This was an amazing experience to be in this beautiful rooftop studio apartment. It was exactly as pictured but standing there and seeing the beautiful port and cassatella of Castellammare Del Golfo is something truly to be experienced. The views were breathtaking, the apartment was spotless and decorated so beautifully with its blue theme which carries all the way out to the Sea. I spent 34 Glorious Days at this property and my heart is broken that I had to leave. I was met with a beautiful reception of typical Sicilian pastries, Delicious Fruit and almonds. My host was in France where she lives, but her heart was there throughout my entire stay, as her representative, sweet Valaria did anything and everything to help make my stay a memorable experience. And she was always reachable via email and was quick to respond. The building is located minutes from the port and shopping and anything that you would need or want. The area is beautiful and safe and I never had any problems. It was "home". The people of Castellamarre Del Golfo are warm and welcoming. The location of the property is minutes from so many sites...Segesta, Scopello, Trapani, San Vito Lo Capo, Zingaro, and Marsala. I rented a car and I had the time of my life. There was always hot water, the kitchen was very well equipped with everything that you would need for a weekend or a long stay. Odile has beautiful taste in decor and a keen sense of what the traveler will need and want. Although we did not meet personally, I felt as though she was there. She arrived at the end of my stay but we missed one another in a couple of failed attempts due to our schedules. It is certainly worth the climb to the very top floor for this "knock your socks off" experience! My deepest thanks, for such a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I will return again and again!
