The Sicily region

Sicily - that beautiful island off the southern-most tip of Italy is one of the few places in Europe that genuinely can be called unspoilt! Its scenery has a natural and varied beauty that is truly breathtaking. Rugged, sometimes snow-capped mountains reaching for the sky are interspaced with rich meadows, adorned with wild flowers: during spring and autumn, spectacularly green and lush, yet during the sun-scorched summer, transformed into pastel shades of greens, yellows and browns. Citrus and olive groves stretch into the distance and abundant pine forests lend the air that unmistakeable Mediterranean aroma. Punctuated by the occasional farmhouse and Tuscan-like hilltop village the countryside is remarkably empty. The island has a spectacularly indented coastline, with sweeping bays and blood-red volcanic rocks plunging into the deep blue sea, and snow-capped Mount Etna providing a magnificent backdrop. At the crossroads of almost every Mediterranean civilisation, home to the richest cities in the Greek Empire, Sicily was conquered by Rome, the Moors, Normans, Spanish, French and finally the Italians. Their magnificent relics include temples, amphitheatres, churches, monasteries, villas and atmospheric old towns, with many being the most outstanding of their type in the world.

With an enviable climate, a fabulous cuisine plus some of the most accommodating and friendly people you will find anywhere, Sicily is an excellent destination to discover and you will be made welcome on this beautiful island.

Nature and history have combined to give Sicily its most striking feature: impressive monuments of the past set against backgrounds of astonishing natural beauty. Climb the hill to the 3rd century BC Greek amphitheater at Taormina and experience a setting where nature enhances art: on one side stretches the dramatic, jagged coastline of the azure blue Ionian Sea, on the other, snow capped Mt. Etna. The 12th century cathedral at Monreale, a masterpiece of Norman architecture famous for its dazzling mosaics, commands unsurpassed views down the Conca d'Oro Valley, with Palermo and its bay visible in the distance.

With its location in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily became a bridge between the civilizations of the East and West. Peoples from the southern Mediterranean, including the Phoenicians, were the earliest settlers, but the island's growth, prosperity and cultural development began with Greek colonization in the 8th century BC. The powerful city-states of Syracuse, Catania, Selinute and Agrigento competed with each other to construct the most spectacular temples.

The hauntingly beautiful Valley of the Temples, built parallel to the sea at Agrigento, are some of the best preserved outside of Greece. The Romans arrived in the 2nd century BC, followed by the Arabs, Normans, French, Spanish and finally the Bourbons. Churches, temples, gardens, palaces and theaters from these civilizations are scattered throughout the island. However, it was during the Arab domination in the 9th and 10th centuries when Sicily's influence in trade and culture expanded, while the Norman occupation in the 11th and 12th centuries was a major artistic influence, leaving behind exquisite churches and palaces of Arab-Byzantine style.

Sicily has a remarkably varied landscape, with a mountainous interior, hills and plateaus, and a wildly beautiful coastline of rocky promontories, sheer cliffs, fine sand beaches, tiny coves and clear waters. Off shore are groups of smaller islands, some of volcanic origin; Stromboli, off the northern coast, has an active volcano. Breathtaking vistas abound: the semi-tropical landscape of lemon groves and pine forests; miles of sparkling sea shore dotted by small fishing villages; and towering mountains framed by a brilliant blue sky. With its mild climate and volcanic enriched soil, Sicily is an important agricultural center, growing vegetables and citrus fruit, including the famous blood oranges, and producing olive oil and wine. Luxuriant gardens with exotic plants grace the major cities, including Palermo, the capital.

Sicilian cuisine is an adventure in history. Its cooking speaks of its complicated history of invasions and occupations as well as of the fresh flavors of the land and the bounty of the sea. There is cuscus (couscous) from Trapani, an Arab legacy, served with a fish stew. Pasta con le sarde, with fresh anchovies, is traditional. Bottarga, tuna roe that has been salted and pressed, tops pasta in the renowned spaghetti alla siracusana. Sfinciuni di San Vito, a stuffed focaccia, is not to be missed, nor is caponata, a sensuous dish of eggplant, celery and onions that are fried separately and cooked briefly in a sweet and sour sauce that includes tomatoes, raisins, pine nuts, vinegar, and a pinch of sugar.

