Icona's Costa Ragusa Resort

Amazing location, staff, resort and amenities. 5 star all of the way! We have traveled for years and stayed in Aman resorts, Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, Como, etc., and Icona Ragusa is more comparable to an Aman in privacy and luxury. Do not listen to the bad reviews as room prices were low upon opening and clearly some riff raff booked and expected 2 star on property prices. Complete seclusion and a beautiful, private beach with calm, clear water for miles. The GM and employees are incredibly trained and attentive and there for any request. The beds and large, fluffy towels are a dream and no detail is spared - turn down service thoughtfully done with slippers and water bottles awaiting alongside bed. Food and cocktails were delicious and they had a range of top shelf liquors, including tequilas which are hard to find in Sicily. Despite the resort being almost empty, they had a fabulous piano player in the evenings. If you visit Agrigento and Taormina, a must stop for a couple days of calm serenity with no crowds. RUN to book before it is discovered. You won’t be sorry!
