Everything was amazing for our stay. We stayed here during our wedding trip to Castellanmare with our family. The accommodation was very spacious, had great amenities and was in a great location, walking distance from town centre. The views were great and the pool and barbeque were great to have. Our host Paola was super friendly and helpful throughout and made everything very easy. I hope I have the chance to stay again in future.
The pool is definitely the highlight. Deep enough to swim, shallow enough for 6 year olds to safely stand. And you have to climb up into it, so now safety issues. Perfectly clean. Location excellent. 10 minute walk to town with lots of restaurants. Property had everything you need.
Great villa, pool and gardens. Perfectly presented. Good communication and a smooth transfer and check in/out process. Panoramic sea views and 15 mins walk to town and beach.
We had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed our time here! The villa was spacious and perfect for our large group, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We appreciated the thoughtful treats waiting for us in the refrigerator.The views were absolutely breathtaking, and we loved spending time in the beautiful common areas and relaxing outdoor seating spaces. There was plenty of room for everyone to gather or unwind.We only wish we could have stayed longer than five days! Communication with Paola was seamless, and she was incredibly helpful in arranging a transfer we needed. Giorgio welcomed us at the villa and was such a charming and helpful gentleman—it made us feel right at home from the start.

Dear Jennifer, Thank you for your wonderful review on villa del Golfo. I am very happy that you enjoyed your staying in Castellammare and that Giorgio did his best to show his Sicilian Hospitality
Too bad I couldn't meet you, probably some other time when you will return with the children a little older. Wishing you a great summer! Warmest regards, Paola
The property was perfect for our group. The pool was a very nice touch , especially during the hot July month. Paola was great, to receive us and walk us thru the property. All in all, great experience.

Thank you for your kind review! all the best! Paola
Ciao Andrea and friends!
Thank you for the positive review, but most of all for having been respectful to my house! You were such a lovely group! all the best!
Paola
We loved our stay in this villa, the house was lovely and the outdoor space was amazing. The only downside was the walk from the villa to the main part of town, which, although short, was down a really not nice alley and steps that felt unsafe
Amazing villa with stunning views. Lovely terrace and pool area that you will never want to leave. Comfortable beds and fully equipped kitchen. Owners are very friendly and brought us treats throughout the holiday. We would love to return. Castellamare Del Golfo is a beautiful area. 10 minutes walk to centre and 20 mins walk to beach.

Ciao cara,
Thank you for your kind positive review on Villa del Golfo.
I am very happy that your group enjoyed Castellammare and you brought home great memories! All the best to you and to everyone in your party.!!!
We had a great time playing games, cooking meals, walking around town, and took some car trips. Host Paulo and Giorgio were great. Fresh lemonaid every day.
We enjoyed this beautiful villa very much. Paola was a wonderful hostess who showed us around, made food for us and helped book activities like a boat trip. The villa is big and has a very nice garden with pool and tables. In the village Castellamare and espicially at the marina are nice restaurants and bars where we enjoyed ourselves. Everything (beach, marina, supermarket) is within walking distance. We would love to go back one day!
I had a wonderful stay in the villa with 5 friends of mine for a birthday celebration/reunion. The villa was great in terms of spaciousness, cleanliness and location - the pool and gardens were wonderful, providing much needed shade and refreshing swims when the weather was hot. The location was great with it being within walking distance of the town but yet very peaceful & not disturbed by noise at all. The host, Paola, was excellent and easily contactable for any questions we had and kindly assisted with airport transfer arrangements too.
I would highly recommend the villa for family/friend groups looking for somewhere to relax, reconnect and holiday.
With seven bedrooms, two kitchens, a pool, balconies and extra spaces galore, you'll have a wonderful time in this spacious villa. The owner and property manager and gardener were so sweet and welcoming. Note, it's up on a hill so you have to go down and up as you go in and out of town. Highly recommend for large groups - our group of four adults and two children had plenty of room and could have easily fitted more. Grazie, Paola and Fio!
Paola’s house is huge . It’s a bit difficult to find with google and located in an odd neighborhood, but
Once you figure it out , it’s well worth the effort.
The outside area with newer pool and ocean views north toward Punta raisa is super. Access to the main part of town, harbor and city beach is a 10 minute walk down the hill.
Parking at the house is inside the fence and extensive. PMO airport is an easy 30 minute freeway drive which makes it great for large groups to come and go from sicily.

Dear Michael,
Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience when staying at Villa Del Golfo. We appreciate it and we look forward to welcome you back in the near future. All the best! Paola
Paola is a lovely person and an attentive owner. She responded quickly to messages and was very welcoming. The villa was very nice and comfortable, still feeling very roomy even with seven of us. The pool is nice, the grounds are pretty and well-maintained, the views are lovely, and it's easy to walk into town. The one issue we had was that the hot water disappeared twice in the four days we were there. Paola was quick to send someone to fix it both times when she saw our messages, but in the end, we had hot water for just half our stay. Other than that, however, we were very happy with our time in Castellamare, and again, Paola is a wonderful person.

