Reduced Occupancy
During the shoulder seasons, Il Canneto has a reduced price for a group of up to 2 that only need 1 bedroom. The bedrooms not required will be closed, but the rest of the villa, its amenities and its grounds will remain at the complete disposal of guests. If unspecified, the best bedroom will be prepared for you.About the property
Inside
the main entrance at Il Canneto takes you into the spacious main living area with its high white beamed ceilings (a feature that continues throughout the house) and its clever combination of contemporary furnishings, such as the stylish hanging fireplace, and more traditional pieces of Sicilian furniture. Large glass doors open onto the internal courtyard on one side and onto the pool terraces, with their sea views, on the other.To the right of the luminous living room is the large kitchen diner, which will delight keen cooks thanks to its professional oven and stove, its sea views and its direct access to a sheltered courtyard al fresco dining area. Also on this side of the living area is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room.
Heading back across the living room, one comes to another two bedrooms, a sea-view double with en-suite bathroom with sunken bath and shower, and another double with an adjacent shower room.
Lastly, in a room below the pool is a fantastic wellness area and gym including a Turkish bath (for up to four people), a hydromassage tub (for two people), a cyclette, a tapis roulant, a couple of fitness balls, a shower and a WC.
Outside
Il Canneto is surrounded by non-stop terraces, some offering fabulous views, others cosily sheltered and shady! Just outside the main entrance is an aromatic herb garden and the rest of the grounds are planted with Mediterranean flowers, shrubs and trees.Accessed from the kitchen, the outdoor dining area features both a pull-down barbecue and a pizza oven. A flight of steps leads up from here to the rooftop terrace, the perfect panoramic spot from which to take in the views, sip an aperitif and toast the sunset. This is a particularly hedonistic experience if you’ve spent a sunny day lounging around and swimming in the superb infinity pool, whose swimming pump will help you work up an appetite for that pizza you’re planning to make!
A panoramic shaded pergola and sun soaked solarium on the other side of the house complete the outdoor living spaces.

About the Area
Il Canneto is situated on the southwest coast of Sicily midway between Agrigento, famous for the archaeological site of the Valley of the Temples, and Sciacca, a working fishing town with a well preserved historic centre and some excellent restaurants. A little further west along the coast past Sciacca, is another superb archaeological site, that of Selinunte.
The gorgeous long sandy beaches of the Torre Salsa Nature Reserve and Eraclea Minoa (which also has an impressive archaeological site) are just a few kilometres away, while if you head inland, you will find some historic hill-top towns, such as Caltabellotta, and the stunningly positioned castle of Mussomeli.
Considerations
Il Canneto features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning views while in the pool. There is a drop off the infinity side so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools.
You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.4m
Parts of the route to this property are unpaved and a little rough. We therefore recommend guests hire a 4-wheel drive car or one with high ground clearance.
