Borgo Aranci Residence

The owners were warm and helpful, even pointing us toward places to buy good food. We were five, including children, and it worked well for our family. The immaculate property is peaceful, with a big pool that was always clean. Castellammare del Golfo is only five minutes away for beaches, sea, and lovely scenery, and nearby towns like San Vito Lo Capo, Erice, and Scopello are easy to visit. We spent a fantastic week here, and it was well worth it.

Surrounded by green hills and mountains, the complex feels especially relaxing. The villas are spaced apart enough that you don't bother the neighbors or get bothered by them, and it's very quiet. The pool is large and particularly nice in the late afternoon. It's about 10 minutes to town and the beautiful Scopello beach. I'd happily come back if I'm in the area again.

Borgo Aranci has roomy, well-kept grounds among lots of greenery, with many private villas. There's a very large, well-maintained pool with comforts including a whirlpool. I know Villa Peonie B 3, a terraced home right beside the pool, and would especially recommend it. It was clean and had everything needed.

It's around 8 km from Castellammare del Golfo, where you'll need to go for groceries. The complex has semi-detached apartments with their own entrances, front gardens, and outdoor showers; there's room to barbecue or lounge on the sofas among the greenery. A supervised pool serves the villa complex. You can get warm croissants from the café for breakfast. The property is very clean, and some apartments can be rented by guests staying with the owners, who spend the season here for peace and relaxation.
