In a few words, the Alessi family is incredible and I can call them my new Sicilian family! They are all gracious, welcoming, helpful, make you feel at home, kind and loving.

I have been traveling alone for 3 weeks and I felt like home on my stay with the Alessi family. The home is spacious, airy, clean, typical Sicilian architecture, quiet and very central.

Mr Alessi sent his daughter Marina to walk with me and show me the entire town. He took me on his scooter to buy groceries and I cooked dinner with them and we all ate together that night. Do ask him about his english girlfriend :)

Mrs Alessi made every effort to speak to me in English and cooked for me a lemon, apple tart for breakfast! She is adorable to the core

Marina took me to dinner with her friends to the best pizza in palermo.

In a nutshell, if you are lucky to find their home vacant on the dates of your travel, Book it as it will add color and life to your Sicilian Vacation!

Ciao!
