Claudia's house and gardens are absolutely beautiful and she is a great, friendly host, always there on the end of the phone if you need to message her about something. The pool is a good size and the views are just beautiful. The villa was cool and comfortable and fitted out with everything we needed. We had such a lovely time.

This is an incredible find - the outdoor spaces is amazing. Spacious, beautiful garden with a wonderful pool and different areas to enjoy the incredible views while you eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The house is a cute place that has all the things you'll need. It has three bedrooms and a full kitcken and washing machine, but that doesn't matter because you'll spend all of your time outside! If this place is available, you need to stop looking around and rent it now. The host, Claudia, is fantastic and will help with you everything you need.

What a relaxing week! We had a wonderful time at this villa. The pool, garden and outside eating spaces were fantastic - with wonderful views. Cottage allowed us to experience authentic ‘cosy’ Italian living - with a welcome of water, beer and aperol spritz! Claudia and her family were so lovely and helpful. The area is stunning (gorge and mountains) and really enjoyed local restaurants such as the Alcantara Bistrot (Gaggi) and I sapori dell' Alcantara ex trattoria del corso. We did a great cooking course in Taormina and enjoyed a trip to Syracusa. All in all a fantastic trip and would definitely return. Thank you Claudia!!

We have had a fantastic stay at this property. Claudia and Nino were extremely welcoming and so helpful. The house has everything in it that you need, very well equipped. All the essentials and plenty of towels. Washing machine, iron, ironing board, hairdryer all provided, so minimal luggage needed. The pool is beautiful, and perfect for relaxing around. Sun doesnt start going down till after 7, so plenty of time in the evening if youve been out for the day. There is a bakers 2 minutes down the road where you can buy fresh bread every morning, delicious. We used the outside eating area every day for all our meals. Very peaceful and relaxing. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful escape, then this is the perfect property for you. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would have no hesitation in recommending it. Ideal places to visit from here are Mount Etna, Etna land water park, Syracuse, Gole Alcantara and Giardini Naxos. We had a fantastic time and were sorry when our trip came to an end.
