Amenities & services
Looking to the sea and dominated by Mount San Calogero on its east side, Sciacca is the oldest baths resort of Sicily and one of the biggest town of the south-eastern coast. Very famous are the Natural Steam Vents of San Calogero, 7 Km away from the town. The area was inhabited up to the Copper Age, when an earthquake (2000 BC) caused the emission of vapors. Nobody could live there anymore and the spot had to be abandoned. Several items have been found, evidences of people living there. The caves have been called after a monk who, arriving in the spot in the 6th century BC, realized that the vapors could treat several diseases, and provided the area with stone benches for sick people. The largest is La Grotta del Santo (the saint's cave), where St. Calogero probably lived, L'Antro di Dedalo (Daedalus's cave) and La Grotta degli Animali (The Animals' cave). Today the caves are part of the modern establishment of the Grande Albergo delle Stufe. The geysers originate from an underground hot water spring flowing beneath Mount Kronio. The vapors come to the surface along the fissures of the rock, and reach 40°C. Many illnesses can be treated with the vapors, such as rheumatisms, skin diseases, gynecological problems and allergies. In the premises the mudtherapy is practiced (for arthritis), bath therapy (for osteoarthritis and skin disease) and respiratory therapies.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
