Buffet Breakfast: Start your day with a feast for the senses. Enjoy a rich selection of homemade cakes, our jams, our honey and the savory specialties of the region along with fresh seasonal produce.
We are located within the Site of Community Importance (SCI) called Cozzo Ogliastri (code ITA090024, now classified as a Special Area of Conservation - SAC), a protected natural area situated in the north-eastern sector of the Monti Iblei, partly within the municipal territory of Melilli (SR). The area encompasses the Villasmundo-Sant'Alfio speleological complex and is of fundamental ecological and landscape importance for the protection of local biodiversity. In particular, the specific zone where we are located is rich in rare bird species, including the peregrine falcon, Bonelli's eagle and the collared dove: a true paradise for birdwatchers.
