Family-friendly vacation rentals in Roccalumera

Sergio’s villa was the most beautiful place that we have ever stayed. Olive and citrus trees right in the yard and pristine views of Mount Etna. Restaurants, coffee, shops, and pharmacies were all within short walks from the home. I would stay again in a heartbeat, if Sergio would have us.

The apartment was very modern and clean. It is centered nearby the castle - note that the streets are pretty small in the center of the village, so it's better when you have a small car. Also, the road from Catania to Montalbano are very curvy and damaged at the end.

Thank you very much. We had a great stay.

The check-in was flexible and easily arranged. The villa was beautiful and very comfortable for two couples, located outside of the city which makes it easy to unplug and relax. Thanks for a lovely stay.

I highly recommend this Villa - it surpassed our expectations. The best aspect is Maurizio’s services and excellent communication. He helped organise transfers (even at very short notice), arranged pizza chefs at the villa, and reliably responded to all our requests promptly. Hospitality and care like a 5* hotel. I planned a trip for 4 days for a group of 14 girls in mid-May. As soon as we landed in Catania, we felt we were being personally looked after. Maurizio helped me pre-arrange minibus transfers and kept in regular contact to ensure all was well. Exploring the grounds of the villa was a highlight. We enjoyed fresh oranges from the trees and squeezed large lemons into our drinks. There’s an excellent outdoor gazebo area with concrete ground and tent-like roof surrounded by beautiful trees. The terraces provide beautiful views of the sea, sunset and islands. The kitchen is small but was sufficient to cook for 14 people, with large pots/pans. Bedrooms huge and spacious

Our stay in Sicily was truly unforgettable! The house had a beautiful character, filled with charming details that made it feel like a home. The garden was a stunning oasis, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the warm Sicilian evenings. Our host, Carlo, was exceptional—always available to answer questions and provide recommendations. The highlight of our trip was the incredible five-course Sicilian dinner Carlo organized for us, showcasing the region's delicious cuisine. Each dish was a delight! The location itself is a must-visit, with breathtaking views and rich culture all around. We felt immersed in the beauty and warmth of Sicily. Highly recommend this lovely spot for anyone looking to experience the best of the island!

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 .

The apartment was spotless and very central. Within walking distance of all the main tourist areas in Catania and the cathedral is literally 1 minute away. Some lovely restaurants nearby too. The roof terrace is a very big, fantastic outdoor space. Only downside was the noise from the bars at night, but to be honest, this stopped about midnight and most nights we enjoyed visiting them anyway.

Lovely apartment with very large terrace , great help getting our heavy bags up to room. Super location and host help organise taxi when we needed it.

We had a wonderful stay here! The town can be reached by bus or taxi, but make sure you’re not travelling on a public holiday (like us!) The apartment is tidy and quite spacious, and the balcony is perfect! The kitchen has everything you need with some lovely gifts of local produce left by the host. The town is beautiful and walkable, we came just before fireworks festival and were able to see some amazing local displays of celebration. The bells on the church ring out every 15 minutes between 6am and 10pm, but we were enjoyed the sound. The hosts are so helpful and lovely - really good people Highly recommend

We loved this place! If you want a private spot more on the countryside but still close to the beach, Taormina, Catania and visiting the Etna this is the best. We stayed for a week and want to come back if we visit Sicily again. Thanks for hosting Andrea!

We had a wonderful stay at the appartement. We really enjoyed the beautiful balcony and the nature all around. We even got nice fresh fruits out of the garden!

Giuseppe is an exceptional host, very helpful and available. The village of Motta Camastra is very nice and the view is sublime. We were lucky to be there during the 2 days of the village festival so we could enjoy the concerts, fireworks, processions, illuminations and brass band. The apartment is very functional, well located in the village and allows you to enjoy the various visits to do in the vicinity including Etna. We regret not staying longer!

Elisa and her sister were super helpful and responsive. The house is very nice and has two spacious bedrooms. The location is excellent, just a few minutes walking to a lift thay brings you straight to Taormina. Me and my friends had a great time there and recommend it!

