BelgiumGreat property and excellent host. Would stay there again!
United KingdomOh my goodness. We left this morning and already miss Sonia and her dad. Once again, the most beautiful room ever and the most beautiful hosts ever. We will never forget your kind attention, interesting conversation and all the help you so freely gave us. What a delight your family is. What a work of art you have created. Bravo!!!
USAExcellent location and a beautiful period building. Family owned and run and they made us most welcome.
United KingdomThe service was exceptional and the house a little piece of history. The building has been impeccably restored, is immaculately kept throughout and located right at the centre of the town. We stayed 2 nights and regret we couldn't stay longer. Our hosts Sonia, Nathan and Salvatore could not have been more helpful and welcoming and we hope to return again someday. it is quite rare to come across a place as unique and special as Palazzo Melluso.
IrelandExquisitely presented, immaculately clean and simply awesome renaissance decorations, furniture, including frescoes and tasteful paintings and lights. Breakfast fit for a king and hosts charming. Strategically situated in the Porto Empedocle at 15m drive from the Valle of the Temples and the unique beach of La Scala dei Turchi and to a very pleasant ‘promenade’ if waiting for the ferri to take you to the Islands of Linosa or Lampedusa, for a beautiful treat.
United KingdomExtremely well and tastefully renovated old bourgeois housing with excellent architectual solutions . When you enter the property name ''palazzo'' is justified . Sonja and her mother were kindest hosts we have had during our trip to _Sicily .
SloveniaEverything was great. Paula the host could not have been more helpful
United KingdomThe b&b is in a wonderful historical apartment in the centre of Porto Empedocle. Furnished and decorated with very good taste. The hosts are extremely kind and welcoming, enthusiastic about sharing their “treasure” wit travellers. Tue breakfast was the best of the entire holiday: supreme Sicilian tastes. The place is definitely to be recommended.
BelgiumSalvatore and Grace were so kind, welcoming and helpful. The accomodations were lovely, and the well-lit bathroom was recently updated with a wonderful jacuzzi-type bathtub. Breakfast was fabulous too! Our favorite B&B experience by far!

Host Information
Il B&B si trova all’interno dello storico Palazzo Melluso fatto costruire da Giovanni Melluso, Vice Console di Danimarca, rappresenta un esempio concreto della florida condizione economica che ha vissuto la città di Porto Empedocle alla fine del 1800 e presenta elementi originali e di pregio della scuola Liberty dell’Architetto Ernesto Basile (1857 – 1932). I proprietari che si sono succeduti hanno eseguito diversi restauri conservativi per mantenere inalterato l’impianto di costruzione originario, gli affreschi e tutti i dettagli d'arte della casa: infissi decorati con vetri e maniglie dell’epoca, mobili sono d’epoca, restaurati con cura e in perfette condizioni; mattonelle in ceramica del pavimento originario sono state dismesse e conservate e in parte inserite come riquadri nel parquet del pavimento; salone con un bellissimo camino in marmo pregiato e perfettamente funzionante.
Porto Empedocle é una città per vivere intensamente il mare! A est la spiaggia del Caos, sovrastata dall"altipiano d'argille azzurre, sul mare africano" dove nacque Luigi Pirandello; a ovest si estendono chilometri di arenili di sabbia dorata, come Marinella (2 km) e Lido Azzurro (3,4 km), attrezzati e frequentati per la balneazione; partenza in nave per l'Isola di Lampedusa, la più bella Isola del Mediterraneo. Palazzo Melluso dista 8 km da Agrigento, 6 km dalla Valle dei Templi a 3 km dalla Casa Natale di Luigi Pirandello e a 5 km dalla bellissima scogliera bianca della Scala dei Turchi.
