We did not stay at the Vecchio Frantoio; since it had a landslide. However the owner had another facility in the mountains, in the same region, that had a great view of the countryside and sea. EVERYTHING WORKED OUT WELL.

Beautifully situated in the mountains.
This hotel changed our impression of Sicily to include the beauty of the interior. We went for a hike after arriving, getting up to a lovely viewpoint above the hotel (the rocks), cooled off in the spectacular pool after, and had a delicious dinner, including vegetarian food.

Beautiful rustic hotel with lovely views
Loved this hotel and was sorry to leave. The staff are friendly and welcoming even though limited English and so genuinely wanting to please. The views are stunning and the pool area lovely. Would recommend and wished I could have stayed longer. You can buy homemade wine and olive oil too. We had dinner in the evening which was a set menu of traditional food. It was lovely and very good value

Unforgettable dinner, stunning views
When we arrived, it was fun to witness the Sunday christening party with over 150 local guests at the restaurant. After the party was over, it was just two of us for the evening and the gentlemen set a table near the fireplace and served a perfect dinner for our 10th wedding anniversary. The wine, cheeses, olive oil, meats, vegetables were excellent so fresh and above all, ALL home-made. The 5 course dinner, including hot and cold appetizers, pastas, meat secondi and desert, was fantastic and easily plenty for 4 people. The hot breakfast (bacon and eggs cook to order), cakes and espresso were also wonderful. The room and bathroom were basic and rustic. The farm and the house are set in a beautiful olive grove and the Madonie mountain views were stunning. We enjoyed the views and the walk on the self-sufficient farm-farming pigs, chicken, sheep, olive trees and vegetables. What a lovely experience on the countryside!

Nice charming countryside stay
The place has a really rustic feel, complete with a fireplace in the dining area where we had dinner. The caponata and antipasta were great and portions were huge.

a piece of sicillian tradition and tranquillity
Our stay was really good, we arrived a day late and at a silly hour but the gentleman that was there to greet us was just happy that we had finally turned up. he was nothing but helpful. The evening meal hours were over but he still agreed to fix us some cold meats and cheeses as we hadn't eaten all day. The room was clean and comfortable and very spacious. The hotel is well equipped for families with children to stay. The views of the sicillian hills and country were amazing as was the food. being set in an olive grove, their olives and olive oil are all home made. some of the best we have ever tasted. Their home made wine is also very good. The meals that they serve are very traditional and consist of 5 courses, each course alone was enough to satisfy hunger but the food kept coming. Their was a wide variety of Italian style breakfast buffet each morning too. with freshly brewed coffee. overall our stay was highly enjoyable with the only downfall being that its quite difficult to find. GPS devices are quite useless in Italy, especially if you are bringing your own across continents.

Superb food
You don't have a big choice at the restaurant but just go with the flow and you won't regret it. There is one long narrow road to arrive at the hotel. Just pray you won't meet a car coming in the opposite direction. The place being very old might lack some luxury but the poolside is then the best I've ever seen. Everything seems to be run by Tommy who offers an excellent personalized service.

My husband and I had a very relaxing stay at Il Vecchio Frantoio. The staff were friendly and the rooms very spacious. Lots of character in a beautiful mountain setting. And the food!!! Excellent Italian food that seemed endless! We enjoyed the variety and the cozy fireplace in the dining room. We will definitely return!

Afslapning i smukke omgivelser
Stedet er et smukt restaureret kloster, som ejerens familie har haft i mange generationer. Vi boede der i tre dage på vores rundtur på Sicilien. En skøn pause fra larmende byer. Maden var virkelig god og til en fair pris. Flot pool omgivet af oliventræer. Skal helt sikkert bo her, hvis vi kommer til Sicilien igen.

Posto affascinante e romantico, sembra di fare un salto indietro nel tempo. Il complesso è molto curato e pulito e possiede tutti i comfort. Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile. Qualità del cibo eccezionale. Abbiamo dovuto aggiungere 15 € per una incomprensione tra il proprietario ed Expedia ma siamo stati lieti di farlo perché il trattamento è stato davvero super!
