Located in the pretty coastal town of Marsala, this stylish villa is ideally situated for exploring all of the sandy beaches, ancient ruins and wineries of Sicily's west coast. Boasting a gorgeous garden, you couldn't ask for a better spot to soak up the Sicilian sunshine. Start your days with a refreshing swim in the private pool, then make yourself a coffee and enjoy the shade of the patio for a while. If you fancy a chill day at home, you have plenty of sun loungers, umbrellas and comfy sofas to relax on. 

We highly recommend you take some time to explore the local area, too. The centre of Marsala is full of great wine bars and restaurants, making it perfect for a bite to eat and a relaxing afternoon sampling some of the local produce. There are also some beautiful beaches here, meaning you have the best of both worlds on your doorstep. 

When you get home, it's time to get creative on the barbecue and try recreating some of your favourite Italian dishes. Dine alfresco beneath the pergola then unwind with a few games of table tennis in the garden.

This sleek home offers a slice of serenity in western Sicily. How about watching a sunset over Mothia and the Egladi Islands while sipping local wine? We love the tropical garden, sun-kissed terraces, and seasonal pool here. Hydromassage tubs and showers await indoors, though some en-suite layouts are partially open-plan with less privacy. Curious kittens might pop by when you're sunbathing, which could be a dealbreaker for those with severe allergies. There's a beach nearby, plus Marsala boasts ancient sights and a buzzing nature reserve.

Perfectly positioned on Sicily's western coast, this home makes the most of its lovely location. Not only is there a beach just 300 metres away, but popular spots like Marsala's salt pans, Trapani, Erice and Mazara del Vallo are easily reached by car. While this single-level home lacks some character, we think it'll suit families wanting a fuss-free getaway – especially as there are two sofa beds in the living room ideal for children. We're big fans of the private pool (who wouldn't be?) and the small terrace has nice views, even if you're a bit close to the neighbours.

For adventures further afield, the atmospheric streets of Marsala provide a wonderful opportunity for exploring ancient ruins and sampling the famous local wine.

Memorable times are guaranteed at this white Cubist villa surrounded by palm trees. Located above Marakaibbo beach, this home is in a prime location to spend sun-soaked days above the sea with your loved ones. 

The Cubist concept is evident in this villa’s interior and exterior – geometric forms take shape in the bookcases and abstract open-plan living spaces, whilst the architecture itself is characterised by sharp, linear lines that enable perspective viewing across the pristine pool, the manicured gardens and beyond the palm tree border.

Contemporary in style and soaked in white - this home invites you to unwind in its light-filled rooms. Take your pick of nesting spot – there are two living areas and kitchens here, so you can enjoy quiet moments as well as sociable settings.

After a barbecue lunch on the patio, fix up a round of Aperol spritzes and take in the blue views.

Marakaikko beach, with white shores and shallow waters, is only a fourteen-minute walk when you’re craving an afternoon on the sand.

Nestled amongst ancient olive trees and wonderful palms, this home will leave you feeling like you've stumbled across a tranquil sanctuary hidden away from the world outside. Whether you're wandering around the garden or taking a dip in the pool, you'll always feel connected to the beauty of nature. The outside terrace of this first floor apartment provides you with the best vantage point of the garden, but also of Sicily in general. Look forward to enjoying fresh cornetti and Sicilian blood orange juice for breakfast while gazing into the distance at the Meditteranean Sea. Whether you're staying here with family or friends, everyone will love the outdoors area.

Sicily as an island has so much to offer – especially this area at the most westerly tip. Wine lovers will be glad to know Marsala is an eighteen-minute drive away – a town internationally known for its wine production. After wandering its historic streets, pick up a bottle of marsala wine to enjoy on the terrace later. This area of Sicily is also well known for its small but picturesque beaches. Lido Marakaibbo Beach is one of the most famous in this part of the island, and it's only a six-minute drive. 

Nestled Amongst The Trees

Rain Shower

Access to Beach

With at least five wineries just a short drive away – the furthest being just shy of forty minutes – this home is well connected to the wine route and the accomplished cellars along it. With their doors open to the public, you can make a day of hopping from one to another as you sample the wares and choose your favourite to take home. That bottle of Marsala wine, coincidentally, will make the perfect accompaniment to the Mediterranean feast you’ll undoubtedly grill sometime during your stay. 

