Great apartment in a fabulous location.

The apartment was well prepared and spotlessly clean, and we were welcomed warmly by Angela. There was also some free essential supplies on the kitchen table including excellent coffee! Only about 100m from the beach (and 2 superb pizzeria ristorantes), it was also an easy drive or gentle walk from Balestrate. The town had some really nice gelataria and cafes, and was a regular stop off on our way back from day trips. Within easy reach of a lot of interesting days out, the apartment allowed us to get the right balance between sightseeing and relaxing.

Bug e sua moglie sono stati degli ospiti esemplari , hanno osservato tutte le regole della casa, molto simpatici, riservati. Hanno lasciato l'appartamento pulitissimo e molto ordinato. li consiglio come ospiti e spero che se decidessero di ritornare la mia casa sia la preferita per loro. Grazie Bug!

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, die Wohnung hat alles, was man braucht, ist sehr sauber, unser Highlight ist die grandiose Dachterrasse!Der Kontakt mit Angela war unkompliziert und super freundlich , sie hat bei Fragen sofort reagiert. Es gab ein Einstiegspaket mit Wasser, Kaffee, Keksen, was super hilfreich war, weil wir mit Verspätung ankamen und erst am nächsten Tag einkaufen konnten.Der Ortsteil ist ein bisschen ausserhalb, für jemanden, der nicht mobil ist, kann das etwas schwierig sein.Sehr gerne wieder!!!

l'appartement était hyper propre et Dieu sait si je suis difficile. Nous avons eu un accueil chaleureux de la part des propriétaires qui étaient aussi très pro-actifs.Seul bemol: en fin de saison, il n'y a pas de coin d'ombre sur la terrasse mais Angela a trouvé une solution.

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung direkt am Meer, schön eingerichtet und wirklich sauber. Die Küche war auch top ausgestattet und die Gastgeberin war sehr nett. Unser Highlight war die große Terrasse oben direkt an der Wohnung.Der Sandstrand ist nicht mal 200m entfernt. Allerdings ist die Stadt, in der die Ferienwohnung liegt nicht so schön, wir haben die Gegend mit einem Mietwagen erkundet und innerhalb 1h die schönsten Strände und Buchten gefunden.In allem aber wirklich TOP!

A very clean and modern apartment with a terrace roof situated close to the beach

The listing description was accurate regarding the location. The property was clean and all the services were well maintained. The owner, Angela, responded quickly to any questions we had. There is a lovely view from the roof and the sea was only about 100 metres away with its own deck chairs and umbrellas. There are two pizza restaurants within 100 metres of the property. There is lots of free parking space close by. It is about 1 km outside the town of Balestrate and so a car would be recommended. We would recommend this property to our friends.

200 METERS FROM THE BEACH

Angela is a very nice person, always ready to help. the apartment was exactly as described in the web site, very confortable, modern and clean. on top you will find a perfect view on the sea which will delight your breakfasts on the terrace. best is to rent a car but towncentre is only 1km on foot with the sea road. located at 20 minutes from Castellamare del Golfo a typical fishery town with restaurants and pubs we were 2 adults and 2 children 6 and 10 from Paris

toller urlaub / grande festa

Liebe Urlauber, wir waren Mitte bis Ende April 2016 mit unseren beiden Töchtern (4 + 1 Jahr) bei Angela in Balestrate. Wir haben in der Dachgeschosswohnung it großer Terrasse gewohnt. Wir können die Wohnung, Angela als Vermieterin und die Stadt Balestrate zu 100% weiterempfehlen. Die Wohnung ist sehr groß und schön. Sie ist komplett ausgestattet und verfügt über eine riesige 60qm Terrasse, auf der sich super entspannen und essen lässt. Angela war stets um unser Wohlbefinden bemüht und sehr lieb. Ein großes Dankeschön noch einmal an sie. Balestrate befindet sich im April zwar noch in der Vorsaison, aber wenn man das sucht und mag, ist es umso schöner. Tolle liebe Menschen und tolles italienisches Flair. Dankeschön, vier Berliner Cari turisti, eravamo a metà a fine aprile 2016, le nostre due figlie (4 + 1 anno) a Angela a Balestrate. Siamo stati in soffitta è grande terrazza. Siamo in grado di consigliare al 100% l'appartamento, Angela come un padrone di casa e la città di Balestrate. L'appartamento è molto grande e bella. E 'completamente attrezzata e ha una grande terrazza di 60 mq in cui può essere super rilassarsi e mangiare. Angela cercava sempre di nostro benessere e molto affettuoso. Un grazie di nuovo a voi. Balestrate si trova nel mese di aprile ancora in pre-stagione, ma se si guarda per questo e simili, è ancora più bello. Grande amore persone e grande stile italiano. Grazie, quattro Berlino

Mansarda vista mare

Appartamento molto curato e ben arredato vicino al mare, la proprietaria di casa è stata molto disponibile per qualsiasi evenienza e ci ha accolti con 4 meravigliosi cannoli siciliani. Base ideale per chi vuole ammirare le bellezze della Sicilia tipo la Riserva dello Zingaro o la tonnara di Scopello, Palermo, Monreale, Mondello
