We were surprised! Giovanni and Patricia really make you feel very welcome. They actively surprise you with small things while you are there without being intrusive. Giovanni even drove us to the village to show best parking places and a more traditional restaurant. They only recently started this place and showed us pictures of what it looked like before they started. They made it wonderful. It is close to the southern side of Mt Etna, but we also drove around to the other side in a bit over half an hour. The other side is more silent and a nice place for walks.
