Sapevamo già che la Sicilia è una bellissima isola ed in effetti ha soddisfatto tutte le nostre aspettative alla grande con posti stupendi e pietanze di alto livello. La casa nella località Plemmirio (zona protetta con un mare bellissimo)dove abbiamo soggiornato è molto carina e dotata di tutti i comfort, inoltre situata proprio a 50 metri dal mare per cui una comodità impagabile. La cosa che ci ha colpiti di più è stata l'ospitalità siciliana racchiusa sopratutto nella proprietaria della casa che ci ha trattato come suoi figli e non ci ha fatto mancare mai nulla. Una bellissima vacanza da ripetere!

We had a fantastic stay in June at Vincenzo’s place. There was all we were looking for: See, silence, Syracuse, sun and sunsets. The historic centre of Syracuse is very nearby, where you can have a coffee on one of the two central squares and check your e-mail. For the see you just cross the road. There are several paths that lead to the see. We stayed in the small apartment, which had everything we needed. However, it’s also possible to rent the whole house. There is plenty of space to be outside. Every evening we returned from a trip back into the silence of the garden and I thought – why did we leave it in the first place? We definitely plan to return!

A five night stay, travelling by hire car (essential). Siracusa not far away, amazing market at Ortigia. Lived mainly on seafood, and enjoyed our independence and the self-catering facilities of the apartment. Comfortable and compact; ideal for two people. Really enjoyed our visit; did lots of driving to many different places, eg: Noto. Found driving ok once I adopted the Sicilian style! Will hopefully be able to return sometime!!
