Area seaside
The 18C Villa of the Palermo Bed & Breakfast "La Piana dei Colli", sunk in the most luscious subtropical vegetation, is situated 15 minutes away from the centre of Palermo and 5 minutes distance from the beach of Mondello.
Sicily’s mild climate will allows guests to enjoy the superb garden during all year, indulging in breakfasts, readings or simply walking around its paths.
The owner who is an expert in gardening and botany, decided twenty years ago to transform the abandoned lemon’s garden next to the house into an extraordinary place where she has now gathered a wonderful collection of rare plants. This garden is visited every year by several Garden Clubs.
At breakfast you will sample the traditional Italian "prima colazione" served with fruit from the garden and home made jams. Fresh eggs will be served if you wish. The house interior has been elegantly refurnished and it still keeps the charm of the old palazzo.
Seaside is a few minutes far from the Villa, well-known Mondello beach, and the beautiful rocks of Capo Gallo add pleasure to your journey.
Coastal boat trips (with boatman) available at reasonable prices.
The town of Palermo will require a few days to visit its fascinating historical centre (one of the biggest in Europe) the many churches, the palazzos and the picturesque markets. Day-trips from Palermo can be arranged to visit Monreale, Segesta, Bagheria, Cefalù, Trapani, Erice, Agrigento, San Vito Lo Capo.
The airport of Palermo "Punta Raisi - Falcone Borsellino" is 20 km away.
Guests staying in the B&B must have their own means of transport as the area is not served by public transportation services.

I was welcomed by the owner in a kind and caring way, right from the start she made us feel at home, and what a home, a fabulous villa with a splendid garden made of plants in harmony with each other that gave even more flavor to the magnificent residence. Staying here will give you peace and serenity, which is often not easy to find in a house that is not yours and where you stay for a few days. Highly recommended to everyone a unique experience.

A garden out of time in an ancient noble house renovated: it is all thanks to Mrs. Gabriella who welcomes us with infinite kindness. To our very comfortable room and to a delicious breakfast on the terrace with homemade sweets and jams, the pleasure of discussing with Gabriella must be added. All this makes our stay at The Wisteria leave us a magnificent memory.

The lady Gabriella who manages the property is of infinite kindness that is reflected in the B&B: a little paradise immersed in the green of the garden - time seems to have stopped here and you wouldn't want to leave this place anymore. Congratulations and thank you for everything, Isabella & family.

Nel varcare la soglia del glicine ti accoglie la delicatezza dell'orto botanico che ti ammalia, inaspettato scrigno, amabilmente e sapientemente preservato.
Impagabili gli accompagnatori (cani) scodinzolanti lungo il vialetto.
È uno di quei rari luoghi in cui si possono ancora scoprire antiche "sinestesie", ormai sopite. Poi, col passare del tempo matura la sensazione di essere arrivato in un "solacium" di federiciana memoria, mentre, fuori dalle porte "scee", troiani e achei combattono una guerra senza vincitori.
Questa "isola bianca" di omerica memoria, ha una custode, fuori dal tempo, Menmosyne, la cui missione è preservare l'integrità del luogo.
E, Se fosse una quarta dimensione.
tutto impeccabile.

The answer from the host:
Carissimo Dottor Tarsitano, grazie per le bellissime parole. Dunque oltre ad essere un medico lei è uno storico e un poeta. Non credo di meritare un elogio così prezioso ma se è vero che vi siete trovati bene qui da me io ne sono molto lusingata e spero sinceramente che ritorniate. Per me è stato un grande piacere conoscere persone gentili e raffinate come voi che apprezzano la bellezza di un fiore o di un oggetto e sanno entrare nel fascino del tempo, attività, ahimè, oggi per lo più perduta. Ora mi mancano le belle conversazioni mattutine. A lei e alla signora i miei più affettuosi e cordiali saluti. Gabriella.

Extraordinaire séjour chez Gabriella, qui vous reçoit avec générosité. Demeure magnifique du XVIII s, aménagée avec raffinement au sein d'un jardin luxuriant, la suite que nous avons occupée était parfaite, vaste et agréablement aménagée. Gabriella nous a fait découvrir la beauté des végétaux du jardin, et gouter ses merveilles au petit déjeuner. Une explosion de fraîcheur et de goût.
Et Gabriella nous a donné beaucoup de recommandations précieuses pour découvrir la beauté brute de Palerme. Attention: il faut avoir un véhicule car c'est inaccessible autrement.

Un giardino dai profumi inerbrianti, curato amorevolmente dalla signora Pucci, accoglie gli ospiti del bed and breakfast, che la signora accompagna nelle camere accoglienti ed arredate con gusto non comune. La struttura è collocata in un quartiere molto verde e silenzioso di Mondello e da essa è facile raggiungere le varie mete della zona. La colazione raffinata, servita sotto il pergolato, è perfettamente in tono con la bella villa.
