Villa Bene is situated only a few kilometres from the centre of Marsala city and within easy access to the beach. This villa is the perfect option for those looking for relaxation but also wish to be close to the city and beach. The nearest restaurant can be found only a short walk away and Marsala is only a short drive away for when you fancy eating out somewhere different or buying groceries to cook up your own feast!
Marsala is a bustling city full of charm and you could fill several days exploring as there is much to see! Surrounded by hills and vineyards producing the famous Marsala dessert wine, this city is rich in Baroque buildings and churches, as well as ancient monuments.
Another one of Marsala’s great attractions is its proximity to amazing Sicilian natural beauty. You’ll have no lack of choice when it comes to sandy beaches. San Vito Lo Capo (considered by some to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Italy) is just over an hour away if you fancy a change of scenery! Another site of natural beauty is the Stagnone reserve, a protected site which offers stunning natural landscapes where flora and fauna flourish. The marine area with shallow waters creates the perfect environment for salt pans.
Mazara del Vallo is also a unique spot worth a visit. This town was once the most important harbour in the Mediterranean sea, and here a typical Arab ‘casbah’ can still be visited today. Finally, if you are looking for a full day trip out the Egadi Islands are definitely worth exploring and can be reached by boat from Marsala. These islands are gorgeous and walking around them you can find deserted mountain paths, secluded coves and bays with crystal clear waters.
