Our Art Nouveau Villa by the sea at Arenella, overlooking the Palermo coast, dates back to the Sicilian Art Nouveau period. It is located within the former Arenella chemical plant, now disused, but once a thriving industrial facility. The villa, which boasts 5 beautiful bedrooms, is surrounded by a Mediterranean garden with a large ficus tree at its centre and a charming swimming pool with a sea-view terrace. The garden is equipped with tables and chairs and the pool with sun loungers and deck chairs for your complete relaxation.
The area is quiet and in summer the temperature is pleasant, thanks to the surrounding vegetation and proximity to the sea.
Furthermore, Villa Liberty hosts a cultural association, therefore it is possible to meet external guests and for events to be held in the common spaces.
The Magenta room, ideal for 4 people, features a double bed, a sofa bed convertible into a double bed and an en-suite bathroom with shower, and overlooks the interior of the villa. The room's style is modern, with the inclusion of antique elements such as the distinctive decorated wooden bed headboard.
