Don't hesitate, just book. This place is a perfect way to experience Sicily. The grounds are huge so you can spend your days meandering through the fruit trees, heading down to the beach (which is basically private) for a swim in the warm water, or even just relaxing outside with a glass of wine.
It's also a perfect place for those wanting to experience the big landmarks of Sicily in a few days. You're a short walk from the beach and a short drive from Etna, two things that were must-sees for our stay. And if you really want to, you can take day trips out to Taormina and Catania. But honestly, once you get to this place, you won't want to go anywhere.
Oh, and talk to Alessandra about doing a cooking lesson. You'll be able to learn simple and delicious recipes that you can take home and use for life. But the real treat here is the chance to spend a night with Alessandra and some other guests. Alessandra told us some great stories and we met a wonderful couple from Frankfurt this way.
P. S. I haven't seen other reviews say this yet, but Alessandra has two beautiful dogs who are very sweet and friendly. We spent the first night hanging out with them gazing out at the moon rising over the sea. Seriously, you should stay here.
