Location: Perfect for the Valley of the Temples, it’s a very short car journey away or could be walked. It’s a quiet neighbourhood and the apartment is not overlooked which gives amazing views of the temples in the distance. There is a large enough balcony to enjoy this.
We struggled to find the apartment but our host very kindly met us nearby and escorted us in. Much appreciated. We parked directly outside the front door to the apartments. Free parking. The Turkish stairs were also only a 20 minute drive away.
The Space: We had use of the whole apartment. Its large, very clean and smells really nice. The bedroom is huge, a fully equipped kitchen and the shower was great. There is also a second bedroom.
Communication: This was prompt and very helpful throughout. We were travelling by car around Sicily so this was particularly helpful as our plans were constantly changing. We were shown around the apartment at the start of our stay and although the lady didn’t speak English and we don’t speak Italian, it went very well. Clearly a well rehearsed routine that worked to our advantage.
Restaurant tip: Literally a 2 minute walk away is an amazing restaurant called Agrigento Akropolis. We ate outside with views over the temples. It wasn’t cheap but reasonably priced with superb service. Our best culinary experience so far on our trip. Also the best Tuna we’ve ever had!
