Casena Mongerrati is a magical place...from the charming stone casena with it’s beautiful landscaping, to the majestic Madonie Mts in its back yard and Roberta’s attention to astethics inside and out, making everything just a notch better. And of course the beautiful pool! We arrived mid-afternoon and it was a hot day. And we were the only guests! The pool beckoned so we sat outside with wine and snacks enjoying the perfect evening; then dipped into the cool water. After awhile a fog cloud slowly rose from the sea, rolled over the mountains and covered everything with a mystical haze. It was breathtaking. In another 30 minutes the sun was back and it was clear again. It’s a short drive from Cefalu and a most gorgeous one from Catania. We spent only one night because we were at the end of our unforgettable Sicilian experience. Definitely will want to stay longer.
