Villa Mare Ficarazzi

Det var nära havet. Fint hus och bra pool. Köket var fint. Takterrassen var jättefin och stor med fin utsikt.

Madrasserna var inte så bra.

The house is right by a beach with pebbles and sand, and the sea is clean and perfect for swimming. There is a spacious deep pool with a diving board. We loved the small terrace next to the kitchen with a sea view, and the large rooftop terrace offers stunning panoramic views. The main house has an spacious entrance room with a sofa bed, four small separate bedrooms (three with large double beds, one with a 140 cm bed), two bathrooms, and a generously proportioned equipped kitchen. In the courtyard, there is a smaller house with one bedroom, a bathroom, and a small kitchen. There’s plenty of outdoor space, shops and restaurants nearby, and convenient street parking. The host was highly flexible and accommodating.

The interior of the house gives the feeling of a grandparents' cottage that needs more care. The cleaning was done carelessly, and the house and kitchen equipment have seen better days, with maintenance being minimal. The immediate streets around are littered with trash, making walking uncomfortable. Keep in mind that you are already in the Palermo metropolitan area, and the traffic nearby reflects that.

De lokatie aan zee is mooi! Fijn zwembad in de tuin. Mooi dakterras. Het is enigszins gedateerd. Slaapkamers zijn prima. Zeer ruime keuken. 2e "huisje" is prima. Slaapkamers beneden wat muffig. Snel contact met verhuurder. Palermo ligt op ongeveer 3 kwartier rijden.

De villa is minder goed toegankelijk voor mindervaliden: villa ligt lager dan de straat, waardoor je binnen de poort behoorlijk steil naar beneden moet lopen. Hygiëne liet te wensen over, met name in de keuken. Te weinig glazen/kopjes voor de grootte van de groep, die er kan verblijven.

The pool, outside spaces, and kitchen.

Property clearly advertised as 6 double bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and was chosen for this reason! On arrival found only 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms!

We were instructed not to park on the property because the driveway drainage channel had collapsed, previously causing a guest’s car to fall in. The area was loosely covered with a plywood board. Stair and balcony railings were unstable and rusted. The outdoor shower next to the pool was broken, visibly deteriorated and unusable. An outdoor wall lamp by the pool had exposed electrical wires, presenting a clear shock hazard. Pool chemicals were stored completely exposed near the water. The pool equipment made loud mechanical noise throughout the night, and the utility room door was left open, exposing a dark, hazardous space that looked like a neglected utility basement. General cleanliness was unacceptable: floors were dirty, corners dusty, and mold was visible around the house. Cigarette butts and broken glass fragments were found under pool loungers, a serious risk for anyone walking barefoot. In the kitchen, the dishwasher was disconnected, and the open sewage pipe emitted a strong odor, which I had to block with a napkin to reduce the smell. Ants were crawling around the kitchen, and the oven was damaged and unhygienic. A rusted, broken clothes drying rack and dirty plastic carts were left on the terrace. The barbecue grill and cooking area were unusable due to rust and dirt. The listing shows a beautiful palm tree beside the pool. In reality, there was no palm tree — only a wooden stick in its place. The presence of two full-size supermarket shopping carts on the property was bizarre.

Early check in! Insane views. Nice restaurants and bakeries near by. The host, Toni had great communication and arranged transfers. Villa is great for large groups, many bathrooms and comfy beds.

Bit dated and run down. Lots of rubbish in area around villa and on beach. Few things not working on arrival, air-con remotes, pool shower and boilers were not on. There were shopping trollies, paint pots and dead plants around villa, not pleasant to look at. Not enough sun loungers and some chairs broken. Some areas, especially the floors were not very clean.

A wonderful beach home with everything a large group could desire. Pool, beach access, BBQ pit, large eating area with nearly any utensil necessary. (Two fridges, dishwasher, clothes washer, large sink). Roof patio is nearly impossible to describe how awesome the view is. A few good restaurants down the street, one incredible bakery.

We should have stayed longer.
