Based at the foot of the Monte Pellegrino and boasting breathtaking views over the sparkling Mediterranean sea, this spectacular apartment showcases everything great about Sicily. The Addaura neighbourhood on your doorstep is one of the greenest spaces in the city, with plenty of heart-pumping hikes on offer nearby. A stone's throw from the rocky shoreline, it's perfect for a refreshing dip. However, you'll want to head a couple of kilometres north to Mondello Beach for an inviting stretch of golden sand to lay your towel out. The beach is backed by plenty of lively bars and welcoming restaurants – perfect for long lunches out of the midday sun. For a spot of culture, head into the historic centre of Palermo, twenty-five minutes away. Here, you'll witness a cultural melting pot that's been bubbling away for centuries, creating a city that's quite unlike any other. Sumptuous street food, countless beautiful churches and plenty of piazzas for people-watching – the city is a real feast for the senses.
