Massimo's place has the most incredible view and is perfect for a relaxing and romantic break. We had issues with bad weather (our visit was in late October), but because of the WiFi, view and good amenities, we just stayed in and it was still great. As we are vegan, we cooked most meals, and the fridge, microwave and hob made this easy.
When the weather was good, the hot tub was amazing. We did have issues with the hot tub after some bad weather, but Massimo came quickly to look at it and try and sort the problem out and was a responsive and polite host.
The location is good for access to the north west of Sicily, but a car is essential, and preferably one that can tolerate off road driving. We had a lovely time in Palermo, a beach day in castallamere del gulfo, and wandered around the historic areas of alcamo. If I was visiting the north west of Sicily again, I'd definitely stay here.
