Overview
Scicli is a baroque jewel of a town in the south-east corner of Sicily and right at its heart, echoing the sumptuous curves and ornate intricacies of its surroundings, is Palazzo Hedone, a treasure trove bursting with charme, joie di vivre and panache. Subtle French design blends seamlessly with Sicilian baroque flair while a tangy twist of Moroccan exoticism completes the heady cocktail, creating a truly voluptuous and, as the name suggests, hedonistic atmosphere...

Shared areas
At the heart of Palazzo Hedone is the elegant pool, whose glass roof may be opened or closed depending on the weather! A series of salons and seating area run through the structure, leading up to the fantastic panoramic roof-top terrace, the perfect spot for an aperitif before heading out for dinner...
The Area
Palazzo Hedone is ideally situated both for trips to the sea (10 minutes’ drive away in Sampieri, though there are many other beaches along the coast within easy driving distance) and to some of Sicily’s most beautiful towns: the UNESCO-protected Baroque pearls of Scicli, Modica, Ragusa and Noto. Siracusa is also within easy driving distance as are the quiet beaches of the Nature Reserve at Vendicari.
Slightly further afield is Catania, Taormina and Mount Etna.
