Casa Don Vicenzo

A stay that deserves 10.0 points!

Everything. The host Marta and her husband were lovely. They were so kind and the breakfast was incredible. Marta even made a freshly baked gluten free torte because myself and another guest were GF. She really showed attention to detail and made us feel welcome and like family. She sent great recommendations for dinner and waited up for us when we arrived later than anticipated with the warmest welcome. I would love to return. Thank you Marta and famiglia

Nothing - it was perfect

Casa don Vicenzo worked perfectly for our four day stay in Randazzo. Its location on a quiet street with easy parking was ideal: a short walk to the restaurants in the centre but avoiding the maze of narrow streets there. We had a sunny terrace with a nice view out towards the surrounding hills. The room was large, comfortable and well equipped, with a fridge, kettle, and coffee maker. The bathroom was similar spacious with an excellent shower. Above all, Marta was a genuinely wonderful host, as highlighted by many previous reviewers. She could not have been more welcoming, more helpful (her restaurant recommendations were excellent) or more responsive to individual guests. Marta realised that we enjoyed fresh fruit for breakfast and clearly went out of her way to make sure we had a great selection of different fruit every day, alongside her generous buffet. Other guests were cared for in a similar way. As I wrote that I realised that ‘care’ is a key word here: we felt that Marta cared about us as her guests, not just customers. I can’t write a higher recommendation than that. For us, Marta and Casa don Vicenzo has set a new standard for what a 10 means in booking.com reviews.

Nothing

Warmth of welcome, even the messages before we arrived were unusually warm and friendly. Marta is the perfect host, offering helpful suggestions about places to visit and good restaurants for vegetarians. We enjoyed a marvellous meal at San Giorgio e il dragone in Randazzo - quality cooking using local produce- at her suggestion. Our room was large, warm (it was February) and comfortable with a balcony plus fridge, kettle and coffee machine. Marta’s breakfasts remain unsurpassed : beautifully presented with loads of fruit, tasty bread, pastries, yoghurts, home baked cake, eggs, freshly squeezed orange juice and refills of coffee. She is very attentive and thoughtful. Randazzo is a good centre for visiting Etna and Nebrodi mountains and surrounding area. Local wine and olive oil seemed very nice.
