Beautiful, clean and spacious property with all the modern amenities, and the world’s best hosts, who epitomise the concept of Sicilian hospitality. And the view from that balcony - wow! Made it hard to want to leave the property. Super convenient, central location in the heart of the town. Highly recommended.
The host and his family went out of there way to accommodate all of our needs. Wish we could have stayed several nights. Magnificent apartment overlooking the ocean.
We had an amazing stay at the Bica’s apartment. Superb hosts. They are very kind and welcoming. They know about all of Trapani’s secrets and history. Very clean and comfortable apartment with great view. We recommend 100%! Thank you for a fabulous stay!
Vincenzo and his family are by far the kindest and most generous hosts whose home we’ve stayed in. He offered us everything we could need to get settled, as well as oil, pasta, and wine that his family produces. The apartment is beautifully restored and centrally located. Mille grazie to the whole Bica family! We’ll be back.
Trapani was one of our favorite spots in Sicily specifically because of this gorgeous apartment, the location and also our host Vincenzo. He was so helpful and thoughtful with providing many special 'gifts' and extras in the kitchen. The photos do not even do this place justice as it was very large and an absolutely beautiful completely refurbished old palace. A very special place indeed.
From my first correspondence with Vincenzo to the last, we just knew we were in EXCELLENT hands and would be well taken care of. Talk about an above and beyond host! Vincenzo and his family thought of everything and MORE. The level of thoughtfulness is something I have never experienced before. Talk about warm, kind, caring and hospitable people. The home is flawless and the views brought tears to our eyes.
Vincenzo, thank you x1000 for everything that you did to care for us on our stay - we will never forget you, your family and how at home you made us feel. Cheers from Montreal!
Wir buchten diese Unterkunft als Paar wegen der spektakulären Meersicht. Wir wurden von Vincenzo am Parkplatz Vit. Em. (im Okt. 0.20Euro/Std.) abgeholt und zur Wohnung gefahren.
Wir waren schlicht überwältigt. Im 2. Stock eines spanischen Palazzos gelegen fühlt man sich sofort wohl. Die Küche und die 2 Bäder wurden mit hochwertigen Materialien liebevoll renoviert.
In der Küche stand eine Schale mit frischem Obst, feines Olivenöl, eine spezielle Kräutermischung und Busiate Trapanese (Pasta).
Im Kühlschrank stand Mineralwasser, Wein, Fruchtsäfte, Milch und Butter bereit. Einfach unglaublich.
Vizenzo erzählte uns viel von Trapani und der Geschichte dieser Stadt. Er besitzt ein unglaubliches Wissen über Historie und Kultur.
Tipps bezgl. Nachtessen, Clubs etc inkl.
Wenn wir wieder in Trapani sind, werden wir def. diese Unterkunft wieder buchen.
Herzlichen Dank für den wunderbaren Aufenthalt.

Accueil plus que sympathique, hôtes très chaleureux et accueillants.
Appartement irréprochable, très confortable, équipé d’une manière très fonctionnelle. Sa situation centrale est vraiment agréable. Le balcon face à la mer
ajoute une touche bien sympathique dans un appartement en ville.
Brilliant apartment, fabulous location, great host
The property is incredible with a large kitchen, large lounge, 1 massive bedroom and 2 good sized bedroom. Located right in the centre of Trapani old town close to excellent bars and restaurants. Vincenzo could not have been more hospitable as a host -Parking is some 300m away but he met us there on arrival with his car and took us and our luggage to the apartment giving us a short guided tour of the town on the way. He had stocked the apartment with all essentials (tea/coffee/milk/beer wine - he also stocked us up later in the week). Has to be the best value apartment I’ve ever stopped in! Trapani itself is a great place to stay with some really good restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner throughout the old town. Cannot rate this location highly enough! Thank you Vincenzo for all your efforts!
Vincenzo and his family were so welcoming to their property. He met me promptly at the property with very accurate directions to safe parking. He is so kind and left some local specialties for us to taste. He informed us all about Trapani and gave wonderful recommendations for tourism. The apartment was large, very comfortable, and best of all sparkling clean. The location is amazing- just blocks from centro storico and directly on the lungomare. I recommend this property to anyone who enjoys the city, but also wants a quiet caffè or vino on the terrace overlooking the sea. 10/10 for comfort and service! Grazie mille Vincenzo e famiglia!
