Family-friendly holiday rentals in Isola delle Femmine

Wow! From the moment we arrived Francesco and Cynthia made us feel welcome, at home and we left feeling like part of their family. The house is absolutely beautiful and we had a wonderful, private section with everything we needed - including a lovely outdoor shower, table and chairs. The private pool was perfect for a dip after our day trip to Palermo. It’s just a few minutes walk to the beautiful Mondello beach, and lots of bars and restaurants. They responded to every request immediately - even driving to the supermarket to buy us bottles of water! Cynthia even wrote a plan for us when visiting Palermo - which we used and worked perfectly. We’ll remember this holiday forever because we got engaged on the trip. But also because we met such wonderful people and stayed in such a beautiful home - thank you Francesco and Cynthia! As promised, we will definitely be back one day ❤️

We had an amazing time at Giacoma & Carlo’s villa. Everything was as the pictures in the listing and the view of both the mountains and the sea was perfect from the terrace. Giacoma & Carlo was super responsive whenever we had a question and helped make our stay perfect.

Fantastic home base to explore the west side of Sicily. We had easy visits to Selinunte, Erice, Trapani, Marsala, San Vito Lo Capo and even Agrigento. Castellemmare del Golfo is close by and has a charming waterfront with restaurants and bars. If you stay at home, there is a beautiful, heated infinity pool with great views of the sea. The kitchen is well equipped to make dinners, there is a grill, a wonderful covered patio and a washer and dryer. The kitchen is brand new. Pietro was very responsive, friendly and helpful.

We stayed at Lampeduso for 3 nights and it definitely wasn’t long enough. It’s such a great Airbnb in a perfect location. Palermo is such an interesting city, with its mix of cultures and all its gritty charm. The palace was perfect. It rained for two of the days we were there, but because the villa was so fantastic, the weather didn’t affect us at all. The place is huge, with great amenities that made a big difference—washer and dryer for our soaked clothes, umbrellas ready to go, and plenty of space to enjoy a good card game. When the sun did come out, we spent early evenings on the patio next to the pool. Honestly, the villa alone makes us want to return to Palermo.

A beautiful villa set in a lovely, peaceful area very close to the beach. The outdoor area, pool and garden were perfect for relaxing after visiting other parts of Sicily during the day and the hilight of the villa for us. A good location for exploring the north western part of Sicily or relaxing at the beach and pool for the week. Rosanna and Fulvio were wonderful hosts, everything from arranging check in, welcoming us to the villa, showing how everything works and providing restaurant and places to visit recommendations was fantastic.

The whole apartment is amazing but the roof top in particular was out of this world! To have the outside space in the middle of the city is a real treat and Stefania’s place is an oasis of calm. It is just off the main thoroughfare so brilliantly located yet very peaceful. We were two couples and there was masses of space to be together and have some privacy when wanted. The kitchen has everything and more and I think belongs to a very good cook! Stefania arranged a taxi from the airport which made arrival smooth - especially as a flight change meant we arrived late and finding the apartment without Andrea’s help would have been much more difficult. We received lots of information in advance and were given tips and suggestions for places to visit and eat in Palermo. Everyone we encountered to do with the apartment was charming and could not have been more help including the friendly neighbour and delightful housekeeper. Thank you so much Stefania. Wish the dogs were included!!

Stunning location. On the front side, the (small) mount Bonifato and the sea; on the back, hilly Sicily as far as the eye can see. Very peaceful, one can enjoy some days of calm here. Hosts are very welcoming and cleanliness was much appreciated. One point to consider for car entusiasts: in case of a lowered/sport car, the last 200m of acces road could be a challenge.

Amazing stay, very peaceful location with stunning views. We loved having our breakfast outside looking out to the sea. A good base to go out and see the many wonders of Sicily. A car is recommended to enjoy the full potential.

Wish we could stay longer and hope we can come back! Spectacular outlook from this beautiful place. So much history! It was the perfect base and easy access by foot to any sights. Peaceful yet you felt in the thick of colourful Palermo also. Kind and friendly host. Just book!!!!

a very beautiful and clean apartment, very close to restaurants and shops! would definitely recommend staying here!

Amazing stay in a great location! Chiara was super friendly and gave us lots of recommendations and areas to explore. The air con and doors muted any noise from outside and made it a lovely stay in such a central part of the old town. The little balcony got a great amount of sun and was the perfect spot for a morning coffee. Certainly would recommend this airbnb!

Loves this apartment, the decor was cute and lots of attention to detail. The apartment was spacious with more than enough room for 3 of us. The kitchen was well equipped. The area is very central to all attractions and amenities with a big supermarket close by of you need it. The host took time to check us in and gave great instructions and some great recommendations- three lf which we choose and they were excellent. Recommend.

Beautiful, comfortable modern accomodation

Guido e Francesca sono degli host eccezionali. Francesca mi è venuta incontro con gli orari sia per il check in sia per il check out ed è sempre stata molto reattiva e pronta a rispondere alle mie necessità. La casa è pulitissima e in una zona molto tranquilla e fresca, anche nelle giornate più calde la terrazza è ventilata e si sta benissimo. Tornerò sicuramente.

