Family-friendly holiday rentals in Messina

Empfehlenswert: Wir haben die Zeit in Taormina/Trapitello sehr genossen , atemberaubende Villa mit fantastischem Blick auf den Etna

The apartment was very modern and clean. It is centered nearby the castle - note that the streets are pretty small in the center of the village, so it's better when you have a small car. Also, the road from Catania to Montalbano are very curvy and damaged at the end.

Deuxième séjour et qu’une envie c’est d’y revenir. L’appartement et Stephano sont parfaits et j’aime beaucoup l’emplacement proche de tout. Grazie Stephano e arrivederci alla prossima 👋.

The check-in was flexible and easily arranged. The villa was beautiful and very comfortable for two couples, located outside of the city which makes it easy to unplug and relax. Thanks for a lovely stay.

I highly recommend this Villa - it surpassed our expectations. The best aspect is Maurizio’s services and excellent communication. He helped organise transfers (even at very short notice), arranged pizza chefs at the villa, and reliably responded to all our requests promptly. Hospitality and care like a 5* hotel. I planned a trip for 4 days for a group of 14 girls in mid-May. As soon as we landed in Catania, we felt we were being personally looked after. Maurizio helped me pre-arrange minibus transfers and kept in regular contact to ensure all was well. Exploring the grounds of the villa was a highlight. We enjoyed fresh oranges from the trees and squeezed large lemons into our drinks. There’s an excellent outdoor gazebo area with concrete ground and tent-like roof surrounded by beautiful trees. The terraces provide beautiful views of the sea, sunset and islands. The kitchen is small but was sufficient to cook for 14 people, with large pots/pans. Bedrooms huge and spacious

Carlo was a super friendly host. We felt welcome in the truest sense of the word. We were greeted by him personally with a huge bowl of fresh fruit and a homemade cake! Carlo was very concerned about our well-being and gave us lots of great tips and recommendations for the region. The house with the large garden in a very quiet location offers a great view of Mount Etna and at the same time you can hear the sound of the sea. The house is very tastefully furnished, very clean and comfortable. As soon as it got dark, we enjoyed the view of Mount Etna from the fireplace. We would love to come back at any time and can highly recommend this accommodation.

Cinzia is a wonderful host, and the home is outstanding — so peaceful and full of charm. We had a truly great time there and would love to return for a longer stay. Thank you for such a lovely experience! ♥️

We had a fantastic eight day stay in Mario’s wonderful villa. The location and views are incredible and we would highly recommend staying here. Mount Etna even erupted and put on a display (which was fabulous to witness) and Mario was hot on the phone telling us to get outside at 11pm to view the spectacle. A perfect venue with lots of space for our large party of eight adults and two children, the surrounding patios gave amazing panoramic views of the sea and countryside. We loved picking fresh oranges and cherries daily which was so relaxing and tasty! It’s a short 15 minute walk to the local town with a wonderful bakery and butchers plus supermarkets all accessable. We will definitely return to this wonderful villa when revisiting Sicily and I can’t recommend it enough! Thank you Mario .

Der Aufenthalt bei Lory war sehr schön, die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war schnell und unkompliziert. Die Wohnung, als auch die Lage sind wunderschön, man hat seine Ruhe und ist schnell mit dem Roller oder Bus in der Stadt und die Aussicht auf der Terrasse ist wie auf den Fotos! Wir haben von Lory gute Tipps für Restaurants, Rollervermietung und sehenswerte Orte auf der Insel bekommen. Alles in allem war es ein toller Urlaub und können die Wohnung nur weiterempfehlen!

Great location and perfect for our family of four! Easy to walk to restaurants and stores. Parking our car in the garage was super convenient.

We had a wonderful stay here! The town can be reached by bus or taxi, but make sure you’re not travelling on a public holiday (like us!) The apartment is tidy and quite spacious, and the balcony is perfect! The kitchen has everything you need with some lovely gifts of local produce left by the host. The town is beautiful and walkable, we came just before fireworks festival and were able to see some amazing local displays of celebration. The bells on the church ring out every 15 minutes between 6am and 10pm, but we were enjoyed the sound. The hosts are so helpful and lovely - really good people Highly recommend

Un accueil formidable de la part de Bartolo qui parle à merveille le français. Il a pris le temps de nous conseiller sur les lieux à visiter, les restaurants, locations de véhicules ect.. Le logement corresponds très bien à nos attentes, il y présente tous le nécessaire et est très propre. Lipari est une île merveilleuse avec des gens accueillants et d'une grande gentillesse. Si on aurait sû, on aurait pris plus de jours sur Lipari. On reviendra sans hésiter pour nos prochaines vacances, encore merci Bartolo !

Melania è stata gentile e disponibile da subito. La casa è super carina e comoda. Immersa nel parco naturale, vicina alle gole dell'Alcantara. Tranquilla e rilassante ma comunque non distante al centro abitato. La famiglia di Melania, che abita al piano di sotto, si è resa disponibile per qualsiasi cosa. Torneremo molto volentieri e lo consiglierò ad amici.

