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.

Super clean, super location , super service… loved being there!. They were also able to accommodate several rooms for us on short notice. Would definitely go back here. Thank you!

We were a group of 10 people looking for new accommodation as previous one was a scam. Three of us shared a big room with a balcony, facing the side of the property. It was off season and Roberto was just getting ready to open Relais officially. It's not a 5star place, but it was cozy and Roberto was super nice: he adjusted our breakfast to include more savoury options, opened a bottle of champagne for us all to celebrate, gave us tips of where to go dine in Marsalla and arranged transportation. I loved sipping coffee facing the sea and the sunsets are just stunning. Within walking distance from the kitespot it was just perfect for our group. Thank you Roberto for such a warm welcome and for the little Italian lessons.

Francesco was a very warming and kind host. He welcomed me at the door and explained kindly all details and everything about the room. Very cosy, highly cleaned and with all , waters in the fridge, air conditioning and so on. Also there was a view from the balcony looking on to Palermo. Thank you very much

Welcome to the place where the love for our land, Sicily, bloomed and became an exclusive tourist offer: welcome to Terra dei Limoni, totally surrounded by the citrus fruit of Sicily. The smell of orange and lemon blossom embraces the Agritourism, provided with all the amenities for an enjoyable stay. Here you can enjoy the sun, the sea and the natural and artistic sights of Eastern Sicily. The staff is always prepared to listen to any request…as the Aladdin’s lamp in which the genie is represented by owners and employees always ready to satisfy any desire.
It’s a glorified garden shed, it’s any kind of hotel/motel room. Was told the teepee room was sealed and comfortable. It is not sealed (plant is literally growing in from outside), light is pouring in from the door, and it takes two adults to shut the door because it doesn’t fit the frame. Under the covers we found both a lizard and a spider. Also, the mattress is very uncomfortable. It’s 5 AM. I’m still awake. HARD PASS.

The location of the B&B is ideal being half way between the excellent beach and the old town and harbour. We arrived late due to problems with the train system, we phoned the landlady when we arrived and she attended within minutes to help us settle in.She was very welcoming and helpful. We booked breakfast for the first morning and it was delicious so ate there every morning. Freshly home baked cakes were a bonus. The room was spacious and very clean and comfortable with extremely effective air conditioning at no extra charge. There is a fully equipped kitchen on the top floor for everyone to use which worked very well. Push bikes and beach umbrellas were available free of charge during our stay.Overall an excellent few days. Thanks Gabrielle.

Via Cavour 32 was a real surprise with the size of the room and bathroom, as it is rare to find this size in the small historical cities like Ortigia. It is one of the most comfortable and spacious rooms (room nr. 3) I've stayed in, and my absolute recommendations for other travelers as the property is also very centrally located, just few steps of both Piazza Archimede and Piazza Duomo. Staff is quick and polite, and the idea to bring the breakfast in the room is fantastic, besides you can choose from the list what you want to order (brownies are a must!). Bed is big and super comfortable! The only minus is a bit of noise from the outside and maybe some restaurant/property under the rooms, but however the comfort compensates everything. Not sure how are the prices in the higher season, but now is a great value for money. My sincere recommendations.

A stylish B&B with well equipped rooms which is situated in a safe well heeled area close to nice restaurants. Some of the main historical sites in walking distance. The Sicilian breakfast was plentiful with very good coffee. Staff are very welcoming and helpful. I would recommend.

I spent my birthday weekend in the gorgeous Deluxe Junior suite! Communication prior and during the stay was amazing, Davide and Francesco were great hosts! This is not a hotel or B&B in a traditional sense, most things are managed remotely and hosts give you a lot of privacy! The room was excellent, free bottle of Prosecco upon arrival! My favourite thing was the bed! SUPER COMFY! The shower and hot tub were incredible, especially after a long day of exploring the city! Be mindful of the water levels and side pumps, if over-flowing, the water will spill onto the floor and set off the flood alarm system!!! Lesson learned lol. Breakfast was average but worth it for the price of the suite! The area is so close to the main train station, all attractions are within 15min walk, the area might be questionable for some but I liked the vibe - filled with working-class locals :) I even received a gift as I checked out! Overall, I highly recommend this accommodation!

The Dimora Edel is set in an early‘900 historic building and it is has been completely renovated. Every room features air conditioning, a deluxe Smart TV with soundbar, a mini-safe, a mini-fridge bar. A wooden floor terrace is furnished with tables and a barbecue available for guests’ use. In the garden two Jacuzzi hot tubs surrounded by four seats grant you an amazing view on the valley
My wife and I made our reservation through Booking.com, this was for a suite with balcony, breakfast included. We arrived for our 3 night stay late afternoon to be met by the owner/manager? who checked us in. We were informed that breakfast was not being offered in the hotel and we were given vouchers for a cafe downtown in Modica ! 1. Two routes to the cafe, 1.5km round trip by road, or 1.4 km using 68 steps down to the main road, and then 68 steps back up on the return journey !. Walking was the only solution with parking being an impossibility 2. At the cafe I was told the voucher had a value of €5, that gave me an orange juice, coffee and croissant - no jam. 3. Through the tourist board office we attempted to contact the hotel, the person who checked us in had disappeared, never to remerge during our entire stay, never anybody at reception. 4. Balcony, yes, but just capable in letting a person stand 5. TV, no International channels 6. An ancient bed that creaked at the slightest movement 7 .Hospitality tray but with no milk provided 8. Usually we would expect a settee or comfortable chair in a suite, we had a table and 4 chairs 9. Terraced garden on several levels, only seating metal chairs 10. Street parking impossible, free parking 450 metres away It is a travesty to call this a luxury hotel Be warned
