We are a family of two adults and three teenagers who had a fantastic holiday in this beautiful apartment.

This Is a delightful apartment, very comfortable, light and spacious. Outside there is an extensive patio with a lovely terraced garden and steps leading up to the good-sized swimming pool - perfect to dip into after a hard day's sight-seeing.

Indeed there is much to see and do in this part of Sicily and the apartment, although in a rural area, is ideally located for shops,restaurants, beaches and the beautiful Baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa, Scicli, Noto and Siracusa.

There are many lovely beaches to choose from with long stretches of golden sand and clear shallow water ideal for children. We would recommend La Spiaggetta, at Sampieri and Plaia Grande, between Donnalucata and Marina di Ragusa.

As well as all this what really made the holiday extra special was the generosity and kindness of our hosts Davide and Maria

This was our first time in Sicily and we cannot think of a better introduction to this beautiful and interesting island. Everywhere we went people were friendly, helpful and very patient as we struggled to communicate in our very patchy Italian.

We hope to return to Sicily at some point in the future as there is so much to see and would love to come back to apartment Callamarieri. We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending this property to our family and friends.
