Guestbook
Dear Andrea and Girolamo, We have just returned and had a very enjoyable time in Balestrate. Casa Veliz was very comfortable. We found Sicily a fascinating place, the people very friendly and helpful although their driving was quite an experience!! Balestrate was a very good base for us to explore the island. Thank you for you help with our holiday. Elizabeth and Malcolm Rippin
Liebe Familie Mazzola! Wir haben den Aufenthalt in Sizilien - nicht zuletzt wegen der traumhaften Lage ihres Hauses und der guten Organisation sehr genossen! Wir verbrachten sehr schöne Tage an die wir gerne zurückdenken! Vielen Dank Manfred Goak
Hallo Frau Mazzalo,
inzwischen sind wir aus unserem wunderschönen Urlaub in Balestrate leider schon wieder nach Hause zurückgekehrt. Es hat alles ganz toll geklappt und wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Wir möchten uns ganz herzlich bei Ihnen und Ihrem Mann bedanken und hoffen, bald noch einmal auf Sizilien Ferien machen zu können.
Viele Grüße Rosemarie und Ute Hesselbach
