It provided a practical stop enroute during our road trip of Sicily. We received a great welcome, staff were very friendly and there was secure parking. Furnishings were basic but everything was there and there was a huge terrace. The location provided easy access to Agrigento and beaches, the town itself was somewhat underwhelming but had a selection of shops and restaurants.

It is a good spot for Business travellers. If you travel for lesure time there is Not really anything to Do there. I went to Agrigento there is a lot to See. If you just need a place to stay for the nicht it is perfect

Montalbano fans will like to visit Porto Empedocle as there is a mural of Andrea Camileri and a bronze statue of 'Montalbano sono' in front of the pizzeria on the Main Street.
When in Porto Empedocle, a visit to the nearby 'Scala dei Turchi' is a must.

Nice restaurants, good food, nice prices and nearby beach, I would avoid staying at the apartment we booked called Gocce Siciliane Apartments. Embellished photos, dirty balcony, no parking for the apartment and fridge slightly bigger than a matchbox. Glad to see, in their reply, they agree the price is ridiculous.

Its really nice and quiet while only a stone's throw away from the major attractions.
It has some very good places to eat out and it is very easy to get around by foot.
It does have rather un-reliable public transport connections though as well as having some areas with an aweful lot of garbage and untaken care of public areas. However this is a general problem in many parts of Sicily.

The old part of the town has the most character.
The old part of the town has the most character. Via Roma is possibly the nicest street but there is also a charming piazza just a few steps further towards the harbour. It’s easy to find the town as it is the starting point for ferries to the islands. Parking is easy in the winter but maybe not so easy during holidays. It’s very much a working town with lots of industries around as well as some really picturesque spots. There are lots of restaurants with sea food as their speciality but you can get a range of menus and at least one catering for gluten free. Porto Empedocles makes a good base for touring all the main sites on the south coast. You do need a car as the buses are infrequent and there is no longer a passenger train service. The streets are very narrow so a small car with good ground clearance is recommended as the roads in and around the town are not well maintained.

The location is very good, there was no problem entering the property, restaurants are enough in the neighbourhood. We liked KENYA very much - delicious food, friendly staff... It's a pity that the elevator didn't work in the house, as well as the drenage in the shower. The sofa in the living-room was kinda strange...

Breakfast was good , nothing spectacular.they have no beach club being across the street from beach .pool is good ,no heating so a bit cold when you get in . Parking is included and you need a good goa to get to the back of hotel . Had a great dinner meal just 100 m from the hotel to your left .best meal mussels, calamari, pasta seafood bowl. Was a very good meal . Valley of the temples was a 10 min drive and 3 min drive to Scala turci. Had Oceanview room with big balcony .this was a great place to unwind.
In the middle of lively beachside town, next to town square. Very large and clean.We booked at 7pm because when we got to Agrigento we didn’t like it. Port Empedocle, a few k’s away on beach is much
Better place to stay. Host Livio waited for our late 9pm check-in ....even bought me a beer at the next door bar!
If planning to visit Agrigento, skip it and stay at Porto Empedocle, and if possible at Livio’s La Rosa
This sounds like a paid endorsement...believe me it’s not. We just had a bloody good time
I spent two two nights with my partner at this fantastic bed and breakfast. The room was amazing: very spacious and comfortable, well furnished and very very clean. Also , the building is located in a very strategic position: close to Agrigento, Bovo marina beach, Scala dei turchi and other fabolous locations near Porto Empedocle. Furthermore, the owner , Calogero , was really helpful and friendly. I definitely recommend this amazing place ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
Great place to stay right across from the beach. The bed is firm and the pillows are flat but that’s really everywhere in Sicily. The restaurant is fantastic though. We came in the low season when there’s not much going on and loved it. There’s walkable spots for breakfast/lunch. The beach is really nice and great for walking. The Turkish stairs are about a 25 minute walk by the beach, do this rather than driving.
I loved Porto Empedocle, which is the town where the Sicilian writer Andrea Camilleri was born... so it's filled with this atmosphere... real town and nice people, to me. Maria is a charming lady who lives in the building, and responds to questions and needs if possible. The bed was a little sofa/bed in the living-room, for one person. The apartment is centrally located and has an old school vibe.
Bearing in mind we stayed at the "end of the season" it was pleasing to find the hotel so clean, with the cleaning staff always evident. The Bar and Restaurant Staff were very polite and attentive. The location on the beach was a real plus and our balcony, whilst close to the road at the rear of the property the noise of the sea completely drowned it out and our view out to sea was very good.
It provided a practical stop enroute during our road trip of Sicily. We received a great welcome, staff were very friendly and there was secure parking. Furnishings were basic but everything was there and there was a huge terrace. The location provided easy access to Agrigento and beaches, the town itself was somewhat underwhelming but had a selection of shops and restaurants.
Salvina was a wonderful host. She greeted us with an aperitivo. She gave a booklet with recommendations for restaurants, beaches, and sights to see. The hotel was located just a few minutes drive to the Scala dei Turchi and about a 25 minute drive to the Valley of the Temples. The rooms are modern and very clean, and the shared terrace has a beautiful view of the sea.
I liked everything. the room was clean. very friendly administrator. I liked that the hotel works very flexibly and you can check in quite late. Also, the employee always responded quickly to messages (even at 3 in the morning) and helped. highly recommend. I felt very comfortable there and I understand that they really care about me.
Smelt lovely and fresh when we walked into the room. Felt like a 5* hotel. Room was well presented. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, the thickest hot chocolate. Served, fresh fruit and fruit juice, coffee, meats, bread, cakes. Restaurant next door was packed the whole time we were there so recommend booking in advance.
Breakfast buffet was beautifully presented and delicious. We enjoyed the gourmet dinner at the inn both nights of our stay, some of the best food we tasted in Sicily. Relaxed at the pool after a day touring the ancient historical sites at Agrigento. Highly recommend this inn for a quiet interlude while touring Sicily.
The hotel is PERFECT! it is very clean, better than the photos, great location, big rooms, great bed and very kind owner. Nino, the owner, was very friendly, helpful and kind. He is always smiling and very helpful. The location is perfect - across from the beautiful beach, and has reserved parking. It was a wonderful stay!
Gerlando was very hospitable and gave us very valuable information to visit the surrounding area and the landmarks such as "La valle degli templi" and "Scala dei turchi".We also appreciated the happy holiday text after we left the hotel.
The owners were welcoming and very kind. Everything in the apartment worked fine. It was spacious and comfortable. Location is ok for Porto Empedocle. The neighborhood is quiet and not so busy as the rest of town.
exceptional hospitality . Beautiful place . lovely , friendly owners . Great food and ambience.
It was the best agriturismo that we stayed in during our 2 week driving tour of Sicily.
The «hotel» is situated in a very conveniant place right in the middle of it. Rooms with balconies overlook the see (But also a tall building in fro t of it). Rooms were clean.
In addition to being the best value in all of southeast Sicily (if not the entire island) with its spaciousness and comfort, the hosts are the kindest people in the world.
Excellent location. The room and kitchen area are better than a 4Star hotel. Parking is right outside and the first class restaurant is 100 metres away.
