About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Relax with pool and see view!

The house is in the territory of Altavilla Milicia, a few kilometres away from Palermo and Monreale architectonic beauties (25km), along the coast that, passing through characteristic seaside villages such as Porticello, S. Elia, S. Nicola l’Arena and the evocative Punic ruins in Solunto, shows the prestigious and ancient villas of Bagheria (10km), and leads to the renowned Norman town of Cefalù (50km). 'Altavilla'offers you an absolute relax stay in a delicious and wide apartmnent, in my parents' villa, very well furnished in each detail, surrounded on greenery, with a splendid terrace with swimming-pool overlooking the sea, dominated by an ancient Norman tower.Just outside the apartment, a lovely terrace of 30 sqm with garden, the pool and the sea view. The pool measures 6X12mt, and is shared with me, my parents (we use it very little) and my sister's family (4 people: my nephews use more often the pool, my sister and my brother-in law a lot less) that has a house 60 mt far from the apartment. We have two dogs, affectionate and playful that, in presence of guests, are not free to wander around the property and are in spaces dedicated to them. The beach is about 1.5 km far, bar, market medium sized, banks, restaurants, pharmacy, post office and emergency medical service, are 3.5 km. Also, for those who wish, in the near fishing village of St. Nicola l'Arena you can rent boats with or without a driver for a tour of the suggestive coast which is in front of our house.
The property has free and unlimited wireless Internet connection.

If you're looking for R&R... you'll find it here.
Our family stayed in this home for our second week of vacation after having stayed a fantastic and intense week in Rome. We were looking for a place to kickback, rest, relax and recharge. We were not disappointed in this fairly remote location. The rental property is far enough away from the intensity of Palermo (but still close enough to easily day trip there), while also being close to the coastline and to several beautiful beaches (including Cefalu). The rental is part of a larger well maintained and landscaped family property with several houses in proximity to each other. Giuseppe (the property manager) is very friendly, attentive, speaks English and provided us with useful information on nearby attractions and restaurants. The property is on a hillside overlooking the ocean. There is a large clean pool with a spacious sunny deck that our family looked forward to hanging out on after a day of exploring the coastline or the surrounding mountains. The property is quiet and I found myself torn between turning my deck chair to face the ocean or the dramatic mountainside behind the property. Either way it was a win win. After a week here we left reluctantly but were rested and ready to return to reality. Cheers

Relaxing villa with amazing host
We've just spent a very relaxing 10 days here. Giuseppe was a fantastic host and extremely helpful from start to finish. He provided lots of really good suggestions for places to eat and visit. The villa is homely and very peaceful but you really do need a car.

A tranquil haven
We spent five days in this peaceful setting. Guiseppe extends a very warm welcome to his guests and you are soon settled into the lovely, well appointed, spacious appartment. Between the shady terrance and the swimming pool we spent many happy hours. The views of the sea and mountains are wonderful. Easy access by car to nearby shops and cafes. The fishing village of Puntacello is well worth a visit. Palermo is only a 35 minute train journey away from the local station which is only a 10 minute drive away, although leave enough time to walk to the nearby cafe to buy the train ticket. Trains run every hour. We look forward to our return trip.

Casa con panorama bellissimo e piscina per relax
Vacanza in famiglia con due ragazzini di 9 e 11 anni null'ultima settimana di giugno e la prima di luglio in questa casa che si trova al piano inferiore di un'unica unità la cui parte superiore è utilizzata dai proprietari che però durante il nostro soggiorno non c'erano. L'alloggio è piuttosto funzionale, anche se un pò datato, immerso in uno splendido contesto di verde e con la piscina che si apre ad un panorama meraviglioso. La proprietà, così come la piscina, è condivisa con gli eventuali ospiti di un'altra casa presente all'interno della stessa ma la vegetazione e le eque distanze garantiscono comunque un'adeguata privacy e tranquillità. Bisogna necessariamente avere una macchina perché la casa si trova in collina e le località marine e non da visitare e provare sono comunque tante. Il proprietario, Giuseppe, è davvero gentile e disponibile. All'arrivo ci ha fatto trovare l'appartamento perfettamente in ordine con tutto ciò che era previsto e anche delle bottiglie d'acqua in frigo. Potete sicuramente affidarvi a lui per qualsiasi necessità perché aiuta davvero in tutto: sia da quello che serve o non va nella struttura fino a consigli su cosa visitare, dove andare a mangiare o negozi di cui si può avere bisogno.

