But most of all, Atelier sul Mare offers the unforgettable experience of sleeping inside art. The art rooms provide to the guest a unique and powerful experience. They are appropriate for an 'inner journey' of meditation. The art is not designed to be displayed to the viewer; it is meant to surround the guest: 'Only after entering and living in a room, the artwork will be complete. The guest's presence and use of the room is an integral part of the artistic creation. Our customers are even encouraged to change a different art-room each night to get the fullest experience.
Atelier sul Mare offers 100 beds, and apart from art rooms, which are true art suite, our standard rooms are wide, comfortable, with flowery balconies facing the sea. It is possible to attend pottery making courses inside the hotel, as well as courses on Italian language, Italian cuisine, on Sicilian wines, horse riding, and going out fishing with local fishermen. Also classical music concerts and art exhibitions are very usual in our hotel. Besides, many ancient art and interesting ruins can be reached in few minutes by car or train.
The Turkish Bath and Sauna are the maximum of the relax that Atelier sul Mare offers to his customers.
Few kilometres from the hotel you can visit the park of Fiumara d’Arte, the biggest Regional museum of contemporary sculptures in Europe. The park, made realized from Antonio Presti, consists of an unusual attempt at exhibiting contemporary sculpture in a kind of open-air museum, that takes advantage of the natural landscape to arrive at a symbiosis of art and nature and provides interested visitors an opportunity of exploring secluded and off-the-beaten-track spots. The monumental sculptures have been realized by international artists: Pietro Consagra, Piero Dorazio, Tano Festa, Hidetoshi Nagasawa, Paolo Schiavocampo, Antonio Di Palma and many others. A very pleasant art walk amidst the Sicilian wild and picturesque nature.
