Valle di Mare Resort  

In Fontane Bianche on Sicily’s south‑east coast, a 4-star resort tucked into gardens just steps from the sand. It’s a 6‑minute walk to Fontane Bianche Beach and about a 15‑minute drive to Siracusa and Noto. Nearby highlights include Castello Maniace, Fonte Aretusa, the Museo Regionale and nature reserves like Vendicari and Plemmirio. Family-friendly and garden-front, ideal for beach and culture days.

Dipped in olive trees and orange blossom scent, the resort keeps things relaxed and informal. All guest rooms sit on the ground floor and open onto private patios; 29 air‑conditioned rooms feature minibars, satellite TV and private bathrooms. Rooms come as doubles, twins or superior family rooms, with Sicilian touches and plenty of outdoor space.

Soak in the outdoor pool or sip at the poolside bar. Spa facilities include a sauna, steam room, spa tub and a massage room. There’s a beach shuttle (surcharge), free on‑site parking, a library, barbecue area and seasonal entertainment like live music and a disco‑bar. Wake up to sea‑breeze mornings and stroll to the sand.

Complimentary wireless internet in public areas and the lobby, daily housekeeping, dry cleaning/laundry and wedding services. Airport and train transfer services can be arranged for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant serves Sicilian dishes (dinner in summer) alongside a bar and poolside bar for casual drinks. Expect tasty regional flavors and a warm, laid-back dining vibe.
