Fantastic accommodation, great hospitality, lovely town
Could not fault the apartment, with a terrrace, generous rooms, and everything we could need. It was spotless, and perfectly situated in the heart of the old town. Rita and her son were SO helpful, and attentive. Just perfect.

remote location difficult to drive in
apartment on the third floor (European 2nd) is roomy with a full kitchen and washing machine. it could be updated and probably in the summer when you can use the outside deck it is lovely. the town is full of churches but the street are so narrow it is almost impossible to negotiate. parking is very problematic. there are a few choices for dinner but most reopen around 8 or 8.30.

Nice apartment in Mazzarino
We stayed at Rita's apartment in Mazzarino for five nights in April. It was in a good location within easy walking distance of the towns main streets and sights. It was comfortable and quiet and close to everything we needed. It made a good home base for driving around the area. Rita was a friendly and helpful host, who seemed genuinely interested in ensuring that we enjoyed our stay in the area. She speaks English, and gave us excellent advice on less well known towns to visit within driving distance of Mazzarino. She gave us pasta sauce that she made from fava beans from her garden and her son carried a heavy bag up and down the stairs for us. They were nice people who we enjoyed meeting. They live in the same building as the apartment, which is convenient. If you are looking for a smaller, more authentic, not touristy town to balance out your visits to all of the famous spots of Sicily Mazzarino is a good choice. We enjoyed our stay there.

appartement conforme et bien situé
je suis originaire Sicilien. bel appartement, avec une grande terrasse. situé en centre ville. vous n'êtes pas loin de la mer, d'Agrigento (temples Grecs) , Piazza Armerina (villa Romana delcasale), Caltagirone ...., J'ai petit déjeuné quasiment tout les matin à Ariston Dolci à quelques pas de l'appartement. j'ai passée deux semaines agréables. La discrétion des propriétaires que j'ai apprecié et aussi l'intérêt de que portait Concetta pour mon confort durant mon séjour. je recommande vivement cet appartement.

The Original Sicily
A beautiful apartment, fantastically located in the middle of a beautiful city. Narrow streets, lively promenades, fascinating facades, simply enchanting. We would have liked to take this great terrace with us to Germany. And the most beautiful of all is the exceptionally nice, attentive, helpful, wonderful host family. Many thanks for everything, Rita! We will come back in any case!

Muy bien el apartamento en la parte vieja de Mazzarino con una muy agradable terraza .
Rita ha sido una anfitriona 5 estrellas que hace que todo sea facil para el viajero. El apartamento dispone de todo lo necesario, incluida una botella de exquisito vino de la variedad de uva de la zona (nero d'avola). La zona es de acceso complicado por las carreteras q lo rodean en muy mal estado en ocasiones, pero la visita merece la pena. En una media hora puedes estar en la playa de Falconara y en 20 minutos visitando la expectacular villa del Casale.
