Perfect for those who wish to enjoy tranquility away from the chaos and city traffic, this B&B is situated within a charming ancient farmhouse, surrounded by the countryside of Agrigento, among almond and olive trees.

Great atmosphere which we would not be able to enjoy in other places. Specially for us, we truely appreciated kindness of the family when we encountered a car trouble. Will definitely be back again at the next chance!

The answer from the host:
Thank you for your lovely review. To thank you, we’ve sent you a postcard that includes a discount—either for your next stay with us or for your friends. Souvenir postcards may be out of style, but here at San Marco, we don’t follow trends, fully aware that we’re a little outside of time and space. Vincenzo

We had a remarkable stay at this Villa San Marco. The welcome is particularly warm. The geographical location is exceptional. From the terrace, you can see three temples and the nature is lush as the garden is well maintained. The breakfast is wonderful and the food delicious. If you want to spend an unforgettable moment in Sicily, go to Villa San Marco, an exceptional family is waiting for you there. Thank you for everything.

Merci pour la très belle évaluation; si vous nous indiquez votre adresse postale, nous aurons le plaisir de vous envoyer une carte postale souvenir (avec une réduction pour vous ou pour la personne de votre choix pour un séjour à la Villa San Marco). Merci encore Vincenzo

Very enjoyable stay. A bit rustic, we really enjoyed the animals roaming the property. Hosts were wonderful and couldn't do enough for you.

The answer from the host:
Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. You were fantastic guests — the kind we’d love to have all the time! As a thank-you for your lovely review, we’d like to send you a little postcard as a keepsake. It also gives you a 10% discount (not combinable with other offers) if you show it when booking (not afterwards!). Could you give us a postal address (or more than one, if you'd like to receive more postcards)? Vincenzo e Salvatore

patrizia

Absolutely recommendable. 1. From this B&B, you can enjoy the best view of the Valley of the Temples. 2. The owners of the B&B, parents and three children, are very interesting and delightful people. 3. The breakfast is also delicious! And abundant. 4. The place is unique: the park, the house, the bedrooms, the common areas, the animals... everything is fantastic. Fortunately, we were not intimidated by some reviews that described the road to get there as a terrible adventure. I am not particularly skilled at driving, but I have taken this road several times, even in the dark and after a night of rain, without the slightest difficulty.

Grazie per la bella recensione. Per ringraziarvi vorremmo inviarvi una cartolina postale che contiene uno sconto per voi per un prossimo soggiorno presso di noi o per vostri amici. Ci date un vostro indirizzo postale? magfari via WhatsApp... Le cartoline ricordo sono fuori moda, ma qui a San Marco non seguiamo le mode nella consapevolezza d'essere un po' fuori dal tempo e dallo spazio

My husband and I stayed at this property, we liked it right from the start due to the beautiful location within the Valley of the Temples park. We had been warned that the road to access the property is not very comfortable, but still passable if you go slowly. The kind welcome from the owner's son made us feel at ease right away. Breakfast in the morning is served in the outdoor area with a view of the temples. It is rich in genuine products at zero kilometers. We had a small problem that we discussed with the owner, and he was attentive and courteous, perhaps too much... I would have never expected such a privileged treatment. We highly recommend it, especially if you have children... there are a lot of animals, a great idea to introduce your kids to them. In the garden, before breakfast, we had the chance to observe three peacocks roaming free in the garden, spectacular! We sincerely thank the managers.

Stunning secluded location in the archeological park. Great farmstay. Vincenzo and his family were welcoming and could not have done more for us. Highly recommend as it is a unique property and would definitely stay again.

Very welcoming structure immersed in the Valley of the Temples park with a spectacular view of the Temples. The family managing the structure is very welcoming and helpful. Animals and plants of all kinds make the stay enjoyable. Congratulations to Vincenzo, who knows how to entertain guests pleasantly.

While visiting Agrigento for the Valley of Temples, there are plenty of hotel choices. However, for the real Sicilian experience, we chose the San Marco-real Sicilian family villa, located inside the gardens, next to the Valley of Temples. We had a spectacular view of the most preserved temple from the outdoor breakfast area. Getting to the villa by narrow dirt road winding between the old stone walls is part of the fun (very bumpy but it's only about a minute's drive). What makes the stay special is the hospitality of the owner, Vincenzo, his son Salvatore, and the rest of the family. Highly recommend it for the hospitality, experience, views, breakfast, best location, and price. You may not like: the road there, the animals around if you are allergic, access to the dinner options (we bought our food and wine on the way from Scala del Turchi 20 minutes away and had a great dinner on the terrace).
