"This property is located on a mountain summit adjacent to Mt. Etna. The views are stunning, the installations are excellent and the hosts are charming and very helpful. Our stay at this B&B was one of the highlights of our trip in Sicily."
"It would be difficult to overstate just how wonderful this place is. The rooms are clean and relatively spacious, the breakfast is wonderful, the owner is absolutely phenomenal (he even assisted me with gassing up my car before we left!), and the pool is absolutely magnificent…I’ve never seen a nicer pool outside of a resort!"
"Lovely hotel in an excellent location, but what makes the experience really special is the amazing staff. Everyone has been incredibly accommodating, helpful and friendly, and we appreciated the attention to detail throughout the stay. "
"We liked the Hotel overall. Some details were not perfect, for example the bathroom could be in a better condition. The a la carte breakfast was very good but very small portions. All in all a good hotel for 1-2 nights to explore the Etna area."

"**A Hidden Sicilian Paradise - Absolutely Magical**
Our stay at Palazzo Previtera was nothing short of extraordinary. This isn't just accommodation - it's a transformative experience that exceeded every expectation.
Alfio and Constanza are exceptional hosts whose warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made our trip truly magical. Their unmatched hospitality creates an atmosphere where you feel like cherished guests rather than mere visitors.
The culinary experience with chefs Alberto and Kaito was a highlight we'll treasure forever. They masterfully blended expertise with fun, creating not just a meal but a joyful learning experience that engaged all our senses.
The property itself is breathtaking - a perfect harmony of meticulous curation and effortless elegance. Walking through the sprawling gardens feels like entering a dream, with vibrant pomegranates, aromatic sage, and an abundance of flowers and trees creating a natural paradise. Both the charming cottage and main building maintain this whimsical magic while providing pristine comfort.
The museum component adds incredible depth, offering rich insights into local history and culture that enhance the entire experience.
Palazzo Previtera is truly a hidden gem that delivers an unforgettable escape into beauty, hospitality, and authentic Sicilian charm. We cannot recommend it highly enough!"
Superb villa with private pool near Taormina, Sicily
10/10 Excellent
"We (10 people including family/friends & children) had a fantastic stay at this Relais de Placa! The villa was absolutely gorgeous and beautifully maintained, with all the amenities we could ask for, making it a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. The pool and grounds are beautiful, and the bedrooms are spacious, each with their own ensuite. The kitchen was a cook's dream, and we made some wonderful meals to eat out on the big table in the garden.Carmelo, the owner clearly cares a lot about his guests and the property, which is wonderful. Sometimes, he would drop by or check in — a sign of his attentiveness, though it’s worth noting if you prefer more privacy. He helped us book transport to a winery, and also U Pacciu, the best meat restaurant in the area. It's definitely worth a visit if you are carnivores like us!There were quite a few guidelines to keep in mind, but overall, an amazing stay. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a lush,well-equipped home away from home."
"This hotel was a "wow" all around. The photos don't do it justice:
1) The area: the town it was in is super cute. Everyone knows one another in the area. Views of Etna were incredible. Just a very beautiful region of sicily.
2) The service: the front desk helped us book a helicopter tour of etna. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, it was fantastic!
3) Spa: Wow wow wow - beautiful turkish bath, and you get it all to yourself with the fee. My husband and I enjoyed this immensely!
4) Restaurant: Probably the best meal we had in sicily. Incredibly creative, beautifully plated dishes. Props to the chef!
5) The rooms - baroque revival, with hand painted ceilings, just amazing. Comfy beds and nice rainfall showers in bathroom. "
"The property is lovely, lots of flowers and a very nice pool and sun deck. Our room was very nice and clean. The bathroom is spacious and well appointed. We had dinner there and were very surprised at the quality of the meal. Breakfast was very nice and the service was great. We recommend il Borgo!"
"Perfect stay to relax and unwind. The room and outdoor areas were clean and well maintained. The outdoor pool space was the highlight of my stay and provided a haven to swim read and rest. Angela and Mauro were very accommodating and friendly hosts"
