We stayed in Villa Salinara apartment in September for little over a week. Yumi and Adriano welcomed us on our first day and then we were taken a very good care of by the housekeeper Shan who was always around. There was water and fruit waiting for us upon our arrival and we got some fresh eggs and vegetables from domestic farm in the course of the week.

The apartment is exactly as described and shown on the pictures. It has been beautifully restored and decorated in an authentic Sicilian-Moroccan style. There is a spacious living area with an impressive fireplace and a big dining table, kitchen equipped with a gas hob, fridge with freezer and a dishwasher, little bathroom and a bedroom which is situated on the mezzanine. Bedroom area can get a bit hot in the summer but the fan is provided to help. Apartment is surrounded by a spacious garden with a table and chairs. The villa itself is situated in a very quiet and safe area.

The nearest coastline is not far away however you will need a car or a bike to get there. There is no beach, only a wooden pier and cars are passing by. To find a sandy beach you will need to drive a bit longer (10-15 mins) either to Marsala or in the opposite direction. Villa is a good starting point for discovering the nearby island of Mozia, salt pans, Marsala town, Trapani or beautiful ruins of Segesta and Selinute.

We have enjoyed our stay in Antique Emporio of Grapes as well as discovering the Western Sicily.
