We stayed at Vito, Andreina and Alessandro's for 5 nights. From being picked up personally at the airport by Vito to trying Andreina's homecooked swordfish our stay was fantastic. The family was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home in their beautiful apartment. A breakfast highlight was ricotta with drizzled local honey. Alessandro was incredibly generous and drove us to Etna, Taormina and also on a road trip down south to Syracuse, and Modica. Amazing! Nothing was too much for them and they even allowed us to do a load of laundry before we left. The apartment is perfectly situated to walk into the main part of town and the balcony (where we were welcomed with home made granita and brioche) has a perfect view of Mt. Etna in the distance. If you are going to Sicily I recommend making Catania your home base on staying with this lovely family.
