Me and my family loved everything about this villa. It is located in a quiet location, it is outstanding and the views are mesmerizing - if you wake up early enough you can see Aetna itself. The pool makes for a perfect dip in the morning and afternoon.
The villa was located in the side of a mountain, which means that is not as hot and suffocating as the rest of the coastal area. However, it is a close drive to both Catania and Taormina for an evening out.
Alberto is a great host!! Make sure to ask him for local suggestions and he will point you to some outstanding places of the beaten track.
We plan on visiting again.
