Casa Carmelo - Holiday apartment at the beach at Donnalucata

Beach holidays alla siciliana

At the long sandy beach of Donnalucata, Carmelo and Francesca have realized their dream of a small Sicilian beach house. As soon as you step outside, you feel the golden sand tickling your soles.

You see the waves gently rolling towards you at this still authentic coastal section, where you can spend great holidays at any time of the year.

Should you really tire of these wide expanses of beach, then stop by the nearby charming Baroque towns of Scicli, Ragusa, Ispica or Modica. Strolling through the alleys, creamy ice cream in hand, is great, above all on mild summer evenings.

Nothing but sand and sea...

Casa Carmelo is located on the first floor of a terrace house with altogether 3 apartments, which you enter via the beach.

The holiday apartment accommodates up to four persons and includes a bedroom with double bed, a living room with adjoining kitchenette and two bathrooms.

The living room of Casa Carmelo is furnished with a sofa bed for 2, a cozy chair, a small dining table with chairs and TV. It offers access of the sea view balcony as well as of the kitchenette in the entrance area and of one of the two bathrooms. The bathrooms are equipped with shower cabin, WC and bidet each.

The kitchenette includes, amongst others, gas stove, refrigerator and coffee machine.

There are fly screens in all the windows. WiFi access at Casa Carmelo is free of charge.

A separate laundry room, with wash basin and washing machine, in the inner courtyard is for shared use. The small garden, with grill and sun loungers, behind the house is also for shared use by those living in the house.

Only for you to enjoy – the uninhibited view of the sea from the balcony of Casa Carmelo. The canopy always provides for a shady spot, where you can either unwind or simply watch what is going on at the beach.

Surroundings, shopping, parking

The holiday apartment is about 800 m from the center of Donnalucata, which you can walk to along the beach. By car you have to cover a distance of about 2 km.
