Show All 5 Reviews

Overall:
The villa is furnished with beautiful antiques.
Enjoyed Most:
Size of master bedroom and the kitchen.
Enjoyed Least:
Location near a busy highway. With no air conditioning, the windows must be open. In addition, although the site had satellite television, all non-Italian channels were blocked!
Surrounding Area:
This villa is well situated to someone who wants to tour Sicily by car.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Piedmonte Etneo was within walking distance, but there were no restaurants of interest and no shopping. It really is a town with little interest in tourism. However, groceries and other essentials can be obtained close by.
Tips or Restaurants:
This villa is best suited to a large family where someone speaks Italian. The bedrooms would be best suited to a family rather than a group of couples. The residents do not speak English, but try to be very helpful.
Directions:
Directions from Catania airport were no problem, but a navigation system is a real plus for anyone touring by car
