Villa holiday rentals in Piedimonte Etneo

Villa Gorna is an amazing location with fantastic hosts. The property is as described and photos are accurate. A lot of care was taken to put nice extra features. Orazio was very responsive and helpful, with offers available for tours etc. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend.

This place has been a highlight of our trip. It is peaceful, comfortable, very spacious and full of character. Our hosts were amazing, friendly, full of local knowledge and very prompt answering any questions we had. Our arrival was welcoming with delicious snacks provided and a free guided tour of how to get to the best local shops. It is close to everything that you would want to see and there is a restaurant within walking distance. The outside shower is amazing, but there are also 2 indoor alternatives. Jane and Bill

Nunzio was incredibly friendly and helpful! The house is beautiful and the location is amazing. The road to get there is a little rough but once you arrive you are greeted by 4 lovely cats and Bianca the dog. Everything went smoothly and Nunzio was always ready to help with whatever was necessary and gave lots of recommendations. Would recommend everyone to travel inwards instead of just staying along the coast and visit this place!

Alessandra’s property just north of Viagrande was an excellent location for us to explore Mt Etna and surrounding towns. Alessandra was a great communicator and accommodated our late check in after an evening flight into Catania. Our children enjoyed exploring the grounds of the property but the guest house itself is quite rustic (which was fine for us).

A great home away from home for the Christmas Holiday. The kitchen was amazing and allowed for us to make all our traditional Christmas dishes. Furthermore, the living room was cozy. The couch was perfect and allowed multiple people to curl up and watch Christmas movies. Additionally, the gaming room provided much needed space for board games, karaoke, puzzles, and reading. The house was immaculate, and our host was absolutely wonderful. We showed up late the first evening and our host made traditional Sicilian delicacies for us to eat. The arancini were delicious. I would 100% come back, especially in the summer so I can enjoy their beautiful pool. 100% recommend.

The villa was above and beyond what we imagined! The pictures do not do it justice! The hosts went above and beyond to welcome us into their own, helping us with every need and question. The included breakfasts were fantastic and we had the villa owner cook for us one night served by the pool and it was by far one of the best meals we had in all of Italy. The pool was such a special treat each evening after our day visiting Mt Etna (super close to access) or around town. We would highly recommend this place as it’s spacious (we had 8 and there was extra room) and the hosts really went above and beyond to help us with every need! The only downside we had was that we only stayed for 2 nights! We will return to Sicily just to stay at this villa again! Va bene! Grazie mille!

Wir haben eine wundervolle Urlaubswoche in Riposto verbracht. Essen, Getränke und das Meer sind einfach fantastisch. Zahlreiche Restaurants, Cafés sowie Fisch- und Gemüsemärkte. Die Villa, in der wir wohnten, war ein kleines, königliches Apartment. Alles ist im wunderschönen italienisch-sizilianischen Stil eingerichtet. Alles ist sehr dezent und cool. Danke, Rosaria.

Un angolo di magia tra le colline siciliane Abbiamo soggiornato in questo AirBnb incantato e ne siamo rimasti profondamente affascinati. Il consiglio è di arrivare prima del calare della sera: il GPS suggerisce strade molto strette, che possono mettere un po’ in apprensione, ma seguendo le indicazioni di Cinzia si raggiunge il luogo in tutta serenità. Ne vale davvero la pena! Il luogo è semplicemente magico, curato nei minimi dettagli, immerso nella bellezza selvaggia e autentica della natura. Ogni angolo racconta una storia, ogni dettaglio trasmette amore e attenzione. Durante la notte, abbiamo assistito allo spettacolo suggestivo delle luci dell’Etna che brillavano dietro la collina: un’esperienza che ci ha lasciato senza parole. Come insegnante di yoga, posso dire che è anche un luogo perfetto per organizzare ritiri: silenzio, bellezza e ispirazione si fondono in un’armonia che nutre l’anima. Grazie di cuore per questa esperienza così speciale.

