How to reach us

The closest airport is Catania Airport which is not too far from La Rosa sul Mare. Please inform us if you wish to be picked up from Catania Airport as we can arrange for guests to be collected at a special price.

If driving by car from the motorway or airport simply follow road directions toward Catania. From the airport follow signs for Fontana Rossa, Catania. You will then see signs for Siracusa. Take and follow the E45-SS114 for about 50 km towards Siracusa. Take the exit for Siracusa, NOT SIRACUSA NORD.

Take the SS124 Via per Floridia. Look out for the road Contrada Dammusi on your right and follow this along (it bends to the left) and it becomes Viale Pantanelli. Turn right towards Via Elorina SS/115 and continue on this street for about 2,4Km. Turn left into SP58/Traversa Case Abela for another 1,4 km. At the roundabout take the second exit for SP58 Strada Capo Murro di Porco and follow this road for 5km.

Then turn right on to Via delle Perle. Turn left after 70 metres and you will be on Via dei Diamanti. La Rosa sul Mare is located at number 16, a large resort with white gates and La Rosa sul Mare written on the entry phone.

Travelling by bus is a good way to visit the various Sicilian landmarks. An efficient and regular service runs on the island. Visit the useful Links Page for more information.
