Description
Who are we? We are two mixed couples, passionate about Sicily and hospitality:
👩 Diane (French) & 👨 Nicholas (Italian)
👩 Aisha (English) & 👨 Raffaele (Italian)
We’ve recently taken over the management of a B&B in Fontane Bianche, a beautiful seaside village in southern Sicily. We’re combining our different backgrounds and experiences to create a cozy and authentic place.
We’re a young and dynamic team, and we love keeping things fun and lively! 😃 But we also believe in doing things with attention to detail, and since this is our workplace, we do like to keep the common areas neat and tidy.
What are we looking for?
We need someone enthusiastic and flexible to help us get ready for the season. Your tasks will include:
🔹 Helping out in the garden 🌱
🔹 Cleaning and maintaining the common areas🧹
🔹 Assisting with check-ins 🏡
🔹 Giving a hand with breakfast preparation🥐☕
🔹 Helping with other tasks to set up the B&B
What we offer:
✅ A private room with access to the staff kitchen
✅ Breakfast included 🍞☕
✅ A relaxed and fun work environment, just steps from the beach 🌊
✅ An immersive experience in Sicilian culture — and who knows, you might even pick up a few Sicilian recipes from us! 🍝🔥
We’ll make sure you experience the best of Sicily and maybe even teach you how to cook like a local!
