Accoglienza perfetta!
Antica ed affascinante dimora siciliana, con inclusi elementi di fascino unico (parte di una antica torre di avvistamento), ampi spazi con arredamento d’epoca. Giardino -meglio dire parco- curatissimo e pulito. Piscina con vista mozzafiato. Se ciò non fosse sufficiente, a tutto questo incanto, si aggiunge una accoglienza e disponibilità delle proprietarie che va ben oltre la “cortesia e solerzia”. Sempre discrete ma disponibili anche per le più piccole cose, accolgono gli ospiti nella loro splendida villa come perfette padrone di casa, facendoci sentire benvenuti, desiderati e benvoluti. La “coccola” finale dell’omaggio dell’olio di produzione propria è stata graditissima. Semplicemente perfette! Grazie di cuore, augurandomi di incontrarvi presto!

Consiglierei ad un amico un soggiorno in villa
I luoghi sono molto più belli e sorprendenti delle foto pubblicate sul sito. Cristina e Francesca gentili e molto disponibili. Da consigliare

Nothing short of amazing
The castle was everything and more than described. The host was amazing in communication, even before the trip, asking if we had any questions or would like her to set up some tours. We set up a personal chef to come cook and teach us how to make pasta one night, it was amazing! They have a room with conveniences to purchase if you forgot something, at very reasonable prices as well as drinks and food. The garden was so large and amazing to walk thru, you can tell the care they take to maintain the property. They will tell you the history of the home, gardens if asked. They had no one after us so they offered to let us check out late if we wanted, we would have but we had an early flight :( The town Valderice, had great bakeries, restaurants as well. I can not say enough, except we will be back!

Family trip to Sicily
This was a delightful place to stay. We were so happy that we selected this listing. Property manager could not have been better…she communicated punctually and clearly at every step…from pre-visit help with reservations as well as tour, beach and restaurant suggestions…and even after check out with finding my missing phone within 10 minutes of departure! The property is charming and very spacious. We had 2 couples, a nanny, another adult and a:20 month old and never felt cramped. The grounds are very private, picturesque and well tended. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool as well!

A Wonderful Two Week Vacation
The property is exactly as stated in the description. The house is comfortable and we’ll equipped. It’s obvious that the owners have a great pride in the manor that’s been owned by their family for generations. The greatest asset of the rental are the two sisters who couldn’t have been more accommodating. Francesca is a wonderful hostess who responded quickly to our every inquiry, recommended places to destinations, restaurants, etc. Her sister Christina was also very helpful in making our holiday a success. Thank you ladies for all you did.

Gorgeous holiday in the Sicilian Sun
Our host Francesca has been incredible, nothing was too much for her and I cannot recommend her and her beautiful property enough! Francesca worked really hard to make sure we had a fantastic week, organising our trips and restaurants, she was amazing. The house is beautiful, really spacious with many varied inside and outside areas. It is truly a grand old house, steeped in history. The pool area was fantastic and we also loved the outside terraces and barbecue area.I cannot fault it at all and am delighted to give this review to encourage other people to book this amazing villa. Thank you Francesca.

wow
you really do get to stay in a castle with the most amazing private pool! Francesca was the perfect host and nothing was too much for her to help us with. Her communication ahead of the trip was really useful to get all the questions and worries out of your head. Totally fantastic place, very highly recommended.

Charming Villa - ideal for friends and family holidays
We all loved staying at the Dimora Storica — the villa is incredibly charming and is very comfortable for large-ish groups of family and friends that still may like some privacy. The hosts, Francesca and Cristina, were kind and very flexible and understanding regarding checking in and out and they also provided some really helpful tips along the way.

Wonderful Stay!
This is a gorgeous property, and very spacious for our group of 4 couples. The grounds are like something out of a movie! Francesca, the owner, was extremely responsive to any questions before the trip and always available via text while we were there, but never intrusive. She even dropped off some delicious gelato treats while we were there, and has wine available to purchase, which was a bonus for us the night we arrived! You need a car at this location to visit the many nearby towns. We day-tripped to Marsala, Trapani, Palermo, Monreale, San Vito Lo Capo, Erice, and Segesta. I would highly recommend this beautiful villa for a great visit to Sicily!