As is often the case, the pictures of the view don't come close to the actual view we enjoyed during our stay. Absolutely breathtaking! The apartment was nicely appointed and around a 15 minute walk to the core town activities of Taormina. The owners of the apartment live upstairs and were a joy to get to know. If you love dogs, their sweet Papaya will become your new best friend. Our hosts were very responsive and even brought us some sweet lemon mousse (and shared the recipe!) for us to enjoy. I am quite certain we will be visiting Taormina again, as it is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and I will definitely look to stay here again.

Beautifull spot. Beautiful house and very friendly locals.

We were two Canadian couples staying for 5 nights (after visiting Milano/Genova), with a car that we rented at Catania airport. We arrivred at 9PM but our host Nando was communicating us and received us in person. Upon arrival, fridge had some complimentary sandwiches, juice drinks and snacks, and a delicious homemade cake. Lovely place, peaceful, spacious, additional to detail, comes as advertised. Beautiful 180 degree view, when sitting outside by the pool, and even from main salon/kitchen. Loved the bedrooms and in particular the high quality mattresses and sheets. Made good use of the washing machine as we had a lot of laundry from our first week in Italy. Nando was very thoughful and proactive in checking in on us and suggesting places to visit and eat at. Good location, about a 10-15 minute drive to Taormina parking and a short drive to get on highway to visit Mount Etna or Syracuse/Ortigia. We had a wonderful stay in Sicily, thank you Nando!

We spent 10 fabulous days in this beautiful villa for 10 people. Very clean villa as soon as we arrived and very welcoming and caring host. The villa is very spacious for 10 people. Everything was as described. The garden is splendid and very well maintained. We highly recommend it and would not hesitate to go back. Despite the mixed weather, we were able to enjoy the outdoors space. Thanks to our host for their kindness.

This place is a gem. For the 11 of us we found it perfect. The house is wonderful and was great to just lay around the pool and relax. But was also a good base for day trips. You’ll want a rental car.

Our stay at Angela's place was excellent! The house is great, it consists of multiple buildings and different areas. This was a perfect place when travelling with teenagers. Great pool area, everything neat and a very well equipped kitchen and central hang-out area. Torregrotta is an authentic, unpolished, quiet town, away from the tourist crowds and very close to cute mountain villages. The town itself has shops to get basic necessities and some good local products. Teenagers were happy with pool area and house, but town was a little quiet to their taste. We loved exploring the area, for which the town is an excellent starting point. You definitely need a car though! Angela is a top host. 5 stars for her pro active communication and hospitality, even from a distance. Care takers Donata and Paolo get 5 stars as well. They were available for any advice or technical support with the house! Can wholeheartedly recommend this house if you are looking to explore N.E. Sicily!

Gorgeous house, excellent location, and such gracious hosts! Daniele and his parents were both lovely. The space is clean and has everything we needed. The pool is the perfect afternoon relaxing spot. It’s well kept and very clean, which we can only imagine a huge feat considering the volcanic ashes! We also went up Mt Etna with Daniele. He’s a great guide as well! Overall 10/10 recommend.

Helgas place exceeded our expectations. We had family of 7 and the apartment is spacious and very comfortable with an amazing view . The location is quiet whilst being only a few minutes walk from the town centre . We had a problem with the shower head and it was sorted within a couple of hours . Great service . Our family loved the week we spent in the apartment . Thoroughly recommended . John, Perth Australia

What a fantastic place! Michela’s house, on an old farming area, is full of charm. You can have your breakfast on the patio with a view that is hard to beat, Mount Etna. I had not time to use the pool, but it speaks for itself. The car park is private and safe. The house shows the result of a lot of work, effort and care during the years, a house with a great personality. Michela is a very good host, communication works perfect. I got help with the checking-in and was told how everything works, which saved a lot of time, a fine example of Sicilian hospitality. It was a real pleasure to stay at her place, easy choice next time I will be around. Very much recommendable indeed!

We had a wonderful week in Patti - Lara’s home was the perfect base to explore the island from. Lara and Martina were extremely helpful, providing lots of recommendations for places to eat and visit. The pool is gorgeous, and there are balconies all around the house so you can chase the sun (or shade) throughout the day. We really can’t recommend this place enough.
