The modernist villa with a gate to the sea
The immaculate white-washed walls and impeccably modernist lines of Ai Faraglioni sit amidst a veritable oasis of sea-view terraces overlooking one of Sicily's most picturesque and evocative stretches of coastline. Add to this heady mix a heatable infinity pool, a Jacuzzi and direct access to the transparent waters below, and it's not hard to see why Ai Faraglioni is such an irresistible proposition.

Set on the coast between the Golfo di Castellammare and the nature reserve of Lo Zingaro, Ai Faraglioni occupies a prime spot on one of the most beautiful and striking stretches of coastline in Sicily.
The small village of Scopello just up the hill has a good selection of restaurants and bars, and can be reached by car in about 5 minutes. There is also a mini-market (with an excellent deli, butcher's and wine selection), a good bar and an organic farm shop selling superb fruit and vegetables about 5 minutes drive away on the road towards Guidaloca beach.
The old tuna fishery (tonnara) of Scopello, a few hundred metres walk away (or a 200m swim!), occupies a very suggestive setting, and Lo Zingaro Nature Reserve offers a range of spectacular walks and some beautiful crystal clear bays for swimming. There is a diving centre in Scopello for SCUBA lovers and a pebbly beach with equipped lidos just a 5-minute drive away at Guidaloca.
The town of Castellammare del Golfo a few kilometres up the road has several seafront bars and restaurants and a daily fish market.
The spectacular Elymian/Greek site of Segesta is about 30 minutes' drive away and Erice, Palermo, Trapani and Selinunte can all be reached in under an hour.
From the Guest Book
Ai Faraglioni was extraordinary - the amenities and the location along with the outstanding views. Would we return? Yes, yes for sure it was incredible location and had many little bonuses like steps to the ocean, a pool and a Jacuzzi. I look forward to always trusting The Thinking Traveller for my travel needs - I felt like you have screened only the best places!
