Overview

Welcome to Villa Amphora: an elegant and spacious luxury villa, located along the gentle ridge of a hillside, the panorama embracing the vibrant town of Carini and its vast coastline.

The location is particularly fortunate, as it allows easy access to the main beaches and the city of Palermo, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Exposed brickwork and wood are very much in evidence throughout the modern interiors.

A beautiful Moorish style wrought iron gate leads from a cosy reception area, complete with rocking chair, to the bright living area with armchairs and an elegant wooden dining table. There is also a small bar area here.

The kitchen is furnished in wood with stone worktops and is equipped for all modern conveniences. There is also a smaller dining table for informal coffee and reading breaks.

A highlight of the property is the charming octagonal tower, which houses a naturally lit living room with large picture windows, sofas and plenty of potted palm plants for a tropical feel.

The villa has six bedrooms, each with its own character and modern tiled floors, and there are five bathrooms/shower rooms.

Outside there is a large swimming pool, which enjoys sea views and with hydro-massage corner, as well as a partially covered and tiled terrace with dining table & chairs, and mood lighting for al fresco dining on pleasant summer evenings.

The ample and diverse spaces, both indoors and outdoors, allow everyone to find their own private corner and enjoy their leisure moments at will.

Please note that when the party size is 10 persons total, the double bedroom with an additional single bed will be closed.
