Scicli Hotel Guide - Chiesa di Santa Maria la Nova hotels in Scicli, Italy.

"I had a great 5 night stay here. Laura, the hostess, is very warm and friendly and makes a great breakfast each morning. The rooms are very clean and cozy, and they are cleaned every morning of your stay. The property is about a 3-5 minute drive from Scicli, and I didn't have a problem finding free parking each time I drove in to Scicli (I was there at the end of September). Sciclic has a number of restaurants and shops, so that's very close by. The property is out Scili and is surrounded by farms. It's very picturesque. I enjoyed going on runs through the countryside. The roads weren't very busy at all, so it was a great place for running. You pass a lot of olive trees, flowers, and you can even see the Mediterranean in the distance. The place is very quiet at night, and it has a gate. I don't think there was much chance at all of anyone trying to break into my car. I used this place as a base to visit various places each day of my stay (Ragusa, Modica, Scicli, Donnalucata, Donnafugata, Marina di Ragusa, etc.). It was easy to just hop in my car and drive off to a new place or two each day. Of course, I had to deal with finding parking and navigating the narrow roads in each location, but at least the parking where I slept at night was super easy. "

"Great location, in a modern hotel. Friendly helpful staff. Excellent breakfast (best we had on our 2 week trip)."

"We were a family party of eight. We had a wonderful week at the Villa. The villa was very well equipped and clean. The outside area from the veranda adjacent to the kitchen where we ate every night, lawns and garden, to the pool area, were all beautifully kept. It was generally very quiet, save from a few local dogs barking from time to time.Our host Franco was great, he was very welcoming, meeting us on our arrival, giving us a comprehensive guided tour and advice about the area. Franco and the team also made sure that any initial niggles that we had were fixed within hours.We also made a couple of late afternoon trips to a local coastal town - Donnalucata, after the hottest part of the day was over and spent a few hours on the lovely sandy beach and also had a meal at one of the beach-side restaurants.A great stay in a great villa which we highly recommended. We plan to return."

"The villa was clean but needed some updating the swimming pool were really old in and out needed upgrading the road was really bad to get to the villa really nice owners lovely view and relaxing just needed updating and lots of lizards in the property had to kill lots my kids were really scared didn’t sleep at night. "

"The place was great. Amazing .. very open. Spacious. I can not say anything negative. The village house is in a side street. Very very very quiet. The a/c worked well. It was extremely hot. There was amazing cave restaurant across the street. Comunications wirh the owner was great. This is a modern way to stay in a real Italian village. The area is amazing. And thank you for the 2 big things that you did. Maybe I will stay here again in the future. I am thinking about coming back. "

"This is the real Sicily, how we imagined my husband’s grandparents living. The villa is secluded and private; the view and grounds are worth the price of admission. The accommodations are as pictured, modern and rustic. We really were not expecting to have the entire pool to ourselves. The patio is huge and entirely covered so it can be enjoyed regardless of weather. We made good use of the outdoor charcoal grill. The local property manager and his family were incredibly warm and welcoming. We managed to communicate with Google translate. Scicli itself is a charming village with excellent restaurants, bakeries, food shops, etc. It gets touristy on weekends so you’ll want to take advantage of quieter week days to explore the village and its interesting history."
