We absolutely LOVED the Villa Partana. Livia is fantastic and ensured every detail of the stay was met. The listing cannot do it justice, it is more grand and spectacular in person. 14 of us stayed here very comfortably to celebrate my friends 60th birthday. The wellness room with hot tub and dry saunas was wonderful. We cooked many dinners in the fully equipped kitchen. Livia helped us arrange a wonderful wine tour nearby, drivers for transport and olive farms. You can easily walk to town. Plenty of bathrooms, robes in each bedroom. The views are amazing!!I cannot wait to come back. I would always book a stay here. Thank you Livia

Far Exceeded Our Expectations

It’s hard to accurately describe how wonderful Livia’s Villa is, so I’ll offer this comment from a friend who arrived first: “It’s like stepping into a dream.” 15 of us traveled from the US and a few points in Amsterdam to celebrate my husband’s birthday. No one wanted to leave.The property is gorgeous, Livia is an exceptional host, the town and many amenities are close by, and Nonna Maria’s dinner on the first night was wonderful. We’d absolutely come back and are already planning our trip!

Luxurius old palazzo like villa in quiet Sicilian mountaintown, central location in western Sicily close to good beaches and old ruins. Very large paradiselike lush gardens and poolterace. Perfect for groups and large families, we were a family of 17 and had the greatest time, chef Paolo cooked a fantastic sicilian birthday dinner for us.

Trip of a Lifetime

My family of 16 (ages 6 to 73) stayed here in the summer hosted by Livia. Everything about the experience exceeded our expectations. The villa itself, the hospitality, Nonna Maria serving traditional Sicilian food in the garden. We traveled extensively throughout the western side of Sicily. Every direction is an adventure. Our group will most definitely hope to return. I’m grateful for such a lovely experience.

Absolutely Amazing Experience in Partanna

As other reviewers have mentioned the pictures of the property do not capture the true beauty of Livia’s home. Absolutely gorgeous 18th century property. Updated elegance at its finest, with high end appliances (kitchen is full of anything you’d we’d), with attention to even the smallest detail (e.g. pool floatees, ping pong table with paddles and balls, etc.). Property is very well maintained, and there’s an on call property manager who helped us multiple times throughout our stay. Highly recommend Livia’s home.

Perfect!

The villa was so much more than expected. Beautifully decorated and furnished. More than ample room for our group of 12, with plenty of hideaway spaces when we wanted to be alone. The grounds were beautifully landscaped along with statuary and beautiful fountains throughout. The kitchen was complete with everything that was needed. Our hostess even suggested dinner by Nona Marie and she came and cooked for us...the best Sicilian dinner of all the wonderful food we had tasted. The pool was fantastic and along with the hot tub we were happy just being there. Our only regret is that we had to leave. We would definitely recommend this location.

The most fabulous villa

This villa was an incredible place to stay, every room was beautifully decorated and with lots of though for the guests. Probably the best equipped kitchen I have ever had from a holiday rental, and I love to cook , so it was perfect.however, the pool area and amazing grounds are really what makes this an amazing holiday home. The pool is huge, with our door seating and sun beds, and fab outdoors BBQ and pizza oven. You swim surrounded by beautifully planted gardens. I would book this villa again as I absolutely loved it and perfect for multiple families as there is so much space. Finally, the host was incredible. We had a disaster at the original villa we had booked and she could not have been more helpful or accommodating. She really went out of her way to ensure our stay was perfect.

A hidden sanctuary, true perfection for our wedding

We stayed at Villa Livia for three days and hosted our wedding there. It is beyond amazing, we were in awe of everything. The villa and grounds are 10 times better than the photos show. Every corner of the villa and guest houses are pristine and covered in antique furniture and artwork. The houses and grounds are huge. Our wedding was 20 guests and there was ample space for everyone to stay. The wedding vendors couldn’t believe the space and how perfect it was for a wedding. We had our ceremony under the olive trees in one section of the garden, our cocktail hour by the pool and our dinner on the grass next to the pool. The grounds were so lush that we didn’t even need to leave the villa for our wedding photos. It is truly dreamy. We had one dinner and one brunch catered by Nonna Maria and it was excellent, sooo much food. Livia was helpful and easy to contact. The whole place is pristine clean. Truly perfect and a wedding location dream. Michaela from My Sicily Wedding coordinated the whole thing and would be a perfect contact for anyone thinking to host a wedding in that location.

