About Sicily

Sicily, the sun-soaked jewel of the Mediterranean, dazzles with golden beaches, rolling vineyards, ancient Greek temples, and the fiery silhouette of Mount Etna. Hotel options are as varied as the island itself – indulge in luxury sea-view suites in Taormina, unwind in family-friendly resorts along Cefalù’s sandy shores, or find budget-friendly charm in Palermo’s lively streets. For a unique twist, stay at a vineyard estate or restored countryside villa – Sicily has the perfect escape for every traveller.

Some of our Sicilian Collections:

You might find yourself wandering through the grand streets of Palermo, soaking up its architectural splendour, or losing track of time in the Baroque beauty of Noto and Modica. Those in search of golden sands can linger in Taormina or Marsala, while history lovers will feel right at home among the ancient ruins of Agrigento or Syracuse. And for a true island escape, the nearby outposts of Favignana and Pantelleria each offer their own brand of tranquillity and drama.

Whatever draws you to Sicily — family adventures, culinary indulgence, scenic hikes, city exploration, or just a good old-fashioned beach holiday — the island has a way of serving it up in generous measure. Chances are, somewhere here will feel like it was made just for you.

Travel information

Sicily has four airports: Palermo Airport, which is in Punta Raisi, about 35kms outside Palermo, and Catania Airport, which is about 5kms outside Catania; both are international airports with flag-carrier and low-cost airlines. Plus there's Trapani Airport and Comiso Airport, which are both favoured by European no-frills carriers.
If you plan to hire a car we recommend you visit our online partner Rentalcars.
Sicily, unlike some Italian destinations, remains open all year round. That doesn’t mean it’s equally nice all year round, it’s definitely chillier in winter and if you do come between November and February expect the daylight hours to impact opening hours too. Spring, or March through June, really, is one of our favourite times to visit Sicily, because the weather is sunny and mild, and the festival and events calendar is packed with activity leading up to Easter. July and August are properly hot and the beaches, and beach resorts, get busy. Visitors tail off in September, though the sea is still warm, but this is when the humidity rises; the Scirocco winds bring a good amount of rainfall in September. October is a good pick if you’re planning to visit Sicily’s museums and palaces, and admire the architecture, and we recommend September and October, and April and May, as the best times to visit for a walking holiday.
