First impressions were very good. The hotel was easy to find and it was easy to park. The room was spacious, light and airy, and very clean. Likewise the en-suite. The hotel is set back from the road. Despite having a room fronting the road, traffic noise was not a problem. We had a double bed. Every slight movement caused... More

This ancient but modernised farm complex has rooms surrounding an internal courtyard, with views of surrounding olive groves and a distant view, from our comfortable room at least, of a pillar of the Temple of Zeus at Selinunte itself. The breakfast was excellent, but most notable was the very helpful advice from the reception about visiting Selinunte and the Cave... More

A beautiful country hotel at reasonable prices with a delicious generous breakfast and very friendly helpful owners. The hotel is set in olive groves -the rooms are a generous size with elegant furnishings and good sized bathroom with plenty of hot water. This is an ideal spot for visiting the site of Selinunte. Very welcoming to families.

Centrally located, set back off the highway, quiet and friendly. We were greeted by Anna who showed us to our room which was spacious, comfortable and very clean. She also was responsible for our delicious breakfast which included freshly brewed coffee, locally made salume and home made marmalade from citrus grown on the property and made by the owner. The...

Had booked this expecting to be able to enjoy a relaxed meal in the restaurant but was disappointed to find that the restaurant had closed 2 weeks before our arrival. We ended up having to go into the village of Marinella di Selinunte to eat, which was precisely what we didn't want to do! We stayed one night to see... More

Only booked in for one night and wish out itinerary had allowed more time. Beautiful old mansion, nice rooms with all conveniences, and a view over the olive groves. Quiet, peaceful. Excellent staff (our italian is minimal!). Wonderful dinner in the courtyard with waitress who took pleasure in explaining the dishes and their ingredients. Tasted as good as she had... More

We stayed in this hotel for a week in May 2012 with friends and used it as a base to explore the surrounding area. It would not be possible to stay anywhere with more friendly and helpful staff and we must thank both Donatella and Lia for all their help in making our holiday so enjoyable. The rooms are spacious,... More

We stayed here for 4 nights during a two week tour of Sicily. It was one of the best hotels we stayed in and much better value than all the others. There is nothing slick and fashionable about it (and no swimming pool) - just good old fashioned hospitality in a well restored old farmhouse around a beautiful courtyard with... More

It is an old farm, perfectly refurbished by the owner, a true lover of his country, with a great care of the datails. We had a very large room with 4 beds with a lovely view of the olive trees around. We had a good dinner in the suggestive frame of the yard, with typical Sicily dishes, after enjoying a... More
