Guilia’s place was a beautiful quiet getaway spot that can be used as a base to explore much of the eastern coast of Sicily. Also perfect for quiet days with a beautiful view. The rooms were clean and the pool and patio were lovely options. Tiziana and her husband live nearby and were welcoming and very responsive to all our questions. They were wonderful! You absolutely need a car to stay (as she mentions in the listing) and you have to be comfortable driving the narrow streets at night. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely loved the Villa. Communication with Giulia was easy and before we got there she was really helpful with sending us nearby places to eat and see. Directions to the villa were clear and the villa itself was lovely. Amazing views of Etna on one side and sunrise views on the other! Would highly recommend the villa to big groups.

Beautiful accomodation located in lemon orchard, with incredible quiet surroundings, stunning views directly to Etna. Great starting point for trips to the east coast of Sicily, and also for relaxing days spent there by the pool and grill. The owner with the care-taker Tiziana were super helpful, responding as fast as they could. The villa on its own was great, we noticed one drawback during our stay: the interiors were a bit humid (stayed in the beginning of May, had some rainy days), also the bedrooms lack bigger windows and they were more cold than temperature outside - which is definitely great in summer!

La maison est située à 30 minutes de l’aéroport de Catane et constitue un bon emplacement pour les excursions vers Syracuse, Taormina, les Iles éoliennes, l’Etna. Elle est bien équipée, tant en terme d’électroménager que de denrées alimentaires (inutile de faire les courses à la sauvette en urgence, il y a le minimum pour commencer). Le site est calme, entre volcan et méditerranée, au milieu d’une exploitation de citronniers. Une voiture est indispensable. Attention : la route d’accès est plutôt étroite. Les trois unités séparées, disposant chacune d’une salle de bain, sont idéales. La literie est tout à fait correcte. La cuisine n’est pas grande mais les abords extérieurs sont bien aménagés et le jardin présente beaucoup de charme. La piscine est parfaitement entretenue (éclairée la nuit !) et nous avons pu en profiter fin avril. Le wifi est tout à fait suffisant pour un usage courant (réservation de billets, paiement en ligne). Nous avons apprécié l’accueil chaleureux de Tiziana.

Wir hatten eine traumhafte Zeit in dieser wunderschönen Villa. Die Lage ist perfekt. Ruhig und traumhafte Ausblicke. Durch die separaten Schlafeinheiten hatte man perfekte private Rückzugsorte. Beim Essbereich auf der Terrasse konnten wir die schöne Aussicht genießen. Der Poolbereich ist wunderschön und das gesamte Grundstück sehr gepflegt. Auch die Gastgeber Tiziana und Salvatore waren immer zur Stelle wenn es mal etwas zu klären gab. Der Empfang war sehr herzlich und willkommen :-) Danke für die schöne Zeit in bella sicilia

The place has amazing view of Etna and the sea. Its located outside Catania and is a good location for trips to Traomina and syracus. There are some downsides: 1. The road into the place is very narrow and quiet annoying and you need to do it each time you want to go somewhere and its very car dependent. There are also 2 gates you need to manually go and open and then close each time. 2. The beda in the place are very hard and with noisy springs, all of our family were constantly complaining ????. Lastly the wifi is weak and only located in one area, so the other rooms dont get it. If the weather is bad, this is not the place to be. But if its very sunny its really nice around the pool!

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit der Unterkunft. Ein Auto ist zwar notwendig, aber dafür ist man in einer ruhigen Gegend. Die Aussicht war traumhaft und die Gastgeberin sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Einziges Manko war das WLAN, was sehr langsam war und nur im Wohnzimmer funktionierte. Sonst top!

