The hotel is located in a quiet area with two very good restaurants nearby. 5 minutes driving to the nearest town with lots of nice food places, markets and 5 minutes driving to beautiful Balestrate beach. Room was very clean. Breakfast was simple but always fresh - especially delicious fresh croissants served with very good coffee. Great swimming pool - very clean with shower outside and very comfortable sun loungers. Very friendly staff. 30 minutes driving to Palermo airport and 45 minutes driving to Palermo city. Not a lot of tourists around more local people which makes the whole experience very genuine. Highly recommend!

It was a very nice experience to stay in Balestrate again. Innocenzo and Grazia were very friendly. Their hospitality and the comfortable appartment with a beautiful view on the sea made our stay a perfect time. We will come back soon.

Balestrate is a lively small Sicilian town 30 drive from Palermo airport (Pmo). It is a good starting point for exploring Palermo and west parts of Sicily. The beach seemed a bit abundant but we were there out of tourist season. Rental car is essential as there is so much to explore, from beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters to traditional Sicilian villages and hiking opportunities.

Nice, rather calm town.
Nice, rather calm town. Typical colorful houses, narrow streets, swuare with historic church. They have at least few restaurants with typical, fine cuisine (try disiu pizza - perfect pizza; siculish - artisanal sicilian cuisine; cia vuru ri tradizioni - suprising restaurant with great atmosphere, food and interior). Beach is broad and accessible for swimmimg, a bit not clean (some plastic bottles, etc.), but maybe during the peak season they clean it better (I hope). We had great time, proces are affordable (cafe/restaurant). You may easily reach the town from Punta Raisi by public transport or use private transfer (public transport for 4 person is ca. €30 / private transport €35 booked in Balestrate Jumbo car rental).

Small quiet town.
Small quiet town. Between Palermo and Trapani. 30 minutes car drive to Palermo airport. Good for making trips to Erice, Palermo, Segesta, Monreale. Trafić was not bad at all. Instead of going by car you can take a bus.

Balestrate its nice small town.
Balestrate its nice small town. There is plenty of shops, pubs,bars and restaurants. There are nice small bakeries which amazing Sicillan bread straight from the oven. You will have choice of lovely Sicilian food to try like sweet pastry, sandwiches, pasta and sea food.
If you thinking of visiting other parts of Sicily you will need to rent a car as there isn't much of public transport, only a train but not very reliable.
There are few beaches in Balestrate.
There is also night life in Balestrate with live music and also disco on fresh air for younger population on Friday night.
There are boats to hire in Port of Balestrate.
People are very friendly and helpful with not many tourists from abroad.

The town is just beautiful, we were there at a quiet time of year in March and whilst quiet during the day it comes alive at night! The restaurants are fantastic and the people are super friendly and accommodating! It has everything you need with you having to leave if you so wish! We travelled to all the towns in the vicinity and Balestrate is definitely the most beautiful!

Perfect vacation spot to get away from the hustle and bustle .Ideally located for visiting the North coast . Great size town , not too big , not too small. You'll find food to go or mini markets nearby.And a few restaurants etc,, Or else drive 5 km to Alcamo for bigger supermarkets. Great home away from home . Hate to leave . Will be back !!!
We loved our stay. We was looking for total relax and we founded exactly what we wanted. Cecicila and Filipo are the best 👌 they arrange the possible and impossible for the guests 😃 numero uno. Barbecue was amazing and nothing missed. The local is safe, calm with a amazing view-mountain, sea and landscape 👍 if you looking for more than sea-beach and tracking or long walks across "bosco" so then better to rent a car. So.... anyway we spent fabulous holidays in Baia del Sol-Balestrate ⛱ ♥
Stanze del Mare is an absolute gem. It's very well located in Balestrate, which is a vibrant town with nice restaurants. Nicolo, the host, goes out of his way to make the guests feel happy and comfortable. The rooms are spacious, the bathroom well equipped and we even had a parking spot right in front of the B&B. We had to leave early to catch our flight and Nicolo provided us with vouchers so we could have our breakfast in one of the bars in the vicinity.
Thanks a lot to Salvatore and the whole Lombardo family for accommodating me and my friends in their amazing villa!
They were super nice and very hospitable.
We appreciated that they were cleaning the pool every morning and another bonus was also giving us fresh cornetti in the morning.
They are the only one in Balestrate in having the pool with the view as well.
I highly recommend everyone to stay here. It is super worth it!
The welcome and kindness of Antonio, a gentle and kind man who always tries to help and look after you. The apartment..neat, airy, right in the heart of Balestrate. The balcony overlooking the main street so you can watch the passagiato and the daily life of this lovely town
All the welcoming warm people we spend time with in Balestrate.
The proximity to a beautiful bakery, a fabulous fresh fruit shop and a supermarket.
The apartment is beautiful, clean, very well equipped, there is everything you need in the kitchen. 2 large terraces, big sized living room, two bedrooms. There is a huge garden with lots of plants, a grill, tables, chairs, playground for children, absolutely amazing. The sandy beach is a 500m walk, the center of Balestrate is 300m with restaurants, convenience stores etc. We visited with 2 children and had a great time.
Friendly, hospitable hostess; obliging and very helpful. The location was very convenient with good beaches 10 min drive away. Comfortable apt, all conveniences provided. The outside private patio was a bonus. A 'local' feel to Balestrate and a refreshing break from the busy Palermo swarming with tourists. Great local restaurants. Highly recommended.
A great place to go from to both Palermo (1 hour) and Trapani (1 hour) and look at West Coast beaches. To the airport for 30 minutes. Number wide. Available heating needed during the autumn season. Next to the house, a cafe with Sicily delicacies (both on-site and on-house), and a shop next to it. "You have to go to the beach with a car.
The staff were all lovely and made sure that we had and understood everything we needed. The location is right in the middle of Balestrate, so it was very easy to get around. The recommendations from all staff, including the local taxi (Milton) and all their food recommendations were perfect. The spa experience was truly lovely.
Most relaxing holiday i have had absolutely gorgeous villa pool was lovely, Roberto was very quick to respond, he called every 2 days to clean the pool first thing in the morning, 4 km's from balestrate so you would definitely need a car, Great family holiday in a beautiful location Grazie Roberto we will definetly return

Everything! It has just been a great experience. The host is amazing and extremely helpful, location is brilliant and we would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to explore Sicily!
The owner Giuseppe is an excellent person he makes sure that breakfast is ready when you get up in the morning,I would raccoment casa Ruffino if you come to Balestrate

Guisepi went out of his way to help me on my quest to find relatives in Balestrate. He drove me all over town talking to people trying to help me find them.
