Giusi und ihr Sohn haben uns herzlich mit Wein und Obst in der Officina del fabbro empfangen. Das Haus ist ein perfekter Erholungsort für alle die eine moderne Architektur in Verbindung mit historischen Details lieben. Die alte Schmiede wurde mit viel Einfühlungsvermögen restauriert und ein Ortsbezug nicht zuletzt durch die Verwendung lokaler Materialien, Farben und Oberflächen hergestellt. Guisi wohnt nebenan und ist für ihre Gäste jederzeit – für Fragen oder Ausflugstipps – erreichbar. Das beschriebene Angebot sich bekochen oder ein Frühstück servieren zu lassen, sollte man nicht ausschlagen, denn sie ist auch ein perfekte Köchin. Wir können einen Aufenthalt in der Offizina del fabbro nur wärmstens empfehlen.

Die Anreise und der Empfang waren (trotz fehlender Hausnr. am Haus) einfach, unkompliziert und herzlich. Unsere Erwartungen haben sich erfüllt bzw. wurden positiv übertroffen - wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt im Stadthaus bei Giusi

Fünf Sterne für Giusi und ihre Familie. Ein wunderbar und geschmackvoll eingerichtes Haus. Mit Liebe zum Detail restaurierte alte Schmiede, eine gelungene Kombination aus moderner Architektur und alter Bausubstanz. Die Lage in Menfi ebenfalls prima, unkompliziertes Parken vor der Tür, dennoch direkt im Zentrum, zudem viele hilfreiche Tipps ! Jederzeit wieder gerne !:)

Giusi und Ihre Familie haben uns sehr herzlich empfangen und die von Ihrem Mann, Architekt Gaetano umgebaute Schmiede hat uns absolut zugesagt! Wir hatten gesamthaft eine sehr angenehme Zeit in Menfi verbracht und freuen uns auf ein weiteres Mal. Giusi ist die perfekte Gastgeberin, grazie mille per tutto!!!!!!!!!!

Giusi und ihr Sohn waren reizende Gastgeber, super bemüht und herzlich. Das Haus ist wunderschön von Giusis Mann, der Architekt ist, saniert worden. Die Einrichtung und Ausstattung war top, alles vorhanden, alles sauber. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

wir haben den aufenthalt in menfi sehr genossen. das haus entspricht der beschreibung und den bildern - alles sehr schön. es liegt in der nähe des "dorfplatzes" wo die erwachsenen abends einen apero trinken können während die kinder fussballspielen.die einwohner der stadt waren unglaublich nett - wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt!

Giusi hat uns einen perfekten Empfang bereitet, das Haus schöner noch als auf den sehr guten Fotos, mit ortstypischen Materialien ausgestattet, die moderne Architektur gekonnt in die historische Schmiede eingebunden, offen, trotzdem intim. Wir fühlten uns angekommen. Weintrauben und ein hervorragender Weißwein aus Menfi als Willkommengruß sind nur ein Beispiel für die Herzlichkeit, die uns entgegengebracht wurde. Greetings from Florian

Ein Traumhaus, perfekt umgebaut, mit eine sehr stilvolle Einrichtung und sehr nette Gastgeber. Sehr empfehlenswert, auch ohne Terrasse bzw. zentrale Lage in Menfi, kann man sich hier perfekt erholen.

Tolle moderne Wohnung mit Blick zum Meer, die mit allem ausgestattet ist was man braucht. Ganz in der Nähe ist ein schöner Sandstrand. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen!

Liebe Lucia, schon der Empfang war sehr herzlich, und wir haben uns bei dir in den vier Tagen unseres Aufenthalts sehr wohl gefühlt. Dein Haus liegt sehr ruhig in einem kleinen, gepflegten Wohngebiet. Im dem 1-Zimmer-Apartment warteten auf uns zur Begrüßung eine Honigmelone und ein üppiger Strauß Kräuter aus deinem Garten. Das Apartment war sehr nett eingerichtet und blitzsauber. Morgens und abends aßen wir immer im kleinen Garten, schauten aufs Meer und lauschten der Brandung. Die malerische Landschaft rund um Menfi hat uns auch sehr gefallen. Der kleine "Hausstrand", den wir in fünf Minuten zu Fuß hätten erreichen können, hatte leider unter dem Unwetter gelitten, das einige Tage zuvor über Sizilien gezogen war. Aber beim nächsten Mal sieht er bestimmt wieder schön aus! Herzlichen Dank für die angenehme Zeit bei dir! Corinna und Michael

Accueil très agréable. L'appartement est très calme, proche de la mer. Vue superbe de la terrasse.

