LIVING SPACES
The rooms are sun-filled and uncluttered, exuding a relaxed atmosphere, ideal for setting the vacation mood. An elegant sitting room, with TV, and a formal dining area make for easy living, while a petite-yet-efficient kitchen features direct access onto the patio which is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.
OUTDOOR FEATURES
The villa’s professionally landscaped garden with its tropical plants and trees features a private 12.5 m x 4.5 m swimming pool surrounded by a white-picket-fence framed sundeck. The patio is elegantly furnished and perfect for enjoying the seaside atmosphere. Enjoy the feeling of tranquility at Villa Elegia, which is within walking distance to the vibrant shops, restaurants, beach, and more, of Mondello Bay.
SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
Villa Elegia is the perfect accommodation for a family vacation because, thanks to its three separated units, it allows privacy within a group. The bay of Mondello, a quintessential beach town, with its mile-long sandy coastline with many private establishments, is very safe for kids as its seabed remains shallow for several meters from the shore and there are no dangerous currents. Moreover, the villa is located less than a mile from the town, making it ideal for those who want to reach it on foot to enjoy ice cream, a drink at one of the laid-back bars, or the catch of the day at a local restaurant.

The island of Sicily offers a number of wonderful places to visit on daytrips or excursions. In the northern area, you might want to include cities such as Palermo, Monreale, Cefalù, Castelbuono, Erice, Segesta, Marsala, and Trapani to your must-see. The eastern coast of the island is also worth exploring, starting from the famous cities of Taormina, Catania, Syracuse, Noto, and Ragusa and the utterly unforgettable volcanic peak of Mt. Etna. The extraordinary city of Palermo is the capital of Sicily, so beautiful that Maupassant described it as “the most beautiful religious jewelry dreamed by human thought”. Visit the richly decorated churches, the imposing monuments and lose yourself in the little streets of the historical center. Explore the archeological site of Segesta, once one of the most important fortified cities on the north Sicilian basin. Do not pass on Erice, the ancient medieval village rich in history and charm. If you venture up to Marsala, drive along the Salt Route and enjoy the burning sunset reflected on the lagoon of the salt mines. You will never forget it! And take note that Marsala, known as the “city of wine”, has been producing a sweet dessert wine of the same name for more than 200 years. Do not leave the island without at least a bottle of this liquid gold!
