Agriturismo Giardino di Iti

We stayed at Agriturismo Giardino di Iti during the winter and after the agriturismo had struggled with a recent flood of all of their rooms. The staff were very friendly and apologetic about the repercussions of the the flood. The room was large and farmhouse chic. Outside of the rooms you could envision a lovely space in the spring and summer months where climbing vines would be in bloom and where tables would be spaced throughout for outside enjoyment. The accommodation was close to a licorice museum and a wonderful archaeological area. The restaurant was wonderful! Nonna was in the kitchen and our breakfasts were good and the dinners fabulous. We had a wonderful lemon pasta made from the lemons hanging on the trees of the property. The pasta was one of the culinary highlights of our month in Sicily.

We wish we had been at the Agriturismo in the Spring or Summer when we could have taken advantage of the outdoor space. Unfortunately, the heater in the room was just not enough to keep us warm. We realize that the cold could also have been more severe due to the flooding of the brick floor. However, being a bit cold was balanced out by the wonderful food cooked in the restaurant.

We had one of the best dinners of our entire Italy trip here! it was also charming, rustic, and welcoming!

This was the most homely and inviting place to stay. The location is very quiet and peaceful. Definitely a wonderful experience.

Comfortable, beautiful, tasteful. Interesting history. Very good Calabrian food. Owner and staff were very friendly.
