Açıklama İngilizceHaving travelled across the world, the owners chose to build their dream home overlooking the ancient salt pans in the Stagnone Nature Reserve. Once you experience the sunset from the rooftop terrace you will soon realise why this part of western Sicily is so special – the views towards the vines, sea and islands are truly idyllic.

Villa La Vela is a beautifully designed contemporary holiday home with a private swimming pool only a 15-minute drive from historic Marsala. Air-conditioned throughout, the villa comfortably sleeps up to 7 guests across three stylish double bedrooms, all with en suite shower or bathrooms, one also featuring a sofa-bed.

The open-plan living and dining space is especially impressive with picture book windows framing the views and artwork on display inspired by the everchanging hues of the surrounding landscapes.  Meanwhile, the modern kitchen is brilliantly equipped to prepare meals to enjoy on the al-fresco terrace – the owners can also help arrange a private cook or chef.

The salt-water swimming pool is made from grey marble whilst a sleek decked terrace features sun loungers for relaxing days by the pool. The highlight of the villa is its rooftop terrace and lounge – enjoy a glass of marsala as you watch the most magnificent sunset.

It’s around a 15-minute walk to a tiny harbour with a couple of café-bars, a small museum and boat trips to the archaeological site on Mothia Island. A little further, come across kite-surfing spots and kayaking opportunities. It’s also fantastic to explore the nature reserve by bike and there is horse-riding within a short drive.

Beyond the salt pans, drive to the historic town of Marsala to sample its famous fortified wine or head to Trapani to soak up its rich heritage and authenticity. Discover pretty beaches and summer lidos, try the wonderful cuisine of the region (fresh seafood, pasta and cous cous alongside a blend of Mediterranean and North African flavours) and take a boat trip across to the Egadi Islands for yet more breathtakingly beautiful scenery in western Sicily.
