Villa Trigona has the sense of a 19th century country lodge. We drove in, noting several paths into the woods. Outside the entrance are tables and chairs pleasantly arranged for use during breakfast and throughout the day. The hallways are decorated with pictures from ladies' fashion magazines, as well as for outdoor activities of the old days. The gentleman at reception showed us our room, which was on the ground floor (no stairs, yay!) and had a private terrace with a black wrought iron table and chairs. Breakfast was an extravagance of meats, cheeses, fruit, and, especially, pastries. As we spent long days at Villa Romana del Cazale and Morgantina, we appreciated, on our returns, having proseccos outside in the chilly sunshine. We ate dinner on site all three nights. The food was not quite equal to restaurant standards, but the convenience made up for it. All in all, our stay was quite economical. Also, we tried to drive into Pizza Armerina one night for dinner and there was such a mess (a rally?) that we returned to Villa Trigona. Everyone was helpful, but I want to particularly thank the young man who worked mostly in the kitchen and bar. He spoke excellent English and answered all our questions about the area.

“Charming Agroturismo property. ”

Villa Trigona is an Agroturismo property near Piazza Armerina. Its not a luxury property but is very charming. Vast swimming pool. Room was very basic but clean.

Villa Trigona is an Agroturismo property near Piazza Armerina. Its not a luxury property but is very charming. Vast swimming pool. Room was very basic but clean. The main building looks nice, with a court in front with seats, and a terrace. The interior has some old style. All around you can walk in the countryside with trees, plants. And the reception team was really friendly.

We stayed in the Villa Tragona when visiting Villa Romana, the World Heritage site. Having been in the same family for hundreds of years, this hotel is located in the beautiful Italian countryside. We booked for a suite which, unknown to us when we booked, was located in the old house. You climb ancient curved stairs, through a sitting room, through a library to our room on the second floor. We were unclear what the suite was as we used neither of the outer rooms because only our room had the air conditioning on. The bed was fine though in a very tight alcove and the bathroom redone - but my husband woke up to ants all over his pills in the am. Our friends stayed in a brand new room - that would have been our preference when we discovered the choice. The ground are lovely to walk. The 6 course dinner, including wine and bottled water was one of the best meals we had on the trip. Definitely stay here if you are going to Villa Romana, enjoy walking through the old house, but stay in a room in the new addition

“Average stay”

The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Good breakfast, especially the homemade jams and marmalade. A nice setting. Unfortunately, some areas for improvement. Swimming pool was not open.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Good breakfast, especially the homemade jams and marmalade. A nice setting. Unfortunately, some areas for improvement. Swimming pool was not open. There were no other recreational facilities: the football field was overgrown; with flat balls and torn nets. The archery areas seemed not to have been used for some years. One of our rooms had a damp odor. There is effectively an 11 pm curfew because the reception closes at 11 pm and no one is there to open the gate. This is quite inconvenient when returning late from dinner otherwise Agrigento. We had sought and received confirmation in advance about laundry services. When we checked in, we were told there were no laundry services. Later another receptionist clarified that there was no laundry on that day. We had had it done the next day, but some items came back completely wrinkled so we could not wear them. For 10 euros per person, the laundry service could have been better.
