This was such a special place and we loved spending time in nature after 5 days of hectic travel in Rome and Naples. For us, Sicily was all about Mt. Etna and this was the perfect location for this, we arrived at Refugio Sapienza in 15 minutes.
The property is enchanting with so much to offer. We didn't anticipate driving past lava fields and seeing the lava that surrounded the property and we were in awe that we could just go outside and walk onto an old lava flow. We loved it so much that we were very happy to spend time at the house rather than drive around and explore the island.
Giovanni and his family are so lovely and took every care to ensure we had everything we needed. We have beautiful memories of our stay here that will be with us forever.
