On the edge of the Ionian coast, you’ll want to drop your bags and immediately head out to the terrace. The interior is just as eye-catching as its Sicilian surroundings – take your pick of two living rooms to unwind, fall asleep blissfully in the elegant bedrooms and wake up refreshed with the help of your rain shower (each en-suite has one). You’ll find multiple balconies to soak in the panoramas, though you’ll need to climb some stairs – a glass of Nero d’Avola at the top will make it all worth it. Or hop in the car to Syracuse for an evening in the Roman city, where you can sample the local Sicilian cuisine amongst the ancient ruins.
