Family-friendly holiday rentals in Catania

Great place to get to know Sicily east coast. The Jacuzzi is very nice

Really beautiful location, very quiet, you can hardly hear anything. Something for people who seek peace and quiet. And Salvatore was a very friendly host.

Alberto was a fantastic, friendly host. He gave us reccomendations, booked us a great value return taxi and even taught us how to make pizza! The villa had a breath-taking view and it felt like our own little mountain retreat. The only downside is that the driveway is very steep and long - we had to leave our rental cars at the bottom of the road (and scratched one car from attempting to drive up it!). But, if you're ok with a steep walk up, then don't let it put you off staying in the beautiful location.

Great place to stay, 7-10 minutes walk to the centre and easy parking. Three flights of stairs as apartment at the top, so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Overall great stay and would recommend.

Beautiful, quite and charming little house ( trulli).with a great terrace and a fantastic jacuzzi in the middle of no where but yet only 10 min. ( by car) from 2 beautiful villages: Locorotondo and Cisternino. The trulli is nicely decorated, with airco! Only 1 bed for 2p. It was great to enjoy the jacuzzi early in the morning and late in the night. Everything is very clean and Luciana was of great help.

This stay was one of the best Airbnb stays we’ve ever had. Mostly because we fell in love with Praiano and the pool and view of this place is unmatched. Roberta was so helpful in booking a sunset cruise with transport, dinner recs and so much more. I will dream of this stay for a very long time.

Where to start... prior to our arrival she provided her information so she could help pick us up with our bags and give us a personal tour. She treats her home with pride and her guests like family. Giovanna and her family all helped make our stay memorable and comfortable. She was flexible with us since we had a late wedding to attend and really cared about us personally. She remembers the little details like what you like for breakfast and even wished my husband a happy birthday. The view is beautiful, the room is cozy, her food is made with love and my heart is so full. My husband and I left feeling so cared for. Everyone is respectful of space and Giovanna is just a lovely person I hope to visit again. If you want an ordinary experience go elsewhere but if you want something extraordinary visit Giovanna <3

Livio was a very accommodating host. Great location. We had a great stay!

Highly recommend! The view is incredible and the space is very clean. Concetta made us breakfast each morning and her cat visited as well! There are around 260 steps up from the road so be prepared, but it’s well worth it to stay there. It’s nice to be separate from the busier area. She was extremely communicative and a friendly host. She was very helpful with navigating the town and recommendations.

Our stay at the castle was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, Gisella and her team made us feel so welcome and cared for. The castle itself is breathtaking—steeped in history, beautifully preserved, and full of charm at every turn. We were lucky enough to have a guided tour of the castle despite the language barrier, and somehow, we understood everything perfectly! From the grand halls to the former prison cells, each room held a story, and the gardens were simply magical. It was the perfect setting for rest, inspiration, and celebration. We left with our hearts full and minds buzzing with creativity for our own project, Samraj-Brown Eyewear, this place is that inspiring! Thank you for going above and beyond. We’ll cherish these memories forever. 💫

very responsive and helpful host. the accommodation has been intelligently renovated and offers a pleasant living space. the equipment meets expectations

It was a lovely place and very easy to get to the main tourist spots and harbour. Paola gave us great recommendations for restaurants and things to do nearby.

Helorus Villa was nice , the peaceful secluded surroundings of lemon tree orchards is very nice but also an easy 5-10min drive to the supermarket and Noto township and 15mins to the beach. The pool area is very nice although not a lot of shade . We stayed in the upstairs villa and had friends staying downstairs which made for nice meals together on the balcony . The Villa was nice , tidy , well equiped , good air conditioning and had a delightful welcome hamper with some basics which was greatly appreciated as we arrived after a long day of travel. Roberto was a very responsive and helpful and the grounds keeper who lives on site but away from the villa and never intruded was also very friendly .

Hands down the best Airbnb of our trip! We loved the view, the apartment was so luxurious and spacious and the town was just brilliant! Our host was so helpful and responsive, definitely coming back here at some point!

Nice and comfortable stay in a baroque home with a splendid view over the old town. The house is well equipped if you want to cook and it even has orange trees, rosemary, lavender outside in the garden.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that our host’s number one priority was making sure our vacation was absolutely amazing—and they exceeded every expectation. The property itself is nothing short of breathtaking. Nestled in the heart of Sicily, it perfectly blends comfort, elegance, and authenticity. Every detail of the home feels curated with love and care, and the views are something out of a dream. What truly sets this experience apart is how immersed you become in Sicilian culture. Whether it was the local delicacies waiting for us upon arrival, the warm neighborhood vibe, or the host’s thoughtful recommendations for places to eat and explore, we felt completely connected to the spirit of Sicily. Our host went above and beyond every step of the way—always available, incredibly kind, and genuinely passionate about ensuring we had the best time possible. This wasn’t just a place to stay—it was an experience we’ll never forget.

Everything from the booking to check in and recommendations was great!!! But the best part was the view. 5 stars…we loved our stay and already want to return

The villa is great, and the garden and pool are huge and very attractive, and also well maintained. Paul is an excellent host, friendly and responsive. You definitely need a car here as there are no pavements on the road outside the gates and the traffic whizzes along it. The local town, Trecastagni, is nice, with bars, restaurants and shops of all sorts. Overall our stay was excellent. The only downside was a building site next door that was noisy and created fumes and dust during the week, but I guess that won't be forever. Already missing it, the morning swim especially, and of course the sight (and sound) of Etna. Highly recommended. Visit Taormina while you're there. And try the Etna DOC wines.

Excellent host. Wonderful, unique property!

Beautiful accommodation in the middle of a cultivated, lush green property with a fantastic view towards the east coast. Everything was as expected based on the pictures and description, even a little prettier. Cleanliness top, tranquility and panorama fantastic. The reception is super warm, recommendations for excursions very good. The location is of course a bit off the beaten path, but absolutely OK to reach by car through narrow alleys. You just don't find something like this directly in the village. Overall, an absolute recommendation!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A stunning Sicilian escape The villa was beautiful and spacious, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The long journey up the mountain was absolutely worth it, the view over the valley, the sea, and the surrounding villages is simply breathtaking. The house was very clean and well-equipped with all the essentials. The host was also very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. This region is truly one of the most spectacular areas you can experience in Sicily, highly recommended!

Super flexible thanks for your care. Rescheduling asap

Beautiful villa in the heart of Puglia!!!!! Clean, spacious, perfect location. The pool was fantastic and the outdoor patio was perfect to enjoy during the day and night. Just 15 minutes from Monopoli and Polignano a Mare - super convenient. Tiziana (host) was extremely helpful and responsive when needed. Would highly recommend this place!!!

Andreas house is like a home away from home. It is thoughtfully decorated, the lavastonehouse is charming and inside it has everything you need. The ourdoors is beautiful! The view is spectacular, the kids loved the pool and the sorroundings are unimaginable. You have to see it to understand, how wonderful it is. Andrea is the perfect helpful and informative host. The area is peaceful, a bit rural, but that makes it just better.
