Villa Maruzza one kilometer from the sea

We had a great time in Trabia, the family hosting was very friendly and helpful. Relaxed environment, the house is located on a hill a bit outside of town. Everything in the house is very beautiful, fully equiped kitchen and more than one balconies to sit outside with seaside view. You can walk down to a small local beach and the town where you find a supermarket and some bars and restaurants, or take trips to nearby bigger beaches and towns if you have a car. It takes around 20 min to walk down, up the hill is a bit of a workout :) Would very much recommend!

Splendida accoglienza e disponibilità dell'host. Casa in posizione strategica per visitare la costa palermitana.

Ich wollte ein paar Tage zwischen all dem Sight Seeing entspannen. Das war sehr gut möglich. Als kleine Anmerkung: Die Terrasse auf dem Titelbild gehört nicht zum Haus

Small friendly town, good location for visiting nearby attractions (Palermo, Cefalu, Marsala). Villa was clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was small (not really suitable for cooking or preparing large meals) and came with a toaster oven, small refrigerator, 4 burner stovetop attached to propane tank. The owners were very helpful and in general the communication was very good. We did have several days (not consecutive) where the municipality cut off the water--the owners drove into town and returned with water in containers for us to use until the service was restored. After arriving in Palermo we were late getting to the villa and the owners were very accommodating and had fruit, pizza, water, and coffee waiting for us. The unit has an air conditioner which helps cool the unit during the day (not quiet enough for sleeping, however we were there during some pretty hot days, and opening the windows at night was more than adequate for sleeping comfortably). The views from the terrace in the villa we stayed in were wonderful, and there was a laundry on site that we used a couple of times without problem. After a couple of days, and with the help of the owners, the villa really felt like home. The things we used most in Trabia itself were the supermarket, outdoor market (one morning a week), and very friendly local wine shop. As others, I will also stress you need a vehicle to access the villa, it is out of the way and having your own car is the only way to reach it. In general our visit to Sicily was wonderful, we particularly enjoyed Palermo and Cefalu, and also experienced some very enjoyable excursions based on the recommendations of our hosts. The food was exceptional, and we explored 6 or 7 beaches in the area. Not every beach was as clean as we hoped, but the water was always enjoyable. We found the people almost universally friendly and helpful, and felt very safe no matter where we were on the island. Not having water for a few days was inconvenient, however our hosts did the best they could to minimize the inconvenience. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
