Très bonne étape
Nous n'avons dormi qu'une seule nuit dans la Maison bleue, mais c'était une très bonne étape. Stefano est très agréable et l'appartement que nous occupions à 5 (dont trois enfants) était très propre et fonctionnel. La petite piscine permet de se rafraîchir après la visite exceptionnelle des mosaïques de la villa romaine de Piazza Armérina. Bref, c'était court mais c'était bien !

Ottima scelta
Casa blu è molto bella, in un ambiente tranquillo in piena natura. Ma lo stesso si trova in un posto strategico per vistitare i luoghi turistici più noti nella sicilia sud-ovest. La casa è molto curata, tutto nuovo, arredata con gusto e non manca proprio niente. Stefano è molto gentile e sempre disponibile. In breve, assolutamente consigliabile, meglio di così non saprei.