This was our first visit to Sicily. We were a group of 8 with 3 families. We had plenty of space & privacy. The home is truly as beautiful as the photos & is like a step back in time. Maria is an amazing artist who added her special touches all over the home This was Francesco’s grandfathers home built in the late 1800’s. The backyard overlooks the town below & the ocean w Mt Etna on the other side. Magnificent! The added bonus of Rosaria’s services made us feel incredibly pampered. Her services are an additional fee but are very well worth it. She cooked 2 amazing meals for us (her chicken cacciatore is the absolute best!). She also helped secure a restaurant reservation & transportation. Note that a driver or rental car is a must. Unless you are fluent in Italian you will need translation apps. Truly a lifesaver as Sicilians often do not speak English. We would definitely stay here again if we are ever fortunate enough to visit the beautiful island of Sicily.

Excellent stay in a peaceful village close to Mount Etna and wine country

This was the most magical Airbnb experience ever. Guiseppe and Giulia are the most hospitable Hosts I have ever come into contact with. They went above and beyond to make our stay the best. The villa is incredible with massive outdoor grounds to enjoy and a very beautiful large deep clean pool. Inside the villa is exactly as described but better! They were gracious and filled the fridges with many drinks to enjoy. They met us at the toll booth and escorted us to the villa and then drove us around town later to familiarize ourselves to the area and provided many dining recommendations. They were even so kind as to make reservations under their family name and deliver the most amazing desserts I have ever had! The location of the villa is perfect for day trips to Savoca and Taormina and surrounding areas. To have such a beautiful peaceful villa to return to made this our own slice of heaven! I would return in a heart beat. Thank you Giuseppe and Giulia for the most amazing stay.

My family and I stayed at Villa Vittorianna for a week in June. The property is beautiful, with panoramic views of Giardini Naxos, the Adriatic Sea + Taormina (from the pool) and Mt. Etna (from the rooftop deck). The surrounding neighborhood had easy access to many excellent restaurants, cafes and beach clubs. Emanuele was a great host and Oli, the local property manager was extremely friendly and responsive. I recommend this stay for anyone looking for a luxurious beach getaway in Sicily. We will remember this week for years to come.

Beautiful villa, spacious outdoor area, saltwater pool was fantastic. Fully equipped kitchen and BBQ area. Very clean and well presented throughout. Communication with host was faultless, all questions and calls were answered promptly. Villa was very private, we hired a car but Uber was very reliable and good value. Local restaurant Blue Ice was very good. Highlight was visiting nearby Taormina both on an evening and during the day. I would most certainly recommend Villa Flara and the beautiful island of Sicily. 🍋💕

This house was one of the most amazing places I've ever stayed. We went for a week and a half on a family trip, and it could not have been more incredible. Somehow, the grounds are even more lush and beautiful and spacious than the photos make them look. Incredible views of Mt. Etna and innumerable spots for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Our manager of the property was more like a concierge. Gianluca was more welcoming and helpful than anyone I've encountered in years renting Airbnb places. We will surely be back and can't recommend it highly enough for anyone checking it out!

I cannot speak highly enough of Larry and Reina’s Taormina rental. The bedrooms were comfortable and clean and the bathrooms were spotless. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances along with a comprehensive manual/binder that featured walk through directions and manuals for everything in the rental. The host, Luca, was kind enough to stock a few items for us which were waiting when we arrived. There are a seemingly endless number of restaurants and eateries near, including a delicious spot right next door. Our stay was perfect. Thank you again, we hope to stay with you again when we retato Taormina.

We loved our time in this beautifully maintained piece of history. Everything is preserved with a lot care & love. Our kids spent most of their time in the expansive courtyard. This property is located in a small charming but a self-selfsufficient village, there are a few shops, a bakery & a good supermarket 2 mins walk from the Villa. I would like thank Francesca the was of our stay. Daniella was also amazing. we would love to come back again.

It’s a beautiful villa tucked away on top of a hill! The villa is clean and utterly beautiful!! The hosts left some gifts for us like wine and olive oil. Just an amazing experience. The views from this place are unmatched, even at night! The outdoor space is perfect for hanging out.

