Set in the countryside of south-east Sicily and only 3 kilometres from wide sandy mediterranean beaches, Cambiocavallo Resort is a strategic point for anyone wishing to explore this fascinating territory. The area is rich in architecture, archeological sites, natural treasures and of course its wine and food, and the resort with its surrounding dry stone walls and arab-mediterranean garden full of palm, carob and ancient olive trees is an oasis of welcoming hospitality.
Once a stopping place for travellers with horses (from which it derives its name) this Sicily hotel has been carefully and tastefully restored by its architect owners who, inspired by the principles of bioarchitecture, have brought to light its most characteristic elements. The resulting marriage of the traditional features of exposed stone walls, cane ceilings and warmly coloured plaster with minimalist and modern design gives a particular elegance to this structure while its advanced technological features offer the traveller every modern comfort.
This hotel in Sicily offers guests eight particularly pleasing light and peaceful rooms (including two suites) elegantly furnished in minimalist contemporary style and all facing onto a central deck. Phone, satellite TV, fax, internet connection and Jacuzzi bathtub are all features. The warm welcome awaiting guests is followed through with a thoughtfully supplied free mini bar offering water and fresh fruit and, on request, breakfast in your room at no extra cost.
In the aromatic arab-mediterranean gardens surrounding the hotel there are organised events, themed evenings and gourmet nights to allow you to explore the intoxicating flavours of this area’s wonderful cuisine, while beyond the walls a world of fascinating excursions awaits you. From local wineries and tastings of the local Nero d’Avola wines to Modica where you can sample the famous chocolate, from the fish market at Portopalo (one of Sicily’s most important fishing centres) to the flower market at Scicli, there is something for every taste.