Situation calme pour ce logement entouré d'oliviers et de citronniers. Belle piscine avec vue sur la mer. A proximité de l'itinéraire Cefalu - Palerme -qui est facilement accessible en train-. Accueil sympathique et attentionné de Giuseppe. (loué du 5 au 8 juin 2019 - Both J.Pierre & Solange

Wunderbare Erfahrung
Wir waren zu dritt 21 Tage im Ferienhaus.Meine Frau die jüngste Tochter und ich fühlten uns vom Zeitpunkt der Begrüßung wohl in dieser Umgebung. Sehr nützlich im Haus war der portable Wärmestrahler in den ersten Tagen des Aprils, da besonders in den Abendstunden die Temperaturen im Haus merklich abkühlten. Wie zugesagt, war der Pool geöffnet. Nach den ersten Sonnentagen stieg auch die Wassertemperatur an. Wir verbrachten unsere Ruhezeiten dann am und im Pool immer dann sobald die Sonne schien. Gepflegt und gesäubert wurde der Pool über die gesamte Zeit von Giuseppe selbst.Über Whatts App mit ihm verbunden konnten wir alle Anliegen und Wünsche in Englisch vorbringen , die dann zu unserer Zufriedenheit gelöst bzw. erfüllt wurden. Der Blick aufs Meer( von den Fewo- Fotos vorher bekannt) ist von der Terasse und vom Pool in Natur noch viel schöner, sobald das italienische Licht ( il sole ) da ist. Wir waren hierher gekommen um Palermo und die nähere Umgebung kennen zu lernen.Nach dem zweiten ganzen Tag in Palermo ( mit dem Auto hin und zurück sowie in der City gefahren ) gab Giuseppe uns den Tip den Zug von Altavilla Milicia bis Palermo das nächste Mal zu nehmen.Klappte dann auch wirklich gut. Kann ich jedem Besucher nur empfehlen es ebenso zu tun, aufgrund des unbeschreiblichen dichten Verkehrs dort. So sind die drei Wochen in denen wir weitere Ziele nahe am Meer, sowie auch innerhalb Siziliens besuchten schnell vergangen. Nochmals herzlichen Dank an Giuseppe für die liebenswerte Betreuung in und an diesem herrlichen Platz der Welt. .veröffentlicht Mai 2019

Excellent hôte, location et séjour ! Je recommande fortement !
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour ! Giuseppe est un hôte au top ! Au moindre petit problème que nous rencontrions (personnel, en dehors de la location) il était là pour nous aider. Il nous a donné énormément de conseils et d’adresses afin que notre séjour se passe au mieux. L’annonce tient ses promesses, les photos sont très réalistes, aucune surprise en arrivant si ce n’est la beauté du lieu. La piscine est entretenue, la maison est grande et très bien équipée ! Nous étions 4 étudiants et une voiture est plus que conseillée pour se déplacer facilement (valable pour toute la Sicile) Giuseppe est attentionné et très arrangeant avec ses invités. Nous recommandons les yeux fermés ! We had an excellent stay! Giuseppe is a host at the top! At the slightest problem we encountered (personal, outside the rental) he was there to help us. He gave us a lot of advice and addresses so that our stay went well. The announcement keeps its promises, the photos are very realistic, no surprise when arriving except the beauty of the place. The pool is maintained, the house is large and very well equipped! We were 4 students and a car is more than recommended to move easily (valid for all Sicily) Giuseppe is attentive and very accommodating with his guests. We recommend closed eyes!

Mooi huis met prachtig uitzicht
Een mooi huis in de bergen. Hierdoor prachtig uitzicht met in de verte de zee. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. Prima wifi. Mooi terras in de schaduw. Fijn zwembad met ligbedden. De eigenaar is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Hij heeft allerlei tips voor uitjes en goede restaurants in de buurt. We zouden hier echt voor een tweede keer weer boeken.

Meget venlig vært - roligt sted med meget flot udsigt
Værtenyderst hjælpsom og imødekommende vært. Han havde købt is til børnene ved vores ankomst. Huset ligger i et stille område med fantastisk udsigt fra poolen og en hyggelig terrasse med dejlig skygge. Huset var stort stort og rent og havde alle de faciliteter der var brug for. Aircondition på værelserne, stort køleskab og stort badeværelse med boblebad. Der var rent overalt og værten kom flere gange og gjorde poolen ren. Vi kan varmt anbefale stedet til andre. Det er et fantastisk sted for en børnefamilie.