When you’re not among vineyards, you might escape to another natural wonder – the beach. Drive along the coast to find your favourite among a number of rocky and sandy beaches and once there, you can fully indulge yourself for the day. Swim until the tides and sunshine has left you feeling that particular brand of happy-tired, or catch up on your reading as you lie back under an umbrella and listen to the waves lapping upon the shore. 

Back home you’ll find all the comforts you expect from a holiday home and we encourage you to spend time outdoors under the shaded terrace. Put out a platter of antipasto, uncork the wine, and simply enjoy each other’s company until the sun dips below the horizon. When you finally retreat indoors, you’ll find plenty of plush surfaces to doze off on, but none will rejuvenate you for the next day’s activities as much as your comfortable bed.

Enjoy coming together in the cosy, welcoming interiors of this home, feasting on a smorgasbord of Sicilian specialties in the traditional dining room.

There are plenty of inviting spaces outside, too, including a bocce ball court and hydromassage tub that's perfect for whiling away a balmy late afternoon. Why not start the day with a dip in the swimming pool, before drying off in the sun amid the scents of Sicily, which include ancient lemon and olive groves as well as the faint whisper of the salty Tyrrhenian?

The Scent of Sicily

Explore the unique Marsala region of Sicily's western coast with a stay at this stunning dwelling. We adore the enchanting tree path up to the front door, reminiscent of something from Middle Earth and giving the home a magical vibe before you've even stepped inside.

This home is charming and characterful, with exposed stonework ceilings, ornate tiled floors and quaint artwork. The dining room is ideal for feasting on home-cooked tagliatelle dishes with your loved ones, and the lounge area makes a great place for playing party games with friends and family on merry evenings. The home is made up of a main house, along with a separate annexe on the same grounds, ideal if you have guests that would like a little more privacy.

Outside is vibrant and fun, with a view out to the blue ocean that'll take your breath away. Here, you'll find an outdoor private pool that's great for morning swims as the sun rises, as well as plenty of poolside loungers where you can rest with your nose in a good book.

Perched on the hillside on the Sicilian coast, the view from this home’s terrace is simply sublime. Light stone surrounds the lagoon-shaped swimming pool which invites you for a cooling dip in the heat of the Sicilian sun and, wending your way around the terraced gardens, you’ll find a ping pong table, outdoor dining area and summer kitchen for days spent alfresco, all with a sea view. It’s a leisurely walk into the pretty coastal village of Scopello for pizzerias, seafront bars and a calm bay for swimming in the sea.

Inside, the villa feels beachy and traditional at the same time with wooden ceilings, crisp white walls and splashes of ocean blue. The table by the glass double doors offers a coastal panorama for long, leisurely breakfasts and the nautical theme of the decor is a reminder of your oceanfront location. The entire living area is open, thanks to an archway at the centre, making the kitchen, living and dining areas feel spacious and breezy. Bedrooms, with their splashes of artwork on the walls and cute wooden-shuttered windows, are a delight to retire to come bedtime.

A short trip from the bustling, colourful streets of the island capital of Palermo, seventy minutes by car will whisk you away to another world. This home in the west of Sicily sits in a region peppered with hillside villages, traditional fishing towns, and historic rural architecture. But this charming countryside abode has so much to offer, that you might fancy staying put.

The classic stone build of this restored ‘baglio’ is characteristic of the local area. Set around a paved courtyard with native foliage blooming all over the walls, this postcard-ready scene feels truly welcoming. Even better, you’ll be greeted with a hamper full of local goodies for breakfast. Naturally, you might want to set up brunch on the poolside terrace before dipping your toes in the pool, mimosa in hand.

When you need a break from the midday sun, you certainly won’t mind going inside to play table tennis in the resident's clubhouse, or relaxing in your own rustic villa. We love the exposed stonework in the living space, with grand timber beams propping up a wonderfully lofty ceiling. Minimal furniture lets the architecture do the talking, while the 'tricolore' colour scheme of the country kitchen is a vibrant little touch that makes cooking even more of a pleasure.

Set within acres and acres of olive groves, this villa is all about Sicily’s peace and quiet. If you do want to catch a bit of the island’s buzz and stock up on supplies, the historic town of Castelvetrano is a short drive away. But this place is all about the tranquil life, floating in the huge, turquoise swimming pool or enjoying a long, lazy lounge thanks to the full outdoor kitchen. There are plenty of shaded spots with comfy seating dotted around the grounds. 

