Excellent place to stay.

Excellent apartment with a beautiful view. The pool looked really beautiful but it was a bit too cold for me in October. The pool area is lovely for a cocktail. The apartment was large, clean and well furnished. It's a bit far from the town, a car is required and be careful as the road around is not in the best condition, drive slowly and carefully.

Idyllic hotel for family holiday.

This hotel was amazing. The staff couldn’t do enough to help out, nothing was too much. The value for money is unbelievable. It’s a beautiful setting and a great point to use for exploring the island. The town of Balestrate was also a great base with many good restaurants and shops and friendly people.

It could be our second home

We had a fabulous time at the Residence Villaggio Petruso. The hotel is located on the hill with magnificent view and away from any trafic. The one bedroom apartment we stayed has separate access so no one is hanging around your door. The doors and windows are sound proof as you cannot hear outside noise. The food is delicious and there is a great choice for anyone. The service provided by staff is exceptional. Genuinely polite staff who is happy to help you with anything e.g. despite the fact we took charges and plugs to charge our phones, our plugs didn’t fit the sockets installed in the room, the lady from the reception let us use hers without extra charge for the whole stay. The waitress Lorena was very helpful in giving us insight to local lifestyle and advice on places to see. She even taught us a few phrases in Italian.

Overall a very good stay

Spacious flat, quite clean, nice view from the terrace. Air conditioning in all rooms, albeit I found it far too noisy to sleep with. lovely pool with amazing views of the bay and sunset. The resort is quite high up, and you will need a rental car but on the positive, the location grants a constant fresh breeze from the sea. Dining outside is just pleasant without the stickiness and exceeds heat. The restaurant has prices identical to what you would pay in Balestrate. Dishes are mainly based on fish, with delicious local cuisine. For some reason we found that second courses were more generous portions than mains... The pasta dishes were adequate but could have done with a little more. The biggest bug bear is the internet. Inexplicably limited to 5 hours per day (?) and generally really slow and unreliable. You might have to wait to post your photos once you're back, and watching the news/YouTube is a painful experience.

Lovely family friendly hotel

We had a fantastic week at Villagio Petruso. The apartment was modern, clean and comfortable. The pool area is great with lovely views and a play area for children. The staff were wonderful and accommodated every request for help or information. It provides a good location for sightseeing but you do require a car to get to Balestrate or the nearest beach. Would highly recommend it.

Spacious, comfortable apartment at a budget price

We decided on Sicily for our honeymoon, and booked Villaggio Petruso because of its budget price and also on the basis of reviews here on Expedia as well as other sites. We were not disappointed! We had a one-bedroom apartment which was extremely spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen area had a microwave and four-ring gas hob as well as a full-sized fridge-freezer, and was adequately equipped with enough crockery, cutlery etc for two people. There was a bottle of wine, mineral water and soft drinks in the fridge on our arrival which was very welcome. The bathroom was very large, with a walk-in shower, and the bedroom was also big with plenty of wardrobe and storage space as well as air conditioning. We had our own covered terrace area with a table and four seats. The complex has a large and very pleasant pool area with loungers, seats and tables, and a licensed café which doubles as a restaurant in the evenings - prices are reasonable. The staff were uniformly excellent and couldn't have been more helpful in sorting out various problems, assisting with airport transfers, car hire etc. A car is essential here as the complex, although not far from the town of Balestrate, is remote and at the end of a steep, unlit, narrow lane which would make walking back from town uncomfortable (particularly at night). There is no shop on site although bakers and fruit/veg vans do call every morning.

Great hotel close to the beach

Great facilities, very friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms, amazing pool with a view over the sea, definitely worth eating dinner at the hotel restaurant as it was fresh and high standard, 20 minutes walking distance to the town but cheap taxi services available, no supermarket nearby but fruit and bread can be purchased daily. All in all we had such a great time and would definitely come back.

A complex of apartments in a quiet area

The staff were delightful - they were very friendly and helpful. All the basic amenities were available. We booked a 2-bedroom apartment and were given a lovely, quiet corner plot overlooking the sea. We had the independence that an apartment offers with the additional convenience of a restaurant, bar, reception and swimming pool. Perfect!

Peaceful Holiday

Our accomodation was clean and tidy, basic and a little worn. The staff friendly and very courteous. The pool area was clean. Although courtesy transport is available I consider a car to be a must if you want to enjoy the area fully. The beach is a trek away and the local town Balestrate is also a 30 minute walk. Residence Villaggio Petruso location was difficult to find, however once we reached Balestrate and rang the hotel a member of staff did come to town and guide us to the Residence. The upside was a peaceful location in the hillside with views of the sea and great for sunset photo's. Restaurants in Balestrate were both good quality and value for money, and particularly good if you enjoy seafood! We enjoyed our stay as a short break - A peaceful holiday resort if you want to wind down!
