Salvatore and his family received us really warm-heartedly and he gave us plenty of information about where to go and what to do around the area. If you want to stay in a place where you can get in touch with the locals go and stay in Casteldaccia. Lovely lively small shops just around the corner and a fully equipped flat at this price are unbeatable if you are looking for a base for exploring the Palermo area. The 3 minutes to the seaside are meant driving, a 15 min walk also takes you there and to the train station​.
