Villa Paladino Solunto is a small and amazing complex of 5 lovely bright, cozy and full-equipped suites (3 three-room suites for 4 - 5 people and 2 two-room suites for 2 - 4 people), immersed in a dreaming and amazing atmosphere, between history and mythe,just at the gates of Palermo. It has exceptional charm and prestige by the unique characteristics between the gulfs of Palermo and Cefalù. It smartly stands on a lush hill, close to the Natural Reserve of Monte Catalfano and the Archeological Park of Solunto,the famous Phoenician and Greek - Roman city. Guided tours on foot of Monte Catalfano can be arranged. Along the coast, you can visit the Archaeological underwater Park of the Rock of the Ant. Boat trips with skipper in the clear waters around the Scoglio della Formica (the Rock of the Ant), home of dolphins, up to the Aeolian Islands and fishing can be arranged in summer. The closest sand beach is only met 800 far from the Villa. You can look at the Gulf of Palermo and Monte Pellegrino too ('The most beautiful promontory of the world', said Goethe, the well known German poet who came in Sicily in 19th century) from the windows of your bedrooms.The view of the sea embraces from Palermo to Cefalù until the high chain of Nebrodi and that over mountains reaches from Mount Pellegrino (Palermo) to the inner mountains of Sicily, the magnificent tops of Madonie (alt. m 2000), looking at the hills, the rocky promontories and the green valleys of Bagheria and Santa Flavia too. On these panoramic luxuriant hills of Bagheria you can admire a lot of beautiful eighteenth - century villas built by the best Sicilian nobility. Villa Paladino solunto is a fascinating and enchanting site,a very peaceful place where adults and children can enjoy and spend unforgettable holidays thanks to the gorgeous setting with an incredible pool similar to a natural lake in the middle of a large Mediterranean garden. Ii is also a good starting point with easy access to motorway and manageable driving time to majority of attractions. 200 meters away you may visit the touristic village of Santa Flavia and the fishing villages of Porticello and S.Elia, where you can taste delicious Sicilian dishes. Approximately 1 Km. after S.Elia, driving along the quite panoramic coastal road, that flows around the Natural Reserve of Monte Catalfano, you’ll get the promontory of Mongerbino and the seafaring village of Aspra and with its breath-taking views on the Gulf of Palermo and Monte Pellegrino.

Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy

Very basic accommodations, with limited comforts

Address on listing is not accurate. The surroundings are beautiful, however the actual living accommodations are very basic, limited and uncomfortable.