The villa is set out courtyard-style, all on one level (except for one little turret) with white buildings clustered around the pool terrace. Bedrooms, living rooms and dining areas have their own entrances onto the terrace. Inside, we love the old-world feel of the place with its sloped, wooden ceilings in the bedrooms and Persian rugs in the living room. Furniture feels like it belongs to a 19th-century aristocrat. There’s a big wood-burning stove in the dine-in kitchen, though we doubt you’ll need it in the heat of spring, autumn and summer. All in all, this place feels like you’ve got your own castle in the Sicilian countryside. 

A Violin for Violet

Fall for this idyllic, sea-facing Sicilian villa, in a spectacular location just 150m from the gorgeous beach of Cala Mazzo di Sciacca. Whether you love a lazy day relaxing by the pool or a fun-filled adventure to the beach, this home is perfectly suited. Sip piña coladas in the shade of the swaying palms, enjoy a gentle bob in the crystal-clear pool water, and when lunchtime arrives head to the delightful terrace for an alfresco meal overlooking the changing moods of the ocean. 

Inside, the villa is just as dreamy. Stepping through, you'll love the sea-inspired interiors, vibrant blue colour palette and nautical artwork that serves as a constant reminder of your stunning surroundings and picturesque views. Fling open the double doors, inviting the sea breeze to sweep right inside the wonderfully open living space, kitchen and dining area, as you tuck into a home-cooked breakfast. 

If you can peel yourself away from this little pocket of paradise, the charming village of Scopello is well worth a visit and lies just ten minutes away from the villa on foot. Further afield (2km), you can also find Zingaro nature reserve and its pristine white-sand cove. 

Deep Blue

This pure white home is situated close by to the bright blue sea of Sicily, which can be admired from the comfort of your very own terrace. You'll also notice a fantastic view of the nearby rock formations accompanied by the glistening skies and verdant scenery. Relax on the sofa with a brand new book or watch TV from the dining table as you tuck into a light bite for breakfast. You'll wake up every day to the sound of the ocean waves and the locals having fun at the beach – making it incredibly hard not to spend every moment of the day outdoors. 

Head upstairs to the sun terrace to enjoy a bottle of wine with your loved ones under the sun – it's also a lovely little spot to dine on snacks together. Stretch out and put your feet up on one of the sun loungers as you spend the early afternoon in pure bliss before heading out to the beach. A seven–minute walk takes you to the golden sands for a day trip by the sea, followed by wandering through the streets of San Vito to discover local hidden gems and some delicious eateries.

Sicily's warm weather and minimal rainfall make it not only an excellent climate for growing citrus fruits but also ideal for year-round holidays. Designed to celebrate the warm temperatures, this home takes you from dips in the saltwater pool to alfresco meals on the terrace. The indoor and outdoor kitchens give you space to rustle up classic Sicilian dishes and create a feast to share amongst friends and family. Being only a short drive away from the beach you can explore the beautiful coastline and nearby islands by boat or simply take a picnic to the beach and enjoy dips in the crystal clear waters. Visit the nearby city of Trapani for excellent fish restaurants and ancient history.

Sitting in the silent Mediterranean wilderness of Favignana, this home is an architectural gem, crafted in local sandstone. The large open decks of this home give sweeping views over Erice, Trapani and Marsala as you settle in for a glass of wine or an evening massage. We do love our lavish kitchens but with the option of barbecue under the stars, a poolside kitchen and a fitness area, we can't see a reason to stay indoors. Equipped with underfloor heating and a focal Al Fresco dining area surrounded by nature, there are plenty of spaces for heartfelt bonding. At a stone's throw from the beach, it's also a good idea to bike along the calm coastline.

This modern marvel of a villa is ready to welcome you to your luxurious stay on the stunning island of Favignana in Sicily. Clean lines and calm colours come together to make the home feel serene and soft, while the raw concrete and contemporary lighting give it a modern and minimalistic feel. 

This pad also boasts plenty of places for you to create some wonderful holiday memories. The covered dining area sits in the heart of the home and invites you to feast with family and friends, while the cosy lounge makes for a lovely place to cuddle up on the sofa with a glass of wine. Outside, you’ll find a beautiful private pool covered by a sun shade, along with a covered barbecue area where you can grill up some Italian meats and veggies. There’s even a roof terrace where you can gaze at views of the ocean in the distance.

You’ll be ideally located for exploring all the best beaches of Favignana, where you’ll find dramatic white cliffs next to breathtaking turquoise seas. You’re also a short drive from Corso, a pretty and provincial Italian town where you can explore quaint streets of classical architecture.

