The host Caterina was very hospitable! She greeted us with fresh pastries and left a bottle of red wine at the house for us! The location was good for our visits to Erice, San Vito lo Capo, Marsala and Trapani.

The best part of our stay was the attentiveness of our host, Catarina who did everything possible to make our stay memorable. The house was well equipped for cooking meals but we also had access to good restaurants. We found people that we met very helpful. We could walk to a local beach but others were available by car. Lots of tourist sites nearby.

Hello dear friend, thank you very much for your wonderful review, it was an honor for me to meet you and host you in my home. Best regards to you, your family and your friends from Caterina and Francesco
Caterina was available for any questions and met my party at the property. Property was just as in picture and absolutely beautiful. Caterina provided little extras and was awesome in her knowledge of the area and helped with vehicle hire. Mr Vario and his family were amazing. It was necessary to hire car and My Vario delivered and transported my group from Palermo airport. What a wonderful experience. Caterina was always available for questions and quick responses.
We were looking for a spot to stay a few days close-to but not in San Vito Lo capo and found this gem! Super clean and comfortable house, perfect for some nice relax evenings after a day of exploring the area (the outdoor kitchen always a hit!) . The view of the mountains from the house beats San Vito’s hands down ;) We regret not spending more time as there is so much to visit in the area . Catherina was warm and welcoming and provided a lot of information to make sure our stay was enjoyable. she gave us a lot of good references for various food and local attractions. Definitely recommend!

Hello my dear friends,

I hope to see you again for another holiday.
A big sincere hug to your beautiful family from Caterina and family
Dear Caterina & Francesco and kitties,Our two week honeymoon at your beautiful villa has been incredible. Coming in after such a long trip to your hospitality with the goodies and wine (which we definitely bought more of the wine and baked goods, as they were incredibly delish) was an absolute treat. This was our first big trip together, and i must say it did not dissappoint, being away from the bigger cities but still close enough to visit them was absolutely ideal. We enjoyed visiting Erice, Sailing in Trapani and visiting archeological sites in Agrigento and Syracuse. Seeing Mount Etna in Catania was great, but for those who don't like crazy driving and packed streets we wouldn't recommend going into actual downtown Catania.For local spots we loved eating at ristorante pizze e cassatelle and ristorante baia cornino, they were so welcoming and the food and drinks were incredible. But the highlight of this entire trip was the cats that hang around! They are so gentle and sweet. There's a little family that hangs around and lounges, they don’t bother you at all and kind of just do their own thing, but they are very entertaining to watch! We will definitely be recommending this villa to whoever will listen!

A beautiful home from home with a lovely outdoor space
Catarina met us at the property and showed us around the house.
Communication before and throughout our stay was fantastic, she was quick to respond to any questions.
The house itself is positioned at elevation overlooking the beach of Cornino and the mountains that surround it. We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the terrace and from one of the bars along the shore front.
Can recommend Arte pizza for a great selection of pizzas and some pasta dishes.
Tribe bar for sunset views over the beach.
We loved the outdoor space so much and spent much of our time there when we were at home.
The house is very comfortable, a real home from home with everything you would need (and more) for your stay, and air conditioning units in every room which was much needed!
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and would happily stay again if we return to the area.

Hi Julie, thank you so much for the wonderful review, it was an honor for me and my family to meet you and host you. I hope to see you again soon for another holiday. Kind regards from your Sicilian friends
We were so fortunate with our choice of villa. Caterina is the most welcoming of all hosts we have met. Not only did she meet us at the villa but also brought a variety of sweet and savoury delights with her for when we arrived. Caterina had also supplied us with a raft of information prior to our arrival to help plan our visit.
The villa is in an excellent location for visiting the west side of Sicily with easy access for Trapani, Segesta, Erice, the local nature reserve and Capo San Vito.
The villa is very well equipped and the garden is beautifully maintained. As it was very hot when we visited the afternoon dip in the outside cold tub was a welcome relief after our daily excursions.
We would highly recommend the villa and would stay again if we returned to this area of Sicily.

Hello dear Diane, thank you so much for the wonderful review, for me and my family it was an honor to meet you and host you.
A sincere hug from Caterina and family
The villa is located at the edge of the town of Custonaci close to Mount Cofano. The surrounding area is outstanding with the sea close at hand (great beaches), the nature reserve of Mount Cofano and easy access to Trapini and Erice. The villa is ideally located to visit Castellemare del Golfo, San Vito Lo Capo, the temple of Segesta, Trapini, Erice and Marsala.
The Villa is very modern and comfortable. The kitchen and living room are on the main floor and the bedrooms are down one flight of stairs. The patio and yard are nicer than the pictures and a great place to relax after a day of touring.
However as good as all of that is, the best part are the hosts, Caterina and Franscesco. Caterina will do anything to help make your stay at the Villa and the area as good as it can be. She is a wealth of knowledge and is eager to help guide you to the destinations, shopping and restaurants. We have stayed at many great VRBO's over the years and Caterina is the best host we have had the pleasure to know. We came as honored guests and left as friends. We hope to be back.

Caterina ist eine herausragende Gastgeberin und die Kommunikation mit Caterina war völlig unkompliziert und direkt. Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und super ausgestattet. Der Aussenbereich ist wunderschön und man kann super entspannen. Besonders im Whirlpool! Die Aussenküche ist sensationell und wir haben jeden Abend frischen Fisch von lokalen Fischhändler oder ein saftiges Steak gegrillt. Zum schönen Strand sind es nur 10 Minuten zu Fuß und man kann schöne Wanderungen von Haus aus unternehmen oder nach Trapani/Salzgewinnung fahren. Absolut empfehlenswert!!!
Wir hatte einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt. Das Haus war sehr sauber und es gibt alles was man braucht. Wir haben oben auf dem ausklappbaren Sofa geschlafen weil wir unbedingt aus dem Bett die schöne Aussicht auf das Meer und den Monte Cofano haben wollten. Im Sommer sind die Schlafzimmer im Keller aber bestimmt angenehm kühl. Die Vermieterin war super nett und hat uns mit sizilianischen Spezialitäten begrüßt. Ich kann einen Aufenthalt absolut weiterempfehlen. Vielen Dank für alles Caterina!

hôte exceptionnel ( d’une grande gentillesse et très généreuse)
Catarina nous avait préparé le repas à notre arrivée
Et nous avons eu la chance de gouter a ses délicieuses pizzas qu’elle nous a amené avec gentillesse
Bon plan pour location de bateau
Je recommande cette location sans hésitation, qui correspond tout à fait à l’annonce
Maison très propre, très confortable
La location correspond tout à fait au descriptif de l'annonce et aux photos . Une villa superbe avec un extérieur magnifique , très bien entretenu et propre avec tous le neccessaire pour passer d'agréable vacances.Que dire de l'accueil de Caterina et Francesco tellement ils sont gentils, accueillants, bien veillants et aux petits soins pour les locataires. Le 1er jour nous sommes arrivés très tard ( 22h30) car notre ferry avait du retard, ils nous avaient prévu un repas (des spécialités délicieuses) et des boissons.
Grace à tous leurs renseignements nous avons visiter la région, manger dans des endroits sympa et même fait une journée en bateau privé. Caterina répondait tout de suite à nos demandes et faisait même le traducteur lorsque nous avions des difficultés à nous faire comprendre. Un grand merci à tous les deux et au plaisir de revenir chez vous
