We found the Ficodindia apartment at Casa Rossa suited our needs perfectly. Situated in Monreale, the apartment was a suitable distance from the busyness of Palermo and yet we were still able to visit the city's must-see sites. Monreale overlooks Palermo, providing an impressive view of the city. Its cathedral is a stunning example of Norman architecture, with some of the most beautiful mosaics we saw while in Sicily.
The apartment was well equipped and Federica and Carmelo were very welcoming and provided information about the local area and suggested a range of places to eat: La Botte, with its attentive staff, delicious traditional Sicilian food and wines, relaxed atmosphere and modest prices was the best restaurant we experienced anywhere in Sicily. The restaurant also provided a taxi to and from the restaurant free of charge - amazing service.
