Alexandro was and is a true gentleman.
My family and I (7 in total) decided it was time to re-visit our roots back in Sicily. My grandmother (the Sicilian one) hadn’t touched foot in Sicily since her youth. More than ever, I wanted to make sure the accommodation was spot on. Thankfully, I found Alessandro, his wife & Sister, and his beautifully presented 4 bedroom home located in the heart of Palermo.
Upon our arrival, Alessandro had kindly arranged an 8 seater to pick us from the airport. After a short 25 minutes car journey to Dimora Torremuzza, we were welcomed by Alessandro outside the building with open arms, a big smile and a finely tailored suit. The Palermo experience had begun. The building itself was beautifully restored and oozed Sicilian authenticity. He walked us up into the flat where his charming wife & sister were waiting to greet us. To boot, a cake was baked! The flat was immaculate. It had charm, immense character and best of all, a lovely terrace overlooking the sea and the neighbouring buildings.
Not only was the flat perfect, but Alessandro was kind enough to walk us to a nearby restaurant as we were all famished. The food did not disappoint one bit. Furthermore, he arranged a car hire for us and also recommended other restaurants which left us all in a state of amazement.
If you are looking to stay in Palermo, look no further. Alessandro is the man!
