This villa in the seaside resort of Alcamo Marina has all the essentials for a special Sicilian holiday. It’s a short drive from sandy beaches like Calatubo and Balestrate for swimming, snorkelling, and sunbathing. And it’s also day trip distance from coastal gems like Castellammare del Golfo and Scopello, so it’s easy to see more of this idyllic island. Back at the house, enjoy lazy pool days and leisurely lunches on the terrace, with a ribbon of sea view in the distance. There’s a sofa bed too, sleeping one guest, which makes this a good pick for a family stay in the sun.
