“The last four days were the most spectacular when it comes to discovering Sicily, so many contrasts and so much beauty. We are simply happy and grateful that all of this happened at your place and with your help!
The warmest welcome town!!!
So proud to be your first Finnish guests :) Nähdään Suomessa! (see you in Finland!).”

Paulina and Alessandro - Finland - September 2026

“I Don’t believe a ‘thank you’ is enough. We were expecting a gorgeous place and ended up in a PALACE.
Besides the beauty of this lovely home, the way you welcomed us and made us feel at home was magically unforgettable.
We were not expecting to fall in love with Castelbuono the way we did.
I hope one day we can come back and explore much more!”

“When are you coming to Castelbuono?”

Castelbuono is a great place to visit all year round. Peace and tranquility in the winter months - great for hiking, walking or just chilling out. Spring and autumn offer plenty of activities without getting too hot! Summer is spectacular, but do expect more people attracted by the many events and festivals.
