About the Property

Inside: arrival at the house is via a long winding drive through the olive groves. Villa Lumia is on two floors. On the ground floor is a large living area, with sofas, open fireplace and dining table. The kitchen is very well equipped, and there is a small service kitchen beside it with an extra stove. Also on this floor are a double bedroom and a bedroom with a bunk bed. On the upper floor, which is accessible via both inside and outside staircases, are two large double bedrooms with walk-in windows leading to the panoramic terrace. All bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms with showers.

Outside: the estate is in an outstanding position, with views of the countryside and the sea all around. The house has two terraces. The covered one on the ground floor is wonderful for long lunches shaded from the summer sun, whereas the upper terrace is fabulous in the morning and the evening. The 12x6 metre infinity pool with teak decking will surely be one of the focual points of your holiday. There is also a small play area for children and an outdoor bathroom with shower. The nearest sandy beach is a 10-minute downhill walk via a private path across part of the extended property. Alternatively, if you have too much to carry or young children, a 4 minute drive will get you there! The coastline is fairly deserted even in the height of summer. The owner produces an excellent olive oil on the estate.

The Area

Exploring the local Area

Villa Lumia is four kilometres from Sciacca, a working fishing town with a well preserved and fascinating historic centre and some excellent shops and restaurants. Sciacca was founded by the Greeks in the fifth century BC, when the residents of Selinunte made use of its hot thermal springs as a spa. There are several thermal spa complexes in and around the town where visitors can bathe in the hot sulphurous waters. The town was prosperous during the occupation of the Saracens from the ninth century, but the most impressive buildings date from the time of the Normans. Sciacca is well placed for visiting the Greek sites of both Selinunte and The Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, and is a little over one hour drive from Palermo, making it a strategic base for several excursions.

The coast around Sciacca is sprinkled with excellent sandy beaches and those around Porto Palo-Menfi have received 13 consecutive "Bandiere Blu", attesting to the cleanliness of the water and their general ecological excellence.

 Natalie Warman, Canada, 30 July 2011
"I just wanted to let you know that we had a fabulous time at Villa Principe di Lumia... It was comfortable and gorgeous, the food was plentiful and delicious, and we fell in love with Sicilia (again). We already we are making up a list of things to do when we come back, which includes staying at one of your Think Sicily villas. We are very impressed with the property and how well organized your agency is. It was all fantastic... the best holiday in Sicily we've ever had..."

Daniel Shaw, United States, 18 June 2011
"We loved the house and had a fantastic time (perfect with two young children)... proximity to Agrigento, Selinunte and some incredible nearby beaches... The wine was there and most welcome upon our arrival (see our Planeta wine delivery service), and the cook prepared several delicious dinners for us and cleaned up beautifully."

G Timothy Lee, United States, 19 September 2010
"The staff were lovely women who were interested in making our stay comfortable and interesting."
