We are a couple of travelers who were so enchanted by Sicily that our vacation fascination led to a life-changing decision: we bought a townhouse in the heart of Balestrate and transformed it into
BellaVista Apartments. Balestrate is located by the
Gulf of Castellammare – a golden arc of coastline stretching from Cape Capo Rama to Castellammare del Golfo. The local wide beaches are perfect for a morning walk, and a short trip (about 45 minutes by car) takes you to the famous
San Vito Lo Capo beach, which has been repeatedly recognized as one of the most beautiful beaches in Italy. Each apartment is decorated in a way that reflects how we enjoy relaxing – bright spaces, the aroma of fresh citrus, and a balcony where, at dawn, you can hear the sound of the Tyrrhenian Sea. We want you to feel here as if you were with good friends who are happy to:
-
recommend a café, a restaurant with the best arancino,
-
organize transfers from Palermo (25 min) and Trapani (45 min) airports or arrange a small Fiat rental for excursions around the island,
-
advise you on when the beach is least crowded and the sun paints the most beautiful colors,
-
show you hidden coves of the Zingaro Nature Reserve or the stunning San Vito Lo Capo.
We invite you to our home under the Sicilian sky and to explore the charms of Balestrate and the entire Gulf of Castellammare together!
