The Local Area

Sampieri is a typical Sicilian fishing village, just 2km from Marsa Sicla Resort, in the Province of Ragusa in south east Sicily with a lovely beach, good restaurants, small supermarket for essentials and friendly locals. Fornace Penn in Punta Pisciotto dominates the Sampieri coastline and is the famous location named Mannara in the Inspector Montalbano TV series.  

The closest big town is Scicli, 15km away and is one of the UNESCO listed Baroque towns of south east Sicily, but it is rather off-the-beaten-track compared with its more visited neighbours of Noto (40km), Ragusa (38km) and Modica (25km).  Like the other Baroque towns, Scicli has had a lot of restoration particularly Piazza Italia and Via Mormina Penna lined with churches and palazzi.

Huw's View

VOI Marsa Siclà Resort has a relaxing atmosphere and is recommended for both couples and families.

The refurbished accommodation is lovely and the quality of the cuisine very good. There are activities and entertainments but they are not intrusive. 

The location is ideal for those who wish to explore the local area  with the baroque towns of Scicli, Ragusa, Modica and Ispica within easy driving distance. 

Car hire recommended.
