Sicily is a vibrant island surrounded by clear seas, blessed with magnificent mountain scenery, ancient monuments and traditional villages where the way of life has changed little over the centuries. It is an island with its own unique character, still relatively untouched by tourism.

Sicilian Experience provides simple, comfortable and clean holiday accommodation in Sicily, enabling you to experience authentic Sicilian life… living for a while amongst its warm and friendly people. All our rental apartments in Sicily are locally owned historic buildings, located in Sicily's breathtaking countryside and delightful Sicily villages. There is a wide range of choice from self catering apartments to Sicily bed and breakfast accommodation, from rentals close to gorgeous Sicily beaches to apartments near historical centres. We have apartments close to the popular destinations of Palermo, Cefalu and Messina as well as those off the beaten track in Sicily's Madonie Park.

Sicilian Experience was founded by Carmelina Ricciardello, a native of Sicily who is passionate about the land, its culture and its people. Her aim is to promote the island to visitors who wish to experience Sicilian life in a way that is underpinned by sustainable tourism, whilst supporting the local economy of the island she loves.
