“Very nice, new, modern and clean apartment. Very quiet. Comfortable mattress, small common kitchen with a nice terrace. Dedicated parking, guarded by a gate. Nice and very responsive contact with the host. Good base for hiking in the Etna region, with Etna south and north each 20 to 30 minutes away by car. ”
“The hosts are remarkable people. The property is basically an estate that has a couple rental rooms. Rooms are spacious with balconies overlooking an olive grove. I cannot say enough positive about the home and the gracious hosts. Highly recommended.”
“We went on a tour of Sicily in May 2025, and only spent one night at Dimora Cottanera - but it was our favourite stay of the vacation!
The grounds and the views were stunning, the facilities first-class and our room was amazing.
But the absolute highlight was the wine tasting, which was so much fun and incredible value. The food we had was delicious and complemented the wine superbly. And our host, Salvo, made the experience so special.
We absolutely loved our limited time at Dimora……
“We stayed here while we visited Mt Etna, Taormina and Bronte and it was a great location. The hotel was very clean, new, good dinner (although we wished for a bigger menu to include pizza), a nice breakfast. The staff were all wonderful! Only issue we had was that Riposto was very dirty. They say it’s because of the government not picking up the trash, etc but clearly it’s a pretty bad problem. It was gross. So as long as there are no expectations of the town,people will be thrilled to stay……
“Friendly welcome. Perfect communication beforehand. Beautiful big rooms. Gorgeous lounge for refreshments. Tasty breakfast. Good location for Etna Sud just 30mins drive away. Nicosia winery also a must visit close by. Hotel San Anton deserves a stay! ”
“Il Sentiero was a wonderful surprise. It is a very serene and picturesque agriturismo with tons of olive and lemon trees. Owner/operator Salvo is a very hospitable and lovely person. We chose to eat there each evening, and he never failed to provide us with tasty meals. We highly recommend this place for visitors to the Catania area. It is located about 40 minutes north of the airport, close to an autostrada exit, and is convenient for visiting places such as Mt. Etna, Taormina, and Messina.”
“Nous avons passé un séjour parfait à l'hôtel Belladonna. L'hôtel est magnifique, propre et joliment décoré. La chambre est spacieuse et le couchage très confortable. La vue sur l'etna est magnifique, l'hôtel est très bien placé pour visiter la région de Catane. Le parking est un plus. Le petit déjeuner était exceptionnel, il y avait de tout à volonté. Le petit plus est la gentillesse du personnel et le restaurant sur place qui est excellent ! A refaire sans hésiter. ”
“Perfect spot for a relaxing spa eve after. The view from the room (back) is breathtaking. The staff is very kind and helpful. Within walking distance of Zeferana, where there are plenty of restaurants.”
“Séjour très agréable dans une très belle maison tout près de l’Etna. Le gérant est adorable, aux petits soins avec ses hôtes et donne plein de bons conseils. Accueil et petit déjeuner exceptionnels !
