La Foresteria Planeta Wine Resort & Beach Club

Lovely food and wines, an excellent beach club as part of the package, excellent rooms and all at a very fair price for what you get. Close to Selinunte and just over an hour from both Agrigento and Palermo airport - both an easy drive. A very special place.

I just spent 3 days with my husbands entire family at La Foresteria. It’s a small intimate country hotel located an hour south of Palermo in a vineyard overlooking the sea. The stay was planned with meticulous attention to detail by the lovely Deborah Hoppeler who went over and above to orchestrate an amazing stay from making sure all ages and tastes were catered for to finding the perfect birthday cake. Everything from the food, amazing service and spectacular wine was loved and appreciated by all. It was the perfect place to plan this family get together! I have now been here 3 times and plan to come back. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Visited in August 2023 having visited 10 years prior- it is a fantastic spot with great views and lots of things to do in the local area. The pool is fantastic and having the beach club is a nice added bonus- we spent 2 days down there and enjoyed the food and ambience. In terms of the hotel - most of the staff were great and really helpful but a few front of house staff members were surly and honestly a bit aggressive with the sales pitch for having dinner or doing cooking classes etc. They ask you ‘what time you will join for dinner’ rather than ‘if’. We enjoyed our meal there but we didn’t feel we wanted to stay in the hotel 24/7 and enjoyed going to other local places- but when you say you’re not saying for dinner they are totally disinterested and a bit rude. It soured the stay a little bit but honestly it’s a great hotel with great location and the wine is fantastic. If you can deal with the hard sell then it’s worth it.

Lovely position into the vineyards of Planeta. Very professional staff, attentive to the detail! Food experience at restaurant was excellent! Not to mention the breakfast (all local products and above all fresh orange juice! A variety of delicious dishes, well thought! My suite had a good view on the country. I found well projected and organized also the service at the Insula beach!

Stunning setting, very convenient location to explore the area and excellent service. We loved the decor, breakfast was a treat, aperitivo by the pool made special by some interesting wine recommendations and the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. If you are planning to visit the area, this is a great place to stay at. We highly recommend it and hope to be back soon!

This is a lovely hotel in a beautiful setting run by an exceptional team. The location is perfect for exploring and for simply relaxing - this is a particularly beautiful corner of Sicily. The team are wonderful - from the moment of first welcome we were warmly taken care of - they are full of advice and the front of house really care about the hotel and you. The restaurant is lovely and a special thanks to Giuseppe who made our trip truly memorable. I hope we can return.
