WOW!!! We were slightly hesitant to book this brand new incredible home, but boy are we glad we did. When Barry said you would find yourself in the very heart of Palermo Soho, he wasn’t kidding. We walked out our door to the best cafe’s, shops, and restaurants along with some of the coolest bars and nightlife all within a few blocks. In one direction you will find yourself just two blocks to Plaza Armenia with the very best restaurants and cafes and in the other direction only 4-5 blocks to Plaza Serrano with so many cool bars and nightlife.
As a host with Airbnb, I must say that Barry and his local host Coco were Amazing! They answered every question, gave us incredible recommendations, and really made us feel at home. Coco was there to meet and greet us and showed us around this home which is really is unbelievable. Every single detail was thought of from USB chargers in every room to separate refrigerator on the terrace level for our convenience. The design was a mix of classic Palermo architecture mixed with a very cool contemporary feel inside. Every bathroom had a full shower, and one was more incredible than the next. From the spacious living room with private balcony overlooking the Palermo Soho neighborhood to all the natural lighting in all bedrooms, it clearly was designed with everything in mind.
For certain, the most incredible part of this home was the extremely large rooftop terrace area with 360-degree views. It is entirely private, and we enjoyed not just the Jacuzzi, but also the amazing outside BBQ with its covered outside dining area. Details like lighting, sound system, outdoor shower, lounge, and sundeck made us feel like we were at a luxury hotel. We really had the very best time exploring BA for the first time, but we couldn’t wait to get back to watch the sunset from our private terrace while drinking some of the great local wines.
We couldn’t recommend this home enough for both groups of friends like us or for larger families. We are very happy to have been the first official guests at this amazing home, and we know the next time our travels bring us back to BA we would never stay anywhere else!!
