Situato davanti alla pista ciclabile, che potrete percorrere con le nostre biciclette a disposizione gratuitamente per voi. Ha un'entrata indipendente, ed è circondato da due ampie terrazze, attrezzate con sdraio, ombrelloni, tavoli e circondate da vasi di fiori, cactus e piccole palme, nel 'muretto degli odori' troverete a vostra disposizione basilico, prezzemolo peperoncini salvia ecc.. Nelle terrazze, potrete pranzare, leggere un libro della nostra piccola biblioteca di autori siciliani o prendere il sole da marzo ad ottobre, godendo della vista del mare e dell'Etna. L'appartamento è dotato di tutti i comfort, climatizzato, Tv, arredato con mobili nuovi giovanili e di gusto.

Potrete noleggiare un'imbarcazione nel porto turistico di Riposto denominato ' Porto dell'Etna' distante 2 Km.
Se attraversate la strada, vi troverete in una splendida spiaggia di sassi, e a pochi Km la spiaggia di sabbia

Vacances merveilleuses

Les photos sur le site internet représentent parfaitement ce que nous avons vécus,une belle terrasse avec vue sur la mer et une autre terrasse avec vue sur Etna. Très joliment décorée. Le propriétaire Orizio vit en bas et est très serviable. Nous avons vraiment appréciés notre séjour, très bien situé pour visiter les villes autour.

Most amazing stay ever!

Wow, just wow. What an absolutely amazing stay here! The hosts are most sweet, friendly and helpful. Upon arrival we were greeted with some local delicacies and they had provided both bed and chair for our 8 month old daugther. The apartment has everything you need and has the most stunning views of the sea and of Etna from the two terrances. The charming city of Riposto with supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants is a 20 min walk along the sea and you can use the apartment as a greatly located base for visiting Taormina, Catania, Etna, wineries and much more. All in all our stay was everything we could wish for - and more. We will never ever forget the time we spent here and already dream of returning.

Wonderful Property. Couple shortcomings on informational aspects.

Lots of fruit, a box of pastries, Prosecco and wine on arrival absolutely wonderful and SO appreciated after flight from North America and drive from Catania. Apartment is fabulous - front balcony onto ocean and rear balcony onto Etna incredible. Very clean and very comfortable. Hosts very friendly. Need a car to get around. Should provide more detailed local information - location of market and restaurants + opening hours. Also, the address is not Riposto (according to our Garmin GPS), but Torre Archirafi. Created some confusion.

Riposto retreat

We had a really nice time in this beautifully kept apartment with fantastic views of the Mediterranean out the front and Mount Etna at the back. Orazio and Giusy who own the property are fantastic and have taken create care over the property. We arrived late due to a delayed flight but they were there to greet us, they left a bottle of Brut, the most amazing home cooked aubergine dish, a selection of local pastries, milk, pastries and fruit! In addition, they also helped us out when our wing mirror was knocked off our car. The apartment is well stocked with necessities, a coffee machine, kettle, pots, pans etc. There are folders with information about local attractions and places to eat. We were allowed to borrow bikes to cycle into town, but it is also a nice ~20min walk along the seafront. We cooked a couple of times in the flat and eat out in Riposto. Etna was covered in cloud for most of our stay but we were blessed with a view of the summit on our last morning. Overall highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet place to relax and experience eastern Siciliy

The Best

We have used VRBO/Homeaway extensively for almost 9 years and have been fortunate to have stayed in some great places around the world. This property is probably tied as being the best (It was a 6 out of 5 experience!) From the start, communications with Orazio and Giusy were fast, friendly and accurate. No enquiry or request was an issue. Giusy warmly met us and provided us with very informative tour of the property as well advice for groceries, shopping and restaurants. The box of pastries, fruit basket and bottle of wine were all welcomed and greatly appreciated The apartment is perfect. Large, clean, roomy and extremely well appointed. WiFi was very good and on street parking was never an issue. During the day and early evening, the sea side road is busy with vehicle and pedestrian traffic but is never noisy. The front patio looks directly onto the Med. Nice to wake up to the sound of waves. The rear patio has a spectacular view of Mt Etna. The only tough decision we had every morning was which view do we take in with our coffee:) There are several restaurants, cafes and corner stores in the immediate area and for more stores/markets, etc, the walk to the town of Riposto is a pleasant 20 minutes along the pedestrian walkway. There are also two very good bikes that we rode into town several times. The area is a great place for day trips to Agrigento, Siracusa, Mt Etna and if you need a city fix, Catania and Palermo. We HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this property.

Beautifully maintained with incredible views out back of Mt Etna and out front of the waves lapping.

The property was clean, comfortable, artistically decorated with everything convenience required. The owners were very generous and accommodating. There were information files on local attractions as well as opening times and directions of local shops. This was very helpful and thoughtful.

Nos hotes sont d une gentillesse inégalable, noys preparant un petit repas maison à notre arrivée ainsi que de nombreuses attentions délicates ( fruits, glace traditionnelle, bouteille de vin pétillant local...) sans compter les autres prestations dignes d' un hôtel ( linge sortant du pressing changé au cours du séjour, ustensiles neufs...)

Spetacolare

Dall'arrivo alla partenza è stata una esperienza molto positiva. Il ben arrivati con Spumante, bocconcini vegetali, frutta e cioccolatini è stato molto gradito e in aspettato. La struttura è moderna ben arredata con una vista impagabile sia sul mare che sull'Etna. Chi ama alzarsi presto il mattino può godere di una spettacolare alba sul mare. Utili i consigli dei proprietari per quanto attiene a locali e o visite. Di solito non amo tornare nei luoghi già visti, ma sinceramente sto valutando di contravvenire a questa regola perché il posto è SPETTACOLARE.

Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine dans cet appartement bien situé ( dans un village tranquille), bien equipé, avec ses 2 magnifiques terrasses dont une directement sur la mer et l'autre avec vue impressionnante sur l'Etna. L'autoroute est facilement accessible pour visiter tous les sites les plus intéressant: Taormina, Syracuse, Noto et bien sûr prendre la route qui fait le tour de l'Etna.
