Beautifully designed, this apartment is a gem in Sicily’s capital city. Two sets of French doors lead to a balcony – the perfect spot for breakfast or a glass of Prosecco in the evening. Location-wise, it’s within walking distance of the heart of Palermo (there’s also a bus stop a short stroll from this home). There are plenty of cafes and restaurants in the neighbourhood too – here you can live like a Sicilian. Apart from the wonderful apartment and address, what also makes this place special are its hosts. They really care about the little details that make you feel so welcome.

Home truths:
*This home is set over two levels.
*One bedroom has access to the terrace, while the second has a mezzanine seating area.
*While the one bathroom isn’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
