Agriturismo Terrauzza sul Mare, nestled in the serene greenery and overlooking the beautiful coast of the Ionian Sea, is the perfect spot for those in search of a relaxing vacation immersed in nature and by the sea. Located on the Plemmirio promontory, an area rich in history, this establishment enjoys a prime location just 8 km from Syracuse and 22 km from Noto, both recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Passionately managed by Renata and Giuseppe, the agriturismo offers accommodations in nine air-conditioned apartments, fully equipped and ideal for couples or families. Each apartment consists of a bedroom, an entrance with a kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and a private outdoor space. Guests can enjoy the tranquility of the garden and the fragrances of the surrounding countryside, especially in spring, which enhances the overall experience. The sea, accessible directly from the property via a tree-lined path of about 350 meters, features an unspoiled rocky beach located within the Plemmirio Marine Protected Area, boasting clear and warm waters. Just a kilometer to the south lie the beautiful beaches of Vendicari and San Lorenzo, perfect for sand lovers.

In addition to its natural beauty, the agriturismo offers a unique cultural experience through an artistic ceramics workshop run by owner Renata. Mrs. Emmolo, with her expertise and passion, organizes terracotta drawing courses for guests, allowing them to explore the art of Sicilian ceramics. The workshop, located in a former barn, also serves as an important showcase for the owner's works, which are often displayed in local and international exhibitions, including the Milan Expo.

The 11-hectare farm is fully operational, producing field vegetables, lemons, and olive oil, which guests can purchase directly. Although the agriturismo does not provide a dining service, a trattoria-pizzeria is just 100 meters away, and other seaside restaurants can be reached within minutes. Additionally, there are supermarkets and grocery stores nearby.

For hiking enthusiasts, the agriturismo’s location makes it easy to visit several natural reserves, including Cava Grande and Pantalica, the Vendicari oasis, and Capo Passero, as well as the baroque towns of Noto, Palazzolo Acreide, and Modica. The proximity to the Greek theater of Syracuse also offers the chance to attend the famous Classical Performances.

Terrauzza sul Mare is an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat, as well as for those wanting to explore the rich history and culture of Sicily, all while enjoying the natural beauty of an enchanting and timeless place.

Rooms and Rates

Although Agriturismo Terrauzza sul Mare does not provide a traditional breakfast service, guests are still welcomed warmly with a welcome corner inside the apartments. Here, coffee, sugar, toasted bread, and homemade jam are available, adding an authentic local touch to start the day. Guests can also take advantage of fresh produce from the farm, such as seasonal fruit and olive oil, to enhance their breakfast in a simple and natural way. Just 100 meters from the agriturismo, a trattoria-pizzeria offers typical Sicilian dishes, perfect for those looking to begin their day with a hearty meal.