Accoglienza perfetta, casa molto bella e pulitissima in uno storico palazzo del centro. Vincenzo e la Sig.ra Iole, i proprietari, ci hanno aiutato In tutti i modi possibili. Hanno contribuito enormemento alla riuscita del nostro soggiorno.
Abbiamo trascorso due bellissime giornate a Trapani, la casa affaccia sul mare e contemporaneamente è anche centrale.
La consigliamo vivamente.
Torneremo
Ich kann nur wiederholen, was die anderen schon geschrieben haben, aber diesmal auf Deutsch ;). Wir haben Ende Juni 2020 eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem Apartment verbracht. Die Familie Bica hat uns mehr als freundlich am nahegelgenen Parkplatz empfangen. Der Parkplatz kostet 10 ct die Std. (zwischen 8 Uhr bis 24 Uhr zahlbar). Das ist sehr günstig. Es handelt sich um einen großen öffentlichen Parkplatz 10 Gehminuten vom Apartment entfernt. Die Familie hat unser Gepäck per Auto zum Apartment gefahren. Das Apartment ist genauso wie auf den Fotos. Der Balkon mit Meerblick ist das Highlight. Das Ap. war pico bello sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man so braucht. Die Lage ist top! Mitten in der Altstadt. Wir waren nur zu zweit dort, aber es gibt Betten bis zu 6 Personen. Wir können diese Unterkunft ohne Einschränkung empfehlen und danken den Vermietern von Herzen für die schöne Zeit dort!
Warmest welcome, beautiful apartment, BEST location
From the very minute I booked the beautiful apartment for my parents and my stay in Trapani, Vincenzo and the Bica's Family were so warm, helpful and inviting.
Our flight arrived a bit later in the evening and we did not arrive at the apartment until after 10pm. Even then, we were greeted and given an amazing tour of Trapani in the car, were shown around the apartment and given tips and advice for destinations during our stay.
The apartment could not be in a better location - right in the city center, overlooking the sea and right above shopping and amazing restaurants! The apartment is very roomy and extremely clean.
I would recommend this apartment to anyone and everyone that decides to visit Trapani, not only because of the most lovely apartment, but because Vincenzo and the Bica's Family were so accomodating and amazing people.
We LOVED everything about our stay. From the beginning even prior to booking Vincenzo was great about communicating. Always available and quick to respond. Upon arriving we met his parents Giuseppe and Iole they welcomed us so warmly it was like being with family. Giuseppe brought our luggage up for us and Iole went over things to do and see and restaurants. We were captivated by the view from the patio overlooking the sea and enjoyed our coffee in the morning on the patio. When we arrived they met us and brought us to the apartment. It was a Sunday afternoon and the street was so quiet. When we went out later that evening the streets were alive with music and restaurants and little shops. We enjoyed walking around Trapani, shopping and eating in the restaurants. Our favorite was Vento dal sud Pizzeria Trattoria. The BEST pizza I have ever had. Thank you for being such gracious hosts and for making us feel at home. Your hospitality was wonderful! We hope to see you again soon and to stay longer.
From our first contact with Vincenzo, everything was perfect. The apartment is in an old palazzo which has been tastefully modernised and provides everything you need for a perfect holiday. It is located on the main pedestrianised street in the old town. Whilst this does mean you can’t park right outside, there is very cheap parking a couple of minutes away and Vincenzo comes to meet you and take you back at the end of your stay so you don’t have to carry your luggage.
Inside, the apartment is spacious and spotlessly clean with all the facilities you need. We loved breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sea and an evening aperitif there too!
Our hosts provided the most thoughtful and generous welcome pack.
Trapani is a great base from which to enjoy and explore western Sicily and the town itself is very beautiful especially at night when many of its beautiful buildings are floodlit.
The loveliest part of our stay was the warm welcome and care provided by Vincenzo and his family. He is justifiably proud of his town and surroundings and very knowledgeable. His recommendations for restaurants were all spot on and although we didn’t need to call on his assistance nothing was too much trouble.
Go and enjoy, you won’t be disappointed!
