About this property
An Oasis of History and Relaxation
- Nestled in the
hills of Mazzarino, the Relais of Torre Favara Company is a place where history and nature blend in perfect harmony. This ancient stone farmhouse, featuring a swimming pool surrounded by greenery, was built in 1866 by the Calì family and has been carefully restored to offer elegant and authentic hospitality in the heart of Sicily.
The rooms, thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail, combine tradition with modern comfort, featuring refined furnishings inspired by local style. Each room is equipped with fine linens, air conditioning, a safe, and complimentary toiletries—everything you need for a truly relaxing stay.
At Relais Palmento 18.66, time slows down, wrapping you in an intimate and enchanting atmosphere. Amid Mediterranean scents and Sicilian traditions, you'll enjoy an authentic experience filled with peaceful and unforgettable moments.
