Overview
The Ancient Saracen Tower is a restored ancient tower located in a beautiful private park of pines and eucalyptuses 50 meters from the sea.

The tower has a splendid 360-degree view of the Gulf of Policastro and Mount Bulgheria.
 
 At sunset the cliff of the gulf turns pink and, in the distance, the white Christ of Maratea is outlined.
 
Scario is a seaside village of tourist interest halfway between Maratea and Palinuro. There are many restaurants and cafes where you can sit at and enjoy the views of the sea.

  From the marina a boat service equipped with frequent departures allows you to reach the bays along the coast to Punta Infreschi.

 There’s lots of garden space with an outdoor kitchen and a barbecue.  You  could have parties or just hang out in the evening.

There is a path across the street to go to the beach.
 
 The grounds are incredible,  a magical  place to have an intimate wedding. On the top terrace we could have the ceremony and in the garden patio we could have the reception dinner and after dinner party..............it is a stunning venue!

Area Info
Located in Italy's last undiscovered, unspoiled area - literally stunning -  Coast of Maratea & The Cilento National Park. 

Traveler Magazine says "Maratea is Heaven - It's The Amalfi Without The Crowds.... Italy's Best Kept Secret".

 It is just to the south of the Amalfi coast; however, much easier, cheaper, and faster to get to - excellent high-speed road (A3) and rail service from Naples  (many airlines) and Lamezia Terme (Ryan Air & Alitalia).
