Villa delle Palme is a lovely house. It is spacious, practical with everything in perfect working order. There is a huge garden full of lemons, oranges, figs and huge palm trees. Any problem we had was quickly resolved by the local caretaker.
Casteldaccia is a lively town full of good food shops, excellent pasticceria! (just across the street), countless bread bakers, green grocers, two supermarkets etc. There are also a few restaurants and pizzerias. The house is located in walking distance from many shops.
Inside the house, everything feels quiet and calm, despite its central location on the main street.
Casteldaccia is a good starting point for excursions to Palermo and around Sicily as it is right next to the motorway. There is a station in town but you definitely need a car.