Amazing Magical Property

5 stars aren't nearly enough for this amazing place. It was everything we could have imagined and more. The Villa is tremendous, everything you would think when you hope to stay in an Italian villa, we felt like royalty in this magical Italian home. Livia was an amazingly gracious host who made sure we were well taken care of. And the best absolute best add on we could possibly have hoped for, she helped us find our own Sicilian Nonna, Maria who came and cooked for us for 3 nights. The food was amazing and my whole family agreed of the two weeks we spent touring around Italy including several Micehlin star resaurants, the 4 days we spent in Partanna was the best food by far and we would all like to bring Nonna Maria home with us. I have dreams of her eggplant dishes and my daughter won't stop talking about the lasagna. Everything at the property was lovely, the hot tub and pool were both fantastic and heated to a perfect temp even in November! . The beds were super comfortable. The views are awe inspring, and the gardens on the property are so beautiful. We were blessed to be able to spend time in this villa. We would highly reccomend and will definitely be back! Thank you Livia! Thank you Sicily!

Wonderful villa

Villa Livia is beautiful and spacious We were a group of 21 + a baby. We had everything you need - sun loungers, pool towels, equipped kitchen, pizza oven, air-con and so much more. A couple of restaurants walking distance from the villa but we didn't go to them so can't comment on what they were like. There's a couple of supermarkets within 5-10min drive which have everything that you need. We hired one car for the villa, which was definitely needed for shopping trips. If we had days out of the villa, Livia arranged a bus - approx. cost to and from beach was €300. The bus drivers were so friendly and accommodating. We went to the beach at 'Selinute' and it was fantastic - sun loungers to rent and the restaurant was delicious Winery tour at Planeta Ulmo. Really worth a visit, interesting, great wine and food to accompany the tasting. Nonna - we had Nonna for 3 nights out of the 7. I highly recommend doing this, particularly if you're a large group. Nonna and her delightful team, set the table, cooked a four course meal and cleaned up afterwards. The food was delicious, her tiramisu was the best I have ever tasted. Approx cost each night was €700 Livia and Irene - they are the highlight of renting the villa, I can not praise their service and help enough. Livia answered all my questions within minutes of me sending her a message, she arranged our beach day, many different transport needs, winery and Nonna - nothing was a problem or inconvenience.

Wonderful accommodation

14 adults and 3 children stayed here for our family holiday. The layout was great. The main house has 6-7 double bedrooms over 3 floors then there are 2 detached bungalows. Each bungalow has 2 bedrooms. One with a double & a single, the other with a double and a twin. Each also has a sitting room & kitchen. There is a detached building by the pool with a ping pong table and shower room, there is another detached building with an indoor square shaped jacuzzi/spa plus a steam room & sauna. You have to pay extra for the steam room and sauna to be switched on, this was the only negative surprise. The facilities are fantastic, a large outdoor bbq and sink by the pool, an outdoor hot tub, plenty of space to spread out. We hired a chef one evening and 3 fabulous local ladies cooked us a traditional 3 course Sicilian meal which was delicious! They did everything-laid table, served, washed up. It was about 280 euros plus the food shopping bill, so divided by all of us it was cost effective. The town of Partanna was not the prettiest & not aimed at tourists but at night it was more lively with locals. The nearest beaches are 30 mins away. Livia was very good at responding by texts. A gardener came discreetly every morning. It’s a superb place for a family get together. My only issue was I wished that we’d been in an area further north by the coast-the town of Castellammare del Golfo/Scopello with more quaint towns and coves. We hired a boat there, no licence required! Thank you 😊

Beautiful House and great for families!

We stayed in this beautiful house with 3 families (8 adults and 7 children). The premisces with its lush gardens and wonderful pool area is really stunning! The surrounding area (town) did not seem too interesting and it was far too hot for our children (ranging 2mths to 9y) hence we stayed at the house and really soaked in everything it has to offer. The communication with Livia and Irene was smooth. All issues were solved rapidly and we had nonna maria cook for our party on a couple of nights which i can highly recommend as it takes away the burden of cooking! Thank you for the relaxing stay!

