All rooms are contemporary with a local twist and each has an uninterrupted view across the sparkling Mediterranean Sea from a private terrace. Natural materials such as stone, sand, wood and cane echo the traditional architecture of Sicily, and rooms make imaginative use of both outdoor and indoor space. All bedrooms feature luxurious four-poster wooden beds, large bathrooms with bathtubs and large walk-in shower and furnished balcony or terrace.

What will the weather be like...
Sicily has a wonderful Mediterranean climate - being far South it really enjoys a longer season than many destinations and certainly has the most hours of sunshine and the least number of rainy days compared to any other Italian destination.
The summer heat is moderated to an average of 30 degrees celcius by the sea in the peak summer months with warm nights averaging 20 degrees. The days are long and sunny with 10 hours sunshine per dayand virtually no rain.
Spring tends to be marginally more reliable than Autumn. April averages 7 hours of sunshine per day and 20 degrees, May 8 hours and 24 degrees whereas October and November both have an average of 6 hours per day and tempertures of 25 and 21 degrees respectively.