Lovely house tucked away behind the bustling main street in beautiful Taormina. It is very close to a number of restaurants and eateries, yet is private and peaceful. Livio was a very attentive host, giving us many excellent recommendations and offering us the opportunity to leave our bags at the house to fit in with our arrival and departure. Highly recommend!

Beautiful stay in Aci Catena. The space comfortably accommodated all four of us and the beds were one of the most comfortable of our whole trip. The outdoor area was amazing with the pool surrounded by many olive, lemon and peach trees. Daria was very willing to help with every question we had and made many recommendations throughout our stay. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quaint stay, yet so close to everything.

Beautiful home! If you are staying in Catania and visiting surrounding areas, Isabella’s home is perfect. This was a quiet, private, spacious oasis of a property in the middle of the busy city life. Centrally located to visit the key attractions. Isabella was the perfect hostess! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed in their family home that has been in their family for generations. This home was great for our family of 6 and had enough space for everyone to spread out. The grounds and pool are beautiful. Isabella organized a traditional Sicilian meal to be cooked as well as a fun pizza night utilizing the authentic pizza oven. Isabella is a perfect hostess and provided us great information including a boat tour which was the best. What a lovely, and welcoming property!

Marcos place can only be discribed as a small piece of paradise,the gardens are very well maintained and look very beautiful.the pool is perfect to relax on hot days and the view is amazing.the property is so clean and is equipped with everything you could need for long or short stay and very comfortable.i had an amazing weekend here and definitely recommend Marcos place ..go and see for yourself .Marco is a great host and very responsive to all messages and gave local recommendations and made booking for a restaurant for us too and very friendly and you are in good hands at Marcos place and Luigi is great and available also , thank you both for a magical weekend.Definately recommend and will definitely come back. thank you again Bren

Wir haben uns vom ersten Moment an sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Unterkunft ist wunderschön - wir fanden sie sogar noch schöner als auf den Bildern. Die Straße ist zwar holprig und mit Schlaglöchern, aber für normale Autos kein Problem. Das ist es auf jeden Wert, da die Unterkunft etwas ganz besonderes ist. Der Pool war toll und alles super gepflegt. Maria war bei Fragen super erreichbar. Es war ein toller Aufenthalt und die Unterkunft ist sehr zu empfehlen.

Das Haus liegt am Füße des Ätnas mit Blick auf den Vulkan und das Meer. Der große Garten mit Zitronen- und Orangenbäumen hat einen schönen Pool, der allerdings renoviert werden sollte, da die Mosaik-Fliesen ziemlich ausgebrochen sind. Das Haus ist ideal für eine große Familie mit 3 Doppel Schlafzimmern und 3 Bädern dazu noch 1 Einzelzimmer und ein Kinderzimmer. Es gab genügend frische Handtücher und extra Pool- Handtücher, saubere Bettwäsche, reichlich Gläser und Geschirr. Die Küche war gut bestückt, manche Teile nicht auf dem neuesten Stand. Die Einrichtung besteht aus alten italienischen Möbeln, dazu Ikea Kleinteilen. Das historische Haus ist ganz typisch für die Region, der bauliche Zustand ist für Mitteleuropäer grenzwertig. Schön ist der Essplatz im Garten unter dem großen Schirm. Ein Koch kann gebucht werden, das war super! Leider befindet sich eine Event Location in direkter Nähe, die sehr laute Musik bis 2 Uhr hat uns sehr gestört. Trotzdem hatten wir eine schöne Zeit!

What a wonderful stay we had in salvatore’s beautiful home. It was everything we hoped for and more, and it is actually the best Airbnb we have stayed at (and we’ve stayed in many over the years). The house was stunning - beautifully done up and such a comfortable, luxurious and homely stay. Salvatore and family were fabulous hosts and even stayed up to welcome us after our flight was delayed and arriving late at night. They left us some food supplies - absolutely faultless. Everything had been thought of and was supplied in the home, just amazing. We will definitely be back! Thank you Salvatore and family for a perfect stay!
