We Visited Il Limoneto In October 2005 With Anothe
We visited Il Limoneto in October 2005 with another couple and loved it! They were extremely friendly and hospitable. They recommended a number of places for us to visit that it made our continuing trip through SIcily very memorable. Our suites adjoined the lemon grove and were spacious, spotless and private. The food was some of the best we had - and cooked outside in the 'patio kitchen'. We were made to feel so welcome! In May 2007 we had a chance to return to Il Limoneto, but only for a visit. We were remembered! And we had the chance to dine with many friends in their lovely new dining room. We were so happy to see the expansion and apparent prosperity of this dear family. We often think of our stay there and will never forget it.

Limoneto Is A Nice And Quiet Place ,clean And Well
Limoneto is a nice and quiet place ,clean and well kept. The owners are as helpful as ever always ready to help the guests. The place has mantained the charm of a country house. It is not a hotel, but a real Sicilian house open to travellers.

If You Are Looking For A Peaceful Place, Not Too F
If you are looking for a peaceful place, not too far from the action in Siracusa and Ortigia, try the Limoneto. My friend and I just returned from a wonderful trip in Sicily, and decided to stay there for two nights. We had a clean, good-sized double room (#8), which was private and over looked the lemon grove. It was around E90 per night. We spent the extra E20+ for dinner (drinks were extra also), and we were so glad we did. The food was excellent! The first night we were there, we were served a fritta mista (delicately fried sea urchins, calamari, shrimp), pasta with shrimp, a tasty salad (all family style), and a delicious dessert with their own limoncella (yum!). The second night, which was a Saturday (I think!), they had a gigantic buffet of about 30 vegetable and pasta dishes, pizza, fresh pineapple slices, cheeses and, of course, limoncella, which they make there (of course, we had to buy a bottle to take back home!!), and we were entertained by Adelina's son on the keyboard.
Adelina and her husband are very kind, knowledgeable people. He even helped me with my Italian. He also showed us around the farm. We arrived by taxi (the driver told us they were good people and the food... this he expressed by kissing his fingers, as the Italians do, as an expression of delicious and heavenly). We had decided to just spend the day lazying around as we did not have a car (big mistake on our part!), and their daughter, Dora, offerred to drive us into Siracusa on her way home. We returned by bus which stopped a little before the road to the Limoneto, and then we walked down about 1/2 to 1 mile to the Limoneto (ok with us as we got some exercise). This was a memorable time during our trip, and I would recommend it highly. When we return to Sicily, we will return to the Limoneto. I rated it very high as a bed & breakfast, because I felt this was a fine sample of Sicilian hospitality and food.
