A very nice and spacious house in a very quiet surrounding and a beautiful view from the garden to the small port, not far from the busy centre of Castellammare with restaurants and shops. Vito is a very friendly and attentive host, and speaks English fluently so that for us non-Italian-speaking guests communication was easy. The weather was variable and chilly (January) but it did not matter as there are a lot of things to visit. Castellammare is a good starting point for visiting Palermo, Corleone, Erice, Trapani, Monreale and several archeological sites. Do visit the hot springs in Segestane in winter! Also hiking activities are within reach (recommendable the beautiful Zingaro natural park).
