We arrived late because of flight delays and were greeted like old friends by Zaira. We felt immediately welcome and struck by the personal welcome - there were cold drinks and sweets in the kitchen and the flat was spotless. Woke up to the view of Etna and the coastline all the way to Calabria, a beautiful garden with fruit and olive trees and plenty of space for the children to play in. The flat is beautifully decorated, spacious and airy; we never needed to turn on the air conditioner. The house is close to several restaurants and cafes and the village is charming. In order to get around you need a car and to be comfortable driving on narrow roads. You will be rewarded with access to amazing countryside and so many things to see and do. We went on a tour of the mountain which Zaira organized with an exceptionally knowledgeable tour guide (David). Etnaland was also a hit with the children and less than 1 hour's drive away. The area has so much to offer: sea, sand, mountain, volcano...
Zaira: Thank you so much for making us feel so welcome, for organizing the delivery of our lost luggage and for your mother's delicious pop cakes. This is one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed and we would love to come back.