A Spritz in Sicily

For a wholesome getaway in the Sicilian countryside, it doesn't get much cosier than this. With traditional kitchen tiles, exposed brick, and a sink of pure Italian stone, it feels like you've stepped right into a family home. Perfect for those that like to stay somewhere with character, personality, and that feels like a home from home. The furnishings are timeless – you'll love sitting around your dining table with a cup of coffee, admiring the traditional touches and the tall wood-beamed ceilings.

Up the steps, you'll reach the mezzanine that serves as a second bedroom. But you'll also find the door that leads out to what's arguably the shining gem of this home, the terrace. We love its rustic walls of ancient stone, that promise complete privacy. Mornings out here are particularly beautiful as you enjoy a breakfast spread on the outdoor dining table with the morning sun on your face, looking out at the vineyards and luscious rolling hills. And the cherry on top is your sparkling shared pool, complete with sun loungers and beach chairs. Relax while you look out at the view, taking all-important dips to escape the heat, and sipping on an afternoon glass of wine. 

When you want to get out and explore this beautiful corner of Sicily, you're around a twenty-five-minute drive from the whitewashed city of Trapani. There are plenty of rocky coves and beaches to relax and swim in the sea or simply wander around its narrow streets, soaking in the rich Sicilian culture. 

Terrace Hideaway

This is one of those stunning homes that make you want to take in every moment. The whitewashed walls of the villa stare out onto one of the most beautiful gardens on the Sicilian coastline, draped in colourful flowers and defined by the gorgeous stretch of greenery. It's a natural oasis that breathes life into your body.

That dreamy outdoor is probably where you'll spend most of your time, whether it's lounging on the sun beds, taking a swim in the pool or reading a book on the garden bench. 

When the group gathers together, share authentically Sicilian pizza and a few bottles of Grecanico wine on the table under the pergola. Enjoy each bite and savour each sip with the spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea in the background. 

The entire home is a luxurious palace to spend your Sicilian escape, and it's also a great base to explore the island. The neighbouring towns of Trapani and Marsala are just a short drive away, showcasing the charming restaurants and cafes along the Western coastline. 

If you fancied immersing yourself in more natural surroundings, Zingaro Nature Reserve and the glorious beaches are just further along the shoreline.

The Western Gardens

Cute and compact, this radiant villa is a wave of exuberance in the Sicilian countryside. An idyllic outdoor space blends a kaleidoscope of colours to create a dreamy setting for your Italian escape – and that's not even the best part. 

Wherever you sit in the terrace, you'll have stunning views of the mountainous landscape that sits behind the plant life. It's a vibrant oasis of gorgeous tones and striking scenery. 

Wander inside and the bold colours continue. Royal blues and deep reds decorate the communal areas, whilst the bedrooms feature lighter shades and floral patterns.

We imagine you'll spend most of your time outdoors, whether it's swimming in the pool or lounging on the sun beds. For meal times, a cute table rests under the veranda – we think you'll love sharing fettuccine alfredo or ravioli here, especially during the dreamy magic of sunset. 

If all that pasta has given you the energy for an adventure, you're spoilt for choice for day trips. Trapani and Marsala – two nearby towns – give a glimpse into the quintessential lifestyle of the locals. A little further afield, you'll discover Monte Cofano and Lo Zingaro nature reserves, a utopia of raw, natural beauty.

Throws

If you're looking for a cosy, wholesome getaway in a traditional Sicilian village, this home could be just the ticket. Nestled on the edge of Buseto Palizzolo, a small hillside village, this feels like the home of a Sicilian family. It's warm and inviting, with wood beamed ceilings, homely furniture, and traditional checkered floors. Upstairs, you'll find comfortable bedrooms, with high ceilings and charming decor. But in the outdoor area, you're taken somewhere completely different than a quaint cottage in a village – you have a terrace that offers a breathtaking view of the rolling mountains and vast countryside, as well as a long glistening pool for taking that all-important dips in the summer heat. Surrounded by gardens of palm trees and lush greenery, it's a delightful oasis. 

