Comprehensive two week round island tour discovering Sicily's best towns and UNESCO sites
We use three- and four-star hotels and occasionally comfortable B&Bs. Some were selected for their warm hospitality and typical Sicilian character and others for their location close to the historic centres we visit. Don’t forget your swimwear – some of the hotels have swimming pools.
The accommodations used on this trip are found on the day-to-day itinerary; however, below are a couple of the standout hotels.
Piazza Armerina: Suite d'Autore (nights 6-7)
For something completely different, there’s Suite d'Autore. This art hotel in Piazza Armerina traces the history of design from the 20th century to today through its decor and displays. The rooms are, unsurprisingly, individual, while outside the front door is a honey-coloured cathedral.
Taormina: Villa Esperia (night 14)
Our final night is spent at Villa Esperia. Get the group together by the outdoor pool to toast the adventure and admire the sea views. Alternatively, a cable car to Taormina town centre is just 330ft (100m) from the front door. The hotel also has two restaurants: Bacio di Dama, which serves Sicilian dishes, and Mazzarino, a pizzeria.
