Our two-night stay at Maria Francesca & Vincenza's beautiful villa in the charming village of San Pietro Clarenza -- some 12 km from Catania -- was a delight. We were welcomed by Sasi, the custodian of the property, who was very friendly & helpful all throughout our stay. Our living space included a private entry to a spacious living-room, fully-equipped kitchen, huge bedroom with en-suite bathroom. We particularly enjoyed the property's well-tended garden and its tranquility every morning at breakfast. There's also a pool & a magical library on the property, both of which we did not have the time to enjoy, unfortunately. We received great recommendations from the proprietors and can wholeheartedly recommend the nearby restaurant "Giardino di Bacco," in which we had the most refined Sicilian dishes during our stay on the island. This is a very special property with people who understand hospitality. It is not only perfect for anyone wishing to visit Etna and its environs, but also an experience in and of itself. Highly recommended!
