Hotel Villa Favorita

Sicily, Italy

Just outside the Baroque town of Noto, surrounded by olive and orange groves and close to the Sicilian Sea, is the Hotel Villa Favorita. Formerly a family’s summer residence, this 18th-century villa is lined with almond trees and is still run by members of the original family today, creating a warm and inviting feeling.

OUR OPINION:

We love this hotel's serene rural location yet it’s easy to get to the coast and to the heart of Noto. Their dedication to organic farming and using locally produced ingredients is to be admired.
