With its impeccable use of soft-hued, honeyed Modica limestone and its sense of place, Alba a Noto subtly evokes and deftly pays homage to the sumptuous baroque architecture of the surrounding towns. And yet, with its clean-lined design, its uncluttered spaces, its sophisticated 21st-century comforts, and its serene sea-view infinity pool, it is very much of its own age.

The Area
Alba a Noto rises in a wonderfully panoramic position in the rolling hills just outside the fascinating baroque town of Noto and close to the beautiful nature reserve of Vendicari.
Noto is the most easterly of a chain of baroque towns now protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is perhaps the most perfect of all and was rebuilt in flamboyant style following a major earthquake in 1693. Vendicari Nature Reserve boasts some of the finest sandy beaches in Sicily, some of which are pleasingly under populated even in the height of summer. Vendicari is also home to thousands of migrating birds, including flamingos, and sea turtles nest on its beaches.
If hiking in the hills is your thing, then there is some spectacular scenery in the rushing streams and waterfalls of Cassibile and at the Paleolithic burial sites in the dramatic valley of Pantalica.
Syracuse is just half an hour's drive away, and a day there is highly recommended to anybody spending time at Alba a Noto. A little further afield, the other baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa, Scicli, and Palazzolo Acreide (this latter with an impressive Greek archaeological site) are all easily reachable.
