Often regarded as the beating heart of a city, town squares are usually thronging with life and unique characters. Find out what's going on at Quattro Canti and look for clues to its long history.

Quattro Canti is a great place to start out your day in Palermo Historical Center. This public square is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (158 reviews)

Located 20mins from Palermo airport in a quiet neighbourhood is this lovely resort with an outdoor pool and a single tennis court. Choice of villas or rooms. Rooms were really comfortable and spacious with lovely amenities. Nice waterfall shower. The breakfast was nice - choice of cereals, extensive bakery range, fresh fruit and hot drinks. Dinner at the restaurant is a real gourmet experience with an excellent selection of wines with wonderful waiting staff. There is no direct beach access from the resort but it is a 10min walk. The hotel offer a 25 euro airport transfer which is cheaper than private taxis. I had to ask for a kettle and tea as not every room has them - they were really accommodating and brought it within minutes.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (243 reviews)

The villa is located a short drive from the town and also from the valley of the temples. The free onsite parking and quiet countryside around the villa made for a relaxing visit after a busy day of sightseeing. Our room was huge with a large balcony and view of the valley. King bed was very comfortable, there was also 2 single beds in the room so it would be perfect for a family. The peacock, donkeys and goats on the property were fun to watch. Our host and property owner Dario was amazing. He made us feel very welcome and made sure we had everything we needed. Breakfast was exceptional with homemade cakes and bread and a variety of choices. Loved our stay and highly recommend villa Diana.

9/10 Wonderful! (2 reviews)

The property was a good size and had a washing machine and spa. It was well presented. It was a little out of Cefalu and I would have preferred something a little closer or alternatively I stayed in the actual resort at another time and enjoyed the location more. A major advantage of the apartment is that it comes with access to resort areas and the beach is wonderful.
