Agriturismo Borgo Degli Ulivi

Our extended family passed 5 nights here attending a wedding (at another venue). The accommodation is spread over quite a large estate so everybody had a sense of their own space and privacy. I think all apartments benefit from a private garden also. The accommodation itself is very spacious - our rooms were large and with high ceilings. The pool area is gorgeous and maintained to a high standard. The grass around the pool is luscious and the pool is possibly the largest I ever saw in a country villa setting. The restaurant has a menu typical for the region and was good value. We enjoyed some excellent wines. Only some of the staff have English but we managed fine. The gentleman who looks after the rooms has good English and was very kind - as were the rest of the staff. It is interesting to be amidst an olive farm. We didn't take full advantage but there are many walks locally. We enjoy trips to Noto and the Lido di Noto and to Palazzolo Acreidi. This venue is mid-range in terms of the luxury vibe which is reflected in very reasonable pricing. Most importantly the staff are friendly and helpful. There was local Broadband outage during our stay but the 4G (mb 5G) signal was strong in most locations. All was right and proper when it came to settling up our (rather large) tab.

Great stay for families. Very nice pool area with lots of space where children can run and play. Spacious rooms however they could use a bit of renovations. Breakfast was average. Could include a bit more items and more fresh. We had dinner on our first night at the restaurant and the food was amazing and very affordable. Overall great stay!

Sizeable swimming pool, beautiful landscapes, games, knowledgeable staff, hearty breakfasts and an excellent selection of Sicilian dishes for the evening meal, Borgo degli Ulivi offered something for everyone in our group aged from 15 to 85 years. Within an hours' drive you can reach Syracuse, several Baroque towns and an adventure park, Parco dall' Ario.
