Unequivocally everything perfect.

Staying at the delightful Sempreverde Atelier B&B for 15 days was a pleasant experience. The owners, Licia and Giuseppe, dedicate themselves with passion and dedication to their work. They take care of their guests even before arrival, sending a message to inquire about the journey and asking for the expected arrival time, in order to be ready to welcome you. During check-in and check-out, parking is allowed on their driveway next to the front door, a much appreciated opportunity. We were greeted by Licia, who welcomed us barefoot, showing her attachment to the territory with a smile and kindness that make you feel in the right place. The next morning at breakfast, we met Giuseppe, equally kind, courteous, smiling, and helpful. The property is delightful and well-maintained both externally and internally. The Sempreverde website is beautifully designed and allows you to discover all the details of each environment, offering the possibility of taking a virtual tour that reveals almost everything. The atelier is enchanting, rich in furnishings details and with a wonderful French door overlooking a garden. The terrace with sea view and lighthouse view, surrounded by well-kept plants, a nice swing, and more, where breakfast is served, is another strength. Every morning, freshly baked bread by Mamma Pia, who also offers her sweets, jams, and cakes, each day different. If you are lucky enough to also meet dad Gino, another beautiful person of this wonderful family, you may have the privilege of taking a nice tour with his boat to discover other corners of paradise and to take a dip in the deep blue waters. There is also a purifier that dispenses natural, sparkling, or slightly sparkling water, avoiding the need to buy heavy water bottles. Additionally, there is a corner on the ground floor where you can store your umbrella and sunbeds without having to carry them to your room. Finally, there is an outdoor shower to remove sand from your feet once back from the beach, avoiding soiling the inside. The rooms and all environments are always very clean and always have a nice scent, giving a pleasant feeling of well-being and hygiene. The eco-friendly vocation is also noticeable when you realize that the shutters of the room balconies are equipped with sensors that deactivate the air conditioner if the shutter is open. The old-style bell with a cord next to the atelier's front door to announce your arrival is adorable. Not to forget the location of this little corner of paradise, a stone's throw from the beach and all the beauties that Punta Secca offers. What can I say, going on vacation to your heart's place and feeling at home. We will certainly return in the coming years with the joy of meeting again two other guest couples, Paola and Tiziano, Barbie and Ken, to whom we have grown fond.

We were looking for a small coastal town with easy beach access and a few good places to eat. Sempreverde turned out to be a beautifully eco-designed building with great rooms and a wonderful rooftop terrace in a good coastal location. But the host also created a really lovely atmosphere among the guests and with her family, who help out at the B and B. The breakfast was wonderful with all sorts of high-quality food characteristic of the area and, especially, cakes homemade by the host's mother. We had a boat ride with her father that was one of the best experiences of our trip. It introduced us to the nearby forest reserve which was a great place for a relaxing beach day. Sempreverde accommodation has everything you may need and they are thoughtful and welcoming people. Excellent!

Staying at Sempreverde Atelier is like being at home. Unfortunately, we only stayed for 5 days but the harmony that was created with Licia and Beppe was immediate. The rooms as well as the common areas are cozy and full of creativity. The terrace, where Licia and Beppe (together with the cats Marcello and Frida), welcomed us every morning for breakfast, which was always rich and varied, was delightful. We fondly remember the scent of warm bread from mom Pia. The location of the bed and breakfast is strategic. It allows you to visit the most beautiful cities and beaches of the southeastern coast. Expect us because we will definitely come back! Licia and Mauro.

Courtesy and complete availability. The best welcome a guest could hope for. We returned yesterday from a short vacation in Punta Secca, with expectations significantly lower than what actually materialized. Licia and Giuseppe were extremely kind from the first phone call, they put us in the best possible condition, offering us the use of sun loungers and umbrellas and more importantly they allowed us to park the motorcycle in a covered space inside the structure, which would have otherwise been left outside unattended, all without any extra charge. The structure is new, furnished with taste and creativity by Licia herself. Very varied breakfast with typical homemade Sicilian sweets (top!), served on the terrace. Lastly, even though check-out was already done, to let us make the most of our last hours of vacation, they provided us with a personal shower. What can I say, thank you Licia and thank you Giuseppe, we will definitely come back.

Kind and helpful staff, beautiful and very comfortable location.

We had already stayed here 4 years ago. Like then, I can only confirm the authenticity of the words describing the property. Fresh and clean rooms, impeccable hospitality, rich and varied breakfast served on a panoramic terrace. Licia created a little poetry in Punta Secca. See you soon.

Lovely B&B! The perfect stay for those seeking tranquility, hospitality, availability, care, and so much more. Immerse yourself in this paradise!

Very beautiful structure, made with care, original but also functional details. Nice terrace usable by customers not only for breakfast. Favorable position. The owners are kind, offer useful suggestions/instructions and create a politely informal environment. Breakfast was ok for us, especially for the cake of the day (the one with ricotta and chocolate above all). Suggestion, more than criticism: changing towels every 4 days may be a bit delayed.

Licia is a true hostess in every sense of the word. She naturally makes everyone feel at ease, and always provides support. Upon arrival, they unloaded our luggage and looked for parking. The courtesy was greatly appreciated given the heat and travel fatigue. For breakfast, the mother prepared a moving ricotta and pistachio tart! The entire experience was more than positive, and we can't wait to return. Thank you, Licia, for managing to make beauty even more beautiful and choosing to share it with others. Bow, Lucia.

It has been 2 very relaxing days, we will definitely return, you are fantastic people.

The Sempreverde Atelier B&B is very nice, with a new and very eco-friendly structure.

