Join us for a Sicilian summer reset in sunny September! This 18th century Italian farmhouse is only steps away from the Mediterranean sea and abundant with breathtaking views of the organic gardens and nearby vineyards. Take a boat to the nearby islands,  explore the coast line by bike, or visit ancient cities Marsala, Trapani, Erice and many more! Indulge in Sicilian traditional cuisine with produce harvested from the property. Deepen your practice and relish in all that Sicily has to offer. 

Salinara is a charming historic 18th century farmhouse immersed in nature along with the blue Mediterranean sea, surrounded by antique salt pans, vineyards, and olive groves. All the rooms exude a Mediterranean atmosphere, a journey through the sensations and colours of Sicily. The interior has been restored with local natural materials, and is furnished in traditional Sicilian country style. 

All rooms have a private entrance and can be single (one person per room), shared double (two people with two singles or a double bed), shared triple (three people with a double and single or three single beds), or a shared quad (four people with two doubles or four singles). Please let us know if you'd like to share a bed when you book! Each room includes a private or shared kitchen or kitchenette and an en suite bathroom. 

Fly into Palermo. Car rentals are encouraged to explore during the day. We will create a google doc to help arrange car sharing. Plan to arrive Saturday, September 31st at 5p (our first practice will begin at 6:00p). Our final practice will take place on Saturday, September 7th, followed by a farewell breakfast.
