The Area

Set on the coast of Guidaloca bay, between the Golfo di Castellammare and the nature reserve of Lo Zingaro, Euridice 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 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 (or 15mins walk) on the road towards Scopello.

The old tuna fishery (tonnara) of Scopello, about a 5-minute drive away, 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 couple of minutes drive away at Guidaloca beach.

The town of Castellammare del Golfo a few kilometres east along the coast has several seafront bars and restaurants, a daily fish market and a long sandy beach.

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.

An illustration of a guest book

Beautiful location, we loved the open lawn for the kids, the pine trees/view with the little table to sit for an Apero, and the swimming platform below the house was just divine. Inside was well-stocked with pantry items, soaps and wash items, and even insect repellents. Those were all little things but it was so nice not needing to buy all them upon on our arrival.

We loved Euridice. Great design and layout. We loved the large outdoor area for lounging and having meals. The access to the water was good and the swimming was incredible.

Mr Eduardo Conrado, United States of America July 2022

Euridice is a beautiful villa on a magical property situated 73 steps above the azure blue sea. It was just outstanding in every respect, beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean with comfortable furniture inside and out. Not enough words to describe how much we enjoyed this stay.

TB, United States of America June 2022

Euridice is very comfortable and in excellent condition. It is very nice to have Scopello market so near, and the center of Scopello is also a great place to spend the late afternoon / early evening - those are two pluses for the villa that should not be underemphasized.

AA, United States of America July 2021

Very friendly and professional cleaning service!

Verified guest, September 2020

We had an amazing time at Euridice. The owners were just so helpful. I've rented villas before but your customer service is just outstanding.
