Cas’almare, Favignana, Italy
Located on a small butterfly shaped island off the West Coast of Sicily is Cas’almare. A small, stylish boutique hotel with what has to be the best location on the island of Favignana. The intimate hotel—just five guest rooms, a breakfast room, and a central living area awash in soothing seaside colors—is furnished in chic Euro fashion. The property overlooks ancient Roman queries and has its own private beach.
At night the owner will serve you aperitifs consisting of local wines, homemade prestos, and delicious nuts while you enjoy the warm breeze and watch the boats travel back to the main Island of Sicily. Contemplate the turquoise Mediterranean from a teak table at the adjoining beach club, then take to the waters on one of the hotel’s two boats.
Best Spot to Soak All Day: Room No. 4’s freestanding bathtub, perfectly positioned in front of the window to catch the ocean breeze.
