Stay here at your own peril, you may never want to leave!
The views from the apartment are splendid. You'll get three balconies, and with that comes a 360 degreee view of the Palermo harbour, including Monte Pelligrino. You can see the mountains behind the apartment, dotted as they are with their dry climate trees. Beyond the mountains is the island's interior, Sicily, just wow!
Gabriella is an amazing host. Before we left for Palermo she was in touch with us to make sure we were all set for arrival. She booked an airport transfer for us for when we arrived and it made the whole arrival so much smoother! The apartment was clean, airy, and stocked with clean sheets, more than enough for our 3 week stay.
For those who have the privilege to be able to work from anywhere, Gabriella's place provides crisp, speedy WiFi, better than I have in my own home.
We were three people, all working remotely, and it was perfect for this. You could even go as two couples, and all work comfortably.
Bathrooms, 3 of, all great.
The kitchen is super Italian, with beautiful, rustic tiles, and a door that opens to the balcony. There's two hobs, an oven, and two types of coffee maker, so you can decided whether you'll be having an americano or an an espresso to go along with you sea views.
Location wise, you're a 15/20 minute walk from the centro storico, and only 5 minutes from the botanical gardens. The nearest bakery is 2 minutes away, and the nearest cafe/bar, Bar Italico, will quickly get to know you! Gabriella also was more than helpful with tips on where to go.
Our time in Palermo will always be a special time for us, made even more special by our stay at Case Mare. Thank you Gabriella!!
