The villa was discovered in the early twentieth century. Located on the beach of Punta Piccola, a few kilometers from the town of Realmonte and the Scala dei Turchi, the building is made around all'impluvium, located in the central courtyard adorned with columns. Around articulate the various rooms, some with a waterproof floor with inlaid marble, others with polychrome mosaics depicting scenes and sea gods. The spa complex within the villa testifies to the wealthy economic status of its owners.
