Un magnifique cadeau pour tous ceux qui choisiront cette location !!
Pros:

Les propriétaires sont des personnes exceptionnelles qui agissent avec le cœur, avec spontanéité et authenticité et qui ont un sens aigu du service, c'est-à-dire qu'ils feront tout pour votre confort ; leur location est à l'image des propriétaires, très belle, très spacieuse, très confortable, avec un petit-déjeuner qui est très bon. La situation géographique du lieu est tout simplement exceptionnelle, un écrin de verdure où la végétation est flamboyante, où la végétation est reine et où le calme règne. Je suis resté trois semaines et j'ai pu apprécier l'extrême beauté de ce lieu et des lieux environnants, un émerveillement !! Quant au village qui est juste à côté, à 5 minutes en voiture, là aussi, vous n'y trouverez que du bonheur, avec des Siciliens qui parlent avec le cœur, des commerçants qui proposent des produits d’excellente qualité. Le cœur et l'émerveillement, voilà ce que vous vivrez si vous y allez. Cet établissement sera un magnifique cadeau pour tous ceux qui iront. Merci à leurs propriétaires !!

Cons:

Absolument rien !!

Pros:

La persona che ci ha accolti è stata molto premurosa, discreta e gentile e ci ha offerto una colazione abbondante con degli ottimi cornetti caldi

Cons:

il bagno è molto stretto con i servizi igienici solo per handicap senza un appendino per gli accappatoi e asciugamani, e cosa che odio è la mancanza del bidet.

Il tuo posto nel cuore delle Madonie
Pros:

Ti senti a casa.
Ad accoglierti i proprietari della struttura che con calore e gentilezza ti portano nell'alloggio.
Pulizia, temperatura perfetta, profumi che ti riportano al bosco...
Al risveglio, vista sul foliage e colazione con prodotti selezionati dai proprietari in base alle tue richieste. Super consigliato!

Soggiorno confortevole in mezzo alla natura
Pros:

Appartamento spazioso con un bel caminetto, che Letizia ci ha fatto trovare già pronto da accendere e con legna sufficiente per tutto il soggiorno (e letto comodo!). Colazione semplice, ma gustosa e genuina. Host affettuosissima e contesto molto bello. Alla prossima! ❤️

Séjour très reposant caché dans la verdure
Pros:

Le petit déjeûner était servi sous une tonnelle avec un point de vue magnifique sur la montagne.
Il y avait des massifs de fleurs partout et il régnait un calme parfait.

Cons:

Une des fenêtres de la chambre donne sur le jardin mitoyen de l’appartement voisin.
Ce qui peut être gênant lorsqu’il est occupé mais personnellement je n’ai pas eu cet inconvénient.
