Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Balestrate

We thoroughly enjoyed Umberto’s country home. We appreciated his warm welcome as well as the time he took to detail the history of his family’s traditional Sicilian farmstead. We found the home and its surrounding gardens much larger than we expected, clean and well-maintained, and properly furnished. It’s location, just a 10-minute drive downhill to historic Trapani and just a 10-minuute drive uphill to spectacular Erice, was perfect for us. Guests who are unfamiliar with negotiating the narrow mountainous roads that crisscross this part of Sicily – and which lead to and from Umberto’s AirBnB – should find the roads well-maintained and generally well-signed. Google Maps worked extremely well for us. Also, our tiny Fiat-500 rental car had no issues negotiating the region's steep and narrow roads!

Marina has set the bar unattainably high for any other AirBnb host! Not only was the house absolutely beautiful, it was clean, organized, perfectly located, and had every amenity you could think of (plus more that you didn't remember!). On top of that, Marina is a gem of a person. I've never been to the same AirBnb twice because we like going to new places, but I really hope to make coming back here an annual tradition! My children will remember Palermo forever. Thank you so much, Marina <3

Manfredi‘s place is a beautiful little getaway spot from more bustling parts of Sicily. If you‘re looking for a very peaceful and quite place where it’s just you and your partner/friend - look no further. Manfredi is also super responsive and kind. Grazie mille

Magnificent. Awesome. Amazing... How else can we describe the most beautiful pool garden we've ever encountered in many, many Airbnb accommodations? You'll love the views, sounds and smells of nature all around the house. Great showers, good beds, nice surroundings, very friendly welcome, easy communication, handy tips and good base for day trips to Palermo and Mondello Beach or Cefalù. If you're reading this review, know that you have just found the ultimate spot in North West Sicily, so don't hesitate to book it. You will not regret it. You'll get a fun, short, bumpy ride from the gate to the house to reach this wonderful house. We wanted to stay forever.

This was by far one of my favorite places i have stayed! The home itself was so much better than the photos but even more was the unbelievable hospitality that we experienced from Maria Francesca and Gaetano. BRAVO to these hosts!! Even though we arrived late they met us and welcomed us in, explaining everything. They came to say goodbye also and were only message away for whatever need we had. If you are ever in Palermo this place is a MUST!! THANK YOU

Wir (4 Freunde) hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt im Haus. Wir haben es geliebt ;-) Ausreichend Platz und nette kleine Details überall. Es gab alles was man brauchte. Besonders der große Garten mit den vielen Sitzmöglichkeiten hat uns verzaubert. Ein Pluspunkt auch der Kamin in der Küche. Zu der Zeit wo wir dort waren, war nicht so viel offen (Restaurants etc.) aber somit war es auch schön ruhig) Vielen Dank an die Gastgeber :-)

This villa was exactly how we had envisioned. We fell in love with everything! The view, beach, terrasse and Scopello (little town 20 min. walk) was a great surprise. End June we found a soft partyvibe in Scopello with winetasting from the area and a band. Amazing restaurants and few tourists. We will be back Nathalie😍

Alessandro was a super good host! Always answering all our questions quickly and making sure everything was good. Gave good tips as well and was always available during the stay. Super friendly and helpful. The house had an amazing outside area, where we enjoyed the outdoor kitchen with dinners and the pool etc. Trapetto as a town is quite dead but many very beautiful places to visit around and things to do and see. I definitely recommend this villa, the sunset view was also amazing.

Everything was great, Sergio was very helpful and friendly. We felt at home

Micheles Appartement direkt in der Altstadt gleich hinter dem archäologischen Museo Nationale war ein Glücksfall in jeder Beziehung. Ein supertoller Balkon im 3. Stock mit herrlichen Pflanzen u. Schatten, eine perfekt ausgestattete, großzügig geschnittene Wohnung mit vielen interessanten Details. Michele half bei An-u.Abreise. Die Beschreibung entsprach voll der Realität. Gern wären wir länger geblieben.

My wife and I had a fantastic stay at Nicoletta's Airbnb. The apartment was comfortable and well-maintained, and the location was ideal for exploring the area, with easy access to the beach, restaurants, and transport to Palermo. The rooftop terrace and sea views were a definite highlight, providing a relaxing atmosphere after days of sightseeing. The space was bigger than it looked in the photos and there was a community feel in the common areas. Nicoletta and her team were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. When we had a mix-up with our transportation, they were very understanding and went out of their way to ensure we were taken care of and that everything was resolved. This level of support made a big difference and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation without any added stress. We highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a great stay with excellent hosts.

Such a cute and quiet place to get away from the city just what we needed! Tania was so nice and we were able to hang out in the garden, pick the fig trees, have eggs from her chickens! Just incredible experience!

