Santa Maria

Our family of five stayed at Villa Maria for a week in August 2025. We had a wonderful time. The villa itself is absolutely stunning and clearly a much loved home. Caroline & Marcello went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed (including a comprehensive guide to the local area). The pool was enormous allowing our various family members to follow their own agendas, almost without fighting. The tennis court was also lovely, our evening games are a fond memory. We also wanted to mention the dining table in the walled citrus grove - wonderfully atmospheric. Thank you!

My husband and I took our son and his family with us for a holiday in this delightful house in early June. It proved to be a great choice for us all. Such a romantic yet practical place to holiday. Efficient air conditioning, comfortable large double bedrooms and stylish interiors with delightful gardens - particularly the lemon and orange grove and swimming pool. The hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful with local knowledge. They also provided us with baby equipment - everything from cots and baby baths to buckets and spades and inflatables. A very happy week

A stunning Villa with a beautiful garden full of flowering shrubs olive groves and palm trees, located near shops with easy access to archaeological sights and Palermo airport. We had sunny weather with temperatures of 22-24C. Even at end of October, we were able to swim in the pool, although the water was a little chilly when we first got in. The owner provided us with extensive local information which meant we were able to maximise our time well.

We had a wonderful week at Santa Maria. The property and grounds are stunning and were a good base to explore ancient ruins and the smaller islands. Caroline was an exceptional host and provided us with lots of useful information. We would highly recommend a visit.