Meine Tochter hat mit ihren Freundinnen eine Woche in der Villa verbracht. Giovanni und sein Sohn Lorenzo waren bei allen Fragen stets erreichbar und haben sofort geholfen. Das Haus liegt direkt gegenüber vom Strand und die Mädchen konnten wundervolle Tage am Strand verbringen oder sich auch einfach auf dem sehr großen Balkon mit Strandblick sonnen. Vom Haus aus ist Palermo City mit dem Bus leicht zu erreichen und auch direkt in Mondello gibt es einige schöne Restaurants und Bars. Die Ausstattung des Hauses ließ keine Wünsche offen und es wurden sogar zu Mückeprävention Stecker für die Schlafzimmer sowie Mückenspray zur Verfügung gestellt. Insgesamt hat es den Mädchen sehr gut gefallen und sie würden immer wieder kommen:)

La casa è perfetta per godersi la spiaggia di Mondello, comoda e completa di tutto, anche del parcheggio. Benedetto è un host eccezionale, ci ha accolti anche con alcune sorprese molto gradite e ci ha permesso orari flessibili. Consigliato vivamente :-)

Quel beau séjour ! Luisa - la personne qui nous a accueillie, ouvert la maison, pris de nos nouvelles régulièrement et réglé les petits problèmes - est une perle, charmante et réactive. La maison est comme décrite, très agréable à vivre, parfaite avec une chambre "parents" au rdc et 2 chambres à l'étage pour les enfants (ce qui permet aux parents d'avoir leur bulle). Superbe piscine, grande et avec vue imprenable sur les montagnes. Le jardin ombragé et pleins de petits coins détente. Vraiment de belles vacances.

Dario was the best host ever. He was always willing to help and was flexible. The place is GORGEOUS! You basically have your own private villa. Close to Mondello beach where the sights are incredible and night life is crazy. It was a cozy spot, but had a classic Italian touch to it. I would highly highly recommend staying here. It was worth every penny.

We were a family of seven, grandparents, parents, three very active boys (ages 6-12). The owner and his wife were gracious hosts, greeting us with Easter time treats. The house and gardens are even more impressive than the description. Our beds were comfortable. The kitchens were well-equipped. We had a mishap and the host generously helped to solve it. You must have a car. The host can recommend excellent beaches and fun things to do We would love to return.

We had a great time staying at the large spacious villa. A real nice view from the terrace on the pool and sea and garden! Very friendly and helpful host Guiseppe. I can really recommend this beautiful villa!

We had the best week staying at Bruno’s house. It was even better in person than the photos which is rare! We were a group of 7 including a 2 year old and 11 week old and the villa was perfect for a family holiday. You will not beat the view from the pool area during the day and watching the sunset. There are lots of options for eating outside and sun loungers for relaxing at the pool. The house was very clean and we found everything we needed. Bruno was the perfect host, very welcoming and responsive for any questions we had during our stay and provided contact details of a taxi driver, so we could be dropped into the town when we did not want to drive. We would highly recommend staying here and would love to come back in the future!

We had a beautiful, amazing stay! We started off our trip in Catania area and finished it here. It’s only a couple min ride from the airport which was great for us since we flew out of Palermo. The home looked just like the photos. In fact, the yard/pool even looked bigger in real life. We couldn’t use the pool because it rained a bit during our stay, but it was super clean/we still had a blast and enjoyed sitting outside when it stopped raining. We traveled with 4 young children and they absolutely loved the play area on the lawn. That was such a nice added bonus. Home was spotless and had enough space to fit our group of 12. PLENTY of extra blankets and linen. Each room had AC which was nice too. Host was very responsive and great at communicating! We didn’t have any issues finding the home and we were greeted upon arrival with some yummy pies and snacks. So grateful we found this gem.

We loved our stay at Marida's and Beppe's place. The little villa's are cozy, comfortable and have all you need. Also for staying with a baby of 11 months old. The garden is beautiful and the pool is the best, with an amazing view. Good to know for young parents, the (non video) baby monitor we took with us reached from our villa to the pool! The location of the stay is a good base to explore several beautiful fishing villages, beaches and of course Palermo. The only downside being that while the closest village is at an okay walking distance, the unpaved road to walk on is not suitable for the average baby stroller. To close off, hosts Marida, Beppe (and Bonbon!) are very friendly and thoughtful hosts. With a very interesting background in science and art, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Thanks for having us!

Ich bin total begeistert von der Unterkunft. wir waren zu acht und hatten eine richtig schöne Zeit zusammen. In echt sieht alles sogar noch besser aus als auf den Bildern! Der Pool und die ruhige Lage waren einfach traumhaft. Im Haus war alles da, was wir gebraucht haben: super ausgestattet! Und Simone war mega hilfsbereit: hat uns direkt Tipps für die Umgebung gegeben und war bei Fragen immer super schnell erreichbar. Ich will da auf jeden Fall nochmal hin! Danke!
