We loved our house in Castellamare Del Golfo! The house is located in a gated community and the host provides an electronic key for the main gate and the gate to the driveway. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We swam in the beautiful pool A LOT and even cooked dinner on the outside stove.
The yard was full of beautiful plants and flowers and was picturesque, especially with the mountain behind the house which looks like it is in your backyard.
The house comes with a toy box inside and also has a box of outdoor toys outside so the kids were happy.
The only thing I wish we knew before arriving was that the mosquitos are bad. It was probably the time of year, so if you choose to go in the summer, make sure you bring bug spray so you can enjoy sitting outside.
The 4th bedroom is pretty small but perfect if someone in the group needs their own room. We had two families (4 adults, 7 kids) but it never seemed crammed.
Other than the mosquitos, we could not have been happier and would definitely recommend this house. It’s an easy drive to the main spots in west coast Sicily, but you are able to enjoy the quiet country living outside of town.
