Lovely place just beside the beach
Just got back from our holiday in Sicily. We stayed in this lovely place for two weeks. When we arrived we were greeted by the owners and shown around where everything was. The place is spotless and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday.
This is a spacious property with large kitchen/dining room, 2 bedrooms (the main one air conditioned), sitting room and a good size bathroom. The property has a heated outside shower so you won't be dragging sand around. There is a patio overlooking a beautifully designed garden where we used to sit in the evening relaxing and drinking a glass or two of wine. We were given fresh bed clothes and towels during our two week stay.
The beach is only 30 m away, it is sandy and the sea deepens gradually so is very safe for kids. We did some snorkeling around the rocks and saw a lot of fish. That was fun! There were 4 windy days while we were there so our 12 year old son did a bit of surfing! There is surf rental place on the beach.
Every morning around 9 am a bread van and a fish van come to the private road where the house is so you will be spoiled for choice.
Punta Braccetto is a small quiet place. Perfect for relaxing holiday. There are 2 small shops in walking distance away. There are also bigger supermarkets about 10 minutes drive. You have a choice of 2 pizzerias, "Lo Chalet" restaurant and a trendy bar at the end of the main street of Punta Bruccetto where you can get an assortment of different cocktails and watch a beautiful sunset. A five minute drive away there is a small town of Punta Secca which has different restaurants and bars. Our favorite was "Sands" designer restaurant which specializes in seafood.
If you are into the history of the island you would not be disappointed if you visit Scicli, Ragusa and Modica to name but a few.
Overall we would highly recommend this property and it's lovely owners who did everything they could to make sure our holiday was rememberable. We would love to come back!!!
