It has a very good location close to the beach and near the baroc cities. Scicli is only 10 km away and a beautiful place to visit! The BB itself had a great swimming pool and gives that extra feeling of a relaxing holiday. Nicola is a great host and gives you a very welcome feeling. He tries hard to answer all of your questions about places to visit. We also found it interesting that we could use the kitchen and Wifi. Beds were good and we got a good night sleep because the whole area is very quiet. We would definitely go back next time we visit Sicily! Thanks again Nicola for a great stay!

It all starts with a friendly and helpful welcome of Nicola and it finishes with a feeling of being really relaxed. The room is clean. The beds are firm and good. Although we like swimming more in the sea, the pool comes in very handy if you have small kids. In the surroundings of Cava d'Agila there is more than enough to do see and do. In short, we loved our stay! ##### Natalia D.

Se dovessi scrivere tutto ciò che penso della mia esperienza alla Villa "U Marchisi", correrei il rischio di fare una bella "sviolinata"! In effetti, è stata un'esperienza riuscitissima che ripeterei oggi stesso: location stupenda, management simpatico e disponibile! Perfino le donne delle pulizie sono diventate una traccia indelebile della meravigliosa estate passata alla Villa! Che spero di ripetere... facebook.com/pino.gulino ##### Pino G.

Ottima accoglienza da pare di Nicola, il titolare. Molto belle le camere arredate con gusto e molto funzionali. Ottima la colazione (sempre diversa). Le spiagge vicine sono bellissime e i paesi raggiungibili con facilità sono tra i più belli di questa zona della sicilia. Solo per citarne alcuni: Ragusa, Modica, Noto, Scicli. Stupendo. Ci toprneremo ##### aldo v.

Una nota a parte merita la colazione, sempre varia, abbondante e fresca, insomma ottima ospitalità, il sig. NICOLA sempre cortese e premuroso, unica pecca la posizione a 500 mt. Dal mare ma non facilissimo da trovare per chi arriva la prima volta. ##### luciano n.

Il mio fine settimana è stato perfetto. Il posto ideale per visitare la sicilia orientale tra mare, storia e cultura. A due passi dal mare e con una piscina confortevolissima, personale attento alle esigenze dei clienti, colazione ricca e di ottima qualità. Tutte le località balneari sono raggiungibili agevolmente, da marina di Ragusa fino a Marina di Modica. Inoltre è facilissimo visitare tutto il barocco siciliano da Noto a Ragusa Ibla, passando da Ispica, Modica e Scicli, il tutto nel raggio massimo di 25 km (10 min di macchina). Grazie Nicola! saluti, Salvo Pipitone. ##### 701ewmFu9BiWGJb5w+Xyg0WKBHablCOqTcrjm1fOlT3iqb2pLgxgSY9lPV0AqWYn 7.

Gruppo di amici. Siamo un gruppo di amici che è stato ospite al b&b Marchisi per una settimana. L'ospitalità è stata ottima. Nicola, il proprietario, si è dimostrato sempre attento alle nostre esigenze e sempre prodigo di preziosi consigli sulle spiagge da visitare e i locali in cui andare a cena. La struttura è ben tenuta, le camere, una diversa dall'altra, sono arredate con gusto e pulite. La piscina è immersa in un bel giardino a disposizione degli ospiti. Comodissimo il parcheggio privato. La colazione è stata di ottima qualità e con vasta scelta. E' stato un bel soggiorno! Grazie Nicola e speriamo di rivederci!

Everything was as described and clean, Nicola was charming and very helpful. I would recommend this place without hesitation, although I agree with other reviewers who commented on the fact that there is a lack of nice eating places close by. Nicola recommends places in Scicli, which were good, and we also ate in a couple of nights by using the shared kitchen. ##### Caroline B.

In conclusione, un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo per cui ringraziamo Michele e speriamo di tornare in futuro. Mara e Paolo ##### Paolo C.

The setting is charming and the neighbourhood quiet and classy. You can actually walk or drive (5 minutes) to the lovely beach of Cava d'Aliga. We swam on both days of our stay there, and even though local people thought it was too cold, the sea and the weather were perfect for us Parisian tourists... We were happy to have a kitchen to prepare our own food as we were travelling round Sicily and getting tired of restaurants. There were also supplies in the kitchen, like olive oil, etc... The stay was hospitable. Nicola will make you feel at home in a relaxed manner and will give you any information you need about the region. We had nice local pastries and fresh fruit for breafast, but unfortunately Nicola's mother was away during our stay and so we will have to wait until our next visit to taste her legendary cakes... We recommend! ##### Sukic C.

Our room was spacious and clean and comfortable. There is also a communal kitchen for guests to use, with all facilities for self-catering if required. We sampled some delicious pastries at breakfast each day, and there was always fruit and cereals available, although for us,we would have liked to have some savoury items such as plain rolls and cheese/meat for a change. We appreciate that this is a Sicilian custom. The villa is set in a beautiful garden with a pool; unfortunately, it was not considered hot enough to be open when we were there, as May seems to be the usual start time, but it looked inviting. The sandy beach is just 10 mins walk away, downhill. Nicola was welcoming and helpful with information and anything that we needed and we thought the rate was good value. We felt that we were treated as valued guests and friends and would be pleased to recommend a stay here. ##### Mike Reynolds This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### QzRg/J9lMPivB/fiRo2nhLA5K/M9wqnMc4FWpgMDqHF3ZFLdUkeWYAsVXnZ8GHeY Q. 8 May 2012 #### Un pre-vacanza serena e deliziosa Siamo stati al B&B "U Marchisi" per 5 giorni per godere del primo sole caldo della Sicilia. Il B&B è un casolare in pietra ristrutturato, ben curato e molto pulito, con un ampio spazio esterno dove trovano posto molteplici piante ed un bellissimo albero di nespole che possono essere raccolte e assaggiate al momento in tutta la loro naturalissima dolcezza. Il casolare si trova in una posizione ideale sia per raggiungere il mare che per fare escursioni nei paesi del barocco siciliano. Scicli, Modica Avola, Pachino, Noto, Ragusa, Donnalucata e Sampieri sono gli splendidi paesi di cui abbiamo potuto vivere le spiagge, i centri e gustato le buonissime specialità culinarie. La stanza che abbiamo occupato era accogliente e confortevole, pulita e arredata con mobili semplici dai colori tenui ed allo stesso tempo caldi. La colazione è stata ottima. il proprietario, Nicola, ci faceva trovare ogni mattina dolci e cornetti davvero buoni........mitici i cornetti con la ricotta!!! La bellezza, la tranquillità e la natura che si godono in questo B&B già basterebbero a rendere il soggiorno perfetto, ma la vera differenza la fa Nicola che con i suoi modi semplici, discreti e cordiali rappresenta un punto di riferimento serio ed affidabile. Se cercate un posto tranquillo dove trascorrere un piacevole soggiorno in un contesto ospitale e familiare, questo B&B è proprio il posto giusto. Noi sicuramente ci ritorneremo. Grazie Nicola per tutte le dritte culinarie e i consigli vari che ci hai fornito. ##### QzRg/J9lMPivB/fiRo2nhLA5K/M9wqnMc4FWpgMDqHF3ZFLdUkeWYAsVXnZ8GHeY Q.

Breakfast was delicious (including typical food and selfmade cake each morning), our room was clean and nicely arranged, and the garden with the pool helped a lot to enjoy our stay. Many thanks to Nicola and his family who did a great job in putting up this place! ##### Urs B. ---