A beautiful little castle
Our stay with extended family was excellent. Four very nice bedrooms ( we didn’t use the 5th one) a kitchen, a living room, a dining room and a terrace with a view makes it a very spacious house. The garden including the swimming pool was very nice as well. A small drive to the beach or other nearby sites. In short a very very good holiday destination.

Great stay
As a family of 6 people, we spent 4 nights in the house. It was a great experience! The place is very unique, the view is beautiful, the location is easy easy to access thanks to the highway, great to visit Erice, San Vito lo Capo or Zingaro and the hosts were very nice.

Villa Fontana, Valderice, Sicily
Stunning views toward the sea and mountains from this extraordinary historic villa. Many charming features, very comfortable for our family of seven with room to spare. Very clean with comfortable beds and an extremely well appointed kitchen. Many thanks to Francesca and Christina for their generous hospitality. Easy to contact, always responsive and very welcoming, they greeted us with a lovely bottle of wine and delicious tray of pastries, gave a very thorough tour of the impressive property, explained how to operate everything and also took the time to make suggestions about area markets, restaurants and sights that made our stay so memorable. We enjoyed every minute. The pool was a real family favorite with both an adult area and a children’s pool. Lovely sunrises greeted us in the morning and twinkling lights of nearby towns were magical at night. Easy to get to Erice, Trapani, the Salt Flats, Segesta and all the beautiful towns in this region. Would be more than happy to revisit.

Beautiful house with views
A very enjoyable old but renovated house in West Sicily. The views are magnificient although this may not be the best part of Sicily for beaches. The village is not particularly charming but the landscapes are marvelous. On the other hand it’s within reasonable distance to must-see places like Palermo, Monreale, Selinunte or Segesta. The hosts are very helpful for any practical questions about the area and quick to respond for any request. The house and garden are very nice amd well maintained as seen in the pictures. The house would benefit from some extras for parties of 8 or more such as a second fridge or a larger table and an awning at the terrace. Nice BBQ area (maybe a larger table is need too). Highly recommendable in any case.

Une maison chargée d'histoire donnant sur un jardin aux senteurs de la Sicile
Belle demeure de famille avec une vue superbe sur la mer. Très agréable jardin. La piscine est un peu loin de la villa. Le stationnement avec un grand véhicule est délicat. Bilan toutefois très positif.

This place is magical. Anyone that finds it has discovered something special.
Out of 5 stars, Villa Fontana is a 100. The hospitality from Francesca and Christina is like a 5 star hotel, from helping with sightseeing recommendations to private chefs to taxi services to a vet! Nothing is too small or too large and they’re the friendliest people in Sicily, an island of very friendly people. The property itself can’t be captured in photos. It’s a castle that overlooks the sea with a vignette of mountains. The water changes color everyday from blue to green to silver, depending on the clouds and time of day. The gardens make you feel like you’re in an old Sicilian film, meticulously cared for almost daily by a friendly staff. In terms of location, let me just say, I spent a month at Villa Fontana (I just left this morning) and still couldn’t do everything available within an hour’s drive, from Erice to Marsala to Selinunte and Segesta, San Vito Lo Capo, Castellamare del Golfo; each a different experience from beaches to wineries to antiquity. I made a bold decision to move to Sicily for a month and invite friends and family throughout that time. I thought Villa Fontana looked great on VRBO, I had no idea how lucky I was to have chosen it. Thank you Francesca and Christina! Grazie millie! Max

Underbart hus för större familj
Fantastiskt fint hus och trevligt bemötande av värd. Vacker utsikt från balkong, underbar trädgård och fin pool. Fick köpa familjens egenodlade grönsaker och olivolja. Enda minus att poolen delas med annan familj. Stränderna i området inte så fina men en dag på havet med båt var magiskt!

Hi Johanna, thank you for your review. We appreciate very much your politeness and your suggestion and we decided to build a new services area for the exclusive use of the villa that will include a new pool :-) We forecast to have it ready within the spring 2019 We hope to host you again :-)
