This Sea Ranch is a villa by the sea in a splendid Italian island located between Sicily and the African shore. The exotic name comes from
the legend that, in the year 220 B.C., Hannibal, his elephant, and a small contingent of soldiers, established here their headquarter. The villa includes a former winery and three small stone buildings, topped by sensuous white domes, and clustered around an internal piazza.
The House if the Elephant features seven bedrooms, five baths, one large kitchen, and several terraces and patio-gardens, fully furnished and equipped to cook, dine, read, paint or relax in the hammocks.
Given the fact that the villa includes three separate residences, it can accommodate from 2 to 14 guests.
The House is strategically located between "Cala Tramontana" and "Cala Levante", two of the most attractive bays on the island, and within walking distance from "The Elephant Arch", some of Pantelleria's best locations
for swimming, scuba diving, fishing or sailing.
The House of the Elephant is a special place created over 40 years by an Italian architect headquartered in New York City. It features a texture of stones, plants and flowers, articulated into a sequence of buildings and patios, animated by the play of the sunlight and the whistle of the sea breeze. The warehouse, originally a winery, was the only existing building on the site. The other buildings and patios were joyfully built over the years with volcanic stones found on the ground. Today, the house's guests enjoy the comfort of a sophisticated residence in a unique environment where man-made architecture and natural elements uniquely blend to convey the experience of the permanence of the stones, the healing powers of the winds and sea waves, the earthiness of the primitive landscape, the mystery of the underground volcanic turbulence and the magic of the hundreds of falling stars in the midsummer night sky.
