Porto Empedocle Vacation Rentals

"The room was quaint and clean and the bed was comfortable. The owner made sure we had a parking spot right in front of the building and gave us a map and suggestions on where to go and what to do. He also made us a traditional Agrigento breakfast. "

"The Doric Boutique Hotel is conveniently located a few minutes from the Archeological Park .., Valley of the Temples. It is a lovely property where you can relax after a full day of site seeing. It is very modern & fun place to stay. "

"Amazing location ensconced in the hills surrounded by vineyards"

"Place was lovely. You need to take hot shower at night or early because they run out of hot water. Happened both days. "

"Beautiful hotel with a gorgeous garden and an excellent restaurant. Convenient to the Valley of the Temples."

"Quiet elegance, the kind of place where everything just works and is exactly what we needed. Like other reviewers, once I discovered the tranquility of Villa Diana, I wished we'd booked another night or two. Very comfortable beds, lovely linens, felt like a reset, that unquantifiable confirmation that yes, this is a vacation. Huge bathrooms with massive bathtub and excellent shower. Breakfast was lovely for several reasons. Diana makes marmalades from fruit trees on their farm and oil from their olive trees. The abundant tables also include fresh eggs from their chickens, plush cakes bursting with fresh preserves, plates of local meats and cheese, honey from their farm, and coffee any way you like it. But in addition to the lovely food, the thoughtfully set tables, and the overall elegance of the space, there is a tone of welcoming camaraderie and space for leisurely chats. In terms of the property, it is a villa with a working farm. We arrived in the early afternoon and sat for a while on our balcony enjoying the expansive view of the hills and farmlands of Agrigento. At night, it's was so very quiet and star-studded. In the morning, we opened our balcony doors to birdsong and the sound of chickens and goats. Honestly, idyllic. At the center of everything is Dario, who kindly welcomed us, showed us his land, his farm, gave us tips for enjoying Agrigento's history and engaging with its vibrant present. We hope to return and spend more time."

"The hotel is located at a good ocean facing location. However the hotel had not turned on the air conditioning yet so it was hot in the night. We opened the balcony door but there were mosquitoes came in the room and we couldn’t sleep because of that. I would suggest the hotel to turn on the AC as the area has lot of mosquitoes so keeping the windows/doors open in the night is not ideal."

"Wonderful hotel all around. Came during low season in March. Garden area is beautiful. Rooms very tastefully decorated and we had one with view of ruins. Excellent location which made it easy to walk both to historic sites and into town for terrific restaurants. Staff were very welcoming and always helpful. "

"Restaurant very poor menu probably because of low season reduced occupancy. "
