Description The Picture of Life: Alcamo

Bright and sunny, this cheerful holiday home is a superb base in the district of Palermo. It’s close to Balestrate and is just 500 metres from a white-sand beach. You’ll have sea views to admire from the garden and the terrace, when you’re dining alfresco or sipping vino in the shade. The private swimming pool feels like a haven on hot days, especially given its setting amid shrubs and flowers – you can really unwind here. The stairs mean that it won’t be suitable for everyone, and the air conditioning isn’t in every room – it can get warm during the summer months.

Home truths:
*This home is spread over two floors so may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.
*The swimming pool is open from May-October.
*The air conditioning is only available in the living room, corridor and master bedroom.
