"We absolutely loved Masseria Torre Saracena and were so happy to have booked our stay here. The building is an elegantly restored historic stone structure. Each room has a small private balcony with views of the surrounding valleys, hills, town of Aggrigento, and ocean in the distance. We also had a view from the bathroom window of the stone cliffs behind us.
The property is located in the foothills outside of Aggrigento, very conveniently located to town and all of the Valley of the Temples historic sites. Breakfast was a delicious assortment of savory (cheeses, meat) and sweet (pastries), fresh fruits, yogurt, juices, and more. We would definitely stay again. "
"The property is beutiful; situated just across from the castle makes it a perfect location. The property is beutiful decorated and the room was beutiful, clean, and comfortable; the host and his sister were amazing. I highly recommend this hotel!"
"A very warm welcome from the owner and a fabulous buffet breakfast made this a most enjoyable visit. The room was small but perfectly comfortable for a short stay. The swimming pool was a welcome surprise after a hot day touring the temples! A dog in a nearby property barked most of the night so maybe take earplugs. Thank you to our hosts - especially for the recommendation of a great restaurant in the old town - take notice of their advice on this."

This charming, family-run Sicilian B&B was an absolute delight. From the warm hospitality to the cozy, authentic atmosphere, every moment felt like home. The real standout was the food—mostly homemade, such as olives, sundried tomatoes, roasted eggplants and zucchini, olive oil, etc. All bursting with flavor, and clearly crafted with love. Each bite was a delicious reminder of the region’s rich culinary tradition. If you’re looking for genuine Sicilian warmth and unforgettable food, this is the place.
A quick 20 minute drive to the valley of the temples or the Turkish steps.
Beautiful place run by a beautiful family with heart."
"The property is absolutely lovely. A quiet relaxing place. I wished I had more time to enjoy sitting outside at the property. Great variety for breakfast. Lovely countryside. There was a family there with children and the children were free to roam and enjoy the property. Would recommend. "
"Simply perfect. One of the best places we have ever stayed. The town is a hidden gem. The room is perfect. Beautiful detail, super clean and super special, lots of thought and detail. And the staff are outstanding. Super kind and helpful. Absolutely 5 star on everything. We plan on returning to Sicily just so we can stay here again. "
