Staying at Carmela’s guest house was without question the highlight of our trip to Sicily. We arrived very late and Carmela and her partner greeted us personally. They were excellent hosts and warm/interesting conversationalists, and went above and beyond our expectations to ensure we had all we needed for our stay including providing basic supplies to welcome us and to make our arrival comfortable (coffee, milk, water, even Sicilian pastries for our morning breakfast!!); bringing over board games and crayons for our six-year-old; and suggesting great places of interest to visit. The guest house and property is exquisitely designed. We woke up every morning to awe-inducing panoramic views of the dreamy regional landscapes and absolutely loved the tranquility and calmness of the location. Maintenance of the grounds and guest house were impeccable. We were thankful having our car rental which allowed us to easily access the gorgeous sandy beaches and nearby towns and places of interest (e.g., Sciacca, Bova Marina, Agrigento, and Scala dei Turchi). Needless to say we were sad to leave Carmela’s sanctuary and hope to visit again next year.