Dear Kenneth,
I am glad you enjoyed your stay at Villa del Golfo and I appreciated your patience in dealing with the hot water issue. The unit has been replaced, so we are not dealing with the same problem again.
Thank you for your review. Warm regards to your lovely family!

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. The villa was large and airy with plenty of bedrooms (all with air conditioning) and bathrooms for the nine of us. The swimming pool was perfect and many enjoyable hours were spent in it! The villa is in an ideal location for exporing Sicily. Paula was so kind and helpful whenever we needed anything. A high wind caused the electricity to the villa to go off one night at 11pm. Paula had people round immediately to look at the fault. It was discovered to be an outside cable that had broken the electricity suppliers had it fixed by 9am the next day ( a Sunday!).
This was a great location for our group of 8! We had the whole house which was a ton of space for us. Easy from the airport and had some great day trips to San Vito lo capo, Erice/Trapani, zingaro and Palermo. Tons of great restaurants right in Castellemare. The outdoor space at the house was great - we spent a lot of time on the patio! Overall the house was comfortable and functional. The indoor furniture wasn’t super comfortable but we made it work when we needed it! We felt the beds could use a little upgrade - mattresses and bedding. There were towels available but most seemed like pool towels - only a few bath towels. The bathrooms were very nice! I think my personal favorite thing was the freshly pressed olive oil that Paola left for us - so delicious! Paola was very communicative and helpful when we had questions. It is a little bit of a funky house, but really when you go to Sicily you aren’t hanging around the house - too much exploring to do! So it was fine for our needs. Hope to return to castellemare del golfo one day!
Beautiful 7 bedrooms villa, very spacious as well as the garden. Well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. No need to buy any soaps, shampoo or any practical items one needs( foil paper, cling films, dishwasher soap, salt, herbs & spices etc). Plenty of parking spaces, we needed only two but could fit another 6 cars. Very well situated, walking distance from marina, beach and shops. Communication with the owner, Paola, was easy and questions answered quickly. This was more than just a rented villa it was a magnificent experience! Paola and Camillo welcomed us all very warmly like we were family. Paola prepared a delicious typical Sicilian meal for us upon our arrival. Much appreciated after a long journey. Paola also helped us to celebrate a special birthday that was out of this world…. A whole day visiting Segesta and her farm where friends were waiting for us with ever so good food and even a singer & photographer. Thank you ever so much Paola! Grazie mille for making this birthday a memorable one! Much appreciated it. We loved our stay at Villa del Golfo so much and definitely highly recommend it to our friends and family.
Les promesses sont tenues, grand jardin arboré et coloré très agréable, une vue imprenable sur la mer, et des espaces de vie assez grands pour profiter sans se gêner dans cette grande maison. PArfait pour une grande famille ou un groupe d'amis. Au plaisir !!

Die „Villa“ ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, es wären einige Unterhaltsarbeiten notwendig.Die Schränke konnten wir nicht benutzen, die waren bereits mit Gerümpel gefüllt.Dafür wurden wir von einem freundlichen, älteren Paar in Empfang genommen, das uns typische Sizilianische Speisen gekauft hat, der Kassenzettel lag auch dabei.
Wir waren Anfang August in der Villa del Golfo zu Gast, und waren positif überrascht. Sehr viel Platz, wir waren mit 5 Erwachsenen, 2 teenager und 2 kleinen Hunden da. Traumhafter Ausblick von den verschiedenen terassen und vom sehr schönen Garten aus. Gepflegter Pool mit Poolhouse. Man sollte relatief gut zu Fuß sein, kleiner Supermarkt, Restaurants und der Strand sind dann gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Und einer sehr freundlichen Gastgeberin. Vielen Dank Paolo....
Es war super.Der Aussenbereich mit dem Pool und der Aussicht auf das Meer war perfekt.Paola war sehr nett und hilfsbereit.Top Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis.Auch vom Ort selber und den Leuten können wir nur gutes erzählen.Es war eine wunderschöne Woche.Vielen Dank Paola
Alles wat je wilt in een vakantie kun je hier vinden. Grote schone accommodatie, mooi uitzicht, prima slaapplaatsen, heerlijk uitzicht, dichtbij het centrum, rustig gelegen. Een aanrader voor grotere groepen of families.
Jag bokade för min familj barn o barnbarn för att fira min födelsedag. Huset är fantastiskt stort o fräschare än vad som visas i bilder på nätet. Discrum var
Es war alles super. Vom Check-In bis zum Check-Out ohne Probleme. Leider waren einige unserer Koffer im Flugzeug verloren gegangen, aber unsere Vermietern war so nett und versorgte uns direkt mit Duschbad, Zahnbürste, Windeln usw. Was wirklich super lieb war. Ansonsten kann ich vor allem die Aussicht und den Pool hervorheben. Es war traumhaft. Die Stadt generell ist sehr schön.
