Wonderful proud property owners
Antonella & Claudio treated us like family in their 1800's home that have been in Claudio's family for generations. The property was historical, well maintained with a view of Mt Etna and the ocean. At night you can see Italy's shore lights. So much welcoming, it even had a very friendly kitty to greet you every morning. Nice privacy and a functional kitchen. We would love to return to their home sometime in the near future if we get to return to Sicily. This trip was wine business, so maybe someday we can come back and relax!

Charming house at the foot of Mt. Etna
This house in Santa Venerina, on the Eastern side of Sicily, was our last stop on a 2 week trip around the island. It turns out we saved the best for last. The house is in a lovely setting on the the hillside, with a stunning view of the sea. Our casa was spacious, comfortable and quiet, with a well-equipped kitchen meant to be shared (but we were the only ones there during our 4 night stay). Antonella and Claudio were so welcoming and charming, and made us feel so at home. They were happy to suggest restaurants & wineries to explore nearby. I can see coming back for at least a week or 2. It was the perfect ending to a fantastic trip. Grazie mille, Antonella & Claudio!

Beautiful place at the foot of Mt. Etna
We had a great stay. Claudio and his wife were gracious and helpful. On our first night Claudio quickly got us a reservation at a lovely restaurant not far from the house. The house was perfect for us. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and very comfortable for our family of 3. The kitchen is very well equipped. The outdoor living areas were more than anything we could have asked for. Wonderful place!! Thank you so much Claudio.

Gorgeous Villa with wonderful hosts
Location is perfect if you want to be away from the hubbub, so you will need a car. Villa was gorgeous, with great views (came with a resident outdoor cat). The two double rooms and kitchen have their own entrance which all open out to the courtyard (ie they are separate dwellings whereby you need to walk through the outside courtyard to get to each). Dwelling 1 has a double bedroom with en-suite, dwelling 2 has a double bedroom with separate bathroom and a front room with sofa, small table with two chairs and TV. Kitchen has seating for two. Definitely recommend this villa.

Charming Rustic Property
A converted 19th century winery located in a grove of citrus fruit trees made for a relaxing and enjoyable respite during our 3 week Sicily vacation. It was so nice to have peace and quiet after spending days in busy city centers in Palermo and Erice. Great hosts were available when needed but allowed us to have plenty of private family time with our adult daughter. Found some great local restaurants and enjoyed light meals in the kitchen - another nice break from hotel and restaurant food. The local towns nearby were nothing special but the property was close to Catania and Taormina for day trips. A car is required and off street parking is provided.
