The best available Resorts to stay near Sicily
A visit to Sicily is truly a feast for all senses. The Mediterranean island is a foodie’s paradise, offering rustic fare that makes the most of local bounty. Crispy/creamy arancini – fried balls of rice filled with cheese and sauce – are mouthfuls of heaven. The Sicilian sweet tooth has manifested in some of the world’s finest desserts, like icy granita and sinful cannoli. Give your stomach a quick break and visually devour the Baroque architecture of Catania or the awesome holy monuments of Agrigento.

1. Algila Ortigia Charme Hotel
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2163 reviews
Hotel is located in an exquisite ancient building on the waterfront of Ortigia, the historic centre of Syracuse. Giving onto the ancient "Mastra Rua," where the Siracusan nobility resided from the 14th century, the hotel is a starting point for cultural itineraries. Its recent restoration maintains the original structure made of three buildings, contributing to its dynamic layout. Rooms are furnished differently with antique furniture, four-poster beds and refined interior decoration with distinctive Sicilian touches and Mediterranean features such as colorful bathrooms tiles.
Repeat visit just as good as the first
Reviewed By ArmonkThis was our second stay here. We had a very fine stay here 3 years ago, before covid, and were delighted to return. While absolutely everything was fine, I wish to mention especially the breakfast and the coffee. Both were the best we had during our trip in Sicily.

A wonderful holiday
Reviewed By RMH613We stayed in this truly exquisite resort earlier this month. We really appreciated the personalised welcome upon arrival with a glass of prosecco and intro to the resort with a tour to our room. The grounds are lovingly manicured and picture perfect. Our villetta was also perfectly maintained and the views from the terrace, beautiful. We sampled all of the restaurants, each of which provided a great standard and variety of food. During the day the riva bar by the sea is a must and at sunset, the Palazzo terrace restaurant is delightful (you need to book for the latter). The staff genuinely seem to love their jobs and are so friendly and helpful. The GO’s put on a great show in the evening, what a talented bunch! We saw a Bridgerton themed performance and a Queen tribute act while there. There is a dress code in the eve that is recommended which we initially wondered how many people would actually adhere to - it turned out to be quite fun with most people joining in, though it’s not overly serious. There is a helpful path just outside the entrance to the resort which leads you straight down some steps and along the beach promenade to Cefalu town (est 20-30 min walk)- definitely worth a trip. Also, if you just need a few essentials, there’s a pretty decent supermarket just over the road from the resort. I read a few reviews highlighting that this is a very French resort, exercise classes in French, language spoken in restaurant etc. Indeed it is - as Brits we were one of very few non French guests, which, given our French is not fluent, did make it a little challenging for us to understand a few things at times. But, that’s our fault for not speaking another language fluently! It did mean we had to brush up a bit on that. Thank you very much to the team at Club Med Cefalu for a lovely holiday.

Lovely but room for improvement - 3½ stars rating
Reviewed By kirstym499We booked this as a family holiday through TUI and some of the photos - especially of the pool area and gym - are incorrect/ misleading. The pool areas are lovely though, but the photos aren't correct (there's no island in the middle of the pool for example). Also - the restaurant photos are taken of the paid restaurant, not the basic buffet restaurant which is where you go if you're all inclusive, as we were. I wouldn't rate it more than a 3. We did think most of the food was lovely though - very fresh and particularly italian - considering the huge amount of guests they had to cater for, it was very well run kitchen and staff were very helpful around the dining areas! You did have to get there close to opening times to get all the good food though, we went late one lunch and there was alot that wasn't available. Most of the staff were lovely and friendly although most can't speak much english so just be aware of that if you're only english speaking. We did try some basic italian greetings etc but not very successfully! One of the staff around the pool was particularly grumpy and quite rude to alot of guests - and couldn't speak any english at all but would come over to us and tell us off (we didn't realise as soon as we finished any drinks that we had to go and throw our plastic cups away straight away - sometimes we hadn't even finished them and he was over telling us off) - he got very stressed if anyone tried to move sunbeds together (bigger families etc) Don't take your gym gear, the gym was truly awful - run down, old equipment and some of it didn't work (the one treadmill they had didn't work!) - also only opens at 10am - pointless if you want a workout before breakfast! Rooms were basic and clean with good airconditioning and cleaned daily.

Quality Resort with Private Facility at Beautiful Beach of Sampieri
Reviewed By Rahel LWe chose the spot by its location close to a wonderful sandy beach at Sampieri. Efficient Cart transportation every 15 minutes from the resort to the beach. Private bar and free beach activities. Super friendly staff. Spacious rooms. Well maintained. 2x room service per day. Quite good food quality for a buffet. Negatives: air conditioning lacking cooling power. Around the clock music at the busy but very spacious pool.

Sometimes you do find perfection
Reviewed By narvellukI have never been a fan of glitzy properties self consciously trying to take care of a guest. And so I was thrilled to find Baglio Oneto where every bit of service seemed old school in the way only the Italians can do it. It comes from an innate pride in their food, country, wine, and why not? The peninsula is blessed, kissed by the sun since ancient times and all the arts flourish. Here my husband and I found that old style property where the dining room is still run by an attentive maitre d', fleets of sub waiters all supporting a wonderful kitchen producing the best food with the fresh ingredients on their doorstep. Every one at Baglio was eager to share their enthusiasm for Sicily with us. Be it the desk clerk who patiently handled my request for the perfect view, the bartender who produced a great drink nightly, the lovely pool girl who eagerly wanted to know our itinerary and the most memorable: the waiter who seeing me slightly shiver quietly and ever so gently urged his aide to produce a wrap for me. And so a table cloth arrived without my even asking as a shawl against the slight night chill of an early May evening. That is real professionalism and classy training. So yes, Baglio Oneto has it all as far as I am concerned all against the backdrop of a lovely villa and tower. Don't come here looking for bread making classes, yoga, or any other chi chi nouvelle experience. This is Italy standing still, taking a breath and hoping you can settle in, turn off your phone, put away your computer and savour i sapori. Grazie miller per una vacanza bellissima. I can't wait to return and enjoy the glorious views while I take a breath myself.

Lovely hotel for our short break
Reviewed By SamiTinkGreat hotel for our 3 day trip. Staff were very helpful and gave us some good recommendations for places for dinner. Room was a good size, well presented and we had a sea view with a balcony. Breakfast was very nice. On the first night we enjoyed a drink in the roof top bar and on the second night we dined at the roof top restaurant. The food was very good, the staff were very informative and helpful when navigating the menu which was in Italian and advised what i could have while pregnant.
