pantelleria dammusi

Ours is one of the finest properties on the island. On the south-west coast (between Pantelleria and Scauri), it comprises 4 hectares of pine grove, with local-style (“pantesco”) gardens and trees and shrubs of all kinds.

The park, which reflects 34 years of dedication to the island's wildlife and biodiversity, has recently become a nesting site for laughing doves (for the first time in Europe) and other exotic bird species. A magical atmosphere enfolds our dammusi in a special serenity.

Lulled by the surrounding greenery and the sound of the sea, our guests absorb the very essence of the island while enjoying a holiday that will restore both mind and body.

We have a freshwater swimming pool, and there is also a natural pool, filled by the waves, among the rocks on the beach. On one side, the property is bounded by the perimeter road; on the other, it has a sea frontage of approximately 500 feet / 150 metres, with areas where you can relax in total privacy, shady nooks and freshwater showers.

Although the shore is wild and rocky, like most of Pantelleria's coastline, the gently sloping rocks on this stretch make it easier to get into the water.The property is not easily accessible to outsiders, with the result that our guests enjoy a great deal of privacy, even in August. Works by artists of different nationalities help to give the property a unique feel.

From mid-June to the end of September, the price includes a buffet breakfast featuring home-baked products and many of our own fruits and vegetables. Dinners can be organised by request, as well as boat tours of the island, with or without a barbequed fish meal. Water is supplied from storage tanks; each group of houses has its own tank.We have generators which will start up automatically in the event of cuts in the normal power supply (which are not infrequent).
