Delightful detached villa with large garden in Valdesi

Mondello is undoubtedly famous and renowned for its beach, considered a true gem both by Sicilians and by the countless tourists who, during the summer season (extended until October/November thanks to the mild climate), crowd its magical sand. The features that make Mondello’s beach unique and inimitable are undoubtedly the pure white color of the sand, the shallow seabed, the calm waters, and also the remarkable setting that has developed around these natural wonders: the nightlife that welcomes large crowds, luxury, the magical bustle, special fun, and the unique spectacle of sunset—a sunbath in crystal-clear waters. But it is not only the beach, which certainly plays the area’s main attraction, that makes Mondello unique; in fact, this locality is characterized by numerous Liberty-style villas, known as the highest expression of Art Nouveau in Italy. The Liberty-style villas define the area’s architecture, making it an important landmark in the history of international modernism. These buildings (many by the renowned architect Ernesto Basile) are among the finest examples of Art Nouveau architecture in Italy and Europe. Mondello has many accommodation facilities, numerous yacht clubs and exclusive clubs, restaurants, shops, a small marina, and an old bathing establishment, one of the city’s symbolic monuments. In summer, various services are offered, focused, for example, on renting cabins or subscriptions to access private sections of the beach.