Tiziana and her husband were very helpful and came out quickly if there were any issues. It's a lovely villa, however not the biggest of spaces, kitchen is small, especially on a poor weather day. Wifi is poor. For a few days unfortunately there were issues with the pool. They were very apologetic and these things happen. Being near Mount Etna was great and the view is amazing. We climbed this, explored the local towns, visited Taormina which is beautiful and great for shopping. The property is remote and you do need a car. We have had a great holiday, enjoyed great company and ate and drank plenty. Although the property is a little tired and the bugs are a nightmare, it is a great location. The hosts are very friendly and helpful and if you don't mind a little bit of old fashioned rustic living then it's a great place to relax.

Giulia and her husband are lovely hosts. The check-in and check-out were without any issues, and every time we wanted help with something during our stay, they were quick to respond and help us. Recommend renting a car, as the house is a bit distant from the Catania centre. The WiFi on the premises is very basic, and not suitable for long-term working. The rest is excellent. The cosy house is situated in the middle of the citrus fields, has astonishing views of Etna, and both the garden and the swimming pool area are very refreshing. Overall, we can certainly recommend it.

We were 2 families renting in Sicily and the house is perfect. Separate units meant lots of privacy. Pool is beautiful and view of Etna stunning. A very well equipped kitchen with a generous welcome food parcel. We had a couple of very small issues during our stay and Tiziana was impressively responsive and very clear she wanted us to be happy and comfortable. We would definitely recommend.

Il soggiorno in questa terra meravigliosa quale è la Socilia è stato stato reso ancor più perfetto in questa location. Cortesia e disponibilità massima da parte di Tiziana e suo marito che ci hanno accolto e soddisfatti in ogni nostra richiesta. Casale accogliente in posizione strategica. Panorama mozzafiato! Vacanza da ripetere!

Siamo stati molto bene, godendoci moltissimo gli spazi fuori, la piscina, e la vista meravigliosa sull'Etna. Tiziana e suo marito sono stati fantastici, super disponibili, sia al check-in, sia durante il soggiorno (per pulizia piscina, controllo dopo il temporale, chiavi da recuperare) e anche post checkout, quando li ho tormentati per recuperare alcune cose dimenticate. Grazie mille.

Wir hatten eine super Zeit, die Lage des Hauses in einem Zitronenhain mit Blick auf Meer und Etna ist toll! Auch die Ausstattung ist gut, besonders der Pool und der Garten sind hervorzuheben. Einzig die Matratzen und die Messer waren bei einigen ein Kritikpunkt. Wie überall auf Sizilien gibt es hier natürlich Mücken, aber man kann mit Spray gut vorsorgen. Check in und Check out waren super und Tiziana und ihr Mann wirklich sehr nett und flexibel. Also absolute Empfehlung für größere Gruppen.

Excellent location, beautiful orchards and garden area. Refreshing swimming pool, interior is maybe not the most up to date, but you want to spend as much time around the house as possible. The separated bed rooms give good privacy.

La casa è perfetta per una vacanza di gruppo, poiché garantisce una certa privacy (ogni stanza ha il proprio bagno e alcune hanno un ingresso separato), combinata con spazi comuni ben fruibili. La posizione, in mezzo a un limoneto e di fronte all'Etna, è assolutamente impareggiabile e regala emozioni ad ogni tramonto e ogni mattina. Tra l'altro i limoni sono ottimi! Le stanze sono semplici ma comode e pulite e in cucina c'è tutto il necessario per cucinare e persino per il barbecue. La piscina è bellissima ed è stata la gioia dei bambini (e anche dei grandi). Essendo una casa di campagna, è normale trovare insetti ogni tanto (in particolare dei vermetti che si arrampicano sulle pareti), bisogna metterlo in conto. Non fatevi spaventare dalla strada stretta per arrivare alla casa, vedrete che ne vale la pena! La comunicazione è stata sempre veloce e facile, ed è stato addirittura possibile fare il check-in dopo le 23, dato che il nostro volo arrivava tardi. Due delle stanze e la zona living/cucina sono accessibili ai disabili.

