Description
Stay in elegant splendour when you vacation in the lovingly renovated, early twentieth-century, double-fronted Diodoro villa in Marsala on the west coast of the Italian island of Sicily. This impressive detached, two-storey villa has four spacious bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests in some style. The villa would be perfect for a family holiday or a group of friends’ get-together. The property has its own formal Italian gardens, a meticulously manicured lawn, and a private saltwater swimming pool. Diodoro has all the mod cons, including partial air conditioning in the sitting room and bedrooms, complimentary Wi-Fi, satellite TV, and private parking through the electronic gates. The exterior is impressive, with a raised ground floor and a set of steps on either side of the shuttered front door. The interiors are exquisite, retaining the original cool stone tile floors and high-barrel ceilings. They are furnished with classic formal pieces, contrasted with contemporary bathrooms and a kitchen.
Enter the villa through the shuttered doors, where you will find a beautiful holiday home. The sitting room has a sofa, armchairs and a satellite television. The blue and white kitchen is fully equipped with all the appliances you will need to cater for your stay, including that must-have morning coffee maker and a garden-view veranda. Two formal dining areas have heavy wood tables, sideboards, and armoires for seriously splendid indoor entertaining. A staircase leads to a delicate Majolica tiled garden and Sicilian countryside view wrought iron balcony. There are four well-appointed double bedrooms, all with air conditioning. Two bedrooms have double beds and ensuite bathrooms with showers, hand basins, and WCs. There is a bedroom with a double bed and a bedroom with twin beds with a small balcony. They share a bathroom with a walk-in shower, hand basin and WC.
The gardens are gorgeous, populated with tall, shady palm trees and a centrepiece, a step-entry saltwater swimming pool surrounded by inviting sun loungers. As dusk falls, meet at the patio seating for cocktails before dining alfresco with dishes freshly grilled on the barbeque. /n Security deposit /n €800 charged to client's credit card as a pre-authorisation at least 2 weeks prior to arrival and refunded two weeks after departure, subject to full inspection. /n Arrival time /n 4.00 p.m. - 8.00 p.m. Check-in outside this time may be subject to an extra cost.
