Food and Travel Magazine and thinkSicily

June's issue of the award-winning Food and Travel Magazine includes a Gourmet Traveller's guide to Palermo. Food and wine expert Marc Millon and photographer Roderick Field spent a few days with Max, Rossella and Huw of thinkSicily meeting their foodie friends and discovering all manner of Palermitan food, including a typical family lunch at sea-front Villa Favola.

If you're staying in a thinkSicily villas why not let us organise the services of a local chef or cook and experience the wonders of Sicilian cuisine without moving!

A few of our larger villas still have a little availability in July and August... Space and comfort are guaranteed and all come with excellent price reductions too! 

Recipe number 42 - succulent tuna with Spring peas!

Oh, the joys of Spring! For me they include the welcome appearance of fresh tuna in the fishmongers and sitting in the warm evening sunshine podding peas while sipping a chilled glass of white wine!

Throw in a little fresh aromatic mint and you've got the perfect Sicilian primavera feast, bursting with goodness and the bounty of Spring!

Sunny spring is the perfect time for updating our villas' slideshows! Take a look at the results so far but make sure you keep coming back - new photos will appear soon, including those of the new pools at Il Ferrarolo and Masseria Moscala!

Chill out... the heat is on at Baia dei Turchi!

Turkish bath, spa, gym, Jacuzzi and heated pool...

Luxury villa or private spa? Baia dei Turchi is both and guests staying there want for nothing!

Got plans for your holiday? Here's an idea: start with an invigorating work out in the gym, move on to a cooling frolic in the pool, lie down for an uplifting massage, potter off for a steamy cleansing sauna and then, as night falls, slide into the bubbling Jacuzzi for a bit of moonlit magic. Next day, repeat! 

Add on daily maid service and the possibility of hiring a chef and you are left with no alternative except to wind down, relax and look after yourself!

Baia dei Turchi has it all for the ultimate pampering holiday!
