We had a great week staying at Trente's Sicilian summerhouse! What a great view (sea, coastline and the town Taormina) and what a comfort to have your own swimmingpool (again with a great view!) and jaccuzi. The whole property is very private and right in the middle of an olive-yard.
Like other guests alreay said, it's strongly recommended to hire a car. The small village Piedemonte Etneo is then just 5 minutes away and it takes you 15 minutes to reach the highway towards Catania and Messina. And with a car it's just very easy to explore this whole beautiful area, with towns like Taormina, Fiumefreddo, Catania, Enna and to bring a visit to the great, mighty Etna itself.
From Piedemonte Etneo a small road leads you to the house with at one point a 10% slope. This is the only obstacle on the road but no problem for good drivers.
The house itself was prety and well furnished. It even had a outside kitchen and a barbeque so with the nice Sicilian weather we had it was fun preparing your meal outside!
Trente and her husband were very friendly and helpfull. So we also want to thank them right away for the great vacation we had at their property!
Thanks!
Best Maurice and Maarten
