The villa is spacious and we really enjoyed the direct access to the sea. The host was very helpful ahead of our arrival and also very quick to sort out some requests we had to make our stay more comfortable including arranging daily cleaning for us last minute as I had forgotten to ask ahead of arrival. The local taxi driver Rosario was brilliant ferrying us to the shops, for dinner and on trips to Palermo city centre, Monreale and Cefalu. It is important to understand that despite appearing close to town on the map walking there is not really viable. There is however, a nice restaurant very close to the Villa that can be accessed up the steps just outside the front gate.
