Review Added: 24/09/2006

"We enjoyed our two week stay at Localita Fontanacalda enormously. Our
apartment was spotlessly clean on arrival, and the welcome hamper was
generous and much appreciated. The details given on the internet are
accurate - and not exaggerated at all. Doris Ackermann was extremely helpful
with all our queries and requests. The rural, peaceful setting with easy
access to splendid ancient and medieval sites as well as to attractive
beaches was just right for us. We hope to return before long. We can
thoroughly recommend Fontanacalda!

Review submitted by Linda from London (Submitted: 21/11/2005)

"The apartment was in excellent condition, nice balcony, lovely quiet location, very clean and much care had been taken to think of things that guests may need or want to borrow such as picnic bags/candles/leaflets about places of interest. Doris, the owner who lives on site, was very helpful and answered questions we had about the area. A car is needed in this area as the apartment is located slightly out of the town/away from the beach but only 5-10 mins away by car."

Review submitted by Alexandra from Dublin - Ireland (Submitted: 05/10/2005)

"Absolutely wonderful area close to the sea and historical Temples. Quiet and pleasant atmosphere with Doris (Landlady) and her delicious homemade Lasagnes! We definitely recommend this location! Doris, next time that we are in Sicily we visit you! Thank you again for everything! That was such a great time!"

"Hi , just a word to say thanks for renting your apartment to us , we got home ok - tired and cold !! We really enjoyed staying and hope to return again next year , and i just found one of your plug adapters attached to my cell phone charger that i took out the fan plug - oops sorry ok .

Bye and see you again
......

Dear Doris, just to say a big THANK YOU for making our short stay with you
so wonderful, we enjoyed it so very much and the appartment was superb.
The area round Sciacca we thought was excellent, it has not been taken over
by tourists/commercialism and will recommend your appartments to friends.
Hope the Olive tree continues to thrive - regards and best wishes to you,
your husband, your son, the 2 cats and the dogs. thanks again
.....
