Phenomenal Experience
You cannot get any better than our hosts. They were generous with their time, advice, food, suggestions. Everything we could ever ask for. It was great to be able to have Francesco who speaks english and his wife there for anything we needed.
The space is quite large - all rooms are a very good size, including two of the kitchens and the 3 bathrooms. A short drive from Mucho Gusto (the best gelato ever), and grocery stores. At our highest we were 19 people and we all slept comfortably in rooms. The highlight was the prepared dinners that we booked for two nights. The food was incredibly delicious with enough leftovers for a lunch the next day. Highly recommend!

La Sicile authentique
Très bon accueil de la part de notre hôte Très bon accueil de Francesco notre hôte, toujours serviable. Il nous a renseigné sur les environs (restaurant, sites) et nous avons eu droit un soir à un repas maison typiquement sicilien un vrai délice. La bâtisse est magnifique. Un endroit idéal pour les groupes où il fait bon se retrouver autour de la belle piscine. L'intérieur est authentique pas très moderne mais largement suffisant pour les vacances. Je conseille ce lieu.

Great pool, not far from city center and beach (with car). Great hosts
We were a large family group and had the whole place (3 apartments and 1 double room) to ourselves. For groups, this place is ideal, because you can cook and eat together. But still you can get out of each other's way, if you want to. Francesco was very accommodating regarding the big group and the family visits from other parts of Sicily. To the beach and the city center (very nice) it is a 10 - 15 minute drive. Mazara del Vallo is a great location for exploring the western part of Sicily.
+ Very nice large pool
+ Plenty of places to sit in the sun and shade and eat outdoors
+ Beach towels are there and for free. Francesco also offered us umbrellas for the beach
+ Francesco and his wife cooked for us for a birthday dinner. The food and wine was plentiful, delicious and the price was fair
+ Francesco is very helpful with tips and information. Although he and his wife live right next door on the property, they take care that you still have your privacy
+ Francesco speaks very good English, so if you don't speak Italian you can still communicate very well
+ The apartments are clean
+ The beds are very comfortable (although some of them look very primative)
- The furniture is somewhat old/used. It looks like furniture that no one would want in their own apartment, but for a vacation apartment it is "good enough"
- The rules regarding the air conditioning are expensive. AC costs 50 Euros extra per week. That would maybe be OK. However, this is not per apartment, but per unit. So if you have an apartment with 3 air conditioners, this is 150 Euros extra on top of the price (which isn't particularly cheap)
- As mentioned, we were a big group and we had the whole place to ourselves. As the apartments are all interconnected and the outside areas are common, some people might not feel comfortable renting just one apartment with strangers in the remaining apartments

an amazing week in sicily!!!
We stay in this lovley ancient house with a group of 12 people. scince now the best house we´ve ever rent! everything was just perfect, the house was clean and tidy up like a 4* hotel. for sure in this place there is even more space than just for 12 people. really big! the pool was perfect temperated for the sunny weather and owner Francesco cleaned it every 2 days for us. Francesco and his wife take care of us all day long if there was a question or any special wish. in the first days we make nice and loud partys in the garden and it was absolutly no problem for them. Helpful all the time and shows us all the nice places in the region Trapani, for example the best beaches, restaurants, wine testing, Restaurants, Pizza service, etc...
Me and my girlfriend make after that week a tour with the camper around sicily and francesco help us to plan the tour with the best and nicest spots all around the island.THX! for the last evening he was driving with us to the fishmarket to get much more better prices and the freshest things. Thanks for that! it was a meal we will never forget :)
I am sure every guest from Francesco will recommend the Baglio Sciacca. Such a nice old tipical sicilian place. We are all very happy that we choose this place! ...hope we´ll see us again my friend!!! Thanks for these nice days!!!
...at least the 5 Stars here are not enough:)