Very beautiful, unique and welcoming structure; close to the beach, very quiet. Licia, the owner, is friendly and attentive to every small need of her guests. Breakfast on a splendid terrace, with cakes and jam made by her mom; excellent solution for a relaxing holiday. We will definitely come back: highly recommended!

A dive into the past and the future. Welcoming environment, cared for and loved by the owner. A short stay but rich in scents, flavors, and sensations.

Beautiful and original B&B in Punta Secca built in a sustainable way and with straw. This type of construction leaves the rooms cool and airy and it feels very good. Licia, the owner, welcomed us with sympathy explaining the techniques used and presenting the structure to us. Our room was the Fiori, large with a beautiful bathroom also of considerable size and with a terrace surrounded by white bougainvillea. Air conditioning and wifi present and working well. Impeccable cleanliness! Breakfast was served every morning from 9:00 to 10:30 on the beautiful panoramic terrace located above the structure. We stayed for 4 days and we really enjoyed our stay. I conclude the review by pointing out some aspects that in my opinion could be improved: the breakfast time could start earlier, at least at 8:30 to better manage the day. Breakfast has nothing salty and could offer cheeses, cold cuts, eggs etc.. and also some typical pastries (croissants and Sicilian pastries in general). Unlike many other guests, we did not like the sweets offered because they were really too little sweetened. Finally, I mention the parking: the spot in front of the B&B was a driveway and we were told that (rightly) it had to be left free, unfortunately too many times it was occupied by the boyfriend's car. If you really want to help someone, perhaps it is better to choose the guests or enforce the rule for everyone. All this does not detract from the rating which remains very good.

We stayed at the B&B Sempreverde for 5 days in August and we had a great time. The structure is new, the room was comfortable and clean, the original furniture, all designed in an eco-sustainable way. We really enjoyed the breakfast, excellent sweets, fresh cakes, a surprise every day! The B&B is very close to the beaches, it also provides umbrellas and beach chairs for free. Very positive experience.

Very nice host, excellent breakfast on the rooftop, beach chair and umbrella for free, good location only a few steps to the beach and restaurants. We would definitely go again.

A true gem! Licia and her mother pamper and take care of the guests from the very first moment. The breakfast with homemade breads and cakes is unique and if something is missing on the table, it is promptly provided upon request. The individual rooms are all very uniquely decorated and the beds are very comfortable. The location in Punta Secca is quiet yet very central. The small town has a lot of charm and many good restaurants. We can recommend Sempreverde Atelier B&B without hesitation!

Fantastic, wonderful, endearing, cozy, charming. All the facilities in this ecological house, we felt like at our home. Congratulations Licia.

Beautiful structure and very kind and helpful owner. It's a shame we only spent one night, but I will come back.

We were looking for a place to stay near Montalbano's house and we found a splendid solution in this B&B just a few meters from the beach and the center of "Marinella".\n\nLicia manages this ecological house with her parents, with great love and attention, very well maintained and built with natural materials.\n\nWood, raw earth, straw, and bamboo blend perfectly with the furnishings and with the naturalistic project that generated it, the subject of Licia's thesis (I recommend reading on the website how it was conceived).\n\nThe rooms are all themed: we stayed in the Double Flowers, very relaxing and well furnished, with a balcony overlooking the lighthouse and a large bathroom and a beautiful shower.\n\nThe part we enjoyed the most, without taking anything away from the small internal garden with a lemon tree already full of fruit, is undoubtedly the terrace enriched with medicinal and fruit plants.\n\nHere you can have a rich breakfast in a structure where nature reigns.\n\nVery fresh and homemade food by Licia's mother: delicious lemon cream muffins, orange lemon and tangerine jams.. And there is always Modica chocolate and fresh fruit, fruit juices, and cheeses..\n\nPunta Secca sandy beach is a few meters from the property, and parking is available.\n\nThe quality-price ratio..is priceless, it's just to try.

Excellent structure and extraordinary welcome.

Che dire, una struttura a dir poco strepitosa in piena armonia con l'ambiente e lo si assapora in ogni angolo della struttura e nella gestione. Licia è una persona veramente speciale attenta ad ogni piccola necessità e prodiga a far tutto il possibile per mettere il proprio ospite a suo agio, così come la sua splendida famiglia discreta competente e che racconta il suo mestiere più che con passione, con il cuore. Un'esperienza favolosa che spero si possa ripetere al più presto. Grazie di tutto! Luisa.

Mettiamola così: Statt lontano tutti quanto! Così possiamo andarci noi senza problemi. In nostra assenza: andateci e dimenticate casa vostra.

Che dire mi sono letteralmente innamorata di Punta Secca! Paese semplice e sereno, per questo spettacolare. Passeggiare nel centro o lungo la spiaggia è come vivere in un altro mondo ti trasmette una serenità ed una pace incomparabili. Il B&B è nuovissimo e costruito con materiali naturali, Licia poi è una ragazza incantevole, dolce giovanissima, che ha voluto investire nel suo paese invece di scappare brava, complimenti! Cosa dire della colazione? Abbondantissima, frutta pane e dolci fatti in casa, cioccolata di Modica, mandorle non si finisce più, gustata per altro nella terrazza dove si vede il mare! Dalla mia camera si vedeva il faro, bellissimo Consigliatissimo Laura.

Siamo stati solo 5 giorni, ma è stato come se si fosse ospiti da 10 anni. Un accoglienza eccezionale, una colazione spettacolare, ottima la posizione. Vi consiglio di fare anche un giro in gommone con il sig. Gino, vero appassionato e conoscitore del mare Siciliano. Licia, Pia, Gino sono 3 persone speciali. Da tornarci al 100%.