This home is a lovely place for a group of friends or small family to settle into the slower pace of life while exploring the charming surroundings. You're a short walk from local supermarkets and butchers, ideal for picking up a hearty breakfast. The most beautiful place to enjoy breakfast, or any of your meals, is in the open courtyard. The cobbled street, cream houses, and flowered hedges make it an idyllic spot. When you want to get out and explore this beautiful corner of Sicily, you're around a twenty-five-minute drive from the whitewashed city of Trapani. There are plenty of rocky coves and beaches to relax and swim in the sea or simply wander around its narrow streets, soaking in the rich Sicilian culture. 

Casa Chiara

This slow-paced hideaway makes the perfect setting for a dreamy island escape. Perched above the bay of Cala Mazzo di Sciacca with the beach just a short walk away, you’ll find yourself immersed in the natural beauty of northern Sicily. 

From early morning dips in the pool to lazy lunches on the terrace and golden-hour drinks followed by sizzling barbecue meals, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. And when you’re ready to head inside, you’ll find the air-conditioned rooms set the tone for total relaxation. 

Days can be spent drifting between the pool and the beach or exploring the coast. Admire the views whilst walking to the nearby bars and restaurants, take a boat trip, follow hiking trails or jump in the car and drive to Palermo. Wherever the day takes you, this home welcomes you to enjoy it all with ease, comfort and style.    

A Brighter View  

Umbrellas

The real joy of this home is its knockout setting. Standing brilliant white in the rugged Sicilian countryside, overlooking the glittering Mediterranean, it feels like pure bliss waking up here every morning. The house faces northeast, so you’re in for some spectacular sunrises – if you can get up, that is, as the plush beds are irresistible. 

Slick, all-grey interiors are kept deliberately simple to allow the technicolour landscapes to sing. The bedrooms are minimalist yet comfortable and with food at the heart of Sicilian living, it’s only right that this home’s only interior communal space is a large kitchen and dining room. 

Outside, it’s delightfully quiet – the ocean and the soft melody of birdsong the only sounds. Splash around in the pool before enjoying an aperitivo on the terrace. When you’re ready to head out and explore, the picturesque town of Castellammare del Golfo with its ochre fishermen’s houses and golden beaches are just twenty minutes away by car. 

Slate & Salt

An emblem of pure tranquility, this radiant villa on the northwestern coast of Sicily is made for peaceful escapes in the countryside. The sprawling stretches of green hills in the background showcase the privacy of your home. 

Wake up to a feeling of unbridled peace, hidden from the demands of everyday life. If you're looking for a restful place to unwind, this is the perfect place. Spend lazy mornings on the sun beds by the pool, cooling off with a quick dip in the fresh water. 

A cute table on the terrace is an idyllic spot to share arancini and Pinot Grigio, a dreamy experience enhanced by the spectacular views of the Sicilian scenery. There's also a sofa and cushioned chairs to relax in, a perfect setting when the sun sets beyond the undulating hillside. 

If those breathtaking views have inspired you to explore the island, your host can arrange a boat or car for day trips. For the nights where you just want an evening in, take advantage of the private chef service for a real treat of world-class dishes.

Verde Sprawl

With stunning views across the Gulf of Castellammare, a private infinity pool, and a shaded alfresco dining area, this villa ticks a lot of boxes. Located near the picturesque village of Scopello – which movie buffs may recognise from its cameo appearance in Hollywood's Oceans 12 – you’ll find a sandy beach, a weekly market, and a fishing harbour all within a 6-kilometre drive. We think this home is a great choice for a family or group of friends seeking a relaxing break in the sun.

Villa Dusk

Sound System

This villa rests on a hillside, 600 metres from Cala Mazzo di Sciacca beach. If you want to explore traditional Sicilian cuisine and wine in the local bars, the seaside village of Scopello sits prettily nearby. The coastline here is dotted with sweeps of soft sand and crystalline water, and the nature reserve of Zingaro is in the area.

 The home’s burnt-sienna facade is striking against a near-constant blue sky, and a terracotta roof and wooden shutters speak of old-world Sicily. In the private garden, olive trees shade the outdoor kitchen and the group can dine with a view of the endless sea. A bamboo pergola keeps things cool in the outdoor lounge and, when the heat gets too much, there’s a plunge-style swimming pool to cool off. The interior is crisp and clear with pops of sea-blue and turquoise matching the view from the corner windows. 

Sicilian Seascape

Parking On Street

Feel at home in this charming house that combines elements of Italy and Morocco. The living space has a more traditional feel, thanks to the wooden doors leading to the outside that let the fresh sea breeze in to wake you up in the morning. The outdoor area has to be the show stopper, where you can spend hours admiring the mountains and the turquoise sea from the comfort of the loungers, and enjoying a refreshing swim in the cool pool when the balmy heat gets too much.

