Vacation rentals in Acate

Grazie Ugo! Great southern Sicily location with no tourists....except us. Easy walk to the many pizzerias. Also a short drive to several wineries. We loved the two nights in Acate walking and enjoyed meeting the local families during dinner. We also walked the castle square and historic church. Really enjoyed our stay!

This house was beyond our expectations - it’s more like a mansion than a house. It’s on an amazing property, private with a lush garden, patios in all directions and it overlooks the ocean and the nearby castle! We were three families who shared this house and it had the perfect setup with the 5 bedrooms almost mimicking three minor apartments / wings, offering privacy for all. The shared spaces; living room, dining room and kitchen were all super cozy, well lit, and had all amenities. We are so happy we booked this house for our stay exploring southern Sicily! Alessandra was super communicative and an excellent host.

The location and views do not disappoint from this apartment. The space felt open and clean and the patio was a great place to enjoy the view and wine late at night. Ragusa ibla and superior were very easy to walk to and it was easy to get out of the city to visit the surrounding wineries. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to explore the area.

Perfect - we loved it!

A Magical Stay in Nature’s Embrace I stayed at this peaceful ranch with my dog, and it was pure bliss. The garden is beautifully nurtured and full of life — you truly feel one with nature here. It’s quiet, serene, and gives you that “natural high” feeling. The hosting family is incredibly kind and welcoming. They offer fresh eggs daily and even surprised me with a freshly baked loaf of bread on the first morning — such a thoughtful touch that made me feel right at home. My dog loved the open space, and I loved the calm. Having a car is essential, but once you're there, you’ll want to stay put and soak in the magic. I’m already looking forward to returning in autumn! Highly recommend — peaceful, heartwarming, and unforgettable.

We spent 6 nights and it was a lovely relaxing spot.When you read the listing details, be aware the host is not exaggerating when they say there are dirt and gravel roads to get to the property so long as you drive slow and aren't in a sports car you will manage the final part of the journey. Do not let that put you off, the location is off the beaten track peaceful. Giuseppa and her extendedfamily could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We were even surprised by our supper on arrival ( we arrived fairly late)Pizza from her sister's restaurant. The grounds are large and well maintained with plenty of space for children to run around and explore and play. The pool and water pistols were a big hit with our grandson. The hot tub was enjoyed by his parents. All in all a private spot for relaxing and enjoying family time. We as a family recommend this place.

We spent a brilliant week here with our kids (11 and 13) and, although we had plans to explore more of the area, the moment we arrived, we didn’t want to leave. The house has a calm, welcoming feel that instantly puts you in holiday mode. Aside from a day trip to Syracuse, we were more than happy staying close. Pozzallo, a 5 min short drive away, has an incredible gelateria right on the beach. And just a stroll from the house is The Lampana, where we dined on many occasions. The food is fantastic, and the owner speaks perfect english. The house itself is spotless, beautifully designed, and so well thought out. USB ports by every bed. A few practical tips: there’s no house manual, so ask all questions when you arrive. Rubbish needs to be taken to a local point, and remember to save cash for the tourist tax at checkout. But honestly - book it. The view takes your breath away! The pool was a joy, worth getting it heated (30 degrees) if you plan on using it a lot.

Giani is a wonderful person and has a beautiful house. When we arrived my wife was not feeling well (bad food two days earlier). He connected us quickly to a doctor and what a difference that made for our vacation. The house is clean, the deck is amazing, the bed is comfortable. There are two bathrooms and two showers. The house is on two floors and as you read is situated between the two towns. It’s easy to get to either town. Ragusa Superior is 15 min and you only have to climb 40% of the stairs. Ragusa Ibla is downhill and then follow a gentile road to the square. The wonky challenge I see for some are the stairs from the bottom of Ragusa Ibla to the house but they are not bad at all. This place is paradise and Gianni is like a saint. Thank you Gianni!
