Matkat – Ummari

The staff was amazing and very helpful. They moved our room after our first night because the people in the room above us were so loud we could hear everything. The rooms are nice but have some drawbacks: in order to have your windows open to get fresh air at night, the room is flooded with all the uplighting surrounding the hotel. The windows have wooden shutters inside which means in order to block out the light, you must close the windows and then close the wooden shutters. Either turn off the floodlights at night or provide some curtains. The walls are also very thin and you can hear everything in the room next to you. We couldn’t get any of the TV apps to work so only had access to Italian TV. Did a fun (but very long) cooking class. The pool area is interesting but not inviting. It’s in a corner in the main area of the courtyard and faces 2 walls so there is no view. Also not very private. There is no lobby bar or any soft seating to relax anywhere. There is also not a set restaurant at the hotel - you have to do a cooking class or a private chef cooking for you (which would be nice but it’s in the cooking class/breakfast room so you have to experience it while a class is going on beside you). It’s a very pretty hotel but not really designed for the best experience for guests.

Hotelli on erinomiaisella paikalla vanhan kaupungin vieressä, henkilökunta kielitaitoista ja ystävällistä. Aamiainen on erinomainen. Hotelli alkaa kaivata pintaremonttia, ja suihkussa lämmintä vettä joutuu odottamaan turhan kauan.

Dejligt sted og sødt personale.

Staying at Villa Diana was among our favorite vacation spots in Sicily and indeed, one of the best bed and breakfast experiences we've had in our travels around the world. Nestled among the hills of Agrigento, the countryside setting was breathtaking and was enjoyed for many hours from the balcony of our room. Dario is the consummate host and no detail was left unattended to. His home/bed and breakfast is elegant and is filled with treasures that are a feast for the eyes. Breakfast with freshly baked breads, cakes, freshly squeezed juices, homemade jams and delicious coffee, was absolute perfection. Served in a bright and sunny dining room on gorgeous freshly laundered linens made that experience all the more special. The remote location was easily accessible to a nearby shopping area and the ruins of Agrigento were close by yet the location of Villa Diana had a rural charm. Dario did everything he could to ensure we had a perfect visit and we most assuredly did. Bravo and thank you to Dario and his sister, Diana who entertained us as if we were honored guests. We recommend Villa Diana highly.
