Food & Tradition

The Principe is a place outside of the ordinary, where the dinners cooked by the mum chef Silvana are convivial, the juices are freshly pressed, and you can feel at home in relaxing luxury lounges areas.

A new way of living, cooking, eating and, mostly, where to enjoy life to the fullest. Together. Welcome home.

EVENING OUR FAMILY

Our Family

When they ask us why we started the Principe di Salina, we stop and laugh. Because the truth is we have no clue how this random idea came to our mind in 2016. 

Everything began an unusual grey sky day in Salina, in February, under the rain. We all had international career-driven lives but a common dream: create a home where to welcome everyone in Salina.

FOOD & TRADITION MORNING

Morning

Mornings at Principe begin slowly, we heat the coffee machine and play our favourite "Buongiorno" playlist.

Freshly baked sourdough bread perfume all over our main house, Sicilian brioche and a list of à la carte savoury & sweet breakfast options for you to indulge in.

OUR FAMILY DAY TIME

Day Time

Lay on the comfy pool bed, and grab a fresh-squeezed juice. Or a cocktail.

Our pool area provides the perfect space to fully let go and relax. Enjoy the water, the sun, and be close enough to refill your Aperol spritz while ordering a lunch bowl. Pure bliss.

MORNING EVENING

Evening

Feast on fresh, local island ingredients turned into sumptuous Sicilian dishes created by our wonderful chef. Fill your glass with one of our recommended Sicilian wines.

At Principe, we believe there’s nothing quite like family-style dinners with good food, filled glasses and nice conversation. We'll pass with the Limoncello.
