We stayed in this beautiful house with 3 families (8 adults and 7 children). The premisces with its lush gardens and wonderful pool area is really stunning! The surrounding area (town) did not seem too interesting and it was far too hot for our children (ranging 2mths to 9y) hence we stayed at the house and really soaked in everything it has to offer.
The communication with Livia and Irene was smooth. All issues were solved rapidly and we had nonna maria cook for our party on a couple of nights which i can highly recommend as it takes away the burden of cooking! Thank you for the relaxing stay!
We absolutely LOVED the Villa Partana. Livia is fantastic and ensured every detail of the stay was met. The listing cannot do it justice, it is more grand and spectacular in person. 14 of us stayed here very comfortably to celebrate my friends 60th birthday. The wellness room with hot tub and dry saunas was wonderful. We cooked many dinners in the fully equipped kitchen. Livia helped us arrange a wonderful wine tour nearby, drivers for transport and olive farms. You can easily walk to town. Plenty of bathrooms, robes in each bedroom. The views are amazing!!I cannot wait to come back. I would always book a stay here. Thank you Livia
A hidden sanctuary, true perfection for our wedding
We stayed at Villa Livia for three days and hosted our wedding there. It is beyond amazing, we were in awe of everything. The villa and grounds are 10 times better than the photos show. Every corner of the villa and guest houses are pristine and covered in antique furniture and artwork. The houses and grounds are huge. Our wedding was 20 guests and there was ample space for everyone to stay. The wedding vendors couldnât believe the space and how perfect it was for a wedding. We had our ceremony under the olive trees in one section of the garden, our cocktail hour by the pool and our dinner on the grass next to the pool. The grounds were so lush that we didnât even need to leave the villa for our wedding photos. It is truly dreamy. We had one dinner and one brunch catered by Nonna Maria and it was excellent, sooo much food. Livia was helpful and easy to contact. The whole place is pristine clean. Truly perfect and a wedding location dream. Michaela from My Sicily Wedding coordinated the whole thing and would be a perfect contact for anyone thinking to host a wedding in that location.
Itâs hard to accurately describe how wonderful Liviaâs Villa is, so Iâll offer this comment from a friend who arrived first: âItâs like stepping into a dream.â 15 of us traveled from the US and a few points in Amsterdam to celebrate my husbandâs birthday. No one wanted to leave.The property is gorgeous, Livia is an exceptional host, the town and many amenities are close by, and Nonna Mariaâs dinner on the first night was wonderful. Weâd absolutely come back and are already planning our trip!
Villa Livia is beautiful, with exceptional gardens and facilities. Our host and her staff were attentive and responsive at all times which made for a great family vacation, suitable for all ages.
Many bedrooms to meet desire for privacy, excellent beds and pillows, well equipped kitchen.
Cosy house that felt like a real home.
Some rooms should in our opinion have new A/C's.
We injoyed our stay at Villa Livia very, very much.
The photos do not do it justice, the place is beautiful, lovely grounds, large pool , sauna, steam room, outside oven and bbq.
Had a lovely meal cooked by Nonna Maria and team one evening.
Any issues we had were dealt with straight away, we all had a fantastic week
This villa was an incredible place to stay, every room was beautifully decorated and with lots of though for the guests. Probably the best equipped kitchen I have ever had from a holiday rental, and I love to cook , so it was perfect.however, the pool area and amazing grounds are really what makes this an amazing holiday home. The pool is huge, with our door seating and sun beds, and fab outdoors BBQ and pizza oven. You swim surrounded by beautifully planted gardens. I would book this villa again as I absolutely loved it and perfect for multiple families as there is so much space. Finally, the host was incredible. We had a disaster at the original villa we had booked and she could not have been more helpful or accommodating. She really went out of her way to ensure our stay was perfect.
Villa Livia is beautiful and spacious
We were a group of 21 + a baby. We had everything you need - sun loungers, pool towels, equipped kitchen, pizza oven, air-con and so much more.
A couple of restaurants walking distance from the villa but we didn't go to them so can't comment on what they were like. There's a couple of supermarkets within 5-10min drive which have everything that you need.
We hired one car for the villa, which was definitely needed for shopping trips. If we had days out of the villa, Livia arranged a bus - approx. cost to and from beach was âŹ300. The bus drivers were so friendly and accommodating.
We went to the beach at 'Selinute' and it was fantastic - sun loungers to rent and the restaurant was delicious
Winery tour at Planeta Ulmo. Really worth a visit, interesting, great wine and food to accompany the tasting.
Nonna - we had Nonna for 3 nights out of the 7. I highly recommend doing this, particularly if you're a large group. Nonna and her delightful team, set the table, cooked a four course meal and cleaned up afterwards. The food was delicious, her tiramisu was the best I have ever tasted. Approx cost each night was âŹ700
Livia and Irene - they are the highlight of renting the villa, I can not praise their service and help enough. Livia answered all my questions within minutes of me sending her a message, she arranged our beach day, many different transport needs, winery and Nonna - nothing was a problem or inconvenience.
