Epoque Hotels Announces New Hotel Casa Favonio

May 6, 2011 - PRLog -- The boutique hotel Collection welcomes its new Sicily hotel
Epoque Hotels is happy to announce its new boutique hotel Member, Casa Favonio. Casa Favonio, is located in the heart of a nature reserve, at Monte Santa Caterina's feet, and is hidden in a glorious 5 hectares property planted with old olive trees in Favignana, in the Egadi islands. The nearest beach is at less than 1 kilometer.  Close enough to town to pop in for a meal; far enough away that you get a real feel of seclusion. Design-wise it's a blend of natural shades of stone and sand offset by lashings of cool white - discreet but chic.
Explore beaches, grottos and volcanic caves; zip around the islands in our speedboat; sit under shady palms and pines to read. this is somewhere you'll escape the outside world.  Three standard doubles, three deluxe double and a superior double make up the accommodation at Casa Favonio.
The 3 Standard Rooms are set on the ground floor, with views over the garden. Each has a private courtyard area (with deckchairs, bath towels, bath robes, air conditioning, security box and satellite TV). The Deluxe and Superior Rooms are up on the first floor, with big private terraces looking out across the island; both are perfectly placed to watch the sun set. Inside, they are bigger than the standard rooms, with the added charm of 4-poster beds. The Superior Room has 2 terraces, one with an outdoor plunge pool.  
Favignana is the largest of the Egadi islands, which lie just off the northwest of Sicily. It's a 20-minute hop on the hydrofoil (there are regular services year round) or 45 minutes on the car ferry from Trapani.