Farsumagru, a meat roll filled with cheese, sausage and boiled eggs is one of the island's classic meat dishes, and piscispada alla ghiotta, an exuberant swordfish preparation, its most famous fish dish. Cassata, a sponge cake with ricotta, chocolate, candied fruits and pistachios, is the most beloved Sicilian dessert; ricotta-stuffed cannoli are known throughout the world. Cubbaita, a nougat with honey, almonds, and sesame seeds, speaks of Arab influence.

Some of Italy's best ice cream is made in Sicily, and little can rival the sweetness of its fruit. Sicily produces a number of great wines, most of them sweet: Marsala, Malvasia delle Lipari, and Moscato. Excellent table wines are made on the Regaleali estate; other outstanding ones are Etna, Alcamo, Corvo, Faro, and Ombra.

The Noto / Lido di Noto area

Noto is considered the "Capital of the Baroque," and is described as a lost paradise, a “treasure”, a gold-toned stone garden, a living book, the emblem of wealth in the Baroque age in Sicily.. It's impossible to think about a visit in Sicily without admiring its masterpieces, recently declared humanity heritage by UNESCO. A stay in Noto will allow you to visit the wild south-western side of Sicily and its incredible cultural and natural treasures.

You can enjoy the most beautiful beaches of the island, for example Eloro (ask people for directions if you want to find it, there are no markings!), Marchesa beach, or Cala Mosca inside the natural reserve of Vendicari. Spare your time also to visit the several baroque villages in the nearby, among which Modica, Ragusa Ibla, Scicli, besides Ortigia (the old Siracusa) and its Greek Theatre, Ispica Caves, Cava Grande del Cassibile, and many many others

Do not miss the famous and suggestive "Infiorata", a picturesque festival to welcome the Spring, which takes place every third Sunday of May, since 1980. Local artists work nightime to prepare colourful real flowers carpets all over the streets, every year with a different theme. The whole week is animated by concerts, exhibitions and festivals.

In the south - eastern corner of Sicily there is the province of Syracuse, one of the most appreciated areas where tourists can enjoy both the awe-inspiring heights and lave-flows of Mt Etna, and trendy villages like Taormina, Caltagirone and Piazza Armerina.

If you are an food lover, you shouldn't miss Sicilian food: fish, meat, sweets (mandorle, torroni, mustazzola, granite al limone) and wines (Moscato di Noto, Moscato di Siracusa, Eloro, Nero d'Avola).

“Wonderful Villa, Wonderful Hosts, Lovely Beaches, Great Places to Visit” The villa was everything we could have wished for - clean, spaceous, comfortable and well equipped. Loved the veranda area for eating outdoors and relaxing. Hammock was wonderful. Elda and Ernesto were lovely - gave us lots of helpful advice on where to visit and suggested places to eat out. We enjoyed the nearby beaches which were beautiful, quiet and clean when we visited in early October. The whole coastline looked lovely. We hired a car and visited many of the historic places that there are to visit in the area. We only had a week at Villa Elora and as there were so many wonderful places to visit, I wished that we had more time in the area - even the countryside looked lovely and I would have liked to spend some time just walking and enjoying the surroundings. Can highly recommend Villa Elora

“Perfect relaxation” The owners, Ernesto and Elda, were extremely helpful and very discrete, even though they live directly beneath the rental accommodation. There was plenty of space inside and outside the apartment and everything we needed was there. The location was excellent for the beach, for motorway access and for visiting the south east of the island. The weather was very good, the water warm for swimming and there were very few tourists where we were. (Main attractions such as Taormina obviously busier). If you want a quiet getaway, you can't do better.

“Excellent choice” Ernesto and Elda are delightful people who could not be more hospitable, welcoming and helpful. Take their advice on where to eat and swim and you will not go wrong. The local beach is absolutely fine, but can get crowded and it is worth taking the car a few miles down the coast to some less populated beaches. The property is well-placed for visiting Noto itself and Siracusa, Ragusa, Modica and a number of other obvious places to go when in the area. The apartment is clean and comfortable and the terrace is excellent for getting some shade from the sun and eating "at home". Altogether an excellent choice.

