I would recommend this place to ANYONE who wants a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of Palermo. Santa Flavia is a quiet town with a lot of heart. Easily accessed by the train (20 mins and 2.50 Euro from Palermo) this place is fabulous. The hosts are gracious and communicative and the place itself is spacious with WONDERFUL views of the sea. We spent both nights on the terrace with cheese and meats from the local grocery store watching the sun set over the ocean. There are delicious and affordable restaurants nearby and many beaches within walking distance. I cannot recommend this place enough! PS the hosts are very helpful and drove us to the train station when we left!
