It would be hard to find more welcoming and hospitable hosts than Carmela, Vito and their son Nino. They really will do their utmost to make sure you have everything you need to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
I would especially recommend staying here with younger children. Carmela, Vito and Nino truly love children and have everything a young family might need.
The guest apartments and owner’s quarters are located around a courtyard which is one level up from street level and is fenced in. In the courtyard there are a play house, slide and several other play things for the children and a Sicilian oven and barbecue for the guests to use. On the other side there is a down sloping garden where several dozen turtles roam with which the children can play.
The front door gives easy foot acces to the center of Acireale. Parking is at the rear of the property and is fenced in by an automatic gate. The house is nicely equipped with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, baby cots, baby chairs and high speed internet.
Acireale is perfectly situated to explore the east coast of Sicily with Taormina and the beaches to the north, Catania and Syracuse to the south and mount Etna directly to the east.
As the family was so very kind we just wished we were able to converse a little more with them as our Italian and French (which Carmela speaks) is as absent as their English.
