Among the lush vineyards and olive groves of the Val di Mazara Wine Road, Villa Altair stands as a corner of tranquility and authenticity. Surrounded by the greenery of the Sicilian countryside, this charming Rural Tourism establishment resides in an ancient "baglio" from the 19th century, expertly renovated to reflect the local rural architecture, while staying true to the charm of bygone times.

The spacious, bright rooms offer a comfortable retreat, with private bathrooms and views of a lovely courtyard that embodies Sicilian tradition. Guests can enjoy a rejuvenating peace, surrounded by aromatic plants, orchards, and a garden that supplies the Villa's kitchen. An ancient water storage tank, now transformed into a pool, invites moments of relaxation immersed in nature.

Villa Altair's gastronomic offerings stand out for a rich breakfast featuring local products and the opportunity to partake in tastings of organic wines from Cantine Giglio, born from a love for a territory so rich in history and flavors. The food and wine experiences include rustic dinners prepared with fresh, local ingredients, a true tribute to Sicilian culinary tradition.

Located just 2 km from the historic center of Mazara del Vallo, this establishment is ideal for exploring the cultural heritage of the region. Among ancient statues like the Dancing Satyr, architectural treasures, and fine sandy beaches, Villa Altair represents a strategic starting point for venturing towards natural and historical wonders, including reserves and archaeological sites of inestimable value, such as Selinunte and the Valley of the Temples.

The privileged location, in the heart of western Sicily, allows for the discovery of the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean and unspoiled beaches, perfect for moments of relaxation in the sun or water activities. Villa Altair embodies a stay that combines sun, sea, nature, and culture, promising an unforgettable experience in a land that fascinates and conquers with its warmth and tradition.

A very comfortable and spacious accommodation, in a beautiful building surrounded by vineyards. Excellent and abundant breakfasts. Close to Mazara del Vallo and the magnificent site of Selinonte with the beautiful adjacent beaches. The hosts know how to share their passion for wine that they have been producing for several generations.

A wonderful baglio in a strategic location to visit Mazara and the beautiful waters of Tonnarella. Away from the heat and bustle of the city, we could enjoy the peace and pleasantness of the outdoor spaces and the fantastic pool. The Giglio family, and in particular Mariagrazia, are exceptional hosts who welcomed and pampered us at every moment. We also recommend tasting their exquisite wines to complete the stay with a moment of enological culture of the area.

Very pleasant stay in this Villa Altair just outside Mazara. Mariagrazia welcomed us warmly and explained all the facilities of the property to us, including the lovely pool made available to us. Abundant breakfast with local products. We will definitely come back.

The structure is a typical Sicilian villa well reorganized and modernized, with terracotta, antique pieces, and Sicilian stone that enhance all environments. Noteworthy are the cleanliness and the kindness of Maria Grazia who made us feel immediately welcome and gave us excellent directions for discovering the area! The breakfast, excellent, lets you taste typical Sicilian products. The pool is truly unique! Furthermore, the location of the structure allows you to reach the most beautiful places in the area.

The structure is an '800 baglio, nestled among the vineyards and olive trees of Mazzara, very quiet and therefore perfect for those who want to relax and unwind from the daily routine. If desired, you can spend the evening watching the stars by the pool with a glass of wine (produced by the structure itself: Cantina Giglio). The only flaw was the check-in and initial communication. Those who welcomed us were a bit too hasty and confusing, there was no welcome service (even just a bottle of water) despite the fact that the structure has great potential. The stay was perfect, but I believe that more could be invested in hospitality, in my opinion a bit 'imprecise', and also in the services offered by the structure: the visit to the cellars, the history of the baglio, the tasting of the wines produced, perhaps with some matching platters. Instead, the staff who took care of our stay, the tasting, and the checkout were more than helpful and friendly!

Typical local country structure recently renovated. For dinner, we were guests of the managers in a truly exceptional atmosphere of familiarity and hospitality, in addition to the excellent food cooked in the wood-fired oven of the Villa. We highly recommend this B&B because you will be as enthusiastic about it as we were.
