[more]OPEN ALL YEAR
The "Nido del Pellegrino" is located on the Favignana’s Grosso coastline, made of about 7 ha. of ground dropping to the sea and obtained restoring a former military structure, dating back to World War II, and intended for people searching a relaxing and reserved haven: a Mediterranean oasis, characterised by its scents and quiet. Those who appreciate a simple style without abandoning refined settings will enjoy the charm of this place, which the inhabitants call "the most beautiful place in Favignana" and when the Guest looks from the veranda at the breath-taking Mediterranean Sea and its sunsets, he cannot help sharing such opinion.
The environment inspired our architects to select furnishings and trimmings and natural materials such as whitened durmast, stone, typical majolica tiles, natural cotton fabric and refined essences which have been combined with technology and comfort.
The Inn features ten ground floor apartments of three different typologies in two separated buildings, all equipped with cooking facilities with every necessary utensil. Every lodging has a private yard and a verandah furnished for outdoor meals.
A third building has been designed for the hardest to please: a villa with two independent luxury bedrooms, each with a furnished private terrace, on the top of the promontory where to sip a glass of chilly wine admiring the sun setting behind the island of "Marettimo". Romantic nests for those seeking for total relax and special cuddling, chromatic-therapy showers, freestone cutting insertions and mosaics. A third room, independent, to be used as a living and kitchen for the other two rooms, with stone walls and a bathroom directly dug in the stone.
SERVICE:
All apartments and villa have:
air conditioning, intercom, satellite plasma TV and pay-per-view, safe, hair drier, maid service with change of towels and bed linen.
Available at guests' disposition: fax service, wi-fi, private parking areas, porter and night watchman.
However, together with all the comforts provided, nature plays the actual main character. The naming “Nido del Pellegrino" has not been a casual choice: the Traveller and the Falcon. Sure, here the peregrine falcon is the unquestioned lord and master of the sky; there are many seagulls, but falcons are the native mountain dwellers and lords of the sky.
Instead, on the ground there is a great flourishing of Mediterranean endemic flora: garlic to rocket, asparagus to caper, prickly pears, wild fennel, carobs, dwarf palm trees, olive trees, and the like… all natural and wild, scattered in the coastline area and clinging through the grooves of the sea-touched rocks.
In his stroll towards the sea the Guest passes through long forgotten scents, astounding colours, seagulls on the wing and swirling falcons, natural terraces and rocks perched above the sea. All these in the secluded area, protected from curious or indiscreet glances. Some platforms and a lineup have been designed to ease bathing and diving from the stones.
Great importance is due to the marine reserve of the Egadi, whose grounds have so different and peculiar features as to be defined unique in their kind. Countless different species of pelagic and resident fishes, shellfish and molluscs, invertebrates and madrepores have their ideal habitat in this corner of sea. Scuba diving lovers will personally verify with their diving-mask and flippers that the Egadi archipelago has nothing to envy to the most renowned tropical seas. At any time of the year, in any weather, scuba divers can dive both by the coastline and in the open sea, especially at the Secca del Toro (Bull’s shallows), a well-known and requested destination among the frequent visitors. Despite being available to everybody - the sea in the Egadi Archipelago is not "easy" as it is quite unpredictable and facing it without proper knowledgemight be risky.
Therefore, the “Nido del Pellegrino” management entrusted all scuba diving activities to the Scuba Diving Centre "Progetto Atlantide" ("Atlantis Project"), which has been working on the Island more than 20 years and is based on the Porticciolo di Punta Longa (Punta Longa Port), close to the sea and less than a kilometre away from the “Nido del Pellegrino”.
