Local House Sicily was born from Viviana's dream. After traveling across Europe, she decided, at the age of 25, to return to the land of her parents—a stunning and authentic corner of Sicily, where the connection with nature is deeply rooted in the culture and where one can breathe the true "Italian dream." Yet, this is also a place marked by the continuous departure of those who believe that "there is no future here." Viviana chose to see things differently: to enhance the territory and let others rediscover it through the eyes of those who experience it every day. Local House Sicily was created with the idea of welcoming travelers into authentic homes belonging to those who do not reside on the island year-round, offering the chance to experience local life in the most genuine way possible. Thanks to a dedicated and professional team, every home is carefully maintained to ensure comfort and quality while preserving its original character. Local House Sicily also offers the opportunity to immerse yourself in the authentic life of the island through various experiences organized with local residents. These include guided excursions in the majestic Nebrodi Park, traditional cooking classes, visits to local farms, private trips to the enchanting Aeolian Islands, and much more.
