We knew when we booked Mariella’s home that we were going to get something out of the ordinary, but we didn’t realize just how extraordinary it would be. The physical space itself is remarkable, with ceilings that stretch three floors above marble, concrete, and wood, with light that seems to pour in from the windows, bathing the entire space in light. What is built into the space is more remarkable, an structure that is at once an effortless and beautiful marriage of stone, glass, and steel that forms three separate levels. And finally, perhaps most remarkable, what fills these beautiful spaces is an expertly curated selection of art, sculpture, and textile that somehow manage to not distract nor detract from their environment, but rather amplify and highlight each and every space. It is a sight to see, and coming home to it each night after seeing the beautiful sights in Palermo felt fitting.
On the practical level, Mariella’s home is very well appointed, and she made our experience easy and comfortable. She was very fast to respond to our messages and questions, and we had no doubt that we were in good hands.
Don’t miss the opportunity to stay here.
