We were on a big road trip and had lots of driving. That made it difficult to know our exact arrival time and also we would mostly arrive late because we had a long stretch of drive in the evening. One of the major reasons we booked Villa Princi was that it clearly stated 24h check-in and 24h front-desk. Sadly this is not true. It’s a B&B after all. The same afternoon we realized we did not get any checkin information. Then it was very hard to reach anyway which caused some stress for us and thoughts of “What if we arrive and nobody is there? We can’t get it? Do we need to sleep in the car”? We eventually reached Francesca and she was very nice. I give her the benefit of the doubt because she was traveling and coming back home the same day as us at midnight. So I am still giving a good review. But I suggest to update the 24h front desk accordingly. Apart from this, the Villa is very nice and we are sad we couldn’t spend more time. Staff (and Francesca) ended up being very nice and helpful. The breakfast was very good. And parking was very easy too. There are enough spots in the driveway.

Lovely view
This was a lovely hotel. In a quiet neighbourhood but still within walking distance of train station. The owner offered to pick us up and drop us off but we preferred to walk. The room was large with a beautiful view, comfortable bed and very good bathroom. Everything was clean. There was also a nicely landscaped garden and outdoor seating areas. Breakfast was freshly made and more than sufficient. I would happily return.

Excellent Stay! We were picked up in a Porche. We stayed in the apartment unit on the Villa Princi property. We received a discount with a local restaurant for being a Villa Princi guest. Our family plans to come back and stay again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!******

Ho recentemente soggiornato al B&B "Villa Princy" e posso dire che è stata un'esperienza fantastica. Situato in una zona tranquilla, ma comunque vicino alle principali attrazioni turistiche e sl terminal dei traghetti, questo B&B offre un'accoglienza calda e familiare. Le camere sono spaziose, arredate con gusto e dotate di tutti i comfort necessari per un soggiorno piacevole. La pulizia è impeccabile e si nota l'attenzione ai dettagli. Ogni mattina, la colazione è un vero piacere: una selezione di prodotti freschi, dolci fatti in casa e un ottimo caffè che ti dà la giusta carica per affrontare la giornata. Un altro punto forte di "Villa Princy" è l'ospitalità dei proprietari,sempre disponibili e pronti a consigliare i luoghi da visitare nei dintorni hanno reso il nostro soggiorno ancora più speciale. In sintesi, "Villa Princy" è il posto ideale per chi cerca relax e comfort. Non vedo l'ora di tornare!

Zeer prettige ontvangst nadag we vanaf het station en de haven waren komen lopen. De eigenaresse had geprobeerd ons te bellen om ons op te halen van het station. Het is een kwartier lopen, maar met bagage de berg op is wel een uitdaging. Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst in een prachtige villa met brandschone kamers. Mooi uitzicht over zee en naar Sicilië.

Bien sûr cet endroit est somptueux, la vue est magnifique à partir du balcon, le lit et la literie sont impeccables mais la qualité de l'accueil n'a pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes. J'ai besoin d'un frigo pour conserver l'insuline que je dois transporter en déplacement mais ce dernier ne fonctionnait pas.On nous a demandé à quelle heure on voulait prendre le petit déjeuner et une demi-heure après l'heure fixée il n'y avait toujours personne. On a dû partir sans manger... GRRRR! Nous n'avons pas apprécié d'avoir une toilette dans un corridor ni de n'avoir même pas de miroir dans la chambre. En plus, le lieu a été difficile à trouver par le taxi, ce qui en a fait augmenté le prix . Bref, nous ne recommaderions pas cet hébergement à des amis.
