Holiday rentals with beach access in Metropolitan City of Palermo

This was our second stay at Alessandra’s Casa sul di Mare. We have only done the same AirBnB at this special place since traveling. It is the best location for the view and allows our daughter to play all day on the beach while we can see her right from the room. It has the best restaurants within a block and entertainment. It is historical and makes you feel like you transported back in time. Alessandra is a beautiful host and had the best recommendations for Cefalu. She was very helpful when our daughter was not well and offered to arrange for her to see a doctor. Only in Sicilia do you have such compassion and welcoming hosts like Alessandra. Grazie mille ci vediamo l'anno prossimo!

Very nice, small apartment on the ground floor with space to park your car and direct access to the beach. The kitchen was well-equipped, although the electric kettle was missing (but we're in Italy - coffee and wine dominated here!:)) There were also sun loungers and umbrellas for the beach. A good base for Palermo, Trapani, and Segesta. Giuseppe received us in person, explained everything thoroughly. He also recommended us a great restaurant for Christmas dinner.

Anna is great always on hand for advice and beach 5min walk restaurant close by with big supermarket 9min drive is huge clothes and shopping

Stefania was an incredible host!! She gave us many recommendations for local restaurants to get the authentic Palermo experience! The beaches nearby were gorgeous. Well worth what we paid, Mondello is a beautiful area. We felt right at home! I wish we could have stayed longer.

We stayed in Giselda and Colin's apartment for 6 nights. Very nice that we were met at the gas station downstairs, so we could drive up after them. Excellent apartment, with terrace where you have a beautiful view. The sea is as wide as the crow flies but without a car it is heavy. We drove down where we reached a nice small beach overlooking Cefalú via a path. Apartment is well equipped.. we did not cook but everything is there to do so. Dishwasher and washing machine are what was very nice. In addition to Cefalú, there are many beautiful places to visit that are worth visiting, including: Castelbuono, Santa Stefano di Camastra, Castel di Tusa and others. Definitely recommendable

great spot in the centre of the old town. easy to walk to restaurants and the beach is a stones throw away. lovely views from the balcony too

A delightful, warm , helpful and friendly host. The property was a good size, tidy and well decorated. The location was perfect as you could walk to the beach , restaurant and amenities in no time . Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

This is a great apartment, with a perfect location - on the seafront, a few minutes walk to the sany beach, and surrounded by many restaurants / bars / shops. Everything you could need is included with this Airbnb, and the off street parking is a real bonus. On our next return to Mondello, we won't hesitate to stay here again. Thank you!

This was by far the nicest airbnb! Floriana is a class act and has thought of everything -providing answers in advance, recommendations, etc.The house is lovely and decorated by an experienced host. It is just beautiful. Initially finding the property was a little challenging- but after the first time, all was good. Easy drive to Cefalu. A MUST DO—-she arranged for Chef Francesca to cook for us at the house beach front! Just terrific. I will recommend this house and Floriana 1000%! She also has other houses and boutique hotels in Palermo.

We had great time in Alcamo. The apartment is very comfortable and nice. There are 2 bathrooms which is very handy. The terrace is a good place to spend time. There is also a washing machine, toys for the beach and soft blankets :). You really appreciate them during colder evenings. The nearby beach stretches for 10km and is clean. Water is turquoise. There are some shops nearby, bakery and lot of supermarkets in the cities around Alcamo. Stefano is a very helpful, kind and responsive host. We got spoilt with some beautiful local pastries! Thank you. We would like to come back in the future for another holidays.

lovely, cozy little place right in the center of town. great communication and kind hosts. recommended

nice holiday in early April 2025. The apartment is very nicely located, close to a beach. The south and west coast of Sicily are quite untouched and underdeveloped. You get a lot of tips from the host. He is always ready for you. We enjoyed visits to, among other things, selinonte, agrigento and sciacca. I recommend it! (as far as the shower is concerned: it is indeed somewhat inconvenient but there is plenty of hot (and hot) water. So not insurmountable). Grazie!

Roberto is a very welcoming host, he is very responsive and gave us some great recommendations in the area. He even brought us breakfast twice. The house has an unobstructed view of the sea with private access without sand space to settle in but with a small concrete terrace. We also enjoyed the outdoor terrace which is sheltered from the wind and where we spent very pleasant evenings. We had a good week in Sicily and the location very close to the airport (15 min) was a plus. The cities of Trapani, Palermo, Mondello, Segeste are easily accessible within 1 hour and Cefalu at 1h20.