“Exceeded all expectations” Property was as advertised, and I would say much better. We expected much smaller rooms but especially living room was large and comfortable. Every room has a simple but stylish decoration, we liked it very much. Whole house was clean and and towels were provided, also baby cot etc. Kitchen contains all utensils you need, we did not find anything we missed, even we cooked for our daughter (2.5). Ernesto and Elda were very helpful and nice all the time.House is is in beautiful garden, you get dedicated parking spot on a property, so you do not have to park on a street(even I doubt anyone would do anything to your car in this tranquil place). I am not sure if property has WIFI as we did not ask and did not needed it, we were there to relax, not to spend time on internet. There is also TV, but we did not use it. . AC is in the main bedroom and living-room - it works ;), though rooms were not so hot, in fact they were of nice temperature even after a hot day. Even terrace is in a shade so you can enjoy afternoon siesta in quite cool place outdoors. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend or people looking for nice getaway were hosts are helpful and always have time to a small or a longer chat. We are in fact thinking we would return there one day. -------------------------------------- LIdo di Noto is quiet place especially at the time we visited, early June, people came there just over the weekend, but beaches were sandy and nice. Village has some restaurants, but they were mostly empty. Sciroco had the best food, especially pizza was awesome. Baglieri was also OK. Ice cream in Lido di Noto was not the best, icy not creamy. Head rather to Noto,Syracuse or Marzamemi for a great gellato ;).

“Excellent Villa, clean & comfortable with a friendly feel” Our stay at Villa Eloro was most enjoyable and I would highly recommend it. The details given and pictures shown are exactly how it is, with a spacious living room, two large comfortable terraces and a typical Sicilian garden. Ernesto & Elda were extremely welcoming and were the friendliest of hosts but without interference. We had a relaxing time when at the Villa which was tastefully decorated and immaculately clean, and with plenty to visit nearby it was all in all a wonderful holiday.

“We will be looking forward to returning and recommending the holiday destination.” Ernesto made the whole process of informing us in advance and advising us of places to visit during our stay but without ever interfering. The apartment was perfect for us, close to the beach but easy to access the surrounding area. We stayed during April, and enjoyed a bit more quiet than in the main season, ideal for a getaway with wonderful culture and architecture to admire without the crowds. People were very friendly and the local food and markets were great. Good value and a wonderful host in Ernesto. Doug Haworth

“relaxing and comfortable” The villa Eloro had everything we needed and is well maintained and beatifully clean. It is surrounded by lovely gardens and trees and has terraces all around perfect for relaxing and eating out. It is relly well situated a short walk in to Lido di Noto and the local beaches and ideal for travelling around this part of Sicily. There is lots to see and we visited archeological sites lovely Baroque towns, seaside villages and the nature reserve at Vendicari which is gorgeous and excellent for birdwatching. Ernesto and his wife were very welcoming and helpful and we felt very comfortable and at home. If you have never been to Sicily before like us this would be a great place to stay and aquaint yourself with this fascinating island. We would certainly go again.

“Comfortable and peaceful” We had a lovely stay at Villa Eloro. The weather was good enough for us to be outside every day - the outdoor terrace provided us with hours of dozing! The owners were great; helpful when we needed them and otherwise we hardly noticed that they were there (they occupy the lower half of the villa).

“Excellent appartment, great location, wonderful hosts” We really enjoyed our stay at the Villa Eloro and would definitely love to return. The appartment is spacious, private and very well maintained and equipped, with a large and airy outside terrace with seating. Great for dining or relaxing, and for children to play. It's just a couple of minutes walk from the nearest beach (in town), and only a short drive to various beautiful (and quiet) beaches inside a nature reserve. Great restaurant and pizzeria are a short walk away. The owners are a lovely couple, extremely helpful and kind, but also very discreet. Perfect holiday rental. Highly recommended.

“Beautiful Villa, excellent location and very welcoming owners!” We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Eloro. Ernesto and Elda were extremely welcoming and very helpful throughout our stay. The villa itself is beautiful, very spacious with an excellent outdoor terrace and a well equipped kitchen too. The location couldn't have been better, perfect for trips to Noto, Siracua, Ragusa and many other places. With a selection of beaches a couple of minutes walk we had a really relaxing holiday and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

“lovely well designed relaxing place” Quiet, clean and comfortable, excellent kitchen. Great balcony and garden, and surrounded by trees and sound of sea, goldfinches, greenfinches and house sparrows. Excellent location for Noto and Vendicari. Owners very helpful and friendly.
