Masseria Acque Di Palermo

“A friendly welcome in rural,'authentic' Sicily”

The place has an interesting history and a remarkable courtyard. Emmanuella was a friendly and accommodating host. We arrived late, having just gotten off the ferry to Palermo, and expected a rural setting, but the location is quite isolated, making it hard to find at night. When we got there, the barrier was blocking the drive and we didn't realize we only needed to remove the padlock and push it open; this was clarified when we called from the entrance. We were very thankful for the delicious dinner Emmanuella cooked for us. We only stayed one night, so we couldn't enjoy the swimming pool, which looked amazing in its rural setting. We felt we were experiencing 'authentic' Sicily. The room and facilities were fairly basic. No breakfast was provided (was this a misunderstanding about the booking?) but Emmanuella kindly gave us tea bags, a couple of eggs that we boiled in the rather primitive kitchen, and bread.

“Odpoczynek dla duszy i ciała w pięknej scenerii.”

The owner was very friendly and helpful, the location is gorgeous, the building is well‑maintained and spacious, rooms are clean and pleasant with a kitchen and a large shower in the bathroom, and the pool offers a heavenly view surrounded by manicured greenery and beautiful loungers.

We absolutely loved staying at Emanuela's Masseria; I recommend taking your time and spending a couple of days relaxing by the lovely pool, admiring the beautiful landscape, playing with the cats, and savoring the delicious homemade food—slow living at its best. Emanuela is very likable and shares a wealth of interesting experiences about agriculture and country life, and I hope to return one day.

The masseria feels like the perfect spot if you want an authentic countryside experience, almost like stepping back in time. It's a peaceful oasis surrounded by nature where the pace slows down. You'll forget the everyday chaos and the annoying noises of modern life. Emanuela is kind and attentive, passionately caring for the place and its guests, and she also serves dishes made with very fresh ingredients. My partner and I felt pampered and relaxed a lot. We recommend it.
