that overlooks a veranda and the garden. On the first floor there is a double bedroom with private bathroom, a second double bedroom with a terrace and a bathroom with jacuzzi. From the latter room you enter the second floor, where there is the double room, perhaps more romantic, with the roof made of reeds and plaster and a window on the park. Next to the main body, there are the two independent annexes, which house two further double bedrooms with private bathroom and fridge. Do not forget the second kitchen in the garden, very appreciated in the summer months.

We had a lovely stay in a beautiful house with rooms and space both indoor and outdoor for a 3 generation familiy of 15 persons age 1 to 67! The house and garden were beautifully decorated, all rooms had well functioning AC. The surroundings with a nice clean beach, supermarket and restaurants were perfect, and we did not need a car. The host were most friendly, professional, helpful and service minded. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a large and beautiful property in Italy/Sicilia for vacation! ##### Elisabeth E. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helena E. Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic! We were an extended family of 8 adults and 4 kids at age 1 to 74 that had a fantastic holiday in the villa. The layout of the house with 5 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and the additional room on the top floor worked perfect for us. The pool and the pool area was the perfect hang out place and the kids enjoyed not only the pool, as did all of the adults, but also the play area in the garden. The two kitchens, one on the ground floor with access from the garden area, offered great flexibility. We cooked a lot in house and enjoyed al fresco dining at the large table in the garden area. Grocery stores (supermarkets, butcher, vegetable, and wine shops) are literally at the door step to the Villa as are many other shops and restaurants. A great bonus was also the fact that the beach was so close; we alternated between the pool and the beach several times per day. You need a car to get here but not once you reach the Villa. Last but not least, the hospitality and attentiveness of Melina and Guglielmo were exceptional, they do care about their guests in a way that we've not experienced before. Thank you so much! We have rented many fantastic houses at different locations in Italy but this is undoubtedly one of the top ones! ##### Helena E. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer B.

The Villa had everything you could want in fantastic surroundings - large, peaceful garden, good size pool, play area and lots of shady seating areas. It is located close to food shops, including a very good butcher and wine shop and is a very short walk to the beach. Melina was extremely helpful with all our needs. We used the chef services on two nights which worked very well for us. Can’t recommend it highly enough. ##### John P. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### andrew w.

We were two families with small children reuniting after many years apart. The house was well equipped, clean and very comfortable. The property was stunning! The pictures do not do it justice. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The gardens are beautiful. There are so many little areas to sit and take it all in. The community around the home was very welcoming. The best little cafe was out the back gate and the butcher across the street was amazing. And of course our hosts were helpful and so kind. I hope we can come back here again someday. ##### Emily H.

Couple of nice restaurants in short walking distance and also the beach is very close. We spent most of our time in the pool & in the shadows due to very hot weather. This was our first time in Sicily and have to say that logistically Donnalucata was not the best place to explore the island, as the roads near to town were in poor shape. Meaning that it was not feasible to do any day trips to touristic attractions, but of course the hot weather was also one reason for this. ##### Anu L.

Melina and her husband were superb hosts, and we can't say enough about this place. We were a large family across three generations (ages 6 to 76); everyone had a blast. The grandparents stayed in the extra two suites that are a separate building while the younger generations had their run of the larger house. We grilled, we swam in the pool, we took in the garden, we walked to the beach and various restaurants. This is a very special place, with various shops within 2-3 blocks (a gelato shop, a wine store with local wine, a butcher shop, a grocer, various restaurants). Day trips included Scicli, Caltagirone, and Ragusa, all recommended (Noto too). You'll want a car to get here but then you can park it and have everything you need within walking distance, among the most beautiful surroundings and fixtures, with the dearest and highly responsive hosts nearby. This might just be the best rental I've enter encountered. ##### Sathya G. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raoul Alain N.

Die Villa ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, der Garten ist ein Traum und die Nähe zum Meer, aber auch zu Läden, Restaurants machte alles sehr gemütlich und relaxed. Wir wurden von Melina und Guglielmo bestens betreut, insbesondere als eine von uns Erwachsenen krank wurde, einen Arzt brauchte und früher abreisen musste.

Das Haus ist perfekt für große Familien, auch mit kleinen Kindern mit denen man am Pool selbstverständlich aufpassen muss. Es gibt sogar einen kleinen Spielplatz im Garten. Herzlichen Dank dass wir dieses besondere Haus mieten durften. Karin und Jörg und Familie ##### Karin S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ulrika B.

Lovely big rooms and the garden is huge! The beach is close and we also loved the fact that the shops for food and wine was literally on your doorstep. A few good restaurants also within 3-5 minutes walk. The host is so helpful with every question you might have. We were a big family of 12 with small children and an age range up to 70. The kids did love the pool! We can all highly recomend this place! ##### Ulrika B. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marielle K.

As listed, the garden is very large and provides great privacy and shade. The locals were very helpful as we muddled along with an app to help our Italian. The coffee shop (opposite back gate) and local wine shop were particular highlights. We had a mix of days out and staying by the pool. The pool was spotless as was the rest of the Villa. The Blue Moon was incredible and we loved walking along the seafront for an evening gelato. Melina was very responsive and there to welcome us when we arrived. There are no pictures of the annexe bedrooms online but they are beautiful and felt safe for teenagers to sleep in. The aircon in all the rooms proved very necessary in August. We had a fantastic holiday and would definitely recommend. ##### Helen G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda M.

This house is decorated in a beautiful style with antique style furniture - everywhere you look there is something else to see. Even after a week we did not take it all in! We were 3 families totalling 10 from age 16 to 72 and there is lots of space to be together or find a quiet spot on your own. 2 minute walk to beach - the sea is so warm! 2 min walk to a supermarket (there is another about 7 mins away). Next to a wine shop! Pharmacy and restaurants all in easy walking distance. The hosts are so very welcoming and very helpful with anything that you need - they are such a lovely couple. This place is booked up in advance and once you have been it’s easy to see why. Just wonderful - 5 stars! ##### Amanda M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ernst S.

The house is outstanding like a green oasis in middle of the city. Only few meters to the beach - fantastic! ##### Ernst S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christoph M.

It was perfectly clean and very well equipt with everything we could want for our holiday. The bed linen and towels were good quality and plentiful. Pool towels were also provided. Each bathroom had its own proper hairdryer, so no need to bring your own.Our 2 grown up children stayed in the separate rooms within the grounds, my husband and I and our youngest child stayed in the main house. This meant we were all together,but not on top of each other. There are some beautiful pieces of furniture, ornaments and antique headboards on the beds. We used the air conditioning diligently and did not go over our 350 KWH allowance for the week. The grounds are wonderful, with various areas to sit and relax in the shade. We picked lemons from the trees to cook with! The pool was lovely and clean and serviced every other day by a lady who crept in and out early in the morning. We bought wine by the bottle from the wine shop next door that dispensed decent wine from barrels into bottles. We bought our vegetables from the green grocers and fish from the harbour, where it had just been brought ashore. The small supermarket had everything else we needed. The beach had soft fine sand and was only crowded at the weekend when we were there. There were restaurants all within walking distance of the villa. Sandy and Melina were there to check us in and out and sent us information of local places to visit. We had a wonderful time at the villa and feel able to genuinely recommend it for a wonderful holiday. ##### robert h. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019
