Location and special feature of this Bed & Breakfast on Sicily:
After arriving at Bed & Breakfast Il Casale, you will be overwhelmed by the colourful vegetation on the 20,000 m² property which lies on a hill on the peninsula of Isola di Siracusa and offers a fantastic view of the azure coloured Mediterranean Sea.
The sea is only 1 km off.
Hospitality is very important on Sicily, especially at B&B Il Casale!
The owner, her parents and even her grandmother tend to their guests with care, provide you with a rich breakfast and furnish valuable tips for your stay.
Thus, there is no reason why you shouldn't experience unforgettable holidays on Sicily, between Orient and Occident!
The accommodation:
The spacious premises of B&B Il Casale with well-groomed lawn and lush planting include the reception with breakfast room, 10 guest rooms, a roofed lounge with out-door bar, a pool as well as a holiday home,
Villa Gialla, which is located somewhat apart on the upper part of the property.
The two rooms we have chosen for you, number three and number nine, are to be found in the two ground-level buildings next to the reception and each has got a private terrace with a fantastic view of the landscape on the peninsula of Isola di Siracuse, which is partly a nature reserve and surrounded by the sea.
Room number 3:
This guest room for up to three persons offers double bed, pull-out sofa, refrigerator, table, heating, fan, TV, fly screen as well as wardrobe.
The bathroom is equipped with shower cabin, WC and bidet. On the partly roofed private terrace with its view across the peninsula and the sea, you can spend relaxing hours reading or simply sunbathing. A screen and some plants separate your terrace from the one of the adjacent room.
Room number 9:
This is another beautiful room with double bed, refrigerator, table, heating, fly screen and wardrobe. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub with shower device, WC and bidet. The roofed terrace offers a view across the green landscape of Isola di Siracusa. Room number 9 is located in a detached bungalow.
The pool:
The large pool is 18 m long, 5 m wide and 1.40 m deep – ideal for enthusiastic swimmers to do their laps. It is open daily from 11:00 to 18:00 hours from June to September and may even be on warm spring and autumn days.
There are two outdoor showers next to the pool and changing cubicles, two showers and WCs in a separate room. The pool bar which is open during high season provides snacks and drinks, comfortable sunloungers invite you to take sunbaths.
A panorama jogging trail has been laid out round the pool. Thus, athletes get their money's worth, too.
Surroundings:
The sea as well as restaurants and shopping facilities are found about one to two km off. We recommend the restaurants "Ostrica Park" and "Il Circolo", which are located directly on the waterfront and serve delicious dishes of fresh-caught fish.
The nearest sandy beach with parking and small bar is 1.6 km, a boat rental 1 km off.
Journey:
Catania airport is about an hour's drive north of Syracuse.
Destinations for excursions:
The town of Syracuse 10 km off is absolutely worth a visit. In ancient times, it counted among the most powerful towns of the world then known and Cicero called it the most beautiful and greatest of all Greek towns.
South of Isola di Siracusa, you can stop at the long sandy beach of Fontane Bianche, at the beautiful Baroque towns of
Avola and
Noto as well as at the famous nature reserve of Oasi Vendicari.
The latter is a place of rest for migratory birds on their way to Africa in winter and invites visitors to go for a swim at its marvellous beaches.
In the hinterland of Syracuse, the necropolis of Pantálica with its 5000 tomb caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the deep gorge of the Anapo river await you at nature reserve „Riserva Naturale Orientata“.
