Wonderful Place, We Would Return!
An amazing property. Large roomy home, big beds, nice kitchen with gas stove, outdoor portico, tennis court, and stunning grounds. Very clean. View of Tyrrhenian Sea is breathtaking. Room for two to three cars on property. There is a remote control security gate.
You can walk down to the ocean if you are careful to see a pretty reef/rock beach. A solar panel provides hot water. On cloudy days the owner can remotely engage the liquid propane (LP) water heater to supplement the solar system. You should ask them to do this. We asked for extra towels and promptly received a giant bag full of them. The water is not potable (drinkable), but is perfectly safe for cooking, brushing your teeth, and taking a shower. This is very common in the area, and other parts of Sicily, and should not deter you. We used bottled water which is extremely cheap in the area.
This rental is also great because of the proximity to all kinds of places, such as Palermo, Corleone, Mezzojuso, Agrigento, and Cefalu. Just nearby is the Wonderful town of Santa Flavia, which has eateries, bakeries, cafés, and nice little shops. We gave this property five stars in respect except for check-in, which we gave four stars, because the individual turning over the keys was an hour late. But like everything else in Sicily each supposed disappointment always results in some other pleasantry. While we waited for our host, we went to a very nice little eatery in Santa Flavia and had a great time.
