Sitting on the balcony table, served by a banquet of meats, cheeses, bread and wine, and you'll have that blissful moment – the realisation that you're in for a holiday filled with luxury.
For the times where you're just relaxing on the balcony, the enticing aromas and exotic scents of the street food and market below tempt you to sample the local delicacies. While you're out in the nexus of cobbled streets and towering chapels and churches, take a stroll to feel the underlying romance of Sicily.
Find chic galleries, fascinating museums and a wealth of breathtaking architecture. Many of the vibrant piazzas are shaped by cafes, bars and restaurants to soak in the view with fresh food and drink. For true relaxation, you can head to the harbour, creamy gelato in hand, to stroll along the idyllic shoreline.
Once in and around the city, pick up some supplies to enjoy back on the intimate rooftop terrace. Cosy and quiet, it's the perfect spot to enjoy a bottle of wine or just sit with a book amongst the tranquility. On the nights where the weather is a bit cooler, snuggle up on the sofas in front of the fireplace.
