Casa di Melo - Organic Country Hotel

Facilities, decor, staff, great pool

Nothing

The place is calm and staff is super friendly. We loved the fact that everything was organic and tasty and they were really considerate about food waste. We had a suite which was beautiful with a really nice balcony.

We thought some sun umbrellas were missing at the pool.

Alberto and his team make you feel at home. The atmosphere at Casa di Melo is great. The scenery is beautiful. We enjoyed the massages given by Ilse. She is excellent! It's our preferred place to stay in Sicilia.

The comfort of the bathroom. The toilet seat was not properly secured. There were no hooks for hanging towels in the bathroom.

Peaceful location, very pretty surroundings with nice greenery and a beautiful pool. Very relaxing to stay, with comfortable beds. The rooms are beautiful and arguably unusual (in a good way). The bath was massive, the furniture was great; staff were friendly and kind, but service was a bit slow. Fabulous fresh water pool which is a great place to watch the sunset. Drinks were delicious (fresh OJ at breakfast, and drinks to order from the bar).

Drinks' menu and snacks menu: limited, whilst they could make things on spot, it is sometimes nicer to select from menu to make it even easier; weird to have crisps/tortilla chips as the snacks to go with the drink on an organic farm - we asked for olives and they were tinned/jarred; would've been nice to have crudités and other snacks. Underwhelming food: not quite as advertised and not like old reviews (though it sounds like the menu changes daily). Breakfast: not fresh watermelon and no other fruit; yoghurt per request only (i.e. nothing self serve except some shop bought cereals), no eggs; disappointing coffee (cappuccino wass all foam) - people tend to come to agri farm for fresh and plentiful produce. Dinner: fusilli pesto pasta for main, carrot soup for start, and granita for dessert, while yummy it didn't feel worth the cost (EUR40!). Only one bottle of water in the fridge.
