My sisters and I had a wonderful time at Casa Cosy - a very relaxing seaside holiday. We visited in July and the weather was hot and fine every day - perfect for enjoying the shared swimming pool which had an amazing view over the sea. We also ventured down to swim off the rocks.
The view from the verandah is the most outstanding part of he accommodation. The sunrises and sunsets with Mt Etna in the background are truly breathtaking. We had breakfast and dinner on the verandah each day and explored nearby towns during the day.
The location is reasonably remote so you will need a car to explore the nearby towns. We particularly enjoyed Siracusa although also visited Brucoli, Augusta, Modica, Catania and caltagirone.
The accommodation is as shown in the pictures with a simple fresh white and blue decor. There are two bedrooms - one with two single beds which were joined together and another with a single bed and trundle. We slept very soundly.
Enrico was a very welcoming host. He kindly met us in Catania, helped us pickup our rental car and drove in front of us to Casa Cosy. Being from Australia and not overly familiar with driving on the right side of the road this was most welcome.
Some of the other buildings in the local area are quite rundown but this didn't diminish our enjoyment once at Casa Cosy which is as shown in the picture.
The apartment is fully equipped to cook yummy Italian meals each day and we had great fun doing this. We also enjoyed the fresh bread and pastries from the man who drove past each day with is truck. Enrico kindly left us some supplies on our arrival. The local shop (fattoria) carries fresh fruit, vegetables, cheeses, bread and basic pantry ingredients but you will probably want to pickup some other food for your stay at one of the nearby towns.
Enrico was a very helpful host and gave us good tips on the local area. I would highly recommend this accommodation for a relaxing holiday with a view you will remember forever.
