Sicily

AN ISLAND TO BE DISCOVERED

Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean and in Italy, is suited for all types of vacations. From its amazing sea with pebble and white sand beaches to its rugged volcanic coastlines, from its rich cultural heritage and history to its traditional flavors, Sicily is an island for everyone.

Its main cities include Palermo, Catania, Syracuse, Messina, Ragusa, Trapani, Agrigento, and Taormina. Sicily is also home to the Aeolian islands, with its lovely beaches and two active volcanoes where you can discover off the beaten path hiking trails. Whether it be a five star resort, or a fun family vacation, we have a selection of luxury accommodations to choose from to make your Sicilian vacation a dream come true.

The northern coast of Sicily stretches and changes from west to east. Palermo is the capital of the region with distinct displays of Arabic architecture and a colorful culture of cuisine, history and tradition. The surrounding area is covered with agricultural estates and vineyards.

The Southern area of Sicily is home to the eight cities of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Val di Noto. The area is rich in beautiful expressions of Baroque style, stunning stretches of vineyards, rich culinary tradition, and layers of history.

Baroque elegance is also apparent in Western Sicily’s Trapani, a city whose style and busy port also reflect the Arab domination, when it was a hub for salt, coral, and tuna.

Distinctly more Greek than its Arabic-like counterparts in other areas of Sicily, the cities of Catania, Taormina, and Siracusa boast Greek ruins that have been said to be better preserved than the Parthenon. An architectural tour of this area of Sicily can be complemented by a stop at Europe's most active volcano and producer of spectacular wines, Mt. Etna.

Hotels in the same category, even in the same resort, can vary considerably in character, ambience, service and facilities and may not offer the same staffing levels and facilities, or be as well maintained. it must be bourne in mind that cost is a good indication of standards, particulary when comparing hotels in the same star rating.
