Villa Canto del Mare is a particularly charming Sicilian holiday villa built directly by the sea, with a magnificent garden and fantastic sea view terraces, on a stretch of coast right between the towns of Balestrate and Terrasini and close to the village of Trappeto. The sea front villa has been built into the surrounding landscape, following it’s contours and is divided into three independent levels of which one is set at a higher point to the others, at a short distance to the others. The terraces offer a great view of the sea and of West Sicily and plenty of outdoor space for all sorts of activities with the sun terrace or the roofed terrace providing shade and the outdoor kitchen with large dinging table for ‘Al Fresco’ dining. Following the large stone paved area to the entrance you become aware of the great contrasts between the green vegetation, the flowers and the intense blue of the sea.
Villa Canto del Mare has been tastefully furnished and the rooms are cosy and comfortable, each with a superb view of the sea and the gulf. There are 4 different terraces all of which are facing the sea. There is a path through the garden that leads you to the sea, where you have direct access. Villa Canto del Mare can accommodate up to 14 guests (incl 1 in sofa bed in the living). It offers direct sea access a few steps from the villa. Enjoy jumping into the water at sunset followed by a lovely dinner or aperitifs on one of the terraces, is an experience not to be missed!
