Description

"The "Casa del Limoneto" is a newly opened guesthouse located in the ancient historical center of Favignana. It is situated in a garden with a typically island taste, full of lemon trees, orange trees, rose gardens, and Jasmine that spread a suggestive perfume.

It enjoys a strategic position as it is only 200 meters from the main square, about 500 meters from the beach of the village called "Praia" (reachable on foot), and 50 meters from the two main supermarkets.

The area where we are located and the surrounding places offer our guests the opportunity to dedicate themselves to shopping, admire local handicraft products, enjoy the view of the places and experience the flavors of the place thanks to various food and wine itineraries, follow cultural events that take place in various places on the island.

The House has recently been renovated and expanded to offer our guests the maximum comfort for their stay. It consists of 6 rooms with private bathroom, TV, hairdryer, and air conditioning. There is also an easy access entrance for people with disabilities that will lead them to their designated room.

The Breakfast Room is located in a covered and windowed veranda, with a view of the garden. Guests can choose whether to have the first meal of the day in the designated room or in the outdoor spaces of the house, perfect for relaxing.

Hey from Gaetana

Member since August 2016 | 43,691 hits

We are a couple from the island and we have decided to restore and expand our house located in an underground garden that was once owned by my husband's parents. We did not cut down any trees to do this, because every plant in our garden deserves to stay where it is, planted with love by those who came before us. Some trees are over a hundred years old, and other new plants have been added by us. The underground gardens are located in ancient tuff quarries that were once abandoned and filled with soil and grown with citrus trees, vines, vegetables, and even flowers to be cut, which grew lushly sheltered from the winds of the island.

The structure met all expectations, as it is consistent with the images and proposals of the site. Very convenient location to the center and the beaches, but in a quiet area surrounded by greenery. The whole family made us feel at home. We particularly appreciated Alessia's desserts, they are worth the trip! Perfect for relaxing.

The rooms are very comfortable, all overlooking a beautiful garden. Breakfast is a time to dedicate to enjoying the homemade delicacies, the colors and scents of the terrace, and chatting in company.

Beautiful family-run property, welcoming and surrounded by greenery, surrounded by a wonderful citrus garden. Very close to the center and the port but in a quiet location. Giuseppe and Gaetana and their daughter Alessia are available for any advice about the island. Top breakfast! Freshly baked sweets and different every morning, and savory dishes always prepared by them. Possibility to rent regular and electric bikes. In short, really recommended and worth returning! Excellent value for money. Thank you for everything, we really had a great time.

The rooms of La Casa del Limoneto are lovely, tidy, and very clean, overlooking a wonderful garden scented with flowers and lemons. The breakfasts prepared by Gaetana are Nobel Prize-worthy, starting from the cookies, jams, and pistachio cheesecake. Gaetana, with her husband and daughters, are excellent hosts, always present and extremely helpful. Property HIGHLY recommended.

La Casa del Limoneto, a wonderful surprise! Our review starts with: read their website, read it well, without limiting yourself in any way to dream, because it will really be what they have written, even more! An intimate and familiar place, lemon, orange, mandarin, jasmine gardens, and truly exquisite people. Rooms always clean and complete with every comfort. Sweet and savory breakfasts, homemade cakes, citrus jams, what can I say? One leaves in the morning already happy! The wifi always works, which is a non-trivial plus. In the center, but quiet. For any doubt or advice, always available. The reviews read before booking fully satisfy, we are overjoyed! About them, and the beautiful island. Holiday from 1st to 10th October 2023.

The stay at La Casa del Limoneto added a unique charm to our holiday in Favignana. The family is lovely, we were lucky enough to participate in a 'couscous evening' that we will remember forever. Fantastic breakfast with different fresh cakes every morning. We will definitely come back!

La Casa del Limoneto is as welcoming as the family that runs it: there is great attention to detail, maximum care for the guest, impeccable cleanliness, and a rich breakfast, different every morning and always delicious. We will never forget the beautiful memory of the holiday in Favignana from the place that hosted us, and that's why when we return (because we will definitely do it!) we will want to stay here again. Thanks to Gaetana and Giuseppe and their kids.