Sehr schön gelegenes Ferienhaus. Die Aussicht vom Garten auf den Äthna ist unglaublich. Wir waren mit zwei Kindern (2 & 5) da. Sie konnten im Garten herumrennen und spielen. Ein Paradies für Gross und Klein! Alles ist eingezäunt. Auch der Pool ist gut gesichert durch Hecke und Gartentor. Die Ausstattung ist hervorragend! Alles da, sogar Reisestecker kann man zu Hause lassen. Die Schlafzimmer sind nicht mit dem Wohnraum direkt verbunden. Sodass ein Babyphon von Vorteil ist wenn Kinder dabei sind. Auto unverzichtbar. Mit Auto aber wirklich tolle Lage! Wir kommen gerne wieder wenn es wärmer ist! Das einzige was nicht allen gefallen hat, waren die vielen Tausendfüssler Abends im Schlafzimmer.. ;-)

We loved our stay at this charming renovated farm house, especially the garden and the absolutely breathtaking views of the Etna. We were in awe of the spectacle every sunset! The location is quiet and seems rural, yet is a great base to explore the Etna and Taormina region. The rooms are cool and all have their own bathroom, the pool is lovely and we even used some lemons from the trees on the land. Tiziana and her husband are wonderful hosts.

Great villa in a fantastic location
We visited with 7 adults and 3 children and was perfect for us. Tiziana was very communicative, friendly and helpful. The views of Etna were incredible, especially when it started to smoke! The kitchen had plenty of equipment so we could cook for ourselves every evening. Would happily return

Great views, brilliant pool and loads of bathrooms.
We enjoyed our stay here as it is in a lovely setting and has amazing views of Etna. The villa itself was fine for our party of 10. It was great having a bathroom for each room. Wifi works well but does not reach all rooms. The pool was excellent and had the sun all day. Stoney but lovely beaches and pretty coastal villages close by. I would highly recommend bringing the strongest bug spray available as the mosquitos are incessant.

A successful, enjoyable holiday with our extended family
A beautiful old villa, elevated, in the midst of lemon groves. Slightly hard to find as Sat Nav coordinates lead you to the villa by a back way which doesn’t exist. The owners’ directions were sound but it was just as well they phoned and found us at the unidentifiable gate to unlock it. The spacious well tended flat and safe garden with plenty of sun and shade and lawn made it ideal for our grandchildren (1 and 8). It was also large enough for those who want some quiet to hunker down with a book. Good size covered area in the shade to eat.
The views were superb all around, to Etna and the sea. The BBQ was the best for cooking that we have had for many years but would benefit from a light. The pool is clean, of even depth and good for swimming more than a few strokes. The rooms are all clean, cool and private with air conditioning that works.
We really appreciated the many provisions the owners left us on arrival, to include household goods as well as a good variety of foodstuffs and an excellent bottle of wine to tide us over until we could get to the supermarket. The friendly owners visited a couple of times to keep the pool clean, replace towels and linen etc and assured us that they could be contacted if ever we should need their further input, which we didn’t. All nine of us in the extended family had a wonderful holiday,

Rustic farmhouse villa with great views
We liked the villa, especially the huge pool and the views. It was well equipped and we liked the en suite bedrooms, although because the villa was mainly an old building, they were a bit dark.
The only thing which would have been nice would be the provision of some form of cushions for the outside benches around the large dining table. We love sitting out day or night but the plain wood benches became uncomfortable after a short while. That apart, we liked the situation of the villa, it was a good base for sightseeing and Tiziana was very helpful.

Great holiday stay
The property is lovely, great views of Etna and the sea, a lot of room surrounded by green in an lemon grove. Pool and pool area are very nice. Nice, clean rooms. We had a wonderful stay and the owners were very nice and helpful. The only small negative are the mattresses which are hard and uncomfortable and could do with an update, then it would be the perfect place!

Beautiful setting and great house!
We have just returned from a week at this great place. We were eight people, three generations, and everyone loved the place. The views of Etna and the sea are just magnificent, and the location is wonderful for a relaxing time. We used the barbeque most nights and sat out enjoying our dinner in the great garden, where the children loved to play. We would be happy to return!
