Very well maintained. Helpful hosts. Lovely garden. Acs everywhere. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable bed. Only issue is parking. Streets are very narrow and you need to park very close to the side of the road, which can be tricky, especially with stick shift on a hill. This is, of course, not under the control of the owners, but something to take into account. ##### jXMYLza9L3faho8yzWdPKNpD9To7iRkL0Kq+g9gGtnYtg71lMYxaN4i+pnc2DAAAAcDBuBgkqhkiG9w0BBwagYTBfAgEAMFoGCSq j.

La maison était conforme à sa description. La vue magnifique et le parc très agréable et calme. Un petit bémol était l’accès à l’espace extérieur qui n’était pas de plein pied car le logement est à l’étage mais ce n’était pas non plus très dérangeant. Un petit complément de vaisselle, notamment de verres serait nécessaire pour ne pas avoir à faire tourner le lave vaisselle à chaque repas. ##### Claire M.

We will highly recommend this little piece of heaven to all of our friends. Most importantly, Francesca was an amazing host - she left us coffee, wine, and pastries to enjoy.

The two villas are very private though as they each have their own pool set well apart amongst the trees. The trees also provide lots of afternoon shade around the pool. The accommodation is upstairs with lovely views across to Erice and Cofano National Reserve. Parking is on the street but there are no other cars around so not a problem at all. Francesca was great, providing us plenty of information about the local beaches, attractions, restaurants and supermarkets as well as some tasty local treats! Wifi worked fine and the three double bedrooms had air-conditioning that worked well. Some of the furniture could do with updating but did not detract from this being a great family villa and we had a lovely relaxing week. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin L. 8 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property and easy drive to many places in western Sicily!

The place is fully updated with good bathrooms and kitchen. Lots of light, too. We had no problem parking on street. Roads adjacent to the villa are tight, but typical of small villages in Italy. Great hostesses! Go to nearby Ristorante Sirena as recommended! It is super. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend a stay here. ##### Carl T.

Francesca and Christina so kind and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble for them to make your stay everything you want it to be. If you want beautiful countryside, a stunning botanical garden to walk around and fancy living in a small castle then this is the place for you.
