Sicily is so rich in history that the island boasts no less than 8 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Here, we stay at the lovely Acacia Resort with a hotel choice of the Acacia Marina or Acacia Palace. Guests can enjoy the beautiful gardens, or take a short level walk along the seafront promenade leading into the centre of Marina di Ragusa. This small seaside resort offers a selection of cafés, bars and shops and its beautiful golden beach has been awarded a Blue Flag.
Our bridge holiday package includes two fantastic excursions. We visit Siracusa, one of the most ancient towns in the world. Over three centuries, it became one of the most rich and powerful cities in the Mediterranean. Our second visit takes us to delightful Ragusa Ibla, famous for its 50+ Baroque churches. Enjoy stunning views across the valley as our Noddy train takes us all over this incredible town, exposing glimpses of Vigata and Montelusa from the setting of Inspector Montalbano. We also include a visit to the very beautiful Gothic Venetian Donnafugata Castle, a sumptuous noble residence from the late 1800s. Why not make this holiday really special and treat yourself to one of the many room upgrades available?

Your Bridge Programme
Our bridge programmes will vary according to the length of your break, and, in addition to playing bridge, we try to include interesting bridge seminars, hosted by your EBU-qualified director.
Your duplicate bridge will be available every evening between 7:45pm and 11:15pm. We endeavour to vary these evening sessions, balancing between teams and pairs and featuring at least one Swiss event during a two-week break.
Bridge will also be offered some afternoons between 2:30pm and 4:45pm. These sessions are normally given over to open pairs/teams.
Masterpoints are awarded on evening bridge sessions, and on day sessions with over 5 tables.
During your bridge holiday, nothing is obligatory, and you can play in as many or as few bridge sessions as you wish. We don’t forget you are on holiday and our bridge programmes also allow time to relax, giving the opportunity for you to explore the surrounding area.
Meet us at the airport and fly from London to Catania.
Alternatively, if you have made your own travel arrangements, we will meet you at the hotel.
Alongside your varied bridge programme, we have two fantastic excursions included on this holiday.
Siracusa (Day 3)
We visit one of the most ancient towns in the world, founded by Greek settlers in the 8th century B.C. Over three centuries, it became one of the most powerful and rich cities in the Mediterranean, rivaling in beauty with Athens. The oldest nucleus of Syracuse was founded on the small island Ortigia, which today is the historical centre of the town, with Greek remains standing side by side with Renaissance buildings and Baroque churches.
Here, we’ll visit the Cathedral, built in the 8th century using the structure of an ellenistic temple dedicated to the goddess Athena. This beautiful church stands on an equally beautiful square, Piazza Duomo. It is entirely surrounded by elegant palazzi and churches, including Santa Lucia alla Badia, where a priceless painting by Caravaggio is kept, depicting the burial of the saint. The visit of Ortigia continues along the promenade and the small side streets, lined with shops and cafés. We’ll see the Aretusa fountain, the Fonte Diana, and the ruins of the Temple of Apollo.
After lunch, we proceed to the Archaeological Park and admire the 5th-century BC Greek Theatre – still used, in summer, for classic theatre performances – the so-called ear of Dionisus, the stone quarries, the huge Ierone alter, and the Roman Amphitheatre.
Ragusa Ibla (Day 5)
An ancient historical centre of the city of Ragusa, Ragusa Ibla is famous for its 50+ Baroque churches, including the lavish Duomo of San Giorgio. Perched on a hill, it dominates the valley and enjoys increased notoriety thanks to the TV series Inspector Montalbano, where it features as the setting for various glimpses of Vigata and Montelusa.
The Donnafugata Castle is located in the municipality of Ragusa, about 15 kilometers from the city. The current building, contrary to what the name might suggest, is a sumptuous noble residence from the late 1800s. The residence overlooked what were the possessions of the rich Arezzo De Spuches family. From the moment you arrive, the castle reveals its sumptuousness: the building covers an area of over 7500 square meters on 3 floors in a neo-Gothic style, crowned by two lateral towers, welcoming visitors. Entry into Donnafugata Castle is included along with a fabulous mini train ride that takes in the sights of Ragusa Ibla.
After breakfast, we depart for our return flight to London.
Alternatively, if you have made your own travel arrangements, you will check out of the hotel and make your own way home.
You will stay for seven nights half board at your chosen hotel of either Acacia Marina or Acacia Palace.
These two delightful hotels are set next to each other in stunning grounds where guests share all the indoor and outdoor facilities of both hotels. The hotels are linked together by an internal bridge, and our group dine together in the main restaurant for breakfast and dinner.
The 4-star Acacia Palace stands in stunning tropical gardens surrounding a large outdoor pool and three free-standing hot tubs and beautiful terraces. Dinner is buffet service, and guests can enjoy local and international cuisine. All spacious bedrooms feature a balcony or patio, and are equipped with a TV, direct dial telephone, safety deposit box (charges apply), complimentary WiFi, a fridge, tea and coffee-making facilities, and an en-suite bathroom with hairdryer and toiletries.
