"Breakfast is outstanding. Everyone is very attentive. The grounds are beautiful. The wine is delicious. Everyone at the desk can't be more helpful. It is a bit of a difficult drive-in and out but well worth the effort. The rooms are clean well appointed. The only thing missing is shampoo in the rooms. They give you robes and slippers. I would be very happy to go back there if I ever came back to Sicily."
