“Lovely place but disappointed that they were not "responsible"”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We are all animal lovers and none of their male dogs were "fixed". They let them go off and have their fun getting stray females pregnant. And than those poor pups either starve to death or worse(yes folks that is the life of a stray). .We were all upset by this as the owners are smart people who obviously care more about growing their Olive Oil business than taking care of their dog family and B&B.
The dinners were just average and that is being generous (no farm to table here except for the Olive Oil which we all raved about as it was amazing) the coffee was pretty bad, the breakfasts ok, the servers downright ignorant and the cleaning staff should all be fired. The Olive grove and grounds are lovely but the pool is tiny and the rooms although generous in size lacked many basic things that I found in other hotels in Sicily. I felt like the owners were being quite stingy....one bar of soap, no tissues nor shampoo. No soap rack, no towel holder, no hooks in the bathroom, towels were not of no great quality, room was looking worn etc. We would not go back but I don't regret our stay there...but two nights would have been more than enough!

Room Tip: No modern rooms!

“Really good, lovely people.”

Been twice to Mandranova and we've enjoyed both times, great rooms, really excellent food, friendly hosts; I would whole heartedly recommend this place if you're looking for an 'upper end' place to stay in Sicily.

I will say though that you have to be careful of your budget as eating there everyday can get very expensive, just something to be aware of.

“Total Charm”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011
3
people found this review helpful

One is welcomed graciously by hosts Giuseppe and Silvia. I was there during the olive harvest so got to see the pressing. Wonderful. I had a huge beautiful room in the newest section with a nice terrace overlooking the gardens and olive groves. Silvia's cooking is delicious and with the communal seating you get to meet lots of interesting people. This is my second visit here and I will be back again.

Room Tip: The upper floors in the original and newest building have wonderful rooms.

“Absolutely Beautiful Property”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed here with three friends for three nights while touring Sicily. The grounds, rooms, main house (where the lounges and dining rooms are located), olive and citrus groves are all amazingly beautiful and tranquil. The olives were being harvested and the olive oil presses were going, lending a wonderful smell of fresh olives to the breeze. The owners, Silvia and Giuseppe, are friendly and accommodating. This is the place to stay while visiting the Valle dei Templi outside Agrigento!

“Relaxing retreat with charming owners”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011 via mobile

We were a bit unsure of this property,after reading the less glowing reviews of other travellers.
Pleased to say that Mandranova was a pleasant and lovely as we had hoped for.
Lovely, large rooms, attention to detail and very welcoming owners.
Diner was very good with very reasonably priced wine. Altough the owners clearly state it is a working farm and not a hotel, we found it as good as the previous 4star hotel we stayed in.
Only areas for improvement: no wifi and a very small shower.