Family-run B&B with a unique sympathy and cordiality, from the first moment welcomed like old friends. The breakfast is super good, homemade cakes and cookies as well as delicious jams. The location is excellent, a stone's throw and you are in the center but away from noises and various disturbances. And the lemon groves do the rest making the stay even more pleasant. We had a great time and plan to return as soon as possible.

Delightful family-run Bed and Breakfast. Surrounded by lemons, jasmine, roses. A wave of delightful scents welcomes you as soon as you enter the road leading to the property. The location is excellent, just a stone's throw from the center. Clean, spacious, and well-maintained rooms. The property offers a bike rental service. The breakfasts are very good. The cakes, by Gaetana and Rosita, are a spectacle, not to mention the Moroccan with Alessia's pistachio cream, what a delight. A beautiful and unforgettable stay. Thank you again.

As soon as you take the private road leading to the property, located 5 minutes from the town center, you are welcomed by the scent of flowers and fruit trees: La Casa del Limoneto is indeed immersed in a beautiful garden, made of bougainvillea, hibiscus, roses, and other flowers, as well as, of course, centuries-old lemon trees.\n\nThe owners are very friendly and helpful, so much so that they welcome customers as family members. The rooms are very well-kept, the bathrooms spacious and equipped with every comfort.\n\nAt the property, it is possible to rent bikes, including electric ones, to explore the island along its splendid cycling routes.\n\nThe breakfast is plentiful and includes: homemade cakes and jams, typical island sweets, fresh fruit, croissants, yogurt, cereals, focaccia, toast..\n\nLa Casa del Limoneto is indeed like a corner of paradise! Highly recommended.

È stato un piacere avervi tra noi ragazze, Vi aspettiamo anche in altri periodi e perché no? Magari anche per Natale, per farvi vedere Il villaggio di Babbo Natale nella nostra Piazza, con tutte le degustazioni che preparano i miei compaesani, per stare in compagnia nelle serate di dicembre. A presto.

fabiana

The bed and breakfast is beautiful and clean, its garden is enchanting and fragrant. The Campo family is kind and welcoming and will be able to advise you on what to do and see in Favignana. The jams and homemade sweets made by Mrs. Gaetana are delicious. The rooms are spacious, clean, and nothing is missing, and in particular the Limone room has a splendid private veranda. The bed and breakfast is located in a very quiet street, ideal for relaxing, but at the same time it is also very close to the center, shops, port, and the sandy beach Praia. When we return to Favignana, we would like to stay again at La Casa del Limoneto. Thank you for the pleasant stay!

The owners are very kind and welcoming. They made us feel at home! Every morning we could taste the jams and sweets prepared by the owner. It will be hard to forget the passito cake, the watermelon frost cheesecake, and the cassatelle. Thanks to the owner Giuseppe for the many things he told us about Favignana and for the beautiful boat trip with Roberto that he recommended.

giulia

The Casa del Limoneto is a perfect solution for those looking for a simple, yet not austere accommodation, just a short walk from the town center, yet in a quiet and peaceful location. The rooms are comfortable, nothing is missing. The managers are very kind and helpful, they picked us up at the port by car and gave us several tips on where to rent bikes and where to eat to also get some small discounts. If we are lucky enough to return to Favignana, we will definitely stay here again.

My family and I stayed for 4 days in May at this wonderful place. The property is completely surrounded by lemon, orange, mandarin, medlar trees, and other fruits, as well as flowers, particularly rose gardens. The environments are tastefully furnished, and the cleanliness is impeccable. The breakfast is abundant and of excellent quality, thanks to the hands of Mrs. Gaetana who delighted us every morning with cakes, cookies, and jams, all made with the fruit from her garden. Mr. Giuseppe was always available to give us advice and suggestions to make our stay perfect. Thanks to the Manuguerra Family Giuseppe, Gaetana, Alessia, and Francesco for the hospitality: it will pleasantly remain in our memories.

I stayed at La Casa del Limoneto in September 2016. The owners and their family were extremely welcoming. They picked us up at the port. We had homemade, varied and delicious breakfasts every day. They advised us on where to rent electric bicycles and we were very satisfied. The place is very clean. Beautiful garden. It is quiet and you can reach the city center in a few minutes. I highly recommend it.

Gaetana, the wife, prepares unforgettable breakfasts with her cakes, always different every day, and let's not talk about the homemade jams. How delicious!
