Villa Igiea, a Rocco Forte Hotel
This beautifully restored Art Nouveau, city-seaside palace overlooking the Bay of Palermo blends 19th-century charm with contemporary Sicilian flair









Sheltered under the Rocco Forte umbrella, this seaside-meets-city sanctuary located in a 19th-century palazzo at the foot of Mount Pellegrino and the Gulf of Palermo harnesses the island’s chaotic spirit to present an array of rooms and suites (all designed by Olga Polizzi) that blend antique period features with a chic Sicilian flair – never straying from Palermo’s coastal glamour. So, sequester yourself in the villa’s verdant surroundings overlooking the azure waters and embrace the cultural crossroads amid a picture-perfect setting.
