A beautiful place, with impeccable service. It's the third time we've been there, and we'll be back.

The hotel is a lovely old converted winery and is situated in a very large Orange/Lemon orchard in the middle of the countryside. The hotel rooms and grounds are stunning, with nice views of the Volcano/Sea and the bar/restaurant are both excellent. Breakfast is a fabulous experience and is served outside on a lovely covered area with views out to the sea. The spa is small but is nicely designed and the staff do a good job. The swimming pool and poolside areas are quite nice, although the pool wasn't heated in April, so was VERY cold. The big negatives during our stay were that the food options at lunch are VERY limited and the poolside drinks/food service weren't available. In addition, the evening food options for dinner, apart from the Michelin star restaurant, aren't sufficient for a hotel of this calibre. In addition, the hotel rooms that face the nearby railway line (Whilst large and beautiful) suffer from too much noise from the trains that pass by. Lastly, if you want to take a taxi to the nearby town (Riposto) the taxi is VERY expensive for a 10m journey and the restaurant options are limited. All in all it's a very nice place, but has some limitations that impact overall experience a little too much which is a real shame.

A lovely property that is unfortunately right behind a train track so if you’re a light sleeper you’ll likely be disturbed. We loved the amazingly beautiful villa and our meal at the restaurant was an epic experience. I would strongly suggest new and or different music in the villa. The elevator music was tiresome and annoying and not at all compatible with the lovely surroundings

Absolute quiet around the rooms. Staff were extremely professional and courteous. Overall, outstanding performance property and people!!

Great boutique hotel with clean spacious rooms, was a bit disappointed with the service given the price of the accommodation.

Heaven Heaven Heaven! So peaceful, amazing view on the Etna… really good to relax. The Michelin restaurant is out of this world. Bravo

We were super excited to stay here but ended up wishing we booked less nights. You really only need to stay here one night. Or I recommend booking at a vineyard lodge on the area and coming for dinner. The dinner and service was great, would definitely eat there again. The daily breakfast was good but the service was bad (they forgot our order one of the mornings). But the wasps…horrible!!! Anytime you eat they are right there! They really should do something about them!! Not much to do on the property. The rooms we had weren’t that great, in our room I felt like the tv stand was just gonna fall over any second. The spa is small and ok. The massage was interesting.

This place is AMAZING. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is beautiful. We stayed 2 nights in private a garden sweet and 1 night in a room on the second floor of the casa with a private balcony. Both rooms were absolutely stunning. The pool area was amazing. The bar staff was very helpful. The restaraunt was fantastic. Great food and great service. We also called the reception to book us a tour of Mt Etna. And we had the best tour guide thanks to Zash. Onsite parking makes it easy to come and go if you bring your own vehicle. The spa is a wonderful place to relax. I highly recommend.

This place is just wonderful. A peaceful stay right at the edge of Etna. The property is beautiful, the room was incredible and the staff is so incredibly nice and helpful. I wish I had more time to stay there

Worst night's sleep EVER!! Amongst all the peace and serenity is a train line, which just happens to be located right next to the hotel and runs until about midnight and then again from about 4am. Try sleeping with that right next to you. Impossible. It was like sleeping on the track!! To top it off, we were in room 5 and next to the kitchen, so had the extra treat of listening to the pots and pans from the kitchen being cleaned until around midnight. I complained on check out and they knocked off the price of 2 (massively overpriced) glasses of wine. Not good enough. The pool is great and surroundings are nice (ignoring the train line), but the relaxation during the day is completely ruined by the complete lack of sleep. AVOID!!!

Privacy and delightedness are a must in this wonderful hotel. I also highlight the design of the Spa and swimming pool, the rooms and of course the restaurant. Last but not the least, a very kind and helpful staff.

We had a very stay. We especially enjoyed the atmosphere, the surroundings, the restaurant and the very kind and attentive staff.

A really stunning property; pool area, restaurant and the rooms are particular highlights. Didn't have time to try to spa but that looked amazing too. The staff (particularly Morinio (sp?) on the front desk) were incredibly friendly and helpful - couldn't do enough to help out. Expectations for the room were completely blown away by the reality - very appreciative of the upgrade to a suite in the gardens - beautifully designed and comfortable; instant relaxation. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful property with views of the water and Mt. Etna. Great amenities and the service was very friendly and efficient. The only thing that is somewhat disappointing is the surrounding area. The property is located close to train tracks which can be a bit noisy and distracting from the otherwise tranquil property. Also not a ton of dining options nearby.

Beautiful setting on an old winery, nice spa and pool and dining area. Beautiful modern rooms.
