Hotel Costa Azul, hotel in Balestrate

Hotel Costa Azul is 150 metres from the nearest beach on the Castellammare Gulf, and 1.5 km from Balestrate centre. Air-conditioned rooms offer a veranda and a 32’’ LCD TV.

The hotel is located in a quiet area with two very good restaurants nearby. 5 minutes driving to the nearest town with lots of nice food places, markets and 5 minutes driving to beautiful Balestrate beach. Room was very clean. Breakfast was simple but always fresh - especially delicious fresh croissants served with very good coffee. Great swimming pool - very clean with shower outside and very comfortable sun loungers. Very friendly staff. 30 minutes driving to Palermo airport and 45 minutes driving to Palermo city. Not a lot of tourists around more local people which makes the whole experience very genuine. Highly recommend!

OrangeBalestrate, hotel in Balestrate

Situated in Balestrate, 28 km from Segesta and 21 km from Segestan Termal Baths, OrangeBalestrate offers barbecue facilities and air conditioning.

Just wanted to drop a quick review about our stay at Orange Balestrate – it was awesome! First off, Roberto, our host, is a gem. Super kind and went out of his way to make sure our stay was top-notch. He even took us around Balestrate, showing us the best spots and giving us the lowdown on all the cool shops and restaurants nearby. The room was spacious, cozy, and had everything we needed (Kitchen, Bathroom, Living room) There's even a washing machine, so no need to stress about dirty laundry piling up. There is also the sunny balcony which is perfect for drying clothes and just soaking up some rays. Balestrate itself may be small, but it's got heaps to offer. The locals are friendly as can be, and the whole vibe is just so chill. If you're after a laid-back holiday in Palermo, staying with Roberto at OrangeBalestrate is a no-brainer. Seriously, highly recommend it! We would definitely visit again 😍😍.

    Balestrate is a lively small Sicilian town 30 drive from Palermo airport (Pmo). It is a good starting point for exploring Palermo and west parts of Sicily. The beach seemed a bit abundant but we were there out of tourist season. Rental car is essential as there is so much to explore, from beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters to traditional Sicilian villages and hiking opportunities.

    Nice, rather calm town.

    Nice, rather calm town. Typical colorful houses, narrow streets, swuare with historic church. They have at least few restaurants with typical, fine cuisine (try disiu pizza - perfect pizza; siculish - artisanal sicilian cuisine; cia vuru ri tradizioni - suprising restaurant with great atmosphere, food and interior). Beach is broad and accessible for swimmimg, a bit not clean (some plastic bottles, etc.), but maybe during the peak season they clean it better (I hope). We had great time, proces are affordable (cafe/restaurant). You may easily reach the town from Punta Raisi by public transport or use private transfer (public transport for 4 person is ca. €30 / private transport €35 booked in Balestrate Jumbo car rental).

    Small quiet town.

    Small quiet town. Between Palermo and Trapani. 30 minutes car drive to Palermo airport. Good for making trips to Erice, Palermo, Segesta, Monreale. Trafić was not bad at all. Instead of going by car you can take a bus.

    Balestrate its nice small town.

    Balestrate its nice small town. There is plenty of shops, pubs,bars and restaurants. There are nice small bakeries which amazing Sicillan bread straight from the oven. You will have choice of lovely Sicilian food to try like sweet pastry, sandwiches, pasta and sea food. If you thinking of visiting other parts of Sicily you will need to rent a car as there isn't much of public transport, only a train but not very reliable. There are few beaches in Balestrate. There is also night life in Balestrate with live music and also disco on fresh air for younger population on Friday night. There are boats to hire in Port of Balestrate. People are very friendly and helpful with not many tourists from abroad.

    The town is just beautiful, we were there at a quiet time of year in March and whilst quiet during the day it comes alive at night! The restaurants are fantastic and the people are super friendly and accommodating! It has everything you need with you having to leave if you so wish! We travelled to all the towns in the vicinity and Balestrate is definitely the most beautiful!

    Pretty good central location (if you are ok with loud street in the evening :-), close to shops and restaurants, nice and friendly staff ready to help, access to washing machine on the top floor and terrace. but it would be much better if owner would care to ensure cleaning black mould in the bathroom and fixing not working air conditioning. If you will be lucky to get appartment in normal condition - clean enough and working air conditioning - it is pretty ok. walking distance to the beach - not Balestrate beach mention on Booking.com.

    Amazing host, he is available 24/7 with anything you might need help with. We even got some good restaurant tips and help with parking in Palermo for our onward journey. The hotel is in a perfect location close to beach and evening pedestrian zone with restaurants. The rooms are beautiful and well done, very clean. The bed is the most comfortable one we had in years of travelling. Also there is a shared kitchen which is really pretty where you can store your stuff in the fridge and every day cold water bottles are there for free.

    The house is amazing! Spacious, nicely decorated. Feels like Sicily. Front porch and back yard is super comfortable. Location is amazing too if you want piece and quiet like we do. You need a car to move around if you want to visit beautiful island. The best host ever. Always answering the phone and replying on messages. In a few minutes our problems were solved. Thank you

    Friendly, hospitable hostess; obliging and very helpful. The location was very convenient with good beaches 10 min drive away. Comfortable apt, all conveniences provided. The outside private patio was a bonus. A 'local' feel to Balestrate and a refreshing break from the busy Palermo swarming with tourists. Great local restaurants. Highly recommended.

    The staff were all lovely and made sure that we had and understood everything we needed. The location is right in the middle of Balestrate, so it was very easy to get around. The recommendations from all staff, including the local taxi (Milton) and all their food recommendations were perfect. The spa experience was truly lovely.
