Romantic family-friendly suite with pool close to archaeological - natural parks
The romantic threeroom suite is part of Villa Paladino Solunto. it is a fascinating and enchanting site, between history and nature at the gates of Palermo. It is a small complex of 5 suites (3 threeroom suites for 4-5 people and 2 tworoom sutes for 2-4 people) smartly standing on a lush hill, emerging on the ridge of the wonderful promontory of Monte Catalfano, adiacent to the Archaeological Park of Solunto and the Natural Reserve of Monte Catalfano. This paradise of relax is also a strategic point to easily go sightseeing Palermo, Monreale, Cefalù, Caccamo, Agrigento, Mozia, Erice, the Natural Reserve of Zingaro, the National Natural Madonie Park and many other places of great tourist interest.
The distance from sea is only mt 800
It is very near to Palermo (Km.10, 30 minutes by car and 20 by train).
You can look at spectacular sunsets on the sea sitting on the benches and deck chairs around the wonderful pool similar to a natural lake in the middle of a large Mediterranean garden rich in different plants and birds. You can also look at the Gulf of Palermo and Monte Pellegrino too ("The most beautiful promontory of the world", said Goethe, the well known German poet who came in Sicily in 19th century) while swimming in the pool.
200 meters away from the Villa you may visit the touristic village of Santa Flavia and the fishing villages of Porticello and S.Elia,full of shops, restaurants, pubs, bar and pizzerias, where you can taste delicious Sicilian dishes .Near the coast, there is the underwater archaeological site of Formica. Boat trips with skipper in the clear waters around the Scoglio della Formica (the Rock of the Ant), home of dolphins, up to the Aeolian Islands, and fishing can be arranged not only in summer
you can easily go in less than an hour from the sea to the mountain, taking part in sightseeing, excursions in the great Madonie National Park (alt m. 2000).
Each suite is tastefully decorated and full-equipped to have a wonderful holiday: in the lodge you can have romantic and relaxing breakfast, lunch and readings; then, you find on the ground floor a nice, bright and cozy sitting room, a kitchnette and a bathroom; upstairs, the two nice, bright and cozy bedrooms, the master room and the twinbedroom. Each one has a great wiew on the garden, the gulf of Palermo and Cefalù, the mointains around Palermo, Madonie mountains and the Golden Valley or the Archaeological Park of Solunto and the Natural Reserve of monte Catalfano.

I moved from Palermo to S. Flavia just 6 years ago. Santa Flavia is a wonderful place among sea, mountains, nature and art, where you can find a lot of kind people and spend your life as you were always on holidays.
Villa Paladino Solunto is a small paradise between history and nature, adiacent to the Archaeological Park of Solunto and the Natural Reserve of Monte Catalfano and close to nice fishing villages where you can find everything you need. In only 15 minutes by train you can get Palermo or Cefalù. I love look at spectacular sunsets on the Gulf of Palermo and the wonderful Monte Pellegrino ("The most beautiful promontory of the world") walking in the garden. What about swimming near the underwater archaeological site of Formica and together with dolphins?
