My partner and I stayed at Gaspare's apartment in Mondello. The apartment was wonderful very clean, spacious and perfect either for a couple as a retreat or for a family with a double bedroom with and en suite and two single beds. It is in the perfect location as the beach is a 5 minute walk and the main Piazza Mondello with authentic Sicilian restaurants and market shops are within 5 minutes as well. The bus stop is 2 minutes walk which takes you straight into Palermo city centre within 15/20 minutes. Email contact with Gaspare was easy and he provided lots of info regarding restaurants to go to and ones to avoid and places to visit and he phoned us both on arrival to make sure our flight and our shuttle from the airport to apartment was ok and on departure which was lovely touch. The views from the private sun terrace of Mount Pellegrino and the bay of Mondello were stunning. All in all a definite recommendation and hoping to return in August.
