Classy and characterful

We really enjoyed staying in this house. The location is ideal for touring the local region. The house itself is full of character and charm, with unique features such as wooden blinds and ironwork. It was very well clean and well-maintained, and it was really airy and spacious. We were able to walk to the nearby restaurant with same name as the house, just up the hill, and that was excellent as well. There are beautiful views of the sea and the nearest beach (no sand-just stones) was a short walk away, although across a busy road. The owners were charming and helpful so I would recommend this house to anyone visiting this part of Sicily.

Attractive, well appointed villa

We chose the property because we didn't want to hire a car and we could get there from the airport using public transport. The description was very attractive and the villa lived up to our expectations. It was spacious and well appointed and the garden and patio were lovely. The station a ten minute walk away meant we could easily get to Palermo and Termini and with a change at Termini also to Cefalu.Trabia centre was a 5 minute walk away, where the choice of shops for buying food was good, and there was a market on Mondays. The locals are very friendly and greeted us every time we passed. Maria is incredibly welcoming and helpful. She pointed out the best shops for meat and fish. As we had no car, lifts were offered, into Termini for example. We sampled the families olives and pomegranates. The choice of eating out in the evening in Trabia is limited but fortunately the local taverna up the lane from the villa proved to be very good and very friendly. With a car, obviously Termini offers a wider choice. We wanted a quiet retreat to read and write and not particularly to do the tourist thing.We found the perfect space.

Lovely house!

we had a fantastic week there, from the house we could see the beautiful view of Sicily. We felt such as in our sweet home. The owners took care of us. If it is possible we will come back there again!

The Villa was comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at the Villa, Maria the owner was very helpful and had plenty of recommendations and information about points of interest to visit while we were there. We did not have a car so it was a 15 minute walk to the train station, up and down hills, and along side of a main road. Probably if small children will be staying there you would definitely need a car.

About the host

Hosted by Maria Ciofalo

I'm a teacher and a touristic guide in Sicily. I like travelling and hosting. Thanks to hospitality in my countryhome I meet very interesting people from different countries and cultures and they are all and always welcome! My guests like sustainability as I do and help us to protect the local community by globalization, preserving the Mediterranean traditions in food, events, gardens, art and crafts.

Why they chose this property

My property was passed down through generations. Ancient family fornitures and modern equippment create a peaceful and warm atmosphere and an ideal place for families, friends or artists who like good life quality, delicious food and fresh sea air.
When my grandgrandfather built this beautiful country house in the nineteenth century, it was used by the family in summer and by the travelers, who need a rest in the way to Palermo or Messina. We do the same now and we still are happy to taste with our guests local high quality extravergine olive oil and good wines.

What makes this property unique

When you arrive, you will fall in love with the internal porch and the bright living room with sight to the coast.
This Villa is the right one if you want to live as Sicilian gentry do, having the suggestions of local people and meet them too, cooking together or playing cards or going to the local concerts and theaters.