Amazing property - had a fantastic stay

8 friends rented Villa Livia to celebrate birthdays. Livia couldn’t have been more helpful before & during our stay. The pictures do not do this villa justice, it is just stunning. We arrived early due to our flights and the staff were really welcoming getting us some food and wine. Irene especially was amazing by kindly taking us to the supermarket to stock up. We cooked a couple of times during the week and there is substantial cooking facilities & crockery. Livia suggested a vineyard tour at Planeta Ulmo which was brilliant, we had the tasting with the lunch - highly recommend. Livia also arranged someone to pick us up from the airport and also take us on our various trips around the island. He was reasonably priced and super helpful. The property was huge as well as the grounds. The pool is stunning and plenty of sun beds, towels are provided. It was amazing to see the swifts swoop down to the pool to take a drink frequently throughout the day. The beds are really comfy & we all slept really well. I’d highly recommend Villa Livia for a large party of travellers!

An absolutely beautiful villa with an amazing host !!

We book villa Livia for a large party of 18 for a special birthday celebration. Our age range was from 70 to 7 and worked very well as it incorporated different family groups. Livia was amazing, very patient, very helpful with booking local restaurants and she also organised a local masseur to visit, which was a real plus. The whole villa is beautiful, and as other guests have said the pictures do not do it justice. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was a little smaller than I thought but fully equipped even for our large group. The gardens were beautiful with lots to explore and the hidden jacuzzi area was lovely to have a little quiet time. The younger members loved the pool and having WiFi is always a bonus with teenagers. Partanna is not a tourist destination but there are a few lovely churches and a museum to visit if you feel you need to leave this beautiful Villa. Amazing Livia and thank you.

Stunning villa, wonderful hospitality

The villa is absolutely stunning. I know a few other people have said that the photos don't really do it justice - but they don't. Although it's not that far out of the town of Partanna (about a 10 minute walk, a little further to the centre), the gardens are huge and it feels completely secluded and private. Every time we walked around the gardens, we found something new - herb gardens, fountains, statues, orchards, a spa (!) - it is absolutely gorgeous and beautifully maintained. We stayed as a big family group - oldest mid sixties, youngest five months old and there were 16 of us. The layout of the house is wonderfully flexible. There are six double bedrooms in the main house, all beautiful - those on the upper floors have stunning views. There are also two dependences, which are ideal if you want a bit of separation from the house (perfect for us with a young baby so they weren't disturbed by the later dinners in the main house, but close enough that the baby monitor reached the outdoor dining and pool areas easily). The pool is beautiful. Large, a great temperature and a wonderful central outdoor space for everyone to congregate around. Livia, our hostess, could not have been more accommodating and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and it was a real pleasure communicating with her. We had four amazing meals cooked for us by 'Nonna Maria' on four separate nights - a really lovely way to eat traditional Sicilian food without having to leave the villa (so no babysitting!) and really good value too. We drove out to various places whilst there (a car is a real advantage - probably even a necessity to be honest) - including the ruins at Selinunte (impressive), the beaches at Marinella (lovely sand, clear water, about 25 mins) and Guidaloca (north, in Lo Zingero nature reserve, pebbles, bit more crowded, lovely water, about an hour). We also drove to Corleone (about an hour and 10 mins - VERY windy and potholed roads!) and visited the anti-Mafia museum. Whilst this was interesting, don't expect to find much else in Corleone (and the filming for all the Godfather films didn't take place there!). Just somewhere to say you've been... Overall, this was an amazing break - the villa will blow you away. It's just stunning. I doubt we'll ever stay anywhere like this ever again (until we come back...). Thank you Livia, Nonna Maria, Roberta and Irene for the most wonderful memories...

Séjour merveilleux en août 2019

Nous étions 2 familles avec 5 enfants et avons passé 15 jours fabuleux d’à cette magnifique propriété située sur les hauteurs de Partanna. Vue dominante jusqu’aud îles Egades, jardins superbes et intérieurs historiques raffinés en font un lieu unique. Merci à Livia et l’équipe sur place (mention spéciale pour le repas sicilien cuisinée par la Chef organisé par Livia à notre demande), a leur réactivité et souplesse qui ont facilité ces belles vacances. Les tortues du bassin et perruches d’extérieur manquent aux enfants.. J’espère avoir l’occasion d’y revenir prochainement..
