Response from the owner Dear Helen, thanks for your kind and detailed review, it has helped us to improve the house. The shower cabin has actually been changed with a new, bigger one which can fit anyone tall up to 2 meters and more! Regarding Internet, the credit could have run out because of some automatic refreshing web pages, but anyway we will increase the credit. It was a pleasure to have you as our guests and we hope to see you again. Maria Grazia and Giancarlo

“Wonderful stay in charming Sicilian village”

Reviewed 29 Jun 2013

How lucky we were to choose Villa Verde for a ten day vacation in Sicily. It couldn't have been more pleasant. The town of Polizzi Generosa is centrally located; each morning we looked forward to the day's adventures [which included shopping in town and walking in the nearby woods as well as trips to Agrigento and Mount Etna]. We ate well at local restaurants and also prepared dinner at "home", al fresco. The kitchen was well-stocked and the garden overflowing with strawberries, onions and fava beans. We were always happy to return to our cozy "home" after our travels, often to relax in the yard with a glass of wine. The owners, Giancarlo and Maria Grazia, couldn't have been more helpful. We had a lovely stay filled with wonderful memories.