Sehr entspanntes Anwesen direkt am Etna - etwas rustikaler aber mit sehr viel Charme. Wir waren mit Baby hier und haben uns sofort sehr wohl gefühlt und die ruhige Berglage genossen. Vor Ort gab es alles, was wir brauchten und auch die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Ende Mai war es dort auf 700m Höhe noch etwas frisch, weshalb wir den Pool nicht wirklich nutzen konnten. Ich denke am besten kommt man hier im Sommer hin, wenn es an der Küste schon zu heiß ist und man vor der Hitze fliehen will. Wir konnten den großen Außenbereich aber trotzdem sehr geniessen. Ein Auto ist unbedingt erforderlich und die Anfahrt von der Küste ist stellenweise steil, kurvig und zieht sich ziemlich hin - da hat man nicht sehr oft Bock drauf.. Wir haben auch deshalb nur jeden zweiten Tag Ausflüge gemacht und ansonsten viel am Haus entspannt. Andrea war sehr nett und hilfsbereit und obwohl er selbst in den Urlaub gefahren ist, sehr gut zu erreichen.

Giuseppe est un hôte exceptionnel, très serviable et disponible. Le village de Motta Camastra est très agréable et la vue sublime. Nous avons eu la chance d'y être pendant les 2 jours de la fête du village donc nous avons pu profiter des concerts, feux d'artifice, processions, illuminations et fanfare. L'appartement est très fonctionnel, bien placé dans le village et permet de profiter des différentes visites à faire aux alentours dont l'Etna. On regrette de ne pas y rester plus longtemps!

Encantados con la casa de Elisa, fuimos en familia y con auto. Es muy práctico ya que tenes lugar para estacionar en la puerta de la casa. Estaba todo impecable y Elisa te espera con todo para una rica merienda o desayuno. También te asesora para ir al centro a través de un ascensor y las mejores playas para visitar. Sin dudas volvería!!

We were two Canadian couples staying for 5 nights (after visiting Milano/Genova), with a car that we rented at Catania airport. We arrivred at 9PM but our host Nando was communicating us and received us in person. Upon arrival, fridge had some complimentary sandwiches, juice drinks and snacks, and a delicious homemade cake. Lovely place, peaceful, spacious, additional to detail, comes as advertised. Beautiful 180 degree view, when sitting outside by the pool, and even from main salon/kitchen. Loved the bedrooms and in particular the high quality mattresses and sheets. Made good use of the washing machine as we had a lot of laundry from our first week in Italy. Nando was very thoughful and proactive in checking in on us and suggesting places to visit and eat at. Good location, about a 10-15 minute drive to Taormina parking and a short drive to get on highway to visit Mount Etna or Syracuse/Ortigia. We had a wonderful stay in Sicily, thank you Nando!

Angela ist eine überaus engagierte Gastgeberin. Sie hat ein Dossier zusammengestellt wie die Gelben Seiten mit Tipps, war immer erreichbar, alles organisiert. Das Haus ist in einer ruhigen Gegend, man sollte schon ein Auto haben. Zu Fuß sind die Geschäfte zum Einkauf aber auch machbar. Das Haus selbst hat alles was man braucht. Schöne Zimmer, Pool ist auch schön aber mir selbst beheizt zu kalt, ich bin da aber auch verfroren, meine Tochter hat das garnichts gemacht. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

This a really beautiful place. The view is amazing and surroundings are lovely. The studio is very comfortable. We loved our stay there and would come again with no hesitation. We noticed that the hosts have added some signs along the route that makes their house easier to find.

Beautiful and comfortable! The pool and views put this over the top perfect. Many steps, but the walkway is lovely. There is a short uphill distance to walk to town center. Our group ranged in age from 60-72, all moderately fit, and we did ok. We had some difficulty finding the place when we first got there , but we are not experienced travelers and made a few mistakes in directions. Sabina was easily accessible and very helpful in guiding us. Helga was wonderful in her communications and had many recommendations. Her driver service for our Mt Etna excursion and return trip to the airport was professional, friendly, and easy to contact. We very highly recommend!

Michaela was very friendly and the House is very nice!

Hôtes accueillants et de bons conseils. Le logement est agréable, parfaitement propre et l'espace bien aménagé devant est un plus pour profiter de l'extérieur.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Ida’s place. It was handy having a kitchen area and being able to wash our clothes. The pool was nice to swim in, although there were lots of bugs around probably just due to the location. Unfortunately, the air conditioning stopped working on our second night and the electricity cut off twice during the night too, so we didn’t sleep well but Ida was very responsive and did try to help resolve the issues where she could. We’d definitely be happy to stay again once the air con is fixed!

Claudia hat uns direkt persönlich begrüßt. Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Die Unterkunft ist sehr ruhig. Das Bett super bequem. :) Man hat viel Platz! Wir können die Unterkunft von Herzen empfehlen.
