Gaze at a panoramic view of the Mediterranean from Casa Splendida, a villa in Sicily on the northern coastline. During summer, enjoy both sunrise and sunset from the sun terraces and swimming pool, and escape the mid-day sun on a shaded terrace perfect for al-fresco meals from the external kitchen with barbecue. The terraced country garden includes both mature olive and pine trees, and you can walk in the beautiful Madonie National Park, with paths right from the villa’s gate.
The villa’s interior, newly refurbished to a high standard, is light and airy with a contemporary style and neutral tones. Six can sleep in comfort in the main house, which has 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The guest house on site adds room for two more with a double bedroom and bathroom, and an additional kitchen, dining area and lounge with sofa bed.
Drive the short distance to the sandy beaches with calm water in Cefalu, and explore the historic town centre's narrow streets and bustling Sicilian piazzas. Climb the Rocca hill to see ancient megalithic ruins and spectacular coastal views.
Casa Splendida is just over an hour's drive from the Palermo airport and 2 hours away from Trapani and Catania.
