Description

Eco Dimora Alimede, located just a short walk from the beautiful Punta Secca in the Santa Croce Camerina area of Ragusa, is the perfect choice for those seeking peace and a relaxing stay. Opened in 2014, this establishment provides a unique experience where nature, culture, and Sicilian tradition blend seamlessly. Its strategic location allows guests to explore the wonders of Sicilian Baroque, with cities like Ragusa, Modica, Scicli, and Noto just a few kilometers away, known for their beauty and as the backdrop for the hit TV series "Il Commissario Montalbano."
Surrounded by a well-maintained Mediterranean garden, the residence offers spacious rooms of about 30 square meters, each with a private entrance. Each accommodation features a double bedroom, a living room with a sofa bed, an ensuite bathroom, a veranda, and a garden. The spaces are tastefully decorated, combining comfort and style. Among the included amenities, guests can enjoy Wi-Fi in common areas, mountain bikes, beach umbrellas, sun loungers, and much more.

Special attention is given to sustainability. The facility is powered by renewable energy sources, utilizing photovoltaic and solar thermal systems, and adopts eco-friendly practices such as rainwater reuse for irrigation and the use of environmentally friendly detergents. Guests can thus enjoy a peaceful vacation that respects the environment.

Eco Dimora Alimede is also well connected to major points of interest in Sicily, from Ragusa to Catania, and from Syracuse to Agrigento, offering day trips to discover the region. Its proximity to the sea and natural reserves, such as the Irminio river estuary and Vendicari, makes this corner of Sicily even more enchanting.

To ensure a worry-free stay, the facility also provides a shuttle service to Catania and Comiso airports, as well as the option to rent bicycles. Guests will have the opportunity to relax, explore, and immerse themselves in Sicilian culture and traditions, making their vacation truly unforgettable.

Hey from Paola

Member since May 2014 | 25,478 hits

I have a countryside house
surrounded by carob trees, olive trees and pine trees.

In the evening,
the sirocco wind leaves a light breeze.

The noise of a motorbike
interrupts the silence.

A solitary gecko
hides in the wall.

The neighbor's rooster
marks the time in the morning.

Over there, I see the calm
and infinite blue sea.

My son Andrea.

This is the second year we are returning to this villa apartment. We have been very happy both with the location to reach the beach of Casuzze, which is 6 minutes away by car, and with the accommodation. At night, you can sleep without air conditioning.

The accommodation is well-kept and has all the necessary comforts for the stay. We stayed an entire week with four people, but I must admit that we were a bit cramped. It would be excellent for a couple. The location of the Alimede Ecodimora Mediterranea was strategic for both enjoying the beach (however, it requires a few minutes’ drive) and visiting the main cities in the area.

Really beautiful structure and very well kept, new and clean environments in a relaxing place. We had a great time also because of the proximity to the various places we planned to visit such as Scicli, Ragusa, and Modica, very close to the sea. We will also recommend it to people we know.

Alimede Ecodimora turned out to be an oasis of peace after the heat of the beach or visits to the sites witnessing the beauties of the Baroque. The apartment is equipped with every necessity, clean and comfortable. The small table placed outside allowed us to have breakfast and dinner among plants, flowers, and very cute kittens: the garden is a delight for the eyes. Paola and Giuseppe, friendly and discreet at the same time, were generous with information about beaches, recommended places to eat, and more. For all these qualities, the B&B is highly recommended. From the very close Punta Secca – the famous Marinella di Montalbano – a series of beaches to visit starts, but a holiday on the Iblean coast cannot be limited to the sea: Modica, Scicli, Donnafugata, and Ragusa Iblea are absolutely unmissable. A special mention goes to the Randello beach, extensive and wild, which guarantees splendid baths in tranquility.

B&B located in a beautiful countryside villa, well cared for in every detail, on the outskirts of the charming seaside village of Punta Secca. Cozy, clean apartment equipped with all comforts. The owners of the property are exquisite people, helpful and absolutely discreet towards the guests. I believe that the quality-price ratio is really excellent. For a holiday on the Iblean coast, it is the ideal place and we recommend it.

