I visited Sferracavallo, a quaint seaside suburb of Palermo, with a friend who stayed with his family just a few doors down the street from Il Golfo.

Every morning we looked forward to our varied breakfast conversations. Our room was very clean with all the necessary amenities. If there was anything we needed, Marta and Fabio were more than happy to... More

Although Marta and Fabio are both very young, there charm and helpfulness were unsurpassed. They showed... More

I have owned 1825 Inn B&B (Hershey, PA USA) for five years now and have never stayed in a B&B. I went all the way to Palermo, Italy for my first stay.
