Mariarosa's house, located in an attractive vineyard just outside of Calatafimi-Segesta, is very much as described: large, appealingly decorated, with a number of attractive outdoor areas in which to eat, relax, and watch the sun set over the hills to the west. The kitchen is a genuine kitchen in which you can really cook: it offers lots of dishes and pots and pans, just about everything a serious cook might want. The television includes Netflix, while the pool is small but attractive. Although we did not meet Mariarosa, Claudia was a wonderful host in her stead. She was an excellent communicator, getting in touch with us days before we were scheduled to arrive. She met us when we arrived and saw us off as well. She was charming and attentive and saw to our every need. This house represents a wonderful value and a perfect place from which to explore the area.
