Unveiling Sumptuous Comfort
That Hotel Villa Athena is an imposing residence and a superb hotel in the grand manner is quite beyond doubt. Its dignified stance and traditional regional architecture means it is quite at home in the Archaeological Park of the Valley of the Temples, which UNESCO has declared a World heritage site.
Make the Villa Athena part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Italy and you will also feel completely at home. You will be welcomed to sumptuous luxury by a friendly, obliging staff and you will be staying within a couple of hundred metres of the Temple of Concordia – a Doric masterpiece that dates back to the 5th century BC. So you have the perfect base to explore ancient Sicilian civilisation – amidst Saracen olive groves and centuries-old palms.

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
