The Villa was absolutely beautiful. Immaculate. Great place for family gathering.

My family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful Villa with stunning views of the sea. We could not have picked a nicer place to celebrate my parent's 60th wedding anniversary. The owners of the Villa made you feel like family. They are so warm and friendly and made our stay very special. When we arrived, the family greeted us with a welcome basket and a bottle of champagne for my parent's anniversary. They even gave us beautiful gifts when we left. The Villa was immaculate with beautiful furnishings. Everything was in working order. The veranda was nice for dining outside and enjoying the warm evenings. I can't wait to return to see our new extended family !

Beautiful villa near Terrasini

A lovely villa with beautiful grounds and views. Roberta was most helpful guiding us there and showing us around and the welcome pack was lovely. Ideal for a large family or group of friends as there's plenty of indoor and outdoor space including a wonderful barbeque area and plenty of parking. Quite a few restaurants in nearby Terrasini, our favourite was Arabesque. Good location to visit other resorts too such as Scopello and Zingaro, conveniently close to the airport (but you didn't hear the planes!). Easy drive into Palermo (though parking there wasn't easy). Historic sites of Segenta and Selinunte reasonably close but also worth a longer drive to Agrigento if you're interested in Greek architecture. It's their first year of renting out and judging by the previous comments as well as our own, it should be a very successful venture. Sue & Nigel

Honest feedback

Villa Casa nel Verde was obviously a much loved family home. The whole family were there to greet us and took delight in showing us around on arrival, especially the mother. The villa is spacious with beautiful views. However, we found that the kitchen appliances and equipment, although functional, were rather dated. Some of it was not particularly hygienic. The oven did not work, but we were fine with the BBQ. Unfortunately, our visit was soured by the response we received to a broken chair. As a member of our party sat on it, the wicker work, which must have been brittle, gave way and the seat fell through. It was obviously not fit for purpose and could have caused injury. We pointed this out on the day of departure with an apology, but were very shocked to be charged a significant proportion of the security deposit! In our opinion a highly excessive amount for accidental damage to chair that should not have been set out for use in the first place, especially if it was that precious to the owners. I would not particularly recommend this villa to families with young children as there are many personal ornaments etc. around the house. Finally the electric gates (which all the villas seem to have) failed to work after one day and were not fixed during our stay. This was a little inconvenient, but not too drastic. No apology was given. We understand that this is a recently added rental home. With a few improvements and a more relaxed attitude to mishaps this could be a wonderful holiday home.

Beautiful, well presented villa, lots of outside space and views to die for.

What an amazing Sicilian welcome we received from 5 of the family members, so welcoming and full of pride for their beautiful home. The villa has the most amazing views, perched up on the hill, uninterrupted seaviews to the front and breath taking mountains at the back! The villa is well stocked and we received a welcome pack of basics (bread, cereal, biscuits, water) to get us started. The whole property was incredible clean and well maintained, with the most stunning, sweeping staircase through the middle. The outside balcony had plenty of different furniture to relax on, eat on and the bbq area was ready to go (even though we chose to eat out every night). We didn't have our children with us this time but would definitely think about bringing them, and friends next time, there's was plenty of room. There is no pool with this property, which we missed near the end of the week, but we found a lovely hotel 5 minute drive away that allows you to pay to use there's. Throughly recommend this villa X

Spacious home at a good location

We had a good time in this spacious house. From the large terrace you have a nice view over the sea. Although the motorway is near, it is very quiet because the residential neighbourhood lies quite a bit lower. Terrassini is an agreable holliday town, with lots of nice restaurants, but you will need a car to get there. Palermo is very easy to reach. The house was very cosy, description on the site is accurate. The family did everything they could to make us feel welcome.

Beautiful Panoramic View, BUT….

My family and I stay in villas when traveling simply because we love the convenience of cooking and eating together. The many great reviews encouraged us to book it. However, we’re still scratching our heads as to how/why there are so many of these misleading reviews. Upon check-in, the owners greeted us with an ‘All business- like” attitude. They went over the House Rules, signing of documents, etc. They informed us, very firmly, that we were responsible to remove all garbage from the house upon check-out. The garbage, we were told, could be driven to some location nearby. REALLY? If we did not adhere to this, we would be charged 30 Euros. Wow, we’ve never experienced this and were taken aback by the severe tone set forth during our initial meeting. After settling in, we discovered the following: -the villa is very spacious and has a beautiful terrace with a million dollar view. - the kitchen ( very important for us) was disappointing to say the least. Dark, dingy and not very clean. THE UNANIMOUS DECISION WAS NOT TO USE THE KITCHEN. - the bed linens are cheap and old. Pilled blankets and sheets. - we were given only 1 towel per person for the entire week. - upstairs bathroom smelled of mold/mildew. The bath mat looked like a rag. - sofas need to be replaced…couldn’t sit without sinking Advice to owners: Pay more attention to details. Do some upgrading. We will not be recommending this villa.

