Beautiful location
We enjoyed our stay and the location is beautiful if not a bit remote but we knew that going in. I realize its a very old house but a few things definitely need updating. The mirror in the downstairs bathroom is basically useless old and fogged over. The kitchen pots and pans were pretty dirty we had to wash before we used it. Its in a beautiful place and owner is very nice and interesting just need a few TLC touches and a good cleaning.

What a gem
Our hosts were super helpful and responsive to any questions we had. The property met our needs for a 10 day break. It is in a lovely quiet location within Etna parkland with a lovely view, especially in the evening when all the lights of Catania sparkle in the distance. We were able to pack in a number of different walks around Etna, a trip to the Aeolian Islands, a visit to Taormina, Syracuse and Noto, a visit to the Alcantara Gorge and some beach-time. We only used the pool at the house a handful of times but were grateful that it was there. Be warned that you need bottled water for drinking as the tap water is not recommended.

Amazing stay in Casa Etnea
Villa is situated around 45min-1hr from Catania Airport. It is very peaceful and natural envorinment. There is no Air conditioning but it is not necessery as the nights are a bit colder as the villa is higher up the mountain. Pool is big enough for dip after whole day in sun. The owners are very friendly and easy going. They made us fabolous dinner and it was the best pasta we had in whole Sicily. Giuseppe knowledge of Etna and Sicily is huge. We had one issue with hot water but it was sorted out very quickly. I highly recommend Casa Etnea and whole Sicily.

Wunderschön
Das Haus von Giuseppe ist traumhaft schön gelegen, der Blick ist einfach schön, das Haus geräumig, die Terrasse super. Giuseppe ist ein großartiger Gastgeber, super freundlich, hilfsbereit, voller Wissen und zuvorkommend. Er hat uns die Umgebung und eine Lavahöhle in der Nähe gezeigt. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder in sein sehr besonderes Haus am Ätna. Mille grazie

Eccellente sotto tutti i punti di vista
Il nostro soggiorno al antico casale è stata un esperienza oltre che positiva. La proprietà e molto confortevole e situata immersa nel verde, ai piedi del vulcano e a dir poco pittoresca. I proprietari si sono dimostrati di una squisitezza unica nei nostri riguardi, facendoci sentire a nostro agio per tutta la durata della nostra permanenza. Sicuramente una casa vacanze in cui soggiornare nei nostri prossimi viaggi in Sicilia.

Endroit et hôtes exceptionnels
Un beau coin de pays. Une jolie maison nichée dans la montagne, à quelques pas de l’Etna... Vue imprenable sur la mer dans un décor enchanteur. Nous pouvons entendre l’Etna gronder au loin... Des hôtes très disponibles, gentils, accueillants et maîtrisant parfaitement la langue française. Experts de l’Etna de surcroît. Ils sauront vous guider. La maison est au calme et incite à la détente. Parfait pour une famille, un couple ou entre amis. Je recommande ! Un merci tout particulier à Giuseppe 😀
