La Terra Del Mezzo

We stayed here for 4 nights while visiting Sicily. We booked directly with them and it was all fine. The building is surrounded by and contains a lot of vegetation, which made it feel a bit like a tropical paradise. The rooms are a bit dated, but perfectly adequate. The fridge in the room works great, but it's a bit loud so we unplugged it overnight. The one thing missing for us were hooks in the bathrooms to hang towels - a very simple and cheap thing to add, and hopefully management reads this and adds them. The breakfast had a good selection of items and was available at a decent time (8:30 to 9:30), though it's quite a short time. They do not serve lunch, so you'll need to make your own arrangements for that. Note that there's nothing within walking distance, so you'll either need to drive to a restaurant or buy some food in advance. You can get drinks at pretty much any time and they have a good yet quite limited selection. They serve a delicious dinner. It's a set menu of 4 courses (4 types of starters, first course, second course, dessert and water) and it changes every day. It's a lot of food and it's fairly late in the evening (starts around 8PM and you get the desert close to 10PM), so we went to bed feeling very full every night. It would've been great to be able to order only some of the items on the menu instead of all. The service was very friendly, which made the whole experience pleasant. The prices they charged were alright. All in all a great experience and we would be back, though management could make some minor improvements.
