I live in Scicli,  the most beautiful town in the word, a bit because it is said by the great novelist Elio Vittorini and a bit because it’s my homeland that I love for its naturalistic and artistic beauties and, most of all, for its landscapes, its light, its blue sea, its golden beaches!

Here you can find the so proverbial ospitality of the Sicilians: we live peacefully and in harmony.

Scicli, together with Modica (5 km’s away) and Ragusa (10 km’s) it’s a Unesco’s word site for Baroque style.

All the town its a masterpiece of what we could call the real Sicily, in fact Scicli is the spot for the well-known movie fiction Inspector Montalbano.

The via Mornino Penna is the hearth of the city and here is a beautiful Museo del costume.

Don’t forget to visit at least one of the three hills that overlook Scicli. You can go up to them walking through narrow alleys that recall the visitors a very ancient Sicily.

Inside the town have a visit to the Chiafura, a sort of ancient Scicli, with dwellings carved in the rock where once lived our great-grandparents

Our golden beaches are among the most famous in Sicily: Sampieri (5 km’s), Cava d’Aliga (5 km’s), Donnalucata (5 km’s) and Marina di Ragusa (photo, 8 km’s).

 

If you love nature this are my suggestions: Irminio river (5 km’s), the lakes of Cava Grande canyon (50 km’s) and the astonishing Vendicari a paradise for birdwatchers.

Two other Unesco’s, unmissable, masterpieces not so far: Syracuse (70 km’s), the capital of the Mediterranean in V b.C;  and the famous Noto (50 km’s)

Syracuse

 

Another great site is Cava d’Ispica (20 km’s) where nature and archaelogy live together.

Our kitchen is very rich of recipes and still now our old women do it as it once was.

This is the menù I suggest  you (with the kind permission of Mamma’s chef Silvana, of course): sea fruits, squid, sepia, mullet, pasta with swordfish, teste di turco (a typical Scicli’s sweet).

In Donnalucata (5 km’s) you will find a renowned outdoor fish market

Austria (Mammasicily)
What a pleasant holiday spent in this villa. The pool always perfect and quiet area. we can only say that we regret not spending some more time in this place.
USA (Vrbo)
Tastefully furnished, modern and fresh villa. We also liked the exterior very much. The village of Scicli is lovely with beautiful beaches and many cute restaurants. We received lots of advice from Sandra and were supported from the first to the last day. I recommend this villa to everyone
UK ( TripAdvisor member)
A wonderful spacious villa set in a quiet location. Air conditioning worked well. A well equipped kitchen, including the wine fridge. Large pool with several shades and lots of outdoor space. Many thanks to Sandra e Guglielmo who welcomed us and looked after us for the whole stay: even though we arrived a few days late! And thank you again for the great tips - especially gelato!!
Sweden (Airbnb)
The house is wonderful and situated in country settings. It is about 5 km to the nearest beach and to the supermarket in Sampieri. The pool is amazing and there is even a jacuzzi, which we did not use. Guglielmo was very helpful and available and answered directly if there was any problem. We haf a very late arrival (00.30) but Guglielmo waited at the house and also gave us some flexibility at checkout. Substantially we are very pleased with the stay and can defenetily recommend others to rent this house.

Très belle location haut de gamme avec un design parfait. Accueil très sympa.Un endroit très calme avec une grande piscine un peu fraîche en avril.
USA (Airbnb)
Our travel group totaled 5 and included family and friends. We enjoyed a number of things about this beautiful villa, including the modern, spacious accommodations, attractive landscaping and pool, central location (close to the charming town of Scicli) and our responsive host Guglielmo. I highly recommend this villa to anyone exploring the southeast region of Sicily. And definitely look to hire private chef Laura to cook local cuisine for you.
Denmark (Airbnb)
Huset er mindst lige så dejligt som på billederne og Guglielmo er meget behjælplig og svarer hurtigt.
England (Airbnb)
Comfortable and masses of space to chill out and enjoy the huge beautiful pool Difficult to find if you arrive in the dark so Guglielmo's offer of meeting us at Sampieri was very welcome and necessary. Beach at Sampieri excellent and Syracuse worth a day trip.
USA (Airbnb)
Perfect location, facilities, privacy, the best of the places we stayed during a two- week stay in Sicily.
Germany (Airbnb)
Wir hatten eine großartige Zeit in der Casa Salina. Die Umgebung ist ruhig und die Landschaft, mit den vielen Trockenmauern, ist außergewöhnlich. Das Interieur des Hauses ist mit Liebe und Geschmack gestaltet und für ein Ferienhaus schon ungewöhnlich hochwertig. Es ist lediglich etwas hellhörig. Der Garten und der Pool sind wunderbar und wir haben beides sehr genossen. Wir würden gerne eines Tages wieder kommen und empfehlen das Haus auf jeden Fall weiter.
France (Airbnb)
La villa est superbe, au delà de nos espérances,encore plus belle que sur les photos(la piscine est immense et magnifique mais un peu froide en avril), tout est à disposition et Guglielmo est un hôte très sympathique. Le propriétaire est très sympathique lui aussi. Nous avons donc été très heureux de notre séjour et la région a beaucoup d'atouts. En bref je recommande vivement cette villa qui nous laissera un super souvenir au point de vouloir y retourner.
England (Airbnb)
The villa was decorated and fitted out to a high standard in a scenic part of Sicily.

I was made very welcome by the host who gave good recommendations as to what can be done locally (e.g. towns nearby and vineyards) as well as the best route from Catania airport.

I would not hesitate to recommend this villa to my friends and to return next year.
Roma, Italia (Homeaway)
We stayed in Casa Salina for one week in June
The place is amazing ....quite and super private .....very close toi the beatiful beach of Sampieri and few minutes from Scicli and other barroque cities .