As other reviewers have mentioned the pictures of the property do not capture the true beauty of Liviaâs home. Absolutely gorgeous 18th century property. Updated elegance at its finest, with high end appliances (kitchen is full of anything youâd weâd), with attention to even the smallest detail (e.g. pool floatees, ping pong table with paddles and balls, etc.). Property is very well maintained, and thereâs an on call property manager who helped us multiple times throughout our stay. Highly recommend Liviaâs home.
Luxurius old palazzo like villa in quiet Sicilian mountaintown, central location in western Sicily close to good beaches and old ruins. Very large paradiselike lush gardens and poolterace.
Perfect for groups and large families, we were a family of 17 and had the greatest time, chef Paolo cooked a fantastic sicilian birthday dinner for us.
The owner Livia gave a fantastic greeting and the best service.
14 adults and 3 children stayed here for our family holiday. The layout was great. The main house has 6-7 double bedrooms over 3 floors then there are 2 detached bungalows. Each bungalow has 2 bedrooms. One with a double & a single, the other with a double and a twin. Each also has a sitting room & kitchen. There is a detached building by the pool with a ping pong table and shower room, there is another detached building with an indoor square shaped jacuzzi/spa plus a steam room & sauna. You have to pay extra for the steam room and sauna to be switched on, this was the only negative surprise. The facilities are fantastic, a large outdoor bbq and sink by the pool, an outdoor hot tub, plenty of space to spread out. We hired a chef one evening and 3 fabulous local ladies cooked us a traditional 3 course Sicilian meal which was delicious! They did everything-laid table, served, washed up. It was about 280 euros plus the food shopping bill, so divided by all of us it was cost effective. The town of Partanna was not the prettiest & not aimed at tourists but at night it was more lively with locals. The nearest beaches are 30 mins away. Livia was very good at responding by texts. A gardener came discreetly every morning. Itâs a superb place for a family get together. My only issue was I wished that weâd been in an area further north by the coast-the town of Castellammare del Golfo/Scopello with more quaint towns and coves. We hired a boat there, no licence required! Thank you đ
The villa was so much more than expected. Beautifully decorated and furnished. More than ample room for our group of 12, with plenty of hideaway spaces when we wanted to be alone. The grounds were beautifully landscaped along with statuary and beautiful fountains throughout. The kitchen was complete with everything that was needed. Our hostess even suggested dinner by Nona Marie and she came and cooked for us...the best Sicilian dinner of all the wonderful food we had tasted. The pool was fantastic and along with the hot tub we were happy just being there. Our only regret is that we had to leave. We would definitely recommend this location.
My family of 16 (ages 6 to 73) stayed here in the summer hosted by Livia. Everything about the experience exceeded our expectations. The villa itself, the hospitality, Nonna Maria serving traditional Sicilian food in the garden. We traveled extensively throughout the western side of Sicily. Every direction is an adventure. Our group will most definitely hope to return. Iâm grateful for such a lovely experience.
8 friends rented Villa Livia to celebrate birthdays. Livia couldnât have been more helpful before & during our stay. The pictures do not do this villa justice, it is just stunning. We arrived early due to our flights and the staff were really welcoming getting us some food and wine. Irene especially was amazing by kindly taking us to the supermarket to stock up. We cooked a couple of times during the week and there is substantial cooking facilities & crockery. Livia suggested a vineyard tour at Planeta Ulmo which was brilliant, we had the tasting with the lunch - highly recommend. Livia also arranged someone to pick us up from the airport and also take us on our various trips around the island. He was reasonably priced and super helpful. The property was huge as well as the grounds. The pool is stunning and plenty of sun beds, towels are provided. It was amazing to see the swifts swoop down to the pool to take a drink frequently throughout the day. The beds are really comfy & we all slept really well. Iâd highly recommend Villa Livia for a large party of travellers!
An absolutely beautiful villa with an amazing host !!
We book villa Livia for a large party of 18 for a special birthday celebration. Our age range was from 70 to 7 and worked very well as it incorporated different family groups.
Livia was amazing, very patient, very helpful with booking local restaurants and she also organised a local masseur to visit, which was a real plus.
The whole villa is beautiful, and as other guests have said the pictures do not do it justice.
The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was a little smaller than I thought but fully equipped even for our large group.
The gardens were beautiful with lots to explore and the hidden jacuzzi area was lovely to have a little quiet time.
The younger members loved the pool and having WiFi is always a bonus with teenagers.
Partanna is not a tourist destination but there are a few lovely churches and a museum to visit if you feel you need to leave this beautiful Villa.
Amazing Livia and thank you.
A very lovely house where we spent a week. livia was the best host and recommend lunch restaurants for us every day. They were allways great . The chef was excellent. She cooked good meals for the kids and for the adults. The pool and spa was excellent. We has a really great stay. Thank you