An amazing getaway! A pristine, rustic, and cozy sicilian home nestled in a citrus and olive orchard with a 200 meter walk to the beach. Quiet, except for the birds and the occasional car. Full kitchen to cook what you learned at at a local cooking class and a great family run restaruant an few minutes walk away. Close to main roads for adventures out and a train station about a kilometer away if you prefer. The host was friendly and helpful with recomendations and understanding Sicily if it is your first time. He spoke English very well and a variety of other languages. This was a great location to live and breathe Sicillian culture and to have a quiet place to rest. Overall an amazing countryside stay that was still close to Cefalu and Palermo. Highly recommended!

Wonderful place right on the water. Gives an amazing view up and down the coast. The outdoor kitchen with rolling doors was such a great idea. My wife and I found it a perfect spot for a glass of wine and some cheese on the cooler spring nights we were there. Special shoutout for having the electric heater available that we used outdoors. Paulo was always responsive. Great place with easy travel to Palermo and Cefalù and your own parking spot. So much fun!

we had great time at Giovanni's. his son and him were extremely friendly and we were well hosted. the house is a bit old but functional and if you need something, they will answer immediately at your request! the house was extremely cleaned and the position in frontoof the beautiful beach is amazing!

Leti was responsive and efficient from the moment we booked our stay. She organised a taxi from the airport and he was waiting for us. We had a couple of questions and she replied promptly. The view was wonderful and encompassed the whole of the bay and there was always something to see/going on. It could get a little noisy at night as the locals dined out exceptionally late -the restaurant was still receiving guests at 11pm! Thank you Leti

Great location in one of the most beautiful places in Sicily. Apartment is well laid out and convenient. Located close to a large selection of wonderful restaurants and related amenities. Very helpful house keeper and who was always willing to assist. As for Antonio, easy to communciate with and very responsive. All in all spent a wonderful month in Antonio’s place and would recommend it as a great place to stay.

Place of Michelle and Doriana was cozy and in a great location with calm neighbourhood and beautiful view with the terrace. Everything looks as described and the recommendations were really helpful. Not sure really what negative we can see about it.

Perfect position for seeing the best of Cefalu. Comfortable, clean, quiet and equipped with all we could need, with so many thoughtful touches. Federico is a fantastic host from start to finish, collecting us from parking, suggesting restaurants, beaches, offering to help pick up guests from Palermo and much more. Grazie di cuore!

Our stay was beyond our expectations. The apt was clean, well appointed and the hosts were both very helpful and easy to communicate. The beds were very comfortable and kitchen was fully stocked with glassware and dishes. The view from the rooftop terrace was magical! Beautiful view of both mountain and sea. The hosts were very helpful in securing a taxi for our trip to airport. Rob and Francesco were wonderful hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at Enricos apartment. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us to (a family with 2 boys 10 & 13) be very comfortable. The location is absolutely perfect with just a short walk to beautiful and affordable bars and restaurants. Panificio Bakery below the apartment was the real Cherry on top when it came to having beautiful fresh pastries for breakfast on the spacious balcony. For those interested in the Culture & History of the Island Enrico provided perfect information of how to get there etc and was always very responsive if we needed a little help via text message. Mondello is an excellent base for a holiday to Sicily with good transport links everywhere. Finding free local parking close to the apartment for our hire car was easy. We give Enrico & his apartment 10/10 for everything and would definitely use it again. Thank you, Enrico, for everything.

Angela was a very kind hostess! She gave us a very warm welcome. Communication with Angela was very pleasant and easy. She recommended that we visit the pizzeria right down on the beach for the evening, which was really great and certainly the best pizza of the entire vacation! We liked the apartment and the terrace even better than what was evident from the photos. It was very clean, the kitchen was equipped with everything necessary. Likewise the bathroom, which also had a washing machine. All around it was a great apartment with a great and quiet location, a few meters from the center of Balestrate. It was also great that the apartment was a few meters from the beach, so you could enjoy a nice sunset on the beach with a beer or wine. Should we decide to stay in Balestrate again for a few days, we would not hesitate and would immediately like to stay with Angela in the apartment again!

Probably the best airbnb I have stayed.