L’alloggio di Ferdinando è un bell’appartamento in pieno centro storico a Palermo. La casa dispone di tutti i servizi necessari, la comunicazione con il co-host Giorgio è stata super, così come la gentilezza durante tutto il soggiorno. Abbiamo particolarmente apprezzato i consigli. Consigliata!

Flavia è una host fantastica. L'alloggio è in una posizione semplicemente PERFETTA. Sconsiglio di trovare soluzioni più economiche in posizioni diverse perchè da questo alloggio si raggiungono tutte le principali mete con una piacevole passeggiata. La casa è comoda, pulita e accogliente. La zona è molto vivace per belle serate ma può esserci qualche fastidio se si va a dormire prima di mezzanotte, ma le camere da letto sono abbastanza tranquille. Abbiamo avuto un problema di natura personale durante l'alloggio e Flavia si è dimostrata comprensiva e subito ci è venuta incontro aiutandoci!! E questo conta più di qualsiasi altra cosa, perchè gli imprevisti in vacanza accadono e avere una persona di riferimento pronta ad aiutare è fondamentale. Grazie!!!

We stayed at Mole’s beautiful apartment for a couple of days as a group of 4 friends and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautifully furnished home that felt like time travel. The apartment was well located to walk to the main attractions of Palermo and very closely located to the harbour. We were all working from abroad for a couple of days and the apartment offered enough space for all of us to do. If you are arriving by car, we highly recommend following the instructions by Mole as the street of Palermo are very tight to navigate. We highly recommend staying with Mole if you would like to have a city escape experiencing the buzzing life of Palermo.

Five stars are hardly enough! Our stay at Rosario’s place was absolutely wonderful – not just because of the lovely and well-kept accommodation, but especially thanks to Rosario himself. From the very beginning, communication was warm and easy, and upon arrival, Rosario welcomed us with genuine kindness and a wealth of helpful local tips. He showed us places we never would have discovered on our own! For example we ate the best Pizza in our lifes because of his recommendation. What truly stood out was how incredibly attentive and caring he was throughout our stay. We could reach out to him anytime with questions or needs, and he checked in with us every single day to make sure everything was going well. As a special and unexpected gesture, he even drove us to the train station on our departure day – something we deeply appreciated. Rosario is a host with a big heart, and we would return in a heartbeat. Thank you for making our stay special!

We had the most amazing 10 days at Rosellina’s beautiful home in Solanto. From the moment we arrived, Rosellina and her husband welcomed us with such warmth and generosity – they truly went out of their way to make us feel at home. While the immediate area isn’t the most eventful, we honestly didn’t need anything beyond the charm of the house itself and its spectacular view over the bay, the mountains, and the deep blue sea. Best of all was the private “beach” – a rocky cliffside where we could swim and snorkel straight from the water’s edge. The house is just a short drive from supermarkets and lovely small towns like Porticello, Santa Flavia, and Bagheria – and only about 40 minutes to Palermo. We’re already dreaming of coming back!

We spent a week in October in beautiful sunshine. We loved the personal family nature of this house. Beautiful stylish and creative decor. Idyllic location for privacy with the most gorgeous terrace. We swam off the rocks with snorkels to see some colourful fish. Nearby San Vito lo Cappo was great for food, sandy beach and shops. A perfect holiday!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Maria Elena ! La maison est très agréable, le patio et le jardin sont top, la plage accessible à pied en quelques minutes. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l’accueil chaleureux de Maria Elena, elle nous a donné beaucoup de conseils sur les activités à proximité, les restaurants etc. Une adresse à recommander !

Wir können uns den 5-Sterne Bewertungen unserer Vorgänger uneingeschränkt anschließen. Danieles Casa ist einfach ein Traum. Leider konnten wir Daniele nicht persönlich kennenlernen, er war aber stets erreichbar und immer um uns bemüht. Absolute Top-Empfehlung.

We had an amazing time at Giacoma & Carlo’s villa. Everything was as the pictures in the listing and the view of both the mountains and the sea was perfect from the terrace. Giacoma & Carlo was super responsive whenever we had a question and helped make our stay perfect.

Wir hatten einen super schönen Aufenthalt in Aldos Unterkunft. Wir waren 4 Personen (2 Pärchen) es war genug Platz so das man in dieser Unterkunft sich jeder auch etwas zurückziehen konnte. Der Papa von Aldo wohnt direkt hinter der Unterkunft und war sehr aufmerksam und bei allen Fragen und Anliegen direkt vor Ort. Wir werden aufjedenfall wiederkommen! Danke

Great spot just a stone’s throw from the beach. The villa has everything you need for cooking. Everything worked out great.

Incroyable séjour, le jacuzzi a l’extérieur avec la super belle vue est indescriptible ! Endroit apaisant, ou l’on ne pense plus a rien. Une coupure qui fait beaucoup de bien ! Merci Daniela !
