I found all four of these images on Trip Advisor. They were taken by previous visitors to the VOI Aranella resort south of Syracuse in Sicily. Checking out reviews and photos on Trip Advisor can be a very helpful thing to do before you travel somewhere. However, I am always very wary of reviews posted by people who have only ever left that one review. I mean - why? Single reviews tend to gush with positivity and praise.
The low rise nature of the accommodation appealed to us. See above. The units are well spread out over a rural campus of ten acres.
The resort is close to the sea. The beach below will be about five hundred yards from our door...
And even closer, by a rocky cove, the resort people have erected lounging platforms with steps down into the sea. We must remember our diving shoes - bought for previous sunshine holidays...
Our reservation includes "Half Board" - breakfast and evening meal. Here's an images of a desserts table taken by a previous guest....
We will be flying out of Manchester Airport on Friday afternoon - not at some ungodly hour in the morning. However, I am guessing that we won't reach the VOI Arenella until the evening dinner service is done so we may end up going to bed hungry. Snacks in our suitcases should help us to avoid starvation.