Married in Terrasini

The property looks just like the pictures and my family really enjoyed our time at the Villa. The views are amazing and is very close to everything you will need in Terrasini. The owners were very responsive to our questions. The only issue was the WiFi and satellite TV did not really work. To the owners defense we did not mention it until check out. It was a blessing to truly disconnect.

Location,Location!

This older, large, two-story home is a tranquil oasis in which we spent five days of our vacation. Relatively close to the Palermo airport, (and airport car rentals,) the home is located in a quiet, well-established, residential area of similar homes. The grounds of the property are spacious and the South patio affords a wonderful view of the gulf and far shore line. Nicely furnished, kitchen well-equipped, and beds are comfortable. When I return to the Palermo area I will make sure to stay here once again. The only caveat I would offer is to make sure you have a working GPS which is a necessity for locating most of not all accommodations outside of big cities.

Classic Italian Villa

My husband's Italian review: Gli otto di noi siamo stati in questa casa per una settimana. Ha una buona posizione a Terrisini e lo shopping. . C'era un sacco di spazio per tutti. I letti erano molto confortevoli per tutti. Tutte le camere ei bagni erano molto pulite. C'è una cucina con tutto per cucinare una grande cena. Da un tavolo all'aperto sul balcone abbiamo sperimentato i bellissimi tramonti durante la cena. I padroni di casa sono molto gentili e li abbiamo visti solo il giorno in cui siamo arrivati e il giorno in cui siamo partiti. Non c'erano problemi con nulla a casa. C'è un sacco di parcheggio per diverse auto. Avevamo ne tre. Consiglio vivamente questa bellissima casa.

Beautiful property

My sisters and I stayed (4 of of us) stayed at this beautiful property. The outdoor space is amazing with a large balcony that wraps around the house and this is by far the best feature of the home. The inside of the house is well laid out as well with four bedrooms - although we only used two of them for our stay and two full bathrooms. The kitchen is a nice size with lots of counter space. It could use a few minor updates but overall I would definitely recommend this home while visiting Sicily. We were able to communicate with Fabrizio through Whats App if we had any issues. Thank you Fabrizio and family for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

Truly a beautiful house

The house and the garden is very spacious and original. It has the most amazing terrace, you will have breakfasts you remember a livetime! and an indoor fireplace plus gas heaters that were perfect for cold spring evenings. Fabrizio and his family were very welcoming and generous and always reachable through WhatsApp . We think this is the "real" Sicily experience, because it is the old summer house of the family, still with the private furniture and many little details, which makes an atmosphere like home, we prefer it much over a sterile hotel just for tourist. AC, WiFi, everything was working, we could even do Home-Office from there. And our son loooved the garden. We felt very safe, it is a quiet neighborhood. You don't even hear the autostrada that goes behind the house (which we were afraid of being loud beforehand). Palermo, scopello, castellammare del golfo, hot springs, everything is around the corner, but having a car is definitely a big advantage! We appreciated very much and recommend to all our friends and family:)

Si può e si deve fare di più

La villa ha una splendida vista e ottimi spazi comuni che rendono piacevole il soggiorno. Ci sono però alcuni disservizi riscontrati quali: tutti i materassi sono da cambiare assolutamente, pentole troppo vecchie, area barbecue senza illuminazione, troppe formiche che evidenzia la mancata disinfestazione. La villa ha un potenziale enorme, basterebbe semplicemente fare una buona manutenzione ordinaria e straordinaria.

A Spectacular Villa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful villa. The five of us couldn't pull ourselves away from the terrace and spectacular view of the ocean and surrounding area! The pictures of the house are accurate. It was a quiet location despite being close to the autostrada. The sounds heard were birds and farm animals. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with all having wonderful views and a little balcony too. The kitchen was equipped with all the things we needed to make meals. The villa was like sharing a part of the owner"s family home since it was decorated in such a warm and rich way. The whole family met us upon arrival. Their English is limited, but adequate for us to understand their directions.The family left us a very generous gift basket of food to help us out on our first night. The whole family also all came upon departure, where we took pictures and hugged goodbye. The location couldn't have been better, 15 minutes to the airport, and a very short drive to the center of Terrasini, grocery stores and gas stations. We absolutely would stay there again.
