Villa Giardinata

Perched in the hills of Valderice in the Val di Erice, this Mediterranean bed & breakfast sits minutes from Erice and about a 15‑minute drive to Nino Croce Theater and the Basilica‑Sanctuary of Maria Santissima Annunziata. Beaches like S. Vito Lo Capo and the Port of Trapani are an easy drive, and Zingaro Nature Reserve and the bay of Cornino are within reach. Family-friendly and pet-friendly, it’s a quiet base for coastal Sicily explorations.

Housed in a restored baglio (rural farmhouse) with rustic-meets-modern rooms, Villa Giardinata blends traditional furnishings with contemporary comforts. There are just four individually decorated guestrooms with memory‑foam beds, Frette Italian sheets, private patios, LED TVs and minibars; bathrooms offer rainfall showerheads and complimentary toiletries. Gardens, olive groves and three distinct garden areas—villa, old garden and orange blossom—frame the property, and peacocks and jasmine add to the atmosphere.

Take in views from a rooftop terrace, solarium and multiple gardens that look toward Cornino Bay and Erice. On‑site features include free Wi‑Fi, a hair salon, concierge, secure parking and a shared kitchen. Active options and local trips are easy to arrange via the tour desk—trekking, diving and excursions are popular—and babysitting/childcare is available for a surcharge.

For business or transfer needs the property offers a computer station, express check‑in and limo/town car service. Roundtrip airport shuttles and train station pick‑ups can be arranged for a surcharge.

A coffee shop/café and a bar/lounge keep things simple and local, with a wine bar for relaxed evenings. Continental breakfast is served daily (fee applies) and 24‑hour room service is available; guests also enjoy a complimentary daily reception to mingle before heading out to taste Sicilian cuisine.
