Maria's location was great for getting to Catania and Mt. Etna. We explored Belpasso and Nicolosi (both less than 10minute drive) and would recommend Nicolosi for dinners, etc. Maria was so kind and takes great pride in sharing her family's traditions of wine making and explaining the process (incredibly interesting). Beds were comfortable and clean. For an old home, everything is updated. There are AC units in the rooms so we were cool. She provides keys, but honestly felt safe enough that we never locked anything. The outside is dreamy and you can even see Mt. Etna from the driveway. Would recommend and would stay here again. Enjoy!