To meet our date needs, for the first three days we were welcomed in the apartment on the upper floor, very cozy and with a large covered terrace where you can relax and have dinner in full relaxation. Then with the help of the owner we moved to one of the two lower accommodations equally cozy and with a small outdoor patio. The kitchenette of the apartments is essential but sufficient for breakfast and quick meals. The furniture is new and well cared for and the garden surrounding the accommodations is meticulously kept and a joy to the eyes. By car you can reach many beaches and beautiful baroque cities like Syracuse, Ragusa, Noto, etc. The availability and kindness of the owners accompanied us during the holiday.

The accommodation is in an excellent location, ideal for discovering the Ragusa area and enjoying the beautiful sea. Almost a kilometer away, you can dive into the purity of a crystal-clear sea and from the fine sandy beach, then retreat immediately to the structure immersed in greenery and above all in tranquillity away from noises and the very busy confusion in the village of Punta Secca. The apartment is equipped with comforts, well-kept furnishings, extremely clean. Ideal for those looking for a well-kept accommodation. The kitchenette is essential and lends itself to the preparation of quick meals. It is worth noting the constant courtesy of the owners who, in addition to welcoming, provide valuable advice on the surrounding areas. We are satisfied with our stay at the property and recommend it to all those who want to relax by choosing to take culinary, cultural excursions, and at the same time pleasant days at the sea.

Me, my partner, and our nearly 5-year-old daughter stayed at Alimede Ecodimora Mediterranea for 6 days. We definitely recommend it. The property is brand new and meticulously cared for in every detail. The dining area is very minimal, so it's fine if you don't plan on having lunch or dinner at home all the time. It worked out great for us. More than enough to prepare some meals for our daughter and have a salad. The bathroom is stunning, the master bedroom is truly cozy and modern. The mattresses, both on the double bed and the sofa bed in the living area, are very comfortable. The outdoor area is very welcoming. There's a small table where you can have breakfast or dinner, in front of a beautiful and soft lawn. If you have children, it's a sufficient outlet for them to play a bit in the grass. If you have issues with cats, avoid the property. Our daughter loved them, and they were a pleasant presence for us, but as soon as we stepped out of the front door, the kittens would come to visit us. Final comment. We greatly appreciated those small but precious attentions that are truly rare and make a difference: finding the sponge for washing dishes, salt, oil, coffee, trash bags... especially when staying for a few days, they facilitate the stay. Excellent value for money.

B&B in a villa, nestled in the countryside, skillfully renovated by the owners who live nearby. We only stayed for 2 nights but the place definitely deserves a longer stay. It's a place where you really feel at home. It's a small apartment with a spacious living room, a very large bedroom, and a bathroom, all elegantly furnished, equipped with every comfort and with a beautiful garden around it, where breakfast is served. Peace and tranquility are guaranteed, but the social life of Punta Secca or Marina di Ragusa is very close. The beaches that can be easily reached are all beautiful and suitable for all tastes, from fine sandy ones to rocky ones where the sea is truly crystal clear. The owners are very friendly and willing to fulfill every request, so much so that upon arrival they ask you what you prefer for breakfast. A place to recommend to friends.

The owners and managers are discreet gentlemen, extremely kind and available to search for and provide all the information requested to plan the holiday. The room, or rather the two-room apartment, made available, is perfect even for medium-long stays, perfectly furnished and equipped with everything that may be needed, perfectly clean and tidy. The breakfast, served on the veranda or in the living room, is varied and abundant. Highly recommended, even to ourselves, and we hope to return!

Simply perfect. New, modern and functional structure with a splendid garden attached and independent entrance. Despite being immersed in the typical countryside of Ragusa, it is practically a stone's throw from the beaches, archaeological ruins, and the beautiful urban centers of baroque inspiration of Modica, Scicli, and Ragusa. It is located on the road that connects Santa Croce Camerina to Punta Secca, about two kilometers away, and is easily reachable from the nearby Comiso airport. Special appreciation goes to the managers for their friendliness, discretion, and valuable suggestions.

A fantastic botanical garden immersed in the countryside just five minutes from the charming Punta Secca. The silence and tranquility provide incredible and pleasant company, especially for those who are used to the chaos of the city. The attentions of Mrs. Paola and her husband Giuseppe reveal an old-fashioned approach; always attentive and available for any need. We will not easily forget this wonderful vacation.
