We arrived about 1am after a long-delayed flight and the night porter greeted us with a very warm welcome (he doesn't speak a lot of English and we only speak a little Italian - but personality speaks volumes) and he man-handled both our cases to our room with a smile. Great start. The room ("Superior", Room 10 I think) was a decent size and the bed was very comfortable (though the pillows are a little on the hard side). Bathroom was large, clean and well equipped. Met the reception staff at breakfast and they were great - very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was fairly basic but satisfying - home-made flans (delicious), eggs of your choice, yogurt, fruits, continental choices, breads, pastries, cakes etc - and their own, home-made jams that are superb (and available to buy). Ate dinner in their restaurant every night (3 in all) and the food was fantastic and reasonably priced. (Great jazz music played every night really adds to the ambience.) The whole site is surrounded by olive trees, citrus trees and vines - it's very quiet and peaceful. The 'road' immediately approaching the site is a bit of a track and I'm glad I was in a hire car and not testing the suspension of my own car - but I have to say it added to the feeling of a bit of remoteness that was part of the charm of the whole area. Staff were great ambassadors for the area and the whole ethos behind the hotel - one of local produce, sustainability, no pesticides, zero food miles and so on. The pool is a little basic - not very deep so well suited to younger children - but a welcome oasis in the heat of a Sicilian summer. We loved every minute of our tranquil stay there and wouldn't hesitate to return.
