Gabriella's place offers a great location (and stunning views) in a lovely town. The house is finished to a high standard and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The highlight is definitely the balcony - waking up and sitting out overlooking the town or watching the sunset in the evening is a bit magical. Although other reviews said that the steps were a problem, we didn't find this at all (well, once the suitcases were in and emptied). Scicli is a wonderful town with welcoming people, fantastic architecture and great dining. It serves as a great base for exploring south eastern Sicily and the UNESCO/Baroque towns of Ragusa, Modica and Noto. Plus you're only 10 mins drive from the beach. We'll definitely visit again - Gabrielle was a great and attentive host.
