Agriturismo Il Drago

This is a lovely place to stay if you want to see the countryside of Sicily and eat locally- grown food beautifully prepared. The staff are attentive and friendly - being able to speak a little Italian helps, the rooms a good size. Nice pool and look out for the donkeys!

Elegance, friendliness, abundant beauty, serenity, peacefulness, caring, farm to table, organic, respect, welcoming, attention to detail, clean, family...this for us was a 5* experience. We were welcomed with joy & smiles. We were cared for as if we were family. The drive to this beautiful place is wonderful, surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, rolling hills, peace & quiet. Serene, natural elegance. The room was very comfortable, the pool is fantastic, the views are breathtaking, the silence is palpable. We were blown away by the heart of Signor Filippo & his wife, the friendly welcome by Salvo, the vibrancy of Samu who took care of our evening in the restaurant & the sincerity of Carlo the chef who so thoughtfully created vegan dishes for me & delicious local dishes for my husband. We were so touched by our experience here. It's a little corner of paradise. We'd definitely stay again & highly recommend staying in the hotel or bringing your camper & staying in the fully equipped grounds. A very special place, cared for by a very special group of people. Grazie tutti Vikki & Roberto :-)

We went off season (well late May for the Italians is off season) o no-one there but fully staffed and nothing too much trouble. The buildings are beautifully designed, spotless and finished to the highest level. Now picture this with adjacent pools, acres of agricultural land (incusing a Walnut orchard), livestock, a zoo, a river valley, hills ... I like an early morning walk and clocked 10km within the grounds never crossing the same path twice. Stunning views in tranquil and landscaped grounds over the centre of Sicily (no villages just countryside ) Finally, the food. Highest end and freshest you are likely to find with generous variety and all prepared with love and served in the most romantic of dining rooms. We won't go back as it can't possibly be this good again but I bet it would be. If a pool is important to you on an agrituristic trip, check it is open. We loved the frogs who were making the most of a delayed start to the season as work on the pool was not quite complete.
