Dear Paola + Giuseppe, We thank you so much for sharing you beautiful villa with us - it is a jewel of Sicily! The comfort, hospitality, tranquility and beauty of this place will always be remembered by us - we could not have chosen a more perfect "time" to experience our first trip to Sicily. We thank you also for the wonderful welcome basket - everything so perfect! Our dream is to return to this paradise one day but in the meantime, we say grazie mille, stammi bene and arrivederci.

What a wonderful villa you have and what fantastic hosts you are. From the welcome basket, to the stocked essentials + toiletries and the advice on places to go + see, you have thought of everything. We had different guests at different times, as our family came to stay at different times, and you organised cleaning + sheets + towels on our change over dates, not the usual dates. This was so kind. Thank you. We would recommend the villa to all. Best wishes!

To all visitors of Villa Pales - We had a wonderful time in this incredibly beautiful house with the amazing view. We would most certainly like to compliment the owners Paola & Guseppe for their hospitality. They have tried their best to ensure we had a good time! What stood out compared to other places was also the cleaniness. The whole house and everything in it, was extremely clean. We hope to be able to come back in the future.... Thank you Paola & Giuseppe, hope to meet you again!

What a wonderful week. The owners hospitality and kindness was very much appreciated! When we were all very hot, they brought us granita, what a fantastic way to get a real flavour of Sicily. The villa is perfect and so beautifully designed, and although we couldn't explore the area as much as we had hoped due to the heatwave,we were still able to enjoy some wonderful Sicilian food in Licata.

We had the most wonderful stay in your beautiful home. Waking every morning to endless views of sea was truly special. The house was gorgeous and we appreciated all the little touches and attention to detail. We enjoyed exploring the area and it was lovely to be away from the tourist crowds in our own little oasis.

We had a pleasant time at villa Pales. We are sure to go back again at a time when we can appreciate the pool and the terrace as it was too cold, but looked too inviting. The owners created a little paradise.

Grazie mille per averci dato questa possibilità di trascorrere fantastici 8 giorni in questo paradiso terrestre. Abbiamo degustato molte specialità locali come gli arancini ed i cannoli siciliani nelle pasticcerie di Licata. Il mix perfetto della vacanza è stato l'iced coffee a bordo piscina, 50 sfumature di grigio, il sottofondo musicale dello stereo nel salotto e i pasticcini alle mandorle dei proprietari!

We spent 10 perfect days in this bright mansion surrounded by silence, relax, nature, an awesome pool, nice beaches close by, amazing lunches and dinners with friends and good wines from the enoteca. The owners were the perfect hosts for an amazing stay. The perfect holiday house that makes everyone feels home. We will definitely come back.

At dawn you could see the sun rising above the horizon, as birds chittered and sang. During the day, we loved eating breakfast and lunch on the gorgeous terrace, or sometimes just sitting on the swingy chair and sofa, just gazing dreamily at the ocean. The amazing outdoor space and pool provided hours of fun and entertainment, and the beach, which was only 300 metres away was a hidden gem. At dusk, we’d watch the sun dip below the horizon and feel the evening breeze. Finally at night, we’d enjoy the luxurious interior of the house, especially the open lounge. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. From the amazing villa and garden to the memorable trips to the beach, Agrigento and Licata. It was the perfect family holiday.
