"Our stay at Villa Athena was amazing. The view of Concordia from our room was breathtaking. The staff was professional, thoughtful and always doing little things to make our stay special. We took advantage of the experiences that the hotel offered. We had a cooking class and had a picnic at Athena Farms. The spa was nice and the massage heavenly. Each meal in the terrace was delicious. It was a respite in the middle of our trip. We will cherish the memories made at Villa Athena."

"Quiet elegance, the kind of place where everything just works and is exactly what we needed. Like other reviewers, once I discovered the tranquility of Villa Diana, I wished we'd booked another night or two. Very comfortable beds, lovely linens, felt like a reset, that unquantifiable confirmation that yes, this is a vacation. Huge bathrooms with massive bathtub and excellent shower. Breakfast was lovely for several reasons. Diana makes marmalades from fruit trees on their farm and oil from their olive trees. The abundant tables also include fresh eggs from their chickens, plush cakes bursting with fresh preserves, plates of local meats and cheese, honey from their farm, and coffee any way you like it. But in addition to the lovely food, the thoughtfully set tables, and the overall elegance of the space, there is a tone of welcoming camaraderie and space for leisurely chats. In terms of the property, it is a villa with a working farm. We arrived in the early afternoon and sat for a while on our balcony enjoying the expansive view of the hills and farmlands of Agrigento. At night, it's was so very quiet and star-studded. In the morning, we opened our balcony doors to birdsong and the sound of chickens and goats. Honestly, idyllic. At the center of everything is Dario, who kindly welcomed us, showed us his land, his farm, gave us tips for enjoying Agrigento's history and engaging with its vibrant present. We hope to return and spend more time."

"Very nice place to stay in Agrigento—upon checkin we were upgraded to a room with a personal pool and beautiful view of the Valley of the Temples. The concierge was very helpful in booking taxis and seeing that our stay was comfortable and relaxing."

"We really enjoyed our short stay. It is a small B&B and the owner is super attentive and caring. Great location for explore Agrigento. Very convenient to great restaurants and ice cream shops. About 10 min walk to train/bus station, 40 min to the valley of the temples. Great ocean view in front of the tree lined street. "
