Furci Siculo accommodation from NZ$137

The Residence Annunziata is positioned 35 kilometres away from the heart of Furci Siculo. Another hotel is the Hotel Company, which is situated 20 kilometres away. Other alternatives worth looking into include the Town House Messina Paradiso and the Cinquecento B&B.

The greater Sicily area is certainly worth spending some time in also. Sicily is blessed with rural landscapes, beaches and rivers, along with common Sicily sights like the ruins. Common activities in this part of Italy include snowboarding, skiing and cross-country skiing.

Don't skedaddle before you have checked out the Palazzo dei Congressi, Palazzo Corvaja and Badia Vecchia in Taormina. The Sant Alphio Garden Hotel & Spa and Atahotel Naxos Beach are a few of the great short and long-stay options in Taormina. 19 kilometres to the south of Furci Siculo, you'll also find Giardini Naxos, which is home to the Castello San Marco Charming Hotel & Spa and Antico Borgo. If you're staying in Giardini Naxos, make sure you visit the Recanati Beach and Archaeological Museum.

Before you head home, why not spend an afternoon hanging out with fellow sports obsessives at a local game? Angelo Massimino Stadium is 55 kilometres to the south of Furci Siculo. The Romano Palace Luxury Hotel and the NH Catania Parco Degli Aragonesi are both good options if you want to really get into your sport.

If you're flying into or out of Strait of Messina Airport and are looking to stay nearby, try the Grand Hotel Excelsior or the B&B H24.
