Villa Zuccarello in Palermo, open April–August.
Villa Zuccarello is an 18th-century Sicilian estate originally constructed as a private aristocratic residence in Palermo's prestigious Villagrazia district.
The property underwent extensive restoration in the early 2000s to preserve its period architecture while modernizing guest facilities, maintaining 12 original rooms with frescoed ceilings and marble floors.
Today it operates as an exclusive destination wedding venue, hosting ceremonies and receptions across its manicured gardens and historic interiors.
The Villa is run by very friendly customer oriented people. The location is incredible as it's in the middle of the city but absolutely unaffected by the noise of the streets. This is largely due to the fact that it's surrounded by a big garden. The kitchen is great because it's run by a two star Michelin chef. The Villa is large and offers inside and outside areas. The Villa is in a very good shape.
