Philosophy

Founded by Antonio Mascarella in the early 90s, Villa Dafne is now managed by his sons Giuseppe and Vincenzo Mascarella. The primary mission is the same now as it was in the past: to unite Agriculture with Tourism. At Villa Dafne, agriculture is sustainable. It combines technology and tradition and respects the needs of nature, man, plants and animals.

The Bontà di Villa Dafne

Our line of organic products

Villa Dafne has now created the brand “Le Bontà di Villa Dafne” to allow its guests to bring home the same quality and the same tastes they find at the farm.

“Le Bontà di Villa Dafne” is a line of organic products from the Villa Dafne farm. The idea for the project was born naturally from the pleasure of eating healthy delicious foods and knowing not only who produced them but also which methods were used. There is thus a direct encounter between the consumer and the producer, which guarantees genuine, healthy products at a lower price, since we ourselves are the manufacturers.

Villa Dafne has also created a charming shop inside the restaurant where you can buy all the products that have earned the name “Le Bontà di Villa Dafne.”

Come and see our shop in the restaurant at Villa Dafne.

Opening time:

- every Friday from 14:00 to 20:00,

- Saturday from 9:00 to 20:00 (all day)

- Sunday from 9:00 to 18:00 (all day).

Palermo

City of passion, both royal and popular, in predominantly Arab-Norman style – it would take more than a week to see all its wonders!
It can be reached by car or train from Villa Dafne. The trip takes about an hour (72 km) on the Palermo-Agrigento expressway.

Piazza Armerina

Piazza Armerina has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997 thanks to the Villa Romana del Casale.

Piazza Armerina is located in the province of Enna in central Sicily, almost 700 metres above sea level, ensconced between large dense forests of eucalyptus trees.
