Acqua Pia Spa Opens in Sicily

Sicily is indeed a hidden travel gem, and few people venture so far south from Rome. But if you have the time to spare, visit this island that is famous for its granitas, cannolis and incredible foccacia and fish.

A brand new thermal spa and spa village just opened its doors in the small town of Montevago in Sicily (85 km from Palermo). According to an ancient legend, a young shepherd and shepherdess came down a slope and discovered a holy spring. Health giving thermal waters spouted and made this land fertile, and today the hot spring waters can be found in Spa Acqua Pia.

A dip in these waters can push the boundaries of your life span; its curative powers are remarkable. The brand new spa village is country style and is a real gem in every way, from its 26 air-conditioned rooms, Sicilian style apartments and woods nearby in which to take leisurely strolls.

For hard core campers, there is a fragrant citrus orchard camp site.

Treatments at the spa tap the thermal waters' properties and include inhaling and aerosol therapies, mud treatments, hydromassage, Evian showers, Turkish baths and facials among several others.
