Marianna's house is smart and cozy. Everything is new and in great condition. The house was just perfect for us. The parking space was definitely a plus and the location was optimal-- just at the end of the state highway. Getting to the beaches of Scopello and Riserva dello Zingaro was quick and easy. We really enjoyed our stay here. Minor thing to keep in mind is that you would need to bring the basics with you. We couldn't find the dish detergent/sponge. However, We did leave a good amount of toiletries for the next guests. Castellmare del Golfo is the ideal place to stay. Not a tourist trap like San Vito lo Capo but definitely beautiful in its own right, with an idyllic center and marina for nighttime entertainment. All in all, the stay was fantastic and I highly recommend Marianna's home to those thinking of exploring the area.
