Our first visit to Sicily and Marco's house provided a great location for the four of us to spend a lovely, tranquil week. His team set up a social media chat group shortly before our arrival and this was really helpful for communicating about our arrival and departure. We were very grateful when we got lost and Josey came to find us!
The house itself was wondefully spacious, comfortable, clean and well equipped. So glad to have a big fridge and A/C! Super useful to have car parking on site! The outdoor areas were fabulous: we loved the garden and terrace where we could sit looking out at the stunning surrounding landscape, mountains, sea and beautiful sunsets. The pool was amazing - clean, vast and with varied seating and lounging areas (and pool shower).
We enjoyed being able to walk into Terrasini (about 15 minutes to the attractive town square) for shops, cafes and restaurants; and down to the beach (under 10 minutes) to swim in the clear, blue sea. (Local beach is sandy.) Being able to take a train from Piraineto to Palermo centre was really useful.
We had a hire car which was useful for a trip to the biggest local supermarket (and carrying bottled water for drinking) and drive to Piraineto station. (Terrasini station is walking distance but trains fewer; and there are several smaller supermarkets in the centre of Terrasini.)
The recycling regime appeared complicated at first but we got into the swing of it.
We had a super, lovely relaxing stay.
Thank you.
