Ferienhaus Trecubi in Sizilien, Avola / IT – Italy

Holiday home Trecubi

Trecubi – a holiday home situated near the town of Noto in the sou­theast of Sicily – offers magni­ficent views over the region’s hilly land­scape, all the way to the sea five kilo­metres away. It rises out of a ter­raced slope and merges har­mo­niously with its sur­roun­dings through its ochre colour palette. The building con­sists of three stacked cubes. Thanks to this stag­gered arran­gement, with pro­jec­tions and recesses, there are various outdoor seating areas – covered spots with shade or box seats in the sun.  

The lowest level, where you will find the living and dining area as well as the kitchen, is built into the slope and has an almost cave-like ambience in the rear section. To the front and to the side, the space opens up to magni­ficent views and pro­vides access to the spa­cious terrace with a 14-metre pool. The central cube houses the ent­rance level with a parking space inte­grated into the slope. On this level there is another living area and a bedroom. The third cube fea­tures two more bed­rooms. All levels are con­nected via an open steel staircase.

    Als pro­fes­sio­nelle Innen­ar­chi­tekten hatte uns Trecubi schon bei unserer Buchung sehr ange­sprochen. Das Ein­treffen dann dort, mit den wun­der­schönen licht­durch­flu­teten Räumen und zu jeder Tageszeit fas­zi­nie­renden Aus­blicken auf die sizi­lia­nische Land­schaft war bereits ein beson­deres Erlebnis. Die Räume sind sehr groß­zügig geschnitten, wir fanden so viele Lieb­lings­plätze drinnen wie draußen, das Haus bot so viel Lebens­qua­lität für unsere ganze Familie, dass wir uns rundum wohl­fühlten im Trecubi und von dort aus den Süd­osten von Sizilien sehr ent­spannt erkun­deten.

    Wir sind wieder zurück aus einem wun­der­vollen Urlaub in Sizilien im Sep­tember 2023. Das Trecubi war ein super tolles Feri­enhaus, total sty­lisch und mit viel Geschmack ein­ge­richtet. Alles war groß­zügig und es war ein Haus mit “Seele”; man hat bemerkt, dass die Eigen­tümer dort auch gerne sind.
    Wir haben uns sehr wohl­ge­fühlt. Auch die Betreuung von Sebas­tiano vor Ort war prima.
    Die Buchung über Siculus (Katja und Jochen) war sehr angenehm und unkom­pli­ziert.

    Mein Mann und ich hatten eine wun­der­volle Woche im Haus TreCubi ! Das Haus ist ein Schmuck­stück moderner Archi­tektur – noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Die Lage in den Hügeln um Noto, mit Blick aufs Meer, ist fan­tas­tisch, und die Küche ist ein Traum für Hobby-Köche – sehr gut ein­ge­richtet. Das check-in mit Sebas­tiano, dem netten Haus­ver­walter, war pro­blemlos; Sebas­tiano ist auch während des Auf­ent­halts jederzeit für Fragen oder Hilfe erreichbar. Ganz beson­deren Dank noch an Katja und Joachim: wir hatten das Haus erst 3 Tage vor Anreise gebucht, weil wir unsere ursprüng­lichen Urlaubs­pläne wegen des Coro­na­virus ganz kurz­fristig ändern mussten – und Katja und Joachim haben dies möglich gemacht dank ihrer ultra­schneller Ant­worten und rascher Orga­ni­sation !
