Relais Chiaramonte

Ottimo

Beautiful hotel, clean with amazing views of the country side and nice poolside. Highly recommend adding on breakfast - high quality buffet with countless choices and barista making coffee drink of your choice. Note that the pool is not heated therefore could not swim beginning of June. Gym is scarcely equipped, would not count on using it. Excellent location to visit Noto valley if you have a car, however everything is 15-20mins away and no places to take a walk without driving. Staff very friendly. Overall highly recommend if above fits your needs.

The hotel is situated above an olive farm with stunning views. I think they do a lot of weddings at the weekends, and it's the ideal setting. We only stayed one night, in a suite with views of the countryside and the sea. Staff at reception were very friendly and helpful. Our suite was spacious, with a separate living area, including kitchen and sofa, as well as a large balcony. It was spotlessly clean, and the bed was comfortable. We did have an issue with the balcony door which the staff had to resolve. Also, I don't think the air con was working correctly. However, as it was October, this wasn't a major issue for us. We ate at the restaurant as it was more convenient than driving into Ragusa or Scicli. However, both are fairly close, only about 15 minutes drive. The restaurant was very good, serving high quality cuisine. Breakfast was served in a separate building next to the pool, with views of the countryside, and was also excellent. After checking-out, we were able to go for a walk through the olive orchards before leaving. There are beaches about 15 minutes away, for those staying longer than we did. The hotel was very good value for money and would make a good base for anyone wanting to explore the surrounding area by car.

Super comfy room, very stylish and modern place with a beautiful pool and gardens. Food was lovely at dinner and breakfast. All staff friendly. Such a serene and clean place to relax for a few days. We had to check out super early so the staff kindly left us a breakfast bag in the fridge in our room.

We stayed for 7 nights in this place. We were upgraded to a swim up suite, which was a really nice surprise and a bonus to have the little private pool. This is a luxury hotel with the agriturismo spirit. The location is beautiful, super quiet, especially when you are staying in the second building that they recently opened. The views are marvelous and we enjoyed a walk through the olive orchard every morning and see the men at work harvesting the olives. Breakfast was good with a great variety, also vegetarian friendly. The ladies at the reception are super friendly and helpful. The wellness was a bit bare when we booked it as only jacuzzi and sauna were working but they gave us a 50% discount in return. We do feel that you are a bit far away to explore the interesting towns nearby, for us this was more about visiting beaches, apart from visiting Scicli. You can go for more touristic beach in Marina di Ragusa or more local in Donnalucata. Great options to eat out in the area, but you will need to drive a bit and the restaurant at the hotel was a very good option too, but rather for a full dining experience for one night than daily dinners. We did use the kitchenette quite a bit so that's a great addition in the room. If we go to Sicily again, we will happily return here.

Wonderfull large rooms facing the mountain and sea. Place is tranquil. Eat here as fantastic. Nothing near unless 15 min by car
