About
Villa Athena is a luxurious 5-star resort situated at the heart of the Valley of the Temples Archaeological Park, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
With its direct and exclusive entrance, it stands as the only accommodation within this magnificent park. As described by Luigi Pirandello in "The Old and the Young," the villa boasts an unrivaled view of the surrounding ancient temples, purposely placed to enhance its majesty. Dating back to the late 18th century, it serves as both a princely residence and a guardian of the classical ruins that adorn every corner like precious treasures. Just 200 meters from the remarkable Temple of Concordia, known as a masterpiece of Doric art from the 5th century BC, Villa Athena has been a harmonious union of nature, art, and beauty for over 2500 years in the presence of divine deities.
