We didn't have the pleasure to meet Maria Francesca in person but we spoke with her multiple times over the phone and she was always very helpful with tips and responsive at our requests. Grazia and Giusy were both dedicate and careful hosts at the house and provided us with all the amenities that we needed. The villa is wonderfully curated and taken care of in both interiors and exteriors (the photos speak truthfully for themselves). By car, it is conveniently located about 25-30min away from central Catania and about 20 min from Nicolosi, the southern "gate" to Etna. It provides you with the necessary relaxation needed before and after a day spent exploring the amazing surroundings. We were also teleworking for a few days and the Wi-Fi connection was always steady and very fast. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay at Maria Francesca's place (as long as they have a car at their disposal).
