Unique Country House and Gardens

The chance to experience the beauty, peace, and quiet of the Sicilian countryside. The house and gardens are charming and exquisite. Daniela, the owner, made sure that we were very comfortable; we felt very much at home.

Like staying with family

We absolutely loved our stay! Daniela and her team are so lovely and accommodating it felt like we were staying with an aunty. Dinner was a highlight where we enjoyed a four course meal made from mainly ingredients from the property. Room was very clean and spacious and had a gorgeous shower. Would love to return to visit Casa Balata and Daniela again.

Charm Galore!

Casa Balata was a great first stop for our group of seven. The hospitality was wonderful, beautiful location, with stunning views of the Sicilian countryside in Realmonte. The grounds were beautifully maintained. The accommodations were fabulous, airy, romantic, and so very inviting, the pool very refreshing. Wonderful host, Daniela was full of love and dedication, greeted us like long lost relatives! She has put so much dedication and thought into all of the design, art work. Great spot for anyone seeking to connect with nature. Food was fabulous. Her staff served us wonderful breakfast consisting of sweets, hard boiled eggs, fruit galore. We had dinner there also, the food was traditional Sicilian fair, beautiful in it simplicity, and gastronomically stimulating at the same time. Daniela very accommodating of our food sensitivities. The dinner was intimate to our group of seven, it was a great way to begin our Sicilian adventure, having intimate discussions and laughs while sitting at her beautiful long Sicilian table. This is a perfect place to have family travel too or girls get away. It is remote so you either need to drive there or as we did we had van service throughout our trip to take the stress out of driving. Very responsive to emails prior to stay. While we were there we visited the town of Sciacca, Valle dei Tempie, Scala dei Turchi, Mandrarossa Winery, in Menfi

I will always remember our time at Casa Balata; it was a beautiful retreat! I will dream about returning

From the personal welcome to the beautiful gardens and pool, most cozy bed and outdoor lounging areas, this was a fabulous splurge! We opted to have our dinners there and enjoyed the best authentic meals we had in Sicily. Daniela and her helpers are a class act! Very helpful and friendly.

Wonderful farmhouse

Daniella has the most beautiful home she shares with her guests. This wonderful farmhouse is up in the hills with a stunning garden to enjoy and relax in, a perfect pool for a cooling dip and wonderful views. Our room and the bed were comfortable, the bathroom was modern and a cool design, and we had a private patio. Our dinner and breakfast were delicious. This was our most lovely stay while in Italy. Thank you Daniella.

Don't miss this gem!

This place is so special. Daniela's property is absolutely beautiful! The rooms are well decorated and very comfortable and clean. We had dinner there one night and the meal was the best we had while in Sicily. Daniela and Salvatore are so warm and kind. They feel like long lost family. Our only regret is not staying more than one night.

Hillside Retreat

This is a beautiful, somewhat quirky, and fun place to stay. A big reason for the allure is Daniela, who rebuilt the old farmhouse into a gorgeous property in the hills overlooking the Mediterranean. It's nicely set up with a combination of antiques, private collections, and modern conveniences. Daniela and her crew will cook and look after you, or send you off to hike the hills or tour the nearby coastal towns and ruins of Agrigento. Make sure to ask for directions before you arrive. It can be a bit tricky and the roads for the last mile are not in great repair.

House Balata is an oasis in the desert

The setting high on a hill overlooking rolling hills out to the sea was quiet and peaceful. The landscape was beautiful and native to the arid conditions with a variety of cacti and olive groves. The salt-water pool was delightful especially in the summer heat. The pebble floor made it easy to walk into without slipping. The modern rooms were impeccably clean and minimally decorated with natural fibre linens and homemade olive oil soaps and bottled water. Beds were the most comfortable. Meals were among the best we had in Sicily and the breakfast was light with croissants, fresh bread and fruit, homemade yoghurt and superior cappuccino! Owner Daniela was a friendly and super host ready to accommodate most any need. She welcomed my teen daughter like she was her own. I would stay again in a heartbeat!

Superlative agrotourism near Agrigento

What a lovely stay! We were there for only one night, but wished we had several more to spend at Casa Balata. The property is beautiful! Daniela has really great taste. Our room was stylish, but extremely comfortable. The saltwater pool is a great way to wind down a day of temple gazing in nearby Agrigento.. Daniela was so welcoming and charming. She is such an interesting person to talk to. I highly recommend the seafood dinner that you can reserve. The whole experience was one of our best meals in Sicily, from the fresh ingredients from her own garden, to the great home cooking and the delicious sepia. We took a short hike through her olive farm before we left in the morning and came away thoroughly enchanted. Thank you for an amazing stay, Daniella!
