Ily´s small house is part of her parents´ larger house with its own entrance and patio area. It is located right off a highway just outside of Agrigento so it´s pretty convenient for exploring the area if you have a car, which can be parked right outside the door. It was only about a 10-15 minute drive from the spectacular Valley of the Temples. The house lives up to it´s name, ¨Artists´ House,¨ since it is filled with paintings and sculpture done by Ily´s parents. The most striking aspect of the design is the beautiful use of patterned decorative tile in every room. The large bed is comfortable and the kitchen, although only equipped with basics, is functional. We especially liked the lovely outdoor area, surrounded by lush trees and plants, and would have liked to have dined on the patio if we had stayed longer than 1 night. Ily is a great host, meeting us in the center of town to escort us to the house, and communication was easy and quick. Highly recommended.
