Belich is located just a few kilometres outside Menfi, a wine-making town surrounded by vine-carpeted hills and olive groves.
Some of Sicily's best beaches run along the coast below Menfi and one of these, is a long expanse of sand in the Belice Nature Reserve is just a 300m-walk away along a natural path. Other beaches, including the one at Porto Palo, are just a few minutes' drive away. The beaches in the area of Porto Palo-Menfi have received over 20 consecutive "Bandiere Blu", attesting to the cleanliness of the water and their general ecological excellence.
Not to be missed for anyone staying in the area are the superb archaeological sites of Selinunte and the Cave di Cusa. After a visit to these, you might like to enjoy a superb lunch or dinner at La Pineta, a great seafood restaurant on the beach of the Belice Nature Reserve. Several of the towns nearby are also well worth a visit. Sciacca and Mazara del Vallo both have charming old centres, some great seafood restaurants and working ports with large fishing fleets working the Mediterranean daily. A little further afield but still in easy day-trip distance are Marsala, Trapani and Erice. Caltabellotta is spectacularly situated in the craggy hills overlooking both coast and interior, while Menfi itself is an up-and-coming centre of excellence for the wine trade.
Cycling in the Menfi area is a very pleasurable pastime, thanks to both the quiet back roads and the purpose-built cycle track along and around the old railway line between Menfi, Porto Palo and Sciacca (running quite close to Belich).
From the Guest Book
Belich is a really beautiful villa, furnished with incredible eclectic taste. Loved it, hated leaving! We don't usually return to the same places as we like new experiences, but I think Belich would tempt us to a repeat!

Belich was a perfect home for us to stay in. The design details, amenities, and view were all spectacular. The service we received and the guidebooks to the area were indispensable.
