Hotel La Corte del Sole

We first discovered Corte del Sole in 2018, and this September we returned for our fourth stay at this beautiful hotel - with every visit, it feels more and more like home.|What makes Corte del Sole so special are the people. The staff is not only warm, attentive, and deeply committed - over the years, they have become true friends. It feels almost impossible to simply call them “staff”; they are part of our Sicilian experience, the reason we keep coming back.||Each morning begins with a smile. At breakfast we are warmly welcomed by Antonella, whose kindness and radiant personality are truly inspiring. The buffet offers a wide variety of Italian delicacies, and for us especially, a wonderful selection of gluten-free treats, from Cassatina and Cannolo to gluten-free bread. José also makes sure that every guest feels completely cared for. Even during our very first visits, he impressed us with his presence, professionalism, and experience. He is the perfect host - attentive, charming, and speaking excellent, almost accent-free German. Whether at the bar or during breakfast, Antonella and José make every moment feel special and unique.||Franco, who manages the night shift, also adds to this sense of comfort. If you start your day with an early workout around seven in the morning, you’ll always find him there to greet you with a friendly smile. He is approachable, helpful, and always makes you feel comfortable, even in the earliest hours.||Dinner at the hotel’s own restaurant Le Muse, however, is the absolute highlight. The Sicilian creations of the two chefs Rosario and Lorenzo are absolutely outstanding. They always accommodate our gluten-free requests with ease, using many ingredients harvested directly from the hotel’s own garden. Every dish is a true feast for the senses.||The evenings are made unforgettable by the statt of the restaurant Le Muse, especially Sebastiano. We have known him for many years now, and he always remembers us and our preferences. With his charming, caring personality, his attentiveness, and his instinct for offering us the very best table, he turns every dinner into something truly special. He is the perfect host – dining with him feels less like a restaurant visit and more like an evening spent with friends. Thank you, Sebastiano, for your warm hospitality and the unforgettable evenings – you are truly one of a kind!|And of course, Carmelo, the sommelier, completes the experience. With passion, deep knowledge, and a fine sense for detail, he selects the perfect wine for every dish, sharing fascinating stories about its origin and character. No wish is ever left unfulfilled.||Beyond its people, Corte del Sole is a stunning ancient Masseria turned hotel where peace and relaxation abound. The entire property is impeccably maintained, with great attention to detail in every corner. The rooms are beautifully equipped, always spotlessly clean, and pleasantly air-conditioned. The large pool, paired with excellent bar service, is a true delight, and the beach can easily be reached on foot. Everything here – from the location to the atmosphere – comes together perfectly.||For us, Corte del Sole is far more than just a hotel – it simply is the best place to be in Sicily. We always stay for two weeks, and yet it never feels long enough. One thing is certain: we will return very soon and are already looking forward to it.

This beautiful property near Noto city offers a delightful experience with its relaxing design and delicious homemade, healthy dishes. The front office team is exceptionally helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay. Just a 5-minute drive from Lido and the beach, it's perfectly situated for enjoying the local scenery. The breakfast was absolutely fantastic-homemade bread, cheese, cakes.Because of the breakfast and positive energy we extended our stay one more night.The service during breakfast can improve and the restaurant team should engage more with the guests.Christina from the bar was very welcoming and interacted with us, presenting the menu in a very professional way. Strongly recommend the hotel .

Spent a wonderful three days in this beautiful hotel which is full of character. We enjoyed one of the superior upstairs rooms with a balcony to take in the fantastic views.

From the moment we arrived and were offered chilled water with fresh mint and lemon, from their grounds, I knew we were in for a treat. There are so many good things to write about this hotel - the comfortable rooms, the great breakfast served with welcoming smiles and a view across the valley towards the sea, the peaceful pool area and its location. It is a short drive from Noto and some lovely beaches. We enjoyed Lido di Noto, La Marchesa and San Lorenzo.|But here’s the thing - the people who work here are all the loveliest, friendliest, most helpful you can imagine. They work tirelessly to make sure your holiday is a good one.|And for this, we are thankful and look forward to returning.|Grazie mille.|Chris, Elena, Igor and Tabby.

Wonderful location in the middle of the countryside with unspoiled views in all directions. Enjoyed the bird song every morning! Staff were a joy and couldn't have been more accommodating and willing to please. Restaurant was excellent and affordable with a new specials menu every day. We also enjoyed the swimming pool bar which served drinks and lovely salads. Walking distance to several stunning beaches-|Eloro ( 15 minutes walk) wild and we practically had the beach to ourselves! Recommend taking an umbrella as no shelter.|Lido de Notto ( 30 minutes walk or free transfer from hotel) Equally lovely beach and swimming but with additional sun loungers and restaurants.|We didn't have a car and transfer from hotel to Noto is quite pricey so would recommend hiring a car if you want to explore the local towns as no bus services nearby. Thoroughly recommend La Corte del Sole for a truly relaxing Sicilian holiday.

We had a wonderful week here! The hotel is beautiful and very well maintained. The staff were amazing, so attentive, hard working and friendly. We ate in the restaurant on 4 occasions and the food was delicious! My husband especially enjoyed the sicilian fillet steak. Our only small issue was it did advertise a shuttle bus on the website but this wasn't available during our stay which meant for us we did lots of walking or paid for taxis as the location is very remote.|That being said we would visit again in a heart beat, especially for the magnificent breakfast which filled you up for the day!
