Fodor's Expert Review La Tartaruga

There's nothing remote or rough-and-ready about this gorgeous B&B set in the higher part of Marettimo, where tasteful modern design combines with personable hosts to create the perfect island getaway. You'll be hard pressed to tear yourself away from the sun-drenched roof terrace, equipped with sunbeds and shade sails, from which village and sea spread serenely before you—and it's perfect for star-gazing, too. The four air-conditioned rooms are spacious, airy, and immaculately clean, with rain-showers in the en suite bathrooms. Breakfasts include bread straight from the oven, as well as delicious home-baked cakes, tarts, biscuits, and fresh fruit.
