We love meeting people from around the world and making our guests feel at home, while giving everyone the freedom to experience Sicily at their own pace.
**We look forward to welcoming you to Le Decime!**

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
We chose this area because it offers the best of Sicily in one place: **the peace and beauty of the countryside, the spectacular presence of Mount Etna, and the Ionian Sea and beaches just minutes away**.
We love the tranquillity of Le Decime, surrounded by citrus groves and open countryside, with **Etna rising behind the property and beautiful sea views in front**. Yet we are also perfectly placed for exploring some of eastern Sicily’s highlights, including Taormina, Mount Etna, the Alcantara Gorge and the coastal villages.
What we enjoy most is the feeling of being away from the crowds while still being close to everything. You can spend the day exploring Sicily and return to the quiet of the casale, relax by the **salt-water infinity pool**, enjoy the views and watch the landscape change as the sun sets.
For us, it is this combination of **nature, tranquillity, sea, mountains and authentic Sicilian life** that makes the area so special.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
What makes Le Decime unique is the combination of **history, authentic Sicilian character, tranquillity and spectacular surroundings**.
Our property is a **historic 1800s Sicilian casale**, once belonging to the **Principe Gravina di Palagonia**, one of Sicily’s historic noble families. We have carefully restored the property while preserving many of its original features and traditional character, including the beautiful local lava stone and elements of the old rural estate.
Today, Le Decime offers a very different experience from a typical holiday accommodation. Guests can stay in a genuine piece of Sicilian history, surrounded by countryside, with **Mount Etna rising behind the property and views towards the Ionian Sea**.
The **salt-water infinity pool**, exclusively reserved for Le Decime guests, adds a modern touch while complementing the historic setting. Each accommodation has its own character, and our apartments and rooms combine traditional Sicilian details with modern comfort.
We believe it is this unique mix of **history, authenticity, privacy, nature, Etna and the sea** that makes Le Decime a truly special place to stay.
