Tenuta Altera – Where Silence Reveals the Essential

Nestled in one of the most captivating settings on the island of Pantelleria, in the hamlet of Scauri, just a short stroll from its picturesque harbour yet discreetly tucked into a private and harmonious landscape, lies Tenuta Altera: an exclusive estate where contemporary architecture, art and nature coexist in perfect harmony.

This remarkable residence — its name evoking distinction and uniqueness — unfolds as a carefully conceived series of spaces designed to offer comfort, beauty, and silence, in full respect of Pantelleria’s most authentic spirit.

The Main House

The design is linear, essential, yet deeply refined.
The kitchen, spacious, light-filled and fully equipped, stands at the heart of the home: a convivial space for those who love Sicilian cuisine, complemented by an intimate and welcoming dining area.

The living areas, opening onto sea views, provide evocative glimpses of the landscape and convey a deep sense of calm, enhanced by a refined and understated décor.

Upstairs, the master bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe and a stylish en-suite bathroom – a true retreat of elegance and comfort.
A second bedroom, an additional bathroom, and a study ideal for reading or working complete the upper floor.

The Soul of the Property: the Dammuso Descending to the lower level reveals the emotional core of the estate: a traditional dammuso, reimagined in a contemporary key and transformed into a spacious artistic salon, enriched with curated artworks and centred around a striking corten steel fireplace. Here, the atmosphere becomes more intimate, more profound — a space where art becomes part of daily life.

The Guest House in the Garden

Tucked away amidst the scents and colours of a lush Mediterranean garden, the guest house hosts two independent bedrooms, ideal for offering friends or guests complete privacy. A quiet haven where nature and architecture meet with grace and discretion.

The Pool and Gardens

Set apart from the main house, the pool boasts a minimalist and elegant design, enhancing rather than competing with the natural surroundings. Shielded from view, it offers a serene experience of privacy and peace, reminiscent of Pantelleria’s historic walled gardens, with their dry-stone walls, Mediterranean plants and timeless charm.

Outdoor Living

Panoramic terraces, open-air lounges, dining spaces and a small garden bar are gracefully laid out along stone paths that wind through the garden, leading to the main dammuso. Every corner is thoughtfully designed to celebrate outdoor living with harmony and simplicity — a perfect balance between function and beauty.

Tenuta Altera is more than a villa: it is a sanctuary for the soul. A masterpiece of balance, where luxury, simplicity and authentic beauty come together. A place to rediscover yourself, in style.
