Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Costa Saracena-Castelluccio

We had a great stay in Tina’s place. Tina was always very helpful and very quick to respond to requests. The place is really peaceful and beautiful. To sit outside and listen to nightingales singing, scops owls calling at night and many more birds was fantastic. The only other noise was the bells on the cows as they came past the house to go for a drink. The flowers along the tracks are gorgeous. The place has a fantastic ambience. A wonderful relaxing retreat. Wish we had been able to stay longer.

Francesco's vacation home is great on the slope of Etna with a terrace view to the north-east. From the terrace, you can enjoy a beautiful view over the vineyards and the valley of Linguaglossa. You can really enjoy your peace and quiet there and there are two restaurants within walking distance. A rental car is nevertheless recommended to explore the great surroundings (excursion to Etna - 16 km, beach south of Naxos - about 20 km, Taormina (great recommendation) - about 30 km, gorge of Alcantara - about 20 km and and and). All in all a very nice vacation home for up to 4 people with a great quiet location and fantastic views. We will be happy to come back.

A cosy apartment with a stunning view and hosted by a very responsive host. Thank you Andrea

Couldn’t have been better. Easy communication, super warm welcome, awesome property that has everything you need and more. We felt immediately at home and even days of thunderstorm and rain were pleasant in this house. Valerio and his family have always been there for us and took care of everything super fast. The property looks in real life even better than on the pictures.

We love the place! It has a lot of character and super spacious. Clean. Check in/out super easy. They left us a super comfortable and lovely crib for our daughter and a big elephant dodo that my girl loved. High chairs as well. The only thing which could have been a bit uncomfortable was that the curtains don’t cover fully the light of the morning and that with small kids meant we were all awake at 6:30 am 🤪. And may be there’s a bit of humidity smell on one of the rooms but nothing too serious.

We had a wonderful few days stay. The house and gardens are just beautiful, even better than the images. Ketty the housekeeper was lovely and Francesca was very responsive. The house is situated 15 min drive from Noto so very simple to get to the shops etc. There are no shops/restaurants within walking distance but we were able to drive a short distance to get everything we needed. Would highly recommend anyone looking for beautiful and traditional Italian villa in a quiet and relaxing area.

Thank you for the opportunity to stay in your wonderful house. Everything was excellent! A secluded quiet place for a relaxing holiday and to see Sicily! It's a special pleasure to watch the eruption of Etna!!! It's unforgettable! Ciao!!!

Elio was a great host! Super friendly and helpful. The place was comfortable and clean and our kids loved exploring the area. I didn’t love driving on Sicily and you did have to drive to get anywhere, but that wasn’t a big deal. If the listing looks good to you, you will enjoy your stay here.

Had an amazing two month stay in this place. The apartment is spaceous and centrally located, I felt right at home. Lisania and her husband were very welcoming and provided fresh linens throughout my stay.

We had a wonderful week. The flat is beautiful, a great location, it was lovely to sit on the roof terrace and the kitchen/living room was very comfortable for 5 of us to relax after a day of walking around Ortigia

This place is super clean and cozy, with a terrific view of both the Etna volcano and the seashore. You could have both shimmering dots along the coast and the flaming mountain summit - if you're lucky enough. The supermarket is easy to reach and the airbnb is close to the city center. Chiara is super reliable and responds quickly. Angela is super nice as well. I would definitely recommend this house to you!

We were guests at Daniela's for the second time. The apartment is large has shabby charm, nothing is new, but it is somehow romantic. The location is perfect and we love the large roof terrace. It is totally quiet and you can hear and see the sea and you are still in the middle of the old town.

Great place. Right in the center of it all.

If Sicily was an apartment - this would be it. It is lovely, very well decorated and gives you the full sicilian feeling. The terrace is very useful, you have the view on the sea and the mountains and it is large enough for all activities. Private and gated parking in front of the building, very easy to park safely. The host had all of the qualities of a good host - on time, responsive, willing to help, even gave us a small gift for easter. If you come here you will have a nice apartment, a friendly host and a good experience overall.

What a view!! This place was great. Plenty of space for the four of us. Clean and comfortable too. The kitchen was very well equipped. Many, many stairs and an uphill walk to get to town, but lots to do and places to eat when you get there! A+

I stayed at Francesca's place for a week. The house is in a perfect location, very close to lidl, supermarkets and shopping centers. Just 10 minutes by car from the center of Catania (for the type of trip I had in mind it was a perfect house) plus it is slightly raised on a hill, and on the warm days of August we had the pleasure of breathing some fresh air! 15 minutes from the house are also beautiful sea areas (such as "the caves of Ulysses"). Francesca is very helpful and open to dialogue! Overall a positive experience!!

Villa Gorna is an amazing location with fantastic hosts. The property is as described and photos are accurate. A lot of care was taken to put nice extra features. Orazio was very responsive and helpful, with offers available for tours etc. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend.

We had a friendly and warm welcome with Pina. The house is extremely clean, spacious, comfortable. The outdoor spaces are beautiful. Sea views on one side, Mount Etna on the other. Flowers in abundance. Quiet and serenity guaranteed. Pina was very welcoming and gave us a lot of information. Even though the house is isolated, we had all the necessary directions to get there. It is a typical house, tastefully furnished and above all filled with attention to make you feel at home. We highly recommend this place!!!

A beautiful, spacious house with a lovely garden, veranda, and barbecue area! The rooms were large and spotlessly clean. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. The surrounding nature is stunning and peaceful — just a 10-minute drive from Ragusa and 15 minutes from the nearest beach. Thank you for the warm hospitality — we wish you all the best and good health!

Fantastic property overlooking the volcano and the sea. Lovingly furnished and renovated according to the atmosphere. Great for large families. Away from tourism.

Great place, fantastic value with stunning views! We loved the location at the base of Etna. Place was clean, really cute. Would stay again!

We had a fantastic eight day stay in Mario’s wonderful villa. The location and views are incredible and we would highly recommend staying here. Mount Etna even erupted and put on a display (which was fabulous to witness) and Mario was hot on the phone telling us to get outside at 11pm to view the spectacle. A perfect venue with lots of space for our large party of eight adults and two children, the surrounding patios gave amazing panoramic views of the sea and countryside. We loved picking fresh oranges and cherries daily which was so relaxing and tasty! It’s a short 15 minute walk to the local town with a wonderful bakery and butchers plus supermarkets all accessable. We will definitely return to this wonderful villa when revisiting Sicily and I can’t recommend it enough! Thank you Mario .

Villa di Palme was great, the host from Isula travel was very friendly, proactive and responsive. The villa was nice and clean, and it was in a beautiful area. We had everything we needed for a family with 3 kids. There are plenty of things to do in the area. The sea is 10 minutes walk from the villa. There are few great sea food restaurants in the area that serve fresh catch of the day. I recommend to have a car which allows you to drive around the area. You should visit Ispica and Sarcusa which are less than hour away. You can also visit the most southern tip of Sicily which is 30 minutes drive from the villa. Which has a great beach with lots if gooden sand. You can get your food and essentials from the small supermarket about a 1km away from the house. Bigger supermarkets are only 10 minutes drive. Host left some essentials for us which came handy on the day 1. You need to ask for bin collection time from the host as you need to dispose them in a communal bin collection spot.

A celebration of my 70 years with children and 4 grandchildren. Perfect. Great outdoor space. Rooms were basic but we prefer that as we would have worried about the children with sticky fingers etc if it had been all designer chic. A beautiful pool. A few minutes from culture and great beaches. A SPA supermarket 10 minutes away with great fresh veg, meat and fish. And wine ! Well done Paulo.
