The place takes you right back to basics, but is charming and beautiful accommodation. The location is very remote but set on a hill with amazing views of Etna, the sea and Giarre(?).
The outdoor kitchen is a beautiful space to hide from the sun in the heat of the day and a lovely area to prepare meals. The balcony overlooking Etna and the sea has the most amazing views, you can just sit in silence in awe.
The bedroom space is a great size, with en suite shower room.
The tips on what to do and where to see to avoid mass tourism were fantastic and we worked our way around the map on their recommendations which did not disappoint.
We joined Cristina and Angelo for supper one evening with the other guests, which was delicious (and tailored to our allergies), using all of their lovely home grown produce. This cost €20 per head but was a lovely experience. They are lovely, warm and welcoming hosts always happy to help, and their hospitality couldn’t be faulted.
Cristina and Angelo have created such an amazing space to enjoy their surroundings, and although the place is basic, you don’t need anything more when you’re in such a beautiful landscape. Cristina and Angelo definitely are ‘super hosts’ and I can guarantee you would enjoy your stay with them as much as we did.
