Location and distances


Villa Cutrera is located in a residential area in the countryside with extensive vineyards and olive groves and many other native products such as grapes that ripen under the typical greenhouses of the area. Its location is ideal for getting to know the south-eastern part of Sicily characterised by numerous small authentic towns of historical interest. Chiaramonte Gulfi, just 10 minutes away by car, is defined as the Balcony of Sicily due to its magnificent panoramic position. This beautiful borgo, set on the Iblei Mountains, is just 15 km from Ragusa and is renowned for its cuisine, for the production of olive oil and for its many museums. At the table, the local wines served are Nero d'Avola, Insolia and Cerasuolo di Vittoria. Pork is the specialty of the place but its cheeses are also among the best on the island. The delightful towns to visit in the area are countless, and include the best of Sicilian Baroque, as well as places made famous by “Inspector Montalbano” such as Ragusa, Modica e Scicli and Punta Secca. Ragusa is divided into two parts: Ragusa Superiore and Ragusa Ibla. Imposing Baroque is the unifying trait of the two souls. The rivalry between the two social classes that rebuilt the town enabled a doubly sumptuous town to grow and today Ragusa Superiore displays the elegant Baroque and the orderly modernity of shops and palaces. Below, Ragusa Ibla recalls its medieval past and flaunts Baroque magnificence. In less than half an hour you can explore the enchanting historic town centre of Modica: houses, Baroque palaces and grandiose churches follow each other on the sides of the hills. Scicli, a World Heritage Site, cannot be missed: the town centre with its picturesque architecture, sea blue colour and thousand year-old traditions which today are manifested in the cuisine, in the festivals and in the spirit of the inhabitants. Punta Secca, the fishing village on the Mediterranean Sea enjoys notoriety due to fiction: scenes were filmed here at the restaurant of Enzo a Mare while the house of Montalbano overlooks the beach. The restaurants along the seafront create the right atmosphere for those wishing to enjoy a few days at the beach or to just stroll and admire the beautiful sunsets. Just 500 m away is a pizzeria, a supermarket and a butcher's shop while, for any other needs, you can go to Chiaramonte Gulfi. Regarding the beach, less than 45 minutes away is Marina di Ragusa, an elegant seaside town with numerous fresh fish restaurants, excellent pastries and long beaches of fine sand.

The villa was beautiful and catered very well for our mixed age family group. The extra touches left for us ( milk, fresh vegetables, bread, wine) was very welcome and there was nothing we needed we couldn’t find. I would highly recommend this villa.

We value your feedback to improve the services provided by Emma Villas.
The villa was beautiful and catered very well for our mixed age family group. The extra touches left for us ( milk, fresh vegetables, bread, wine) was very welcome and there was nothing we needed we couldn’t find. I would highly recommend this villa.
