Agriturismo Tarantola

What a lovely place to immerse yourself in the peace of the countryside, surrounded by vineyards as far as the eye can see. Tarantola, literally situated "at the end of the road," in western Sicily, provides rustic hospitality including clean, furnished rooms and better than expected breakfasts and dinners. Although a family member is often available to provide a wine tasting, they were otherwise occupied with the business of the winery during my visit. Nonetheless, their wine was routinely available during the day and with meals. Special thanks to the hospitality team who, among other things, helped me resolve an issue with the tires on my rental vehicle.

The people were all lovely, along with the food. Food and wine made with absolute love that we still benchmark other accommodations in Italy to, mad props to Francesco and his wife. However, stronger water pressure in the bath and the presence of a hair dryer will make this agriturismo almost perfect. Why almost? That is because the road leading into it can be better paved, a public works issue hopefully to be resolved with the local council some time... Hello Fabrizio and Francesco!

Perfect getaway. Very nice and skillful people. The food is amazing, the wine is wonderful.

We had a fantastic time and enjoyed the countryside for a few days, although not easy to find this hideaway location. Francesco our host and cook spoilt us every day with delicious Sicilian food. We discovered our new love for vegetables paired with fruity white wine from the farm. We love Francesco and his lovely wife! Grazie mille.

We had a fantastic one night stay at this property. It was the highlight of our whole trip. The rooms were comfortable but basic. However, the property and location were spectacular, and the hosts did everything to make us feel welcome. In particular, the chef Serverio, who was able to accommodate well for vegan food, which was a big bonus. Although the vegan breakfast options could be improved. No trip would be complete without wine tasting and the opportunity to hear Flippo's story while enjoying some beautiful vintages. Prices were reasonable; would recommend asking in advance to avoid some potential shocks when the bill came in.

Francesco is truly a delightful person, very helpful and friendly. So is the staff. The food is excellent, the rooms are well maintained.

In the midst of vineyards and away from inhabited areas, absolute tranquility. 'Old-fashioned' environments. Noble owner, of lineage and heart. Very hospitable and friendly staff. Traditional Sicilian cuisine and good quality breakfast. Top wines, those who can should take advantage of it!

We immediately felt at home. Available, kind, professional. Filippo and his staff welcomed us in the best possible way.

Exceptional location for lovers of silence and nature, kindness, hospitality, and availability. Away from noise and traffic, it offers good service and excellent cuisine.

Between the enchanting place and the people who hosted us, I wouldn't know where to start! Immersed in greenery and tranquility, it turned out to be the ideal place for our vacation. The location allowed us to see many places in five days. And in the evening, we really had the feeling of coming back home. Pampered with very fresh dishes and excellent wine, all of their own production! Just like breakfast. The availability and kindness of Filippo and his 'boys' leave a beautiful memory. This familiar and relaxing atmosphere, of a place immersed in nature and the silence of the countryside, made us spend beautiful days!
