This hidden Mediterranean retreat features a historic lava stone cave dating back to the 1669 eruption of Mount Etna, together with a peaceful garden and jacuzzi. Located in a quiet residential area of Catania, just 10 minutes by metro from the city center, it offers the relaxed atmosphere of an authentic Sicilian country house close to the vibrant heart of the city.

We are delighted to welcome you to our charming two-bedroom Mediterranean retreat, accommodating up to five guests. Built on the lava flow of Mount Etna’s great eruption of 1669, the house still preserves a fragment of the original volcanic stone inside an ancient lava cave carved into the property.

Each bedroom has its own private bathroom, while the house also offers a fully equipped kitchen, free Wi-Fi and private off-road parking. Outside, guests can relax in the peaceful garden with outdoor seating and a jacuzzi available from April to October.

Located in a quiet residential area just 10 minutes by metro from Catania city centre, the house combines the authentic atmosphere of a Sicilian country home with easy access to the city and the sea.

Thanks to its location, Il Pozzo e l’Ulivo is the perfect starting point for discovering the beauty of Sicily’s eastern coast. Guests can easily enjoy memorable day trips to the Riviera dei Ciclopi (10 km), Mount Etna (25 km), Taormina (50 km) and Siracusa (65 km), while returning in the evening to the peaceful atmosphere of the garden and lava stone retreat.

We live in another apartment of the same property. We easily communicate in English, French, Spanish, Czech or Italian. Therefore, we will be more than pleased to help you to design your perfect holiday in Sicily
