Prime location, centrally located near everything: bakeries, fruit & vegetable markets, fish markets, pizzeria, etc. We were here for a week and could live like locals, thanks to Gabriella for the room upgrade gift. The kitchen had everything you need. Laid back and relaxing. Beautiful view of the church on one end and the ocean on the other from the balcony. Grazie mille Gabriella for everything, including arranging a ride for us to Castellamare. You are the best host - so kind and accommodating. You helped make us feel at home. We definitely would stay here again!

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!

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.
A very nice hotel with very friendly staff who is very engaged and want to make your stay as nice as possible
The pool area was decorated with lighting that looked really beautiful in the dark
The room and bathroom were very clean and all in all it was a nice stay
The location of the hotel is perfect as you only need 15-20 min to the next larger cities
Breakfast was good too, it was a typical Italian breakfast with a lot of sweets but also a lot of fruit
House fully renovated in the center of Balestrate. The property is calm, clean, well equiped with great hosts.
All accomodations are near the house. You can park easily behind the house or in the streets around. Balestrate's sand beach is 5 minutes driving. All equipments are new and it is well decorated. We enjoyed the rooftop with seaview and wonderful sunsets. The breakfast is so yummy, you can enjoy it at "Piazzetta" in front of the house.
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.
An amazing villa in 5 minutes to the beach and beautiful view from the window on the landscapes and the sea.
Cleanliness and calmness are guaranteed.
The owners are so friendly and nice, they have their own bar in the centre of Balestrate, where you can have a delicious breakfast( really the most delicious in the village)
I give 10 stars out 10.
Thank you a lot. i hope wi will come here again
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.
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.
Everything! This hotel was one of the most memorable stays! The owners and their family are amazing, the pool has exeptional view, restaurant makes really deliciuos food and amazing wine list! The hotel has everything for you to stay there for couple of days and not to go anywhere
An outstanding experience, not least because of the kindness and availability of the host, not to mention the position of the apartment right in the middle of Balestrate, only a few minutes' walk from the beach, good restaurants and shops. We will be back!
We had a wonderful stay in Nômade. This place is really charming, quiet and relaxing. Also, it is well located to visit the beautiful region of west Sicily. The hosts are really welcomed, and breakfast really good. We highly recommend this place.
The clean room and the friendly host. The rooms are very clean and the view from the terrace is amazing. The host is very helpful and friendly. Definitely a recommendation and we will come back if we go to Sicily in the future.
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
Nico is an excellent host.
He knows everybody in the town, and he is very helpful.
Thanks for him we had an excellent time in Balestrate and felt in love with Sicily.
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.
