Vanda's place is very well located, with it being only a 10 minute walk to the historical centre of Palermo and the Teatro Massimo. Nothing was ever too far away. It is also not a far walk to the bus stop where you can catch the bus to Mondello Beach.
The place itself was spotlessly clean, spacious and stylish. In terms of amenities, it has everything you need with a fridge/freezer, an oven and a microwave. There are several fans and the main bedroom has air conditioning. It's worth mentioning that should you wish, you can connect your phone to the TV and play YouTube and Netflix etc.. through it, which was a really nice bonus. The bathroom is also very nice and the shower even nicer. There were plenty of towels and toilet rolls supplied.
The best part for us was the terrace. The view was as described, absolutely breathtaking and arguably the best in Palermo. We sat up there every night and watched the sun go down with a few drinks. The spiral staircase was a bit of a challenge at first but once you're used to it it's fine.
In summary, we had a wonderful stay at Vanda's place and would fully recommend.