Lucia is a fantastic host who welcomed me really warmly and took very good care of me. Her house is beautiful and furnished very nicely. I especially want to underline the comfortable bed which according to my experiences, is generally hard to find in holiday homes. The house is located in a beautiful spot, away from noisy streets only a few meters away from the beach. As I stayed there during low season (September) I even had the beach completely to myself! I hope I'll be able to spend another holiday on Sicily soon and if so, I'll definitely will stay again at Lucia's house.

We didn't have satnav or GPS or an accurate map ( I can hear the collective groan from fellow travellers) so we pulled over when we got closer to Lucia's unit and she drove out to meet us and escorted us back. It's a private estate with a mobile number you call to automatically open the main entrance gate. The unit is compact with a clever use of space to fit in all the amenities. Loads of cooking utensils and Lucia left some fresh herbs for us to use. A great view of the sea and coast and a short stroll down to the sea for a dip. A great place to unwind and recharge the batteries. A nice mix of contemporary and vintage pieces in the unit. Points to note - it is a family home and you will hear voices from the separate unit above. Like many toilets in Sicily, you don't flush paper down the toilet, you put used toilet paper in a separate basket. Lucia doesn't speak a lot of English so polish up your Italian if you want to have a meaningful conversation. She prefers you to text if you have a query or problem. You will have to drive to eat out. We tried Da Vittorio's. Fresh seafood and good wine. Recent publicity means he can up the prices so budget for £80-100 for two people including wine. Final word - a very friendly, helpful host. An unspoilt location away from the tourist trail.

Ho passato tre giorni fantastici! La casa è bellissima,fornita di tutto e pulitissima! Immersa nel verde a due passi dal mare...una spiaggia bellissima totalmente a mia disposizione!Relax assoluto!!!! Lucia è un host perfetto, gentile e sempre disponibile.Ho adorato tutto, sicuramente tornerò la prossima estate...grazie Lucia

Siamo stati due giorni ospiti alla casa di Lucia. Un esperienza meravigliosa. La casa e' splendida, con vista stupenda sul mare. E' accogliente, pulita e sopratutto Lucia e tutta la sua famiglia sono bravissimi a farti sentire in casa. Sono attenti e discreti al tempo stesso. La casa e' anche in un ottima posizione per visitare Segesta e Sciacca. Speriamo poter tornare presto !! Ciao e grazie, siamo stati benissimo. Alberto & Ariadne

Un logement agréable, très propre, lumineux, joliment décoré, qui convient bien à un couple et qui correspond aux photos. C'est à deux pas de la plage, qui est sauvage. L'emplacement est à l'écart des gros centres, donc très tranquille. Parfait pour des vacances reposantes ! En été, l'appartement, en rez-de-chaussée en partie enterré, doit être bien frais. Lucy nous a très bien accueillis ! Très bonne communication avec nous.

nino war immer zur stelle, super service, super gastfreundlich- immer gerne wieder

Séjour très agréable. La maison est parfaite, propre et très bien équipée. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié d'avoir 2 salles de bain car nous étions 6 personnes. Nino est un hôte très accueillant et disponible, il nous a bien conseillé. Nous recommanderons très volontiers cette maison.

Immersi nella natura e a pochi minuti dal mare. La spiaggia è degna del miglior mar dei Caraibi. La casa è dotata di ogni comodità e Nino è un padrone di casa cortesissimo.