This apartment exceeded all of our expectations. We North Americans are often disappointed in room sizes when travelling in Europe so we were thrilled to find the apartment extremely spacious included a proper dining/living room with large table. The bedrooms were spacious and the bathrooms were very clean, modern and equipped with hair dryers, soap, shampoo and shower gel. The hosts were very helpful in helping us find very cheap parking and brought our luggage right to the apartment. The street has shops and restaurants right at the door step but the apartment itself is located at the back of the property so it's very quiet. The kitchen is fully equipped and the hosts left us coffee, fresh fruit, juice, milk and plenty of drinking water. This was a first for us... we have rented properties many times but never have we had a more welcoming experience! The kitchen also has a little terrace with space to sit and enjoy your morning coffee while watching the ocean waves roll in. You really could not ask for a more perfect location! Thank you to Vincenzo, Giuseppe and Marinella for making our stay in Trapani so enjoyable... you helped make our visit a wonderful experience!
Beautiful apartment, Great location! Bellissimo appartamento, ottima posizione!
This apartment is even better than photos can show. We spent five days here in May, 2019, and would have been happy to stay longer. It was very clean, beautifully appointed, and nicely equipped with bath and kitchen necessities. The owners are a lovely, attentive family who take great pride in their property. They'll treat you like family! You'll walk out the front door to Garbaldi street and be just a few steps from restaurants and shops. More great restaurants are on the street under your balcony on the sea side of your apartment. Imagine yourself sitting on the balcony enjoying some delicious Italian wine, cheese, and fresh bread while watching the sunset over the surf of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Ah! What a life! Don't pass up this apartment!

Best Property Ever!
I have used Home Away/VRBO to book many properties in the USA and Europe. This apartment in Trapani we booked for 5 nights exceeded any expectation one could possibly have. We were greeted by the hosts a very short distance from the apartment as it is located in a pedestrian area. They helped us with our luggage and opened the door to an incredible view of the sea and Trapani. In the kitchen we found fruit from their garden and a bottle of sparkling wine to welcome us. The kitchen has every amenity you could need for cooking and a coffee bar that was fantastic. There is a wonderful balcony off the kitchen to enjoy your coffee while overlooking the ocean. Off the kitchen there is a main living area with a large table for multiple guests to dine and a TV. Further back there is a room with twin beds, a double room and a large master bedroom with a nice bathroom. Storage in each room is excellent. Closer to the kitchen there is a extra large bathroom that my wife took due to all the space. The apartment is huge and has recently been remodeled with everything you could possibly need. My wife lost a button and even found a sewing kit in her bathroom. Wifi is excellent and cleaning can be done as you prefer. After we viewed the apartment, we were taken in their car for a quick orientation of the city and a really good gelato shop. What a thoughtful touch! The location is in the heart of old town with many shops and restaurants right out the door. There is no way I could give a higher recommendation to our hosts and the property. Their genuine warmth to us as guests is unsurpassed in our travels. They even met us upon departure just to say goodbye We are definitely coming back for another visit. As an aside, we were able to fly direct to Trapani from Gatwick on British Air. The area, which we knew nothing about, was incredible. From the wine tasting in Marsala, to salt flats, the cable car to Erice, great beaches and numerous excellent restaurants, there certainly isn't a shortage of things to do and see.

L'appartamento ideale per visitare la Provincia di Trapani
Sono dieci anni che andiamo in Sicilia alla scoperta delle sue provincie. Quest'anno abbiamo scelto la Provincia di Trapani, e finalmente abbiamo trovato la casa ideale.
Vincenzo e Giuseppe, i proprietari, ci hanno accolto con una professionalità ed un'attenzione che difficilmente troverete altrove. Rapportato al costo del soggiorno l'appartamento è di livello superiore. La posizione è perfetta: l'accesso è su Corso Garibaldi in pieno centro storico ma l'appartamento è collocato al lato opposto del palazzo con il vantaggio che dalle stanze da letto e dal soggiorno non si sente nessun rumore. La cucina invece si apre attraverso un balcone che affaccia sul mare, con la "falce" di Trapani che entra nelle acque del porto a fare da sfondo. In casa c'è veramente tutto per facilitare il soggiorno degli ospiti. Se siete in auto c'è un parcheggio libero a circa 500 metri in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele. L'imbarco per le isole Egadi è a circa 500 metri; Erice si intravede dal balcone. E poi ci sono Mozia e le saline di Trapani, Segesta e Selinunte, la Riserva dello Zingazo e la tonnara di Scopello, Marsala e Mazara del Vallo. Una terra unica la Sicilia.
