Around Villa Byblos

The Living List

Mastita · Jbeil — between the mountains and the sea

Jbeil–Mastita coast plate

Oraya's current area guide — openings change with the seasons; this list stays fresh. Scan-friendly, kept up to date, and always a message away from a personal recommendation.

Worth the drive

~10 min

Byblos Castle

The Crusader castle above one of the world's oldest harbours. Go late afternoon, for the light.

~10 min

The Old Souk

Stone lanes, small ateliers, evening cafés — unhurried, exactly as it should be.

~12 min

Harbour & beaches

The fishing port, the seafront walk, and swims — sandy or rocky — either side of town.

Tables we recommend

Seafood on the harbour, Lebanese and mezze in the Old Souk, breakfast on the seafront — Oraya can share the latest recommendations before your stay. Message the concierge and we'll point you to what's open, what's good, and what suits the evening.

Practical & nearby

Daily basics and ice from the Mastita mini-market (5 min), manakish from the morning oven (5 min), pharmacies and banks in Jbeil (8 min), fuel on the Jbeil highway. Ask Oraya for the nearest options any time.
