At the feet of the Ibei mountains, in a valley carpeted with lemon groves stretching out towards the sea and the beautiful beaches of Fontane Bianche, lies the superb Sicilian country retreat of Hotel Lady Lusya.

This delightful property, in the heart of the Spingallo estate, occupies a villa originally built during the Bourbon age as home to a noble Sicilian family. The present owner, American born Lucy Giardina Truini, inherited the property from her Italian grandfather and has been responsible for the restoration and transformation in charming hotel of what, up until a few years ago, was the family home.

Those dining at the hotel's restaurant enjoy excellent traditional Sicilian cuisine and wines. Mealtimes at Hotel Lady Lusya are still very much a family affair; when Lucy, her father Santo, husband Piero and son Kris have the opportunity to converse with and entertain guests. On such occasions the hotel's talented chef has been known to divulge some of his culinary secrets'''.

Immersed in the peace and quiet of the countryside yet just 10 kilometers away from the vibrant city of Siracusa, Hotel Lady Lusya provides the perfect base for those wishing to visit Eastern Sicily, from mount Etna and Taormina to Capo Passero, and is open throughout the year.
