Salinara is located on the unspoiled west coast of Sicily, about one hour drive from Palermo International Airport and just 15 minutes drive from Trapani Airport.
Salinara is nestled in a unique location among working farms and yet within minutes of the Mediterranean Sea, where you will discover one of the largest Natural Marine Reserves in Europe.
Full of extraordinary charm and natural beauty, Salinara allows guests to relax, unwind, and let body and soul regenerate through contact with the surrounding landscapes.
During your retreat you will be served home-made Sicilian cuisine, prepared with fresh seasonal vegetables that come from the farm, organic vegetable garden, seasonal fruits, fresh eggs, and freshly baked breads and cakes.
