The 2-room-holiday letting Sole with a large terrace to the south side is located on the first and second floor of our holiday house Casa Maria. As the name suggests, it is decorated in warm red and yellow colours and exudes a pleasantly warm atmosphere.

You enter the holiday letting into the sleeping area with three sleeping places. The double bed is located in a niche at the end of the room. The third sleeping place is a high bed and is located on a small gallery. There is also a toilet on this floor.

The staircase leads you to the living and dining area with kitchenette. The kitchen is fully equipped and also houses the washing machine. In addition to the dining table with chairs, the living room also has a small sofa and satellite TV. On this floor there is a bathroom with shower.

The best comes, as usual, at the end: The large terrace to the south side can be entered from the top level of the apartment. It is equipped with furniture, so that you can not only have breakfast here, but also relax and soak up the Sicilian sun.

Holiday letting Casa Sole is beautifully furnished and has a particularly warm and cosy atmosphere.

Santa Flavia – A hidden treasure on the outskirts of Palermo

Off the tourist routes but worthy of any guide book, this quintessentially Sicilian little town is an undiscovered jewel. A quiet, well maintained residential neighbourhood served by a railway station in the centre of town, Santa Flavia is the ideal base for those who want to discover the real Sicily without renting a car.

In twenty minutes you can be in historic Palermo, and within an hour you can be running your toes through the fine golden sand of one of the most beautiful beaches on the whole island, in Cefalù.

In lively and welcoming Santa Flavia, everything you need is close at hand. The smell of fresh bread and coffee is everywhere throughout the day, and for fruit and vegetables you don’t even have to leave your house – experience the timeless charm of buying succulent, locally grown produce from grocers who weave through the streets and alleys of town bringing their delicious fare direct to your door.

With its sister town of Porticello, Santa Flavia forms the second largest fishing port in Sicily. Every day you can try your hand at preparing a new fish dish with the most freshly caught fare money can buy. If you’re not an expert in the kitchen, the town is packed with wonderful fish restaurants to cater to every palate.

Up the mountain in the morning with an unforgettable sea view, lunch and siesta in your holiday letting, to the beach in the afternoon and to the new trendy pizzeria in town in the evening.

These routes are perfect for a bike – or rather for the right bike like the one in the photo above. Because you can even get up the mountain on one – and you don’t have to be an athlete to do so.

So it fits perfectly that the local company Sicula Bike rents out bicycles to guests of this holiday letting.

On this page you will find information about the bike and here is a list of the accessories supplied and the prices. Sicula Bike would like your bike to accompany you throughout the holiday. The minimum hire period is therefore 7 days.
