The epitome of elegance, seclusion and exclusivity, Villa
Sant’ Andrea is an elite holiday residence-cum-hotel once the privately-owned
hideaway of a family of British aristocrats located in a secluded Sicilian bay.
The interior of the property maintains its cool, stately-home ambience by means
of traditionally elegant furnishings, rich fabrics and acres of polished woods,
and the guest rooms are bright, sunny and spacious with the same touch of
old-style class.
This
holiday palace is set on Sicily’s Bay of Mazzaro, remote from the busy,
noisy centres of tourism on the island. Peace, quiet, traditional comfort and
exquisite service are the highlights here, combined with dramatic views across
the Mediterranean and its rocky coastline. The resort boasts a secluded,
private beach sloping gently to crystal-clear waters perfect for a refreshing
swim before breakfast.
The guest rooms offer king-sized beds, polished wood floors
dotted with antique Persian rugs, antique furnishings and rich cream textiles,
and have picture windows opening onto balconies with magnificent views.
Elegance and comfort go beyond luxury to a very different age over 100 years
ago, with the modern world celebrated only by the superbly-fitted en suite
facilities and their upscale bath products.
Villa Sant’Andrea’s Restaurant Oliviero serves the freshest
seafood dishes anywhere, delivered every morning to the hotel’s jetty by local
fishermen, and also specialises in Sicilian
gastronomy local to the area. Rich, flavourful and bursting with the
health-giving properties of olive oil, fresh produce and locally grown herbs,
wining and dining on the restaurant’s outdoor terrace is a treat for all the
senses and will delight even the fussiest gourmet.
The hotel specialises in luxury spa holidays, with its
Wellness Centre a hub for exquisite and relaxing treatments utilising
health-giving Mediterranean traditional herbal and natural products. It’s the
perfect way to unwind in glorious surroundings, and children’s spa treatments
are also offered.
Families are more than welcome here, with supervised playroom, outdoor and creative activities giving parents a welcome break from the sometimes questionable joys of family life. Villa Sant’Andrea isn’t just a luxury spa hotel, it’s a unique recreation of a long-ago, far less stressed lifestyle.
