We were a large family group and had the whole place (3 apartments and 1 double room) to ourselves. For groups, this place is ideal, because you can cook and eat together. But still you can get out of each other's way, if you want to. Francesco was very accommodating regarding the big group and the family visits from other parts of Sicily. To the beach and the city center (very nice) it is a 10 - 15 minute drive. Mazara del Vallo is a great location for exploring the western part of Sicily. + Very nice large pool + Plenty of places to sit in the sun and shade and eat outdoors + Beach towels are there and for free. Francesco also offered us umbrellas for the beach + Francesco and his wife cooked for us for a birthday dinner. The food and wine was plentiful, delicious and the price was fair + Francesco is very helpful with tips and information. Although he and his wife live right next door on the property, they take care that you still have your privacy + Francesco speaks very good English, so if you don't speak Italian you can still communicate very well + The apartments are clean + The beds are very comfortable (although some of them look very primative) - The furniture is somewhat old/used. It looks like furniture that no one would want in their own apartment, but for a vacation apartment it is "good enough" - The rules regarding the air conditioning are expensive. AC costs 50 Euros extra per week. That would maybe be OK. However, this is not per apartment, but per unit. So if you have an apartment with 3 air conditioners, this is 150 Euros extra on top of the price (which isn't particularly cheap) - As mentioned, we were a big group and we had the whole place to ourselves. As the apartments are all interconnected and the outside areas are common, some people might not feel comfortable renting just one apartment with strangers in the remaining apartments

The house is super nice with lots of beds and all the comforts you need. The swimming pool is perfect to relax a bit during the hot Sicilian evenings. The host is really kind and always available to help. Highly recommended.

A very nice and well maintained , rustic old villa with lots of charm and coziness, with a great swimming pool and excellent views of the sea. We were a large group of 21, and Francesco and Leyani were excellent hosts to us. Not only did they cook us amazing dinners each night, but were very helpful in arranging taxi services, tips on a great wine tasting, restaurants and nightlife.

Had a very special stay, accommodation is excellent and hosts Francesco and Leyani are very welcoming. They did everything they could to provide the best holiday experience possible. They cooked excellent food in the evening for us to enjoy, accompanied by lovely wine. Francesco also arranged taxi service to get us around when needed. He suggested and booked for us other restaurants and activitiies. I would definately recommend this Villa and Thankyou again to the hosts for making my daughter's party of 20 a very happy occassion.
