We used google translate to communicate at check in went ok. The house was clean and pretty nice. Location was good. Parking is a slight challenge on the streets but there is a parking lot down the hill that you can use. It was fairly hot while we visited. There is only air conditioning in the common space not the bedrooms. On the first floor we left our bedroom door open and with the ceiling fan it was ok. The second floor bedroom was a sauna. Unusable in warm weather, my sister in law slept on the first floor couch. Adding ac to the bedrooms would vastly improve the house.

Beautiful Port Views

The Fisherman’s House was in a great location with spectacular views of the port of Sciacca. Easy access using steps to go either to the port or to the main piazza. The host Tiziana was kind, professional and very welcoming. I will definitely be returning to this apartment when we return to Sciacca.

Just Breathe

The Fisherman’s House is lovely and soothing; it promotes relaxation. The views from the terraces are refreshing. The location is close to restaurants and shops. You can also easily get a taxi if the need be. Savio is a wonderful host! He helped us with arranging transport and handling our baggage. We were sad to leave and would stay here again!

We really enjoyed everything about our stay at this location! The house was decorated wonderfully will local art and seaside themed decor. Being just around the corner from the seafood market was a delightful bonus. We would purchase locally caught seafood caught daily and cook it in the well equipped kitchen. Having the washing machine on site was a very welcome benefit, as we were on the last leg of an almost three week trip. The host didn't speak much English, but we communicated just fine through Google translate, so there were no issues at all. They were so kind end generous. They even shared locally made olive oil with use for our delicious meals. There is a grocery store nearby where we were able to walk and get all of the other supplies needed to make delicious authentic Sicilian meals right there in the home. The A/C worked well, which is not always the case throughout Europe. The outside patio was the best part! You could see so many stars at night and watch the fishing boats come in and out of the port. The price was quite reasonable compared to many other locations we looked at. We hope yo return again to this little slice of paradise!

Schöne und saubere Ferienwohnung mit EinschränkungenWir waren eine Woche im September im Haus. Der Empfang durch die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich aber auch sehr schwierig, da sie nur italienisch und kein Wort englisch oder deutsch sprach. Das Haus ist sehr sauber. Die Räume sind großzügig möbelliert und sehr gut ausgestattet. In der Küche ist alles Notwendige vorhanden.Es gibt aber auch Negatives zu berichten. Die sehr schmale Eingangstreppe zur Wohnungstüre hat kein Treppengeländer, sodass mit einem großen Koffer Gefahr besteht, die Treppe herunter zu fallen. Auch die schmalen, steilen Treppen zu den Terrassen sind nur durch ein Seil gesichert. Außerdem sind die Stufen unterschiedlich hoch. Für mich als älterer Mensch mit einer Gehbehinderung war dies aus der Beschreibung nicht ersichtlich.

la ringrazio molto per aver condiviso la sua esperienza e per i gentili commenti sulla pulizia della casa e sull’accoglienza. Mi dispiace sinceramente che le scale e l’assenza di corrimano abbiano creato difficoltà, soprattutto considerando la sua esigenza di maggiore sicurezza. Accolgo con attenzione le sue osservazioni: provvederò ad aggiornare la descrizione dell’alloggio per indicare con maggiore chiarezza la presenza di scale strette e l’assenza di corrimano, così da informare meglio i futuri ospiti. Valuterò inoltre possibili soluzioni per rendere l’accesso più sicuro. Spero che, nonostante questi inconvenienti, il suo soggiorno sia stato piacevole e che possa conservare un buon ricordo della nostra casa e della zona. Cordiali saluti Savio

Gemütliches Haus mit fantastischer Aussicht

Wir waren 4 Tage in diesem liebevoll eingerichteten Haus und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die beiden chilligen Terrassen bieten ein fantastische Aussicht. Es befindet sich alles was man braucht in fußläufiger Nähe. Man darf allerdings keine Treppen scheuen, denn Sciacca ist extrem steil gebaut. Die Strandbar Aloha Beach am Ende des San Marco Strandes ist besonders zu empfehlen. Danke für einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt.