Located in Cornino, a great starting point for discovering western Sicily. Prepare for a day of exploration and being awed by the beauty of nature with a forty-minute trip to The Zingaro Reserve – walk along the coastal path from Scopello to San Vito Lo Capo, where seven kilometres of diverse beauties await you. Your gaze will be drawn to the countless enchanting blue bays where the delicate hues of the silky white pebbles alternate with the roughness of the rock. The next day, take a thirty-minute drive to Trapani and relax on Mura di Tramontana beach before walking up the road along the sea wall to find a beautiful place for aperitivo, or continue towards the Ligni tower to meet a delightful tiny fishing village.


The Sicilian Way

Close to the ancient village of Eraclea Minoa, surrounded by Greek ruins and pristine sandy beaches, this contemporary villa is the perfect contrast between old and new. Boasting a beautiful garden, complete with a private pool, you can spend your time swimming and lounging on the comfy sunbeds which face the spectacular countryside. There's even a fitness suite here if you like to begin your days with a workout. 

However you choose to start the day, we highly recommend you spend the rest exploring the local area. The village itself has a few shops and restaurants, plus a magnificent sandy beach. You'll also find ancient ruins of a Greek theatre with incredible sea views, making this the ideal place for avid historians. 

When you return home, the patio awaits – tuck into a laid-back supper on the patio and enjoy the scenery. The hammock or swinging chair are great spots to catch a sunset – don't forget to pour yourself a glass of wine first. 

Bygone Beaches

It'll be hard to resist not spending every waking hour on the terrace at this beautiful home by the sea of Sicily. Inside you'll find a royal blue sofa that is perfect for lounging around as you read a book or socialise with your loved ones. There's an indoor dining table that is perfect for tucking into a delicious homemade meal, but there's also a stunning dining space with an open roof further into the home – fantastic for enjoying tasty food under the amber glow of an Italian sunset. The decor within the home is inspired by the ocean, fitting for the beautiful beachside location.

While away the hours on the sun terrace as you admire the view of the surrounding landscape under bright blue skies. There's a shaded sofa upon the terrace that is a lovely spot for a relaxing few hours with a bottle of fine red wine – allowing you to soak up the peaceful atmosphere as you listen to the sound of ocean waves in the distance.

The golden sand of San Vito beach is within a ten–minute walk away, giving you ample opportunities to spend your days at the beach with your family or friends. The charming town of San Vito offers a wide range of eateries for you to expand your taste palate and sample some incredible Italian cuisine, washed down with a refreshing glass of spritz.

The Royal Blue Sea

Offering the best of both worlds, this villa can be found in the lush Sicilian countryside whilst still close to the beach. With the outdoors overlooking sparkling views of the ocean to one side and rolling panoramas to the other, you'll likely want to spend all your time poolside. There are also several seating areas, including a balcony table perfect for alfresco breakfasts. Though the style here might not be everyone's cup of tea, it's well-kept and comfortable, with plenty of natural light. Location-wise, you're within walking distance of Lumia Beach. And Sciacca, with its Cathedral and vibrant staircases, is only a short drive away. 

The Olive Sea 

Situated near the charming town of Salemi in the Trapani area of Sicily, this country villa epitomises Mediterranean charm. From the vine-covered pergola setting – perfect for alfresco meals and Italian aperitifs shaded from the sun to the private swimming pool and sun terrace – it's easy to unplug and unwind from the outdoor areas here. The inside also gives off quintessential Italy, and while the classic designs might not be to everyone's tastes, they certainly add to the authentic Sicilian aesthetic. Beyond the villa, the surrounding Trapani region offers attractions such as the beaches of Marsala, Scopello town, and Zingaro nature reserve. 

Palms & Pearls

Anyone in search of a unique stay filled with character will love this home. Consisting of a main house and an independent annexe, you’ll find an abundance of Italian charm along with a peaceful garden and private swimming pool. You will need a car to get around here, but your host can help organise car rentals as well as a range of extra services – including wine tastings. Days can be spent lounging by the pool, exploring the beaches of Marsala or visiting towns like Trapani (35 kilometres away). 

A Drop of Beauty

A short drive from central Terrasini on Siciliy's northern coast, this sleek one-storey villa set upon sprawling grounds is perfect for two couples or a family who can't choose between beach and city.
