We spent only 4 days at the Casa and we wish we could stay more! It is a perfect place for a family vacation. It feels like you come to your granny's house, it so cosy and comfortable. Everything there is made with love and care. And all of this is thanks to the great family! Serena, Pietro and Daniela are the best hosts we've ever have so far. They were very thoughtful, kind and attentive. We were provided with homemade olive oil, wine, local walnuts and fruits from their garden. Everything was delicious! One day Pietro even got us some sweets from the local bakery. It was so nice and unexpected!
They gave us a lot of recommendations about the surroundings, great wine recommendations.
As for formalities - the house is very well equipted, you'll have everything you need. There is a brand new pool. Unfortunately we didn't try it because it was quite cold for swimming (early November), but still it was perfectly clean. It's a great location to visit all nearest sights (Taormina, Randazzo, Etna, Gole Alcantara, Acireale etc.)
We highly recommend Casa Ricciolino! I hope next time we'll have more time to spend at this beautiful Casa!
