4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2012 NEW

Twelve of us rented the two villas at Mandranova for a week recently, hoping for a taste of Sicilian life (and food) and I think we tasted it! A cooking class with Silvia and a tour of the farms and olive oil plant with Giuseppe were highlights of our stay, while our meals in the dining room were wonderful and... More

This is a wonderfully refreshing farm 25 minutes from the Valley of the Temples. It is not your typical Agritourism it is much more up market. The nearby village is not very salubrious and the access is typical Sicilian very badly signed so don't be put off and do take a map. Once there it is a glorious oasis with... More

From the moment we arrived Silvia and Guiseppe could not have been more welcoming or helpful. A wonderful, peaceful enclave done in great style - ignore the comments about the road, yes its close by but we didn't notice it at all. We had an outstanding dinner cooked by Silvia (worth every penny) and Guiseppe treated us to a tour... More

We are all animal lovers and none of their male dogs were "fixed". They let them go off and have their fun getting stray females pregnant. And than those poor pups either starve to death or worse(yes folks that is the life of a stray). .We were all upset by this as the owners are smart people who obviously care... More

Been twice to Mandranova and we've enjoyed both times, great rooms, really excellent food, friendly hosts; I would whole heartedly recommend this place if you're looking for an 'upper end' place to stay in Sicily. I will say though that you have to be careful of your budget as eating there everyday can get very expensive, just something to be... More

One is welcomed graciously by hosts Giuseppe and Silvia. I was there during the olive harvest so got to see the pressing. Wonderful. I had a huge beautiful room in the newest section with a nice terrace overlooking the gardens and olive groves. Silvia's cooking is delicious and with the communal seating you get to meet lots of interesting people.... More

Stayed here with three friends for three nights while touring Sicily. The grounds, rooms, main house (where the lounges and dining rooms are located), olive and citrus groves are all amazingly beautiful and tranquil. The olives were being harvested and the olive oil presses were going, lending a wonderful smell of fresh olives to the breeze. The owners, Silvia and... More

We were a bit unsure of this property,after reading the less glowing reviews of other travellers. Pleased to say that Mandranova was a pleasant and lovely as we had hoped for. Lovely, large rooms, attention to detail and very welcoming owners. Diner was very good with very reasonably priced wine. Altough the owners clearly state it is a working farm... More

Last summer (2010) was our first visit to Mandranova, near Agrigento. And because all our other vacations since had to be cancelled over this past year we decided we definitely needed another relaxing stay in Sicily. To begin with 10 days Mandranova. Once again it was bliss - the people (Silvia and Giuseppe and their sons Giovanni and Gabriele, and... More

We stayed here from the 22nd - 26th August as the first part of our honeymoon and thought it was great. After so much stress planning a wedding, we just wanted somewhere we could relax and do nothing for a few days, and for that, Mandranova is perfect. I had read some negative reviews about the road before we went,... More
