Situated in front of the sea, just 500 metres from the historical centre of Mazara del Vallo and embarkation for the magnificent Egadi Islands, Pantelleria and Tunisia, the very recent “Hotel Mahara” has been created out of an ancient 18th century wine-making building belonging the English Hopps family.

The refined and cultured surroundings, the relaxing atmosphere in the Wine Bar – for aperitifs and light lunches – and in the Ghibli Restaurant, where excellent traditional Sicilian cuisine (based on the freshness of the renowned Mazara fish) can be savoured in the cool of the cloister, all make this the perfect destination for your vacation. You can also taste couscous and other dishes from this special cuisine which offers dishes with an Arab influence together with Italian ones.

Style and elegance also reign in the Auditorium, in the meeting salons and in the 77 bedrooms, the majority with sea view and terrace, and all with the most modern comforts, such as broadband internet connection.

The 4 large suites in a quiet position also have hydro-massage tubs. Outside is the beautiful swimming pool and the beach is just a few minutes from the hotel, in quiet and friendly surroundings (free shuttle-bus service).
Furthermore, you can choose from an endless list of entertainment: At the centre of one of the most important archaeological basins in Europe (with the fantastic sites of Selinunte, Segesta and Mozia), a few kilometers from Marsala and Erice, from the Salt and Wine Routes with gastronomic-wine tours, the Mahara Hotel is the ideal place to begin from in the discovery of splendid western Sicily.

Besides all this, its position and tradition have made the city an important destination for lovers of fishing (also deep-sea fishing), kite surfing and underwater fishing. The hotel offers you a wide range of guided naturalistic and cultural excursions, sailing boat trips, diving, big game fishing and much more…