La casa di Stefano si trova in una campagna molto curata e piacevole. La posizione rispetto alle spiagge e al centro di menfi è ottima. Come già detto alla mamma di Stefano la casa ha bisogno di qualche confort in più, ma provvederanno perché era nelle loro intenzioni. Noi abbiamo trascorso 3 giorni piacevolissimi e abbiamo anche ricevuto in omaggio dei limoni appena raccolti!!

We had three wonderful days here. The cottage is very nicely designed and tastefully decorated. The settings are amazing, with olive trees and wines and other fruit trees just outside. You will need your own vehicle, but then shopping, nice restaurants and beaches are all reachable in a radius of 4 km or so.

We are big fans of this beautiful place! Located in the middle of an aggricultural area, it is quiet and very green. Lots of olive trees and vineyards nearby - we even could eat fresh figgs from the trees. In the kitchen was olive oil from Stefanos families trees, which tasted really good. One of the best things is the terrace where you can enjoy the beautiful surrounding all day long in the shade. Communication was fast and easy as Stefano and his parents speak English very well (not that common in Sicily)! Stefano met us in Menfi to show us the way to the place - he and his family also gave lots of tips on places to visit, restaurants etc. You need a car to get there and to Menfi and to the beaches. There is a large variety of clean beaches (more close ones, close to the villages with more people and further ones in a natural reserve where even in August very few people came to take a swim). There a several supermarkets in Menfi that are even open on Sundays. We highly recommend to stay there!

Bellissimo cottage immerso nel verde fra vigne e ulivi, tutto recentemente ristrutturato con buon gusto. Posizione strategica per raggiungere gran parte della Sicilia sud-orientale. Famiglia gentile ed accogliente, il contadino che gestisce l'area in loro assenza è persona squisita.

Sicily was great. Especially being in a place where you feel at home is what matters. While traveling, you always have to adapt to spaces and new energies. Our kids (teens) greatly enjoyed the beaches, walks and ... to eat ice cream every day! The family home of Stefano is located between vineyards and olive groves, with a bougainvillea blooming like a waterfall. Thank you so much for everything!!!

Unsere erste AirBnB Erfahrung und gleich ein Volltreffer! Francesco ist ein angenehmer Gastgeber, sehr hilfsbereit und absolut unaufdringlich. Für Hilfe und Tipps ständig verfügbar. Das Haus ist ansprechend konzipiert: je nach Tageszeit und Sonnenstand eine möblierte Terrasse nutzbar. Die Außenduschen nach dem Strandbesuch mehr als praktisch. Und der das Haus fast vollständig umgebende Rasen mit der wunderschönen Bepflanzung ergeben den absoluten Wohlfühleffekt. Herrlich sind die äußerst bequemen Betten, von denen man auch ohne direkten Meeresblick die Wellen rauschen hört. Die gut ausgestattete Küche haben wir gern und öfter genutzt. Auch die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und tollen Restaurants in der Nähe machen Lust auf ein Wiedersehen!

Casa Sola' è dimora perfetta per una vacanza rilassante a due passi dalla stupenda spiaggia Lido Fiori.è spaziosa ,funzionale ,(URL HIDDEN) veranda esterna è vivibilissima,si sente solo il rumore delle onde del mare !il giardino molto curato...grazie Francesco ,host gentile e disponibilissimo,per aver reso il nostro soggiorno a Menfi indimenticabile!

Wonderful holidays in a very modern, elegant and utilitarian house. There was everything one need to spend nice vacation: sun beds (big ans small) umbrella, washingmashine, coffemaker, sets of plates, glasses, pot and jars for cooking, grill to eat outside etc. I have small baby so the owner even bought for us a baby-bed with set of covers. There were three terraces, so we can eat meals on each of them according to the time of the day. Francesco (the owner) prepared some the most important things to eat and drink when we arrived late at night:) so we didnt die of hunger and thirst the first day. Francesco allowed us to use vegetables from the garden: tomatoes, zuchine, egplants and herbs.The beach was 2 minutes walk from house, sandy and empty (except Sunday). The see was marvellous, clean water and not deep, excellent for families with small kids. The house and garden was very looked after, everywhere was very clean and neat (especially bathrooms). Francesco was great always eager to help and not intrusive. I will back with pleasure next year. I recommend Casa Sola to everyone: families, couples, pack of friends:)

Soggiorno bellissimo in casa bellissima. Francesco è stato un host ideale: sempre raggiungibile e disponibile. Speriamo di tornare presto!

