We really enjoyed our stay at their seaside home base while we toured Sicily. The host was great and they gave us several suggestions for dinner in Palermo which we took. One thing to note that there are a lot of steps to walk to and from from the road to the villa which might make it difficult for someone with physical disabilities.

This place was just a dream, we spent a lot of time just hanging out at the house because of the views. Parking was easy just across the street and the hosts were very quick to response if we needed anything. Don’t hesitate to stay here, we were sad to leave!

beautiful stay in a real eden place!

Owners are wonderful and helpful, and the location of the place between Mondello and Palermo centre is ideal. The view is incredible and the place very quiet. You can even jump into the clear wonders underneath the terrace! The apartment is traditional but very cosy, and absolutely relaxing. Will definitely return there.

Great view, good location. Very nice owner. Just an fyi there is a night club about 150m from the house. Can hear the music and parking was an issue when having a late dinner. But all and all a great place. Breathtaking views!!!

Elvira and her brother were wonderful hosts, always making sure we had everything we needed! The house is extremely charming, spacious and clean, and we had all of the amenities we needed. We especially think the back terrace overlooking the sea view is the real “perle rare” of this place, we didn’t want to leave! Yes, it’s true, the house is close to a nightclub so some nights you will hear it but it didn’t bother us as we were tired from our days and we even went to check it out one night! Overall amazing stay we’d love to return again!

Great water views

Being on and in the water is required in Sicily and this property delivers. Mondello is a cute little beach town with fresh seafood and plenty of nightlife. The house is reminiscent of visiting your favorite great aunt, the bathrooms and kitchen are dated but the back veranda on the sea more than makes up for it. Grea There is a great little martlet, la Bottega di Nanno where you can get prepared foods and salumi’s and cheese to enjoy Al fresco back at the house.

A house at the sea

A nice house situated on rocks so it was hard to go swiming due to big waves. Beautiful sunrise since the house is turning east. We could swim 1,5 days out of 5. The beach in Mondello is close though. Nice host only Italian speeking. As always in southern Europe hard beds regarding standard beds in northern Europe. Bus station across the house.

Friends on Holiday

Fantastic sun terraces and great access to the ocean. Also an outside shower. Property could do with a bit of attention. Kitchen was small and needed updated. Plumbing and electrics could do with a bit of an upgrade. Transport required to access many restaurants. Finally we were very disappointed in the amount of rubbish on the streets of Palermo.

Beautiful spot by the sea between Palermo and Mondello

Terrific location right by the sea with a huge terrace and excellent layout for two families or couples with their own bathrooms on either side of the living room. The hosts were very friendly and approachable and the property is on the main bus route between Palermo and mondello. We would advise use of buses rather than driving in the busy city!!! Please note - If you value a very modern venue then this would not be the place for you, it is in need of renovation, and there are very steep steps should you have serious mobility problems. But these disadvantages are outweighed by the many positives for this property.

Wonderful view of the sea

We loved the large terrace overlooking the sea. It is the highlight of the property, a wonderful place to share a meal or simply enjoy the view and the sound of the waves. The villa is comfortable although dated. It features a large dining table. The kitchen is small and old. Internet service is good but the small TV does not support streaming services, just Italian channels. Be aware that two villas (this one and the one below) share the common area near the rocky shore. This unit did not have its own grill/BBQ so we did all cooking indoors. Easy drive to the beach town of Mondello which has much to offer.

Waterfront

The waterfront view with large windows was amazing. The house is spacious and comfortable. Nicely decorated. Unfortunately no private parking on property but there was always a spot outside of the house. Showers are tight but that's to be expected in Italy. There were an abundance of mosquitoes which made it difficult to be out - perhaps host may want to consider spraying frequently. Host was very responsive and took his time to explain the house at check-in. We were surprised that we were charged extra for 5 people when the property has 3 bedrooms (this was the first time I encountered this issue) but we paid it. We enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this house.

Dear Angela, thank you for your words and suggestion: I'll take them and will improve it! About the price difference it is clear on the website: although the house has 4 bedrooms for a max of 8 people, in order to attract smaller groups we differentiate the price based on the number of people that will rent the house. My best, Elvira

Beautiful Sea View

Great 4 bedroom home in Mondello with a great seaside terrace view. The home offers 2 bathrooms, nice living/dinning room area, adequate kitchen and washer. The terraced outside space was lovely and enjoyed all day. There are a series of stairs to navigate from the street level to the home. There is another home owned by a family member directly underneath and was rented out for the weekend we stayed. Both homes share the garden and the terraced sea access. We did not swim, due to schedule and weather. Home is convenient to Palermo and Mondello with a very nice grocery store nearby. Parking is located on the street directly in front of the home. Traffic can be busy at times. Fabio and his wife kindly greeted us the evening of our arrival, our flight was delayed and they were very accommodating

Dear Jelena, thank you for your suggestions. Let me tell you that the house could be dated (it our family home where we use to spend part of our summer) but I won't say dirty. The pressure of water is a big problem this year as the city administration is in trouble as the water reserve are at minimum capacity due the absence of rain from the past winter. So as a measure of emergency it has reduced the water pression to all the houses not just ours. My best, Elvira
