Masseria Susafa

Most magical place in Sicily!

Stunning views in very comfortable country inn. We travelled with friends in Sicily and Southern Italy by car. Our most important tip is: DO NOT USE GPS. We prebooked all of our accommodations and every one sent us directions on how to get there. To our peril, we ignored their directions and relied on a Garmin GPS plus the GPS in our rental car. It turns out that most of Italy is not on GPS. It is very important that you follow the directions provided by your host to avoid getting lost as we did! We were hopelessly lost and travelled the back roads usually used by tractors in pouring rain. We finally arrived and what a delight! Despite all of the rain we experienced while at Masseria Susafa, we loved everything about this place! Friendly staff, cleans rooms, gorgeous views and beautiful grounds. The breakfasts were plentiful and very tasty. We ate dinner there twice, it was good but not as good as at other hotels in the same category. If dinner time meals were improved a bit this place would be outstanding.

We stayed 7 nights here for our honeymoon and had a mixed experience. The service from Martha, Ita, Francesca, Giuseppe, Michaela and every staff member was excellent—always helpful, kind, and professional. The property itself is beautiful, offering a peaceful, rustic atmosphere with stunning landscapes. However, while it’s common for upscale places to offer honeymoon perks, none were provided here. Although the hotel is adults-only, the owner’s children were at the pool one day during our stay. The owner’s dog, Bruno, is very well cared for, but sadly, Bruno’s two puppies were kept in poor, cruel conditions under the sun. As for the food, it was good but noy amazing. Lunch is €30 and lacks any protein, with the mostly the same menu offered daily. Dinner had a good menu, but the portions were extremely small. Wine pours, both at the bar and during meals, were very small, especially for the price. The pool also needed better maintenance. Overall, a beautiful place with room for improvement.