Francesco was a great host, he waited for us at the house an explained every little detail about the fully equipped kitchen, air conditioner, etc. Casa Solà is a beautiful modern chalet with a private garden full of olive trees and very well cared lawn. The beach is only a few steps ahead and the place is very quiet, perfect if you´re looking for some rest in your vacations. We strongly recommend Casa Solà for your stay in Sicily.

Relax, buona cucina, panorami incantevoli: Menfi e dintorni sono l'ideale per visitare tutta la Sicilia occidentale. Questa casa, poi, è nuovissima e si trova a soli 100 mt dalla bella spiaggia libera in Contrada Cipollazza. Le camere sono spaziose e hanno bagni privati con docce curate, belli anche il giardino e l'orto. Due chicche: l'area relax esterna con divanetti, sempre fresca, e le due docce esterne, ideali dopo una giornata al mare. Francesco e Antonio sono stati host perfetti: sempre disponibili e pronti a indirizzarci verso le mete più belle da visitare e i locali in cui apprezzare la tipica cucina siciliana. Da tornarci anno dopo anno...

We stayed at Saverio's place for a week and were very impressed. Saverio was a lovely host, very hospitable and welcoming, and despite our limited Italian and his little English, communication was very good, and he was prompt to reply to ongoing messages during our stay also. The house itself is in very good condition, and better than the photos do justice. We enjoyed cooking in the wood burning oven, and sitting peacefully amongst Saverio's olive grove and fruit trees. A well kept home, and very nice host. Menfi is a very good location for exploring the entire south west of Sicily, and we would not hesitate to return to Saverio's place again.

We spent 10 wonderful days in Sicily in this beatiful cottage near the town of Menfi. The cottage is as charming as the pictures would suggest, surrounded by olive and citrus trees. While the house lookes like a rustic old farmhouse, it's clearly been renovated quite recently with all the modern amenities. For us this a perfect combination. The only downside is that there is a major road behind the house, causing some noise. You get used to it after a while, but it did bother us in the first day or two. We don't talk any Italian and our host Saverio didn't speak any English, but we managed to make it work somehow. (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) translate proved to be invaluable travel companion! Saverio was even on Sicilian standars extremely friendly. Grazie Saverio! The town of Menfi itself has all the basic services, but doesn't offer much from tourists point of view. The nearby beaches however are nice, with Porto Palo being our favourite. In mid-September they were almost empty, despite the weather being perfect all the time. We used the cottage to explore Western Sicily. We went to Palermo, Erice, Marsala and the Island of Favignana among others. You obviously need a car to stay here, but if you like driving in the countryside, this is a perfect base to have such a holiday. We'll definitely come back to Sicily at some point!

Deliziosa casa immersa nella natura. Consiglio il villino a chiunque, la posizione è comoda, a 2 km dal centro di Menfi e la casa è provvista di tutte le comodità. Il mio soggiorno lavorativo è stato rilassante grazie all'ospitalità di Saverio, famiglia e Giotto!

Saverio e' stato davvero gentilissimo e disponibilissimo.... consiglio a tutti il villino! DAVVERO UN SOGNO !!!!!

Ci siamo trovati benissimo. Saverio è un ospite gentile, discreto e molto disponibile. la casa è molto carina, comoda, ben attrezzata (ci sono un meraviglioso forno a legna e un barbecue), e perfetta anche per una famiglia con bimbi.

