Holiday houses in Giacalone

The villa may very well be the nicest one in Monreale when you consider the views, cleanliness, size, and balcony. Manola (and Alessandro) were great hosts; responsive and helpful throughout the stay. Bedding was comfortable, especially for Europe. Views were 15/10 immaculate, especially during sunrise. Would stay again!

The owner is a really friendly and helpful person. On the first day, due to a problem with the rental car, we couldn't get to the house, but he came to pick us up and we're really grateful. Throughout our stay, he helped us a lot, recommending local restaurants and offering us delicious coffee, drinks, and cookies. We even had a barbecue in the house, with all the necessary tools available, creating beautiful memories. We also tasted a pizza typical of Palermo, really unique. The house was clean and tidy, and during our conversations we found out that the owner dedicated all his commitment and passion to this home. We had the pleasure of having dinner with your son, who turned out to be a kind, fun, and really nice person. The view from the house is enchanting, the fresh air and the spectacular pool: really the ideal choice for a vacation. We are sure we will be back.

We enjoyed our stay on the farm very much. The small, detached cottage with its own terrace is wonderfully quiet on a large plot, surrounded by olive, lemon and orange trees - a beautiful, private place to unwind. Palermo can be reached in about 30 minutes by car, the airport is only about 20 minutes away Domenico was a very friendly host, always immediately available and gave us many great tips for excursions and restaurants. We can definitely recommend the accommodation - perfect for those who appreciate peace, nature and privacy.

Lovely villa with stupendous grounds and gardens. Many artistic, historical and family artifacts made this stay a cultural adventure. We had two cars and enjoyed the leaving the cars there and being able to train into Palermo, avoiding driving into the big city with traffic and ZTL issues. Geri was an absolute joy and one of the nicest, most generous hosts I’ve ever met. We had a wonderful time here!

Santi is an amazing host! It was like we were staying at a friend's house for the week. We had nice long conversations amongst a bonfire in the evening and Santi even offered a hike on one of the mountains in the area with amazing views. His dog Eli is simply lovely. She was always happy to stay around us when we were sitting on the terrace. The house is very neat and offers everything you'll need for a comfortable stay. Couldn't recommend enough! Thank you, grazie mille, Santi and Eli! :-)

We had a fantastic stay at Silke’s place. Tranquil location with stunning views and a stunning sunrise if you’re an early riser! I agree with many other reviews, the villa is even better in person. Alexandra and Alex greeted us, were extremely friendly and hospitable and were very responsive and helpful. Couldn’t ask for more from a hosting perspective. You’ll need a car to get the most out of the experience. Some of the roads leading to the villa are unpaved (no problem) but a car that isn’t super low would be preferable. The pool was warm, there were multiple comfortable outdoor spaces which we found positively impacted our stay. The whole design of the villa is great. The villa was perfectly equipped and we couldn’t ask for anything more during our stay. Would highly recommend!

Best place we've been in a long time, better than advertised and perfect in any way. Felt better than home

Five Stars! This apartment in Palermo was absolutely beautiful—immaculately clean, tastefully decorated, and perfectly located within easy reach of the city’s main attractions. The stunning water views made every morning feel like a postcard. The host’s pick-up and drop-off service to the airport was seamless—punctual, professional, and incredibly convenient. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Laura, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay. She shared great restaurant recommendations and even offered to make reservations for us. She made it clear we could reach out anytime for help. We highly recommend this apartment and all the services provided by the host. Grazie mille, and bravo!
