Il Giardino degli Dei - Luxury villa in Agrigento with a large pool and garden

Il Giardino degli Dei is a stylish luxury villa with a large private pool, near both the delightful town of Agrigento and the Valley of the Temples, the large sacred area with Greek temples in the Doric style, considered one of the most suggestive archaeological sites in Sicily and thus included on the World Heritage List. The villa is also only 600 metres from the endless sandy beaches of San Leone, the seaside resort of Agrigento.
Set in an enviably peaceful setting, il Giardino degli Dei is an elegantly finished villa with large windows and natural stone and wood floors. This two-floor villa, surrounded by a beautiful garden with lots of carob, palm and olives trees, actually consists of two fully independent villas. One of the villas is occupied by the host family sharing the swimming pool and the solarium area with the one reserved for the guests. The villa for the guests consists in two spacious double bedrooms with a private bathroom with shower, a living room with a fully equipped kitchenette. A third double bedroom is available on request. All the rooms have air conditioning. Outside the villa there is a splendid swimming pool and a solarium area.Guests arriving to our villa will find a well-stocked pantry and fridge for their breakfast.

Absolutely Incredible
This property may as well be a palace. There were three of us renting this property in early November. We ended up staying and what we expect is the guest quarters which is the basement of the home. Two full bedrooms and bathrooms. A nicely appointed small kitchen and a decent living area. We had full run of the immaculate grounds which I cannot say enough about. Just a wildly beautiful and well kept property. The pool looks absolutely delightful, though. It was relatively cool out while we were visiting so we did not get a chance to use it. The upper house looks beautiful but cannot say much about it since we didn't have access. Would consider renting the entire property for a friend's retreat. I would expect the entire property would sleep 8 to 12 people, but I'm not sure what the owners make available. Jaana, our host, was gracious and helpful and very responsive. Would absolutely rent this place again in a heartbeat. Absolutely the most incredible property we've rented on VRBO ever. EVER.

Fabulous property!
Gorgeous home, gorgeous landscaping on a private lot, well located. Two notes: (1) the home is located after a 90 degree bend in the road (we thought it was a different street/intersection) and (2) the clothes washer had developed that mildew issue (for remedying which I recommend both cleaning the rubber gasket seal and using a dose of washing machine cleaner) and unfortunately the odor permeated the premises. A quick cleaning should remedy it and return this property to its absolutely splendid natural state!

Beautiful grounds, lovely unit and helpful hostess.
This was an ideal place to stay to visit ancient sites and a lovely coastline. Jaana our hostess was very helpful with recommendations. The grounds are beautiful and the photos do not do them justice. We loved our stay.

Lovely place to stay if you are traveling to see the Valley of the Temples. Only 10-15 minute drive. Very welcoming host couple who live on the first floor; the guest suite is below what is pictured. Absolutely spotless guest suite with all amenities, plus gorgeous pool and gardens. Owners maintain low profile and we enjoyed having the pool to ourselves. We found food at local grocery and grilled out the first night. Second night, we had dinner in San Leone; much easier than trying to park in Agrigento. Owner provides breakfast but you will need to bring something if you are craving fresh food. Only downside is that the location is obscure and we needed help from the host to find it. Highly recommended unless you need complete privacy.

The home page picture tells it all.
Beautiful grounds, a VERY good host in Nicolas, and wonderful interior makes for a great stay. Location was central to both San Leone (good restaurants-3 min drive), Valley of the Temples (need I say anything!- 8 min drive) and the city of Agrigento (old part of city for food, shopping and walking- 12 min drive). Easy 5 star property.

Incredible and dramatic villa
I am not even sure how it is possible that such an amazing place is available. The grounds are amazing. The pool is about as beautiful as any I have seen. The living area is modern, spacious, and comfortable. Conveniently located for the Vaaley of Temples. Just amazing.

It’s the garden of Eden
Fabulous place. The bedrooms, the bathrooms and the entire place very spacious, immaculate and refined. Lots of extras, Nothing was missing. The pool and the ground definitely designed by a great artist (Toto’?). Palm trees , hydrangeas, lemon and secular olive trees and all kind of flowering bushes. The pool very hard to describe: just amazing. Location: five minutes from a free beach. Fifteen minutes from Agrigento and the Valley of the Temples. Doesn’t get any better. The owner, Toto’, only appeared when we needed him. We had the place all to ourselves. Thank you Toto’ for this beautiful experience and thank you Isaac for guiding us thru the streets of Agrigento and picking us up when we were lost. One last thing: we arrived late in the afternoon tired and hungry. We opened the refrigerator and to our delight there were Platters of cheese and cold cuts. And a chilled Brut. Again, thank you, thank you. We’ll be back.

This property is outstanding. The grounds are meticulously maintained. The pool is a special place!
We loved the apartment. We were Welcomed with our great host Nicolas and his parents who live on site. All are Very friendly and Very helpful with places to eat and things to do. The apartment and outdoor seating areas allow for reading and relaxation and dining in or outdoors. It is totally equipped! The two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms were so comfortable. Everything to see and do in San Leone and Agrigento is close by. Overall, this apartment is a must. We stayed 4 days and did NOT want to leave!!!

The hosts ( Jaana and nicolas) helped us a lot by giving us many tips for restaurants, beaches and so much more. We strongly recommend this house.
