Best Castellammare del Golfo holiday apartments

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Mediterranean Ocean, the beautiful coastal town of Castellammare del Golfo is located on the north coast of Sicily. This typically Italian community is replete with stunning local architecture, quaint seafood restaurants and lots of Latin charm. Roughly translated as ‘Sea-Fortress of the Gulf’, Castellammare del Golfo has been an important fishing community on the islands for centuries, but its pretty harbour is now home to vessels of a much more opulent nature. Relatively quiet during the winter months, the entire region comes to life when the temperature starts to rise in spring, and it can become rather difficult to find luxury accommodation in the heart of the local community. However, holiday apartments in Castellammare del Golfo can be found on the 9flats website, and they provide the perfect base from which to explore this stunning region of Italy.

Stunning Holiday Apartments in Castellammare del Golfo Put You Right in the Heart of the Local Community

The sea plays a major part in local life in this part of Sicily, and visitors can experience it first-hand by taking a boat trip with local tour guides. However, more adventurous sea-goers may want to rent their very own vessel! The hub of the tourist action in Castellammare del Golfo can be found in the town’s harbour area. This beautiful pedestrian zone is home to vibrant bars, restaurants and cafes – all offering stunning views of the harbour itself. You can enjoy some of the local, freshly-caught fish whilst sitting outside or sip on a Sicilian granita whilst watching the fishing vessels and pleasure boats come and go. Nearby holiday apartments in Scopello will give you the chance to live in luxury whilst soaking up the local cultures and customs.

Holiday Accommodation in Castellammare del Golfo Delivers All the Creature Comforts of Home

The Corso area of Castellammare del Golfo is a great place to visit if you like to shop ‘til you drop. Filled with local stores selling local produce, you will get the chance to hone your bargaining skills with local shopkeepers. The town also features two stunning beaches with golden-sand beaches. Rent a bed and an umbrella for a little shade during the intense summer heat, or take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean. If history is more your thing, a short trip to the Medieval town of Erice will transport you back to this region’s tumultuous past. No visit to this gorgeous part of Sicily should pass, however, without paying the renowned Lo Zingaro nature reserve a visit. With so much to do and see, nearby holiday accommodation in Alcamo Marina will provide the perfect home in which to recharge the batteries every evening.

If you have been couchsurfing in Alcamo Marina recently, you will be pleased to know that the service delivered by 9flats is similar. However, it goes the extra mile by giving you the chance to rent entire homes – in the heart of local communities around the world. Whether you are looking for holiday flats in Rome or vacation homes in Melbourne, nowhere else offers such a vast range of privately-owned holiday accommodation.
