"Everything was perfect."

"Gorgeous vineyard resort on Mount Etna. Lovely views and wonderful locally sourced foods. Highly recommend!"

"We have stayed in 5* hotels worldwide. However I need to admit, this little hotel exceeded our expectations. The service from the start to the end was pure class. Before arriving at the hotel, I emailed regarding airport transfer and it was arranged within minutes. I also asked for an iron, and the iron was placed in our room before our arrival. My husband had a wonderful massage with Jacqueline. Absolutely first class. And I needed to do my hair for a wedding we were attending, however the salon was closed. But to my surprise the Owner Kim opened the salon especially just for me which I have never experienced before and Jacqueline especially went to pick up the hairdresser and personally brought her to the hotel to do my hair and then dropped the hairdresser back. All that she did in her own personal time just to help me and I had so many compliments for my hair, the hairdresser was absolutely amazing. I mean I cannot fault this hotel. Everything was clean and yes you can see mount Etna from the entrance. Overall it was a beautiful experience. I recommend this hotel to anyone visiting, you will not be disappointed. It was beyond our expectations. Thank you for the beautiful hospitality and experience. I wish you all the best. "

"I felt like I could have been in a Room with a View - The gentle sunshine, the old house hidden in lemon trees, stone floors, views of Etna, family dinners. The family that runs the place are grandchildren of the owner. A friendly dog, Lily, is the official greeter. Everything is clean, rustic, the food is good and you feel very at home. Everywhere you look is a picture. We slept well. It is not far out in the country at all, but it feels very far away. A great place. We ate breakfast and dinner. One night we had the pasta the “class” had made that afternoon. "

"Fantastic value, warm and friendly hosts, Etna views in front of our balcony! Loved our breakfasts and dinner too."

"The staff very much made this hotel worth maximum ratings. They were able to accommodate my need for two separate beds without issue and honor what I thought I was booking. The breakfast was great and made the stay a good value. The gym and pool close at 2000 - it would be nice if these were open longer. "

"Overall excellent experience (staff, comfort, meals), with the exception of the bathroom, which needs an update, especially the tiny shower"

"Beautiful place, great service. Plan you transportation ahead of time. "

"The location is amazing. The property has great views over the vineyards in both directions towards Mt. Etna to the North and the Ionian sea and across to the Italian mainland to the South. The pool area is nice but could get a little busy and difficult to snag a sunbed. Our room was ok. It is a 3 star hotel but even so it was a little more rustic and functional rather than luxurious but it was clean and quiet, and the air-con worked well… unfortunately the same could not be said for the in-room wifi and when we mentioned this it was dismissed by reception as something “that happens” and was never fixed. We didn’t feel like driving at night and so ate at the restaurant both nights of our stay. The food was good but we made the mistake of over-ordering on the first night as we didn’t quite understand the “set menu”. It has to be said that the second night was like a different restaurant, same good food but it was much friendlier and there were more staff working who were far more interactive with us as guests. We were touring Sicily for 2 weeks and chose to stay here as it’s a winery and who wouldn’t want to stay at a vineyard on Mount Etna? In terms of setting it delivers on that romantic ideal but we really felt that it was lacking in terms of hospitality. Unlike everywhere else we stayed in Sicily this hotel was not particularly welcoming and we felt mostly like we were an inconvenience to the staff rather than paying guests. "