Wir (2 Erw./1 Kind) haben ganze zwei Wochen in Alessandros Landhaus inmitten einer prächtigen Oliven-/Weinplantage zugebracht. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt und wir haben uns in jeder Hinsicht sehr wohl, ja fast zu Hause gefühlt. Wir wurden sehr sympathisch in Empfang genommen und hatten das Haus samt 20.000 qm Grundstück gefühlt ganz für uns. 1-2 mal am Tag schaut der Nachbar nach seinen Pferden, die in einer Entfernung von gut 20 Metern zur großen, überdachten Terrasse gelegentlich wiehern. Ansonsten gibt es das Haus und die Natur und in der Entfernung wahrnehmbar das Mittelmeer. Einziger Wermutstropfen ist die gerade mal 400 Meter entfernte SS 115, die Schnellstraße entlang der süd-westlichen Küste Siziliens (eine Autobahn gibt es an dieser Stelle nicht). Die von airbnb im Kartenausschnitt gekennzeichnete Position der Unterkunft stimmt insoweit überhaupt nicht. Bei eventuell auftretenden Problemen ist - so haben wir es erfahren - binnen 10 Minuten jemand zur Stelle, um sofort wirkungsvoll für Abhilfe zu sorgen. Das ist mehr, als wir erwartet hatten. Das Haus ist trotz seines typisch ländlichen, spartanischen Charakters im Wesentlichen mit allem ausgestattet, was man zum Leben braucht. Lediglich eine Klimaanlage wäre in manchen Nächten (August) durchaus angenehm gewesen. Mit dem Auto ist man in gut 5-10 Minuten am nächstgelegenen Supermarkt in Menfi, in gut 20 Minuten am nächsten Strand in/bei Porto Palo. Alles in allem waren wir alle mehr als nur zufrieden. PS: Danke an Roberta und den Vater für all ihre Bemühungen! Grazie mille!

For me, this house and property is paradise. It sits on a farm in between a vineyard and olive trees. What's not to love? Alessandro greeted us warmly and took us through the lovely house and property. Alessandro's mother met us when we left and was also very kind. Our entire family had a wonderful time. We hope to come back one day. Brent, Oakland, CA.

Beautiful typical house in the wineyards with a large open air patio. Alessandro and his family let their guests pick up excellent vegetables around. The house offers everything you need. It is simple but comfortable. Very nice beaches around and close to Selinunte's temples. We are grateful for Alessandro's brother and sister's warmful welcome and for the very good wine they offered from their own production. A nice dog is around and if you start playing with him you will quickly become his best friend !

Wow, what an amazing country side experience. We really enjoyed this place, away from the noise of city. Place is quite and relaxing. Alessandro is a great host, he welcomed us with delicious family wine and olive oil. Also he was kind and generous, allowed to have fruits and vegetables from the family garden. We will remember this unusual stay at wine yard. We recommend to stay at this place at least for a couple days.

Très charmante maison de campagne, qui donne sur les vignes avec la mer au loin ... Une énorme terrasse, aussi grande que la maison, très agréable ... Diana, la mère d Alessandro nous a très bien accueillis. Une bouteille de vin et de la huile d olive, les deux du domaine en guise de bienvenue.

I was welcomed by uncle Nino who was amazing and super friendly who found me chatting with the local carabinieri as i got a bit lost. He took me to the house. House is lovely and big. Unfortunately i had to leave early as some of the guests i invited to were unable to join me due to illness. I had to return home early. Alessandro was really nice about me having to leave early, and even managed to refund some of the days i did not stay. i did not even expect that - he offered. Thanks Ale. I can recommend this place to big families of groups of friends as you will have lots of space and all the peace an quite in the country(URL HIDDEN) It was quite windy in Menfi whne i was there :)

Alessandro is a great host. His house is wonderful, very clean and very well decorated. Perfect location, 10 mn from the sea and in the middle of the olives trees. Alessandro and his uncle, Nino, have been very helpful giving us tips about the area. I would love to come back again and enjoy one more time this beautiful house.

Beautiful house in the country, surrounded by grape, trees, tomatoes with a big nice terrace with a view on the see and all you need to live in a country house. Host and his family were very friendly Only point is cleaning price (50e) without choice to do it yourself and extra to pay for sheets and towels (10e/person).

Valentia ci ha accolta con aperitivo di benvenuto, alloggio rispecchiava la descrizione. La zona tranquilla, comoda per raggiungere la spiaggia in macchina 5minuti
