Maalaistalot – Porto Empedocle

”Beautiful, quiet, peaceful property, located 5 min off of SS115. 10-15 min drive to coastal towns of Realmonte or Siculia, either beaches or restaurant areas. Nearby is busy Agrigento which is a large town. (20-30 min drive depending upon traffic from hotel to Valle dei Templi). This hotel has a good central location. What is phenomenal is its' location as a place to unwind at the end of the evening, when returning from the beach or bar/restaurant areas in nearby towns. It is quite something...

”This place was amazing and exactly the same as shown in the pictures! Food was good also”

”Absolute joy. Pleasant oasis in the middle of Agrigento region. 15 min from the Valley of the Temples and 30 min from the Scala dei Turchi. Former summer villa of local Bishop now an organic farm to table high end boutique hotel. Home made soap, shampoo, pasta, bread, olive oil and very comfortable beds with all cotton and linen bedding! Beautiful gardens and pool with peacocks wandering around. We stayed 2 nights and eat at the hotel every night. Reasonable prices and fresh home cooked...

”What a fantastic place to spend a couple of days. This is why: 1. Great hosts: Julia and Georgio are like family. They help you with everything you need and are so extremely friendly! 2. Fantastic food: we had dinner and lunch and they cooked such great stuff all fresh out of their garden 3. Fantastic location: it is a very quiet and relaxing location Julia and Sergio: thank you very much for hosting us in such a great way!”

”Our room was very small but fine for one night. The pool is fabulous but unfortunately the spa jets didn't work, and the outside bar service was haphazard. Coffee and cocktails were poor, served in plastic glasses, which felt far from glamorous, even when we were sitting some way from the pool. After explaining that we didn't want a large set dinner, we were pleased to be offered the supposedly four-course meal to share. But while it was good, it was absolutely tiny: barely enough for one...
