Holiday rentals with a fireplace in San Giovanni La Punta

We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad. Het huis is erg comfortabel, en de tuin is prachtig. Onze kinderen hebben heerlijk in de tuin en zwembad kunnen spelen. Als je een beetje buiten de toeristische hectiek wilt zitten, en toch alle voorzieningen binnen handbereik wilt hebben dan is dit ideaal. We willen graag terug komen.

Gostámos muito de ficar na casa do Fernando. A vista ao Monte Etna era bonita e o espaço encantador. E fomos recebidos com uma garrafa de vinho, agua, e bolinhos. A maior limitação é que, tal como indicado no anúncio, o espaço não tem WiFi, mas é possível ter dados móveis.

We had a great stay in Tina’s place. Tina was always very helpful and very quick to respond to requests. The place is really peaceful and beautiful. To sit outside and listen to nightingales singing, scops owls calling at night and many more birds was fantastic. The only other noise was the bells on the cows as they came past the house to go for a drink. The flowers along the tracks are gorgeous. The place has a fantastic ambience. A wonderful relaxing retreat. Wish we had been able to stay longer.

We highly recommend staying at Francesco's country house. It's very spacious and the view from the newly built veranda is wonderful. Don't be startled when Francesco wanders around the place as he is still very active on the land around the house. Thank you Francesco!

Adorable cottage with incredible views! It was perfect location for the three of us. Smack in the middle between Teormina and Catania with gorgeous Reposto in between. That is if you have a car. The accommodations are just as described and on the photos. Maybe a little more of a seating area in the living room would be fantastic since that is where the internet is the strongest. Otherwise the garden, the jacuzzi, the neighborhood - all are beyond enjoyable! We would love to come back. Oh, yes, if you are thinking about hiking Mount Etna - just ask Andrea! You would have the BEST experience possible!!!!

La petite maison de Francesca et Enzo est idéalement située au pied de l'Etna mais aussi dans une localité paisible, jolie et très agréable, avec toutes les facilités. Nous y avons passé un séjour génial pour visiter toute la côte est de la Sicile. Francesca est particulièrement attentionnée et de très bon conseil. Nous recommandons fortement aux voyageurs qui cherchent le calme, l'authenticité et le contact.

Vincenzo’s place was absolutely perfect for what we needed. It was completely spotless which was great with our 1 year old boy. Would definitely recommend, and there was nothing I would change about our stay there.

Waanzinnig mooie plek. Het was even spannend omdat we laat in de avond de weg moesten vinden maar de instructie van de host en de communicatie was perfect. En wat was het de rit waard, waanzinnige plek, prachtige tuin en huisje was helemaal goed. Bedden waren goed, dekens lekker warm tijdens de nachten die afkoelde. De trampo heeft top vering, volgens onze kids. Kortom aanrader.

This is a great base from which to explore Taormina. The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable although I would say the photos made certain spaces look bigger than they were. There were 5 of us and once we had all got settled in it proved to be a very comfortable place to stay. You need to be able to cope with the stairs however. We knew that in advance so were prepared. Easy walk downhill into beautiful Taormina. Buses are cheap and a great way to get around if the hills get too much. We all had a fabulous time.

Salvos Villa ist exakt so wie sie beschrieben wird und auf den Bildern abgebildet ist - Sauber, gut ausgestattet und sowohl innen als auch außen geschmackvoll gestaltet. Hervorzuheben ist die tolle Kommunikation mit Salvo selbst - der gefühlt zu jeder Tages- und Nachtzeit ansprechbar war. Der Pool und der Garten wurden während unseres Aufenthaltes mehrmals gesäubert und gepflegt. Wir haben nichts auszusetzen und können diese Unterkunft wärmstens empfehlen.

Wonderful house and location! We loved it here. The house has a lot of beautiful furniture, as well as an open terrace with a great view. The host Franco was so very kind, gave us many recommendations on local beaches and cafes

Very nice apartment in a great location. It comes with a balcony with a great view on the mountains, the sea and Taormina. The apartment has everything you need. Also a few drinks and snacks. It has a free parking spot on the premises. Couldn’t find any other Airbnb with free parking. Restaurants, bars and beach are reachable by foot within 5min. The host Alessandra is a very nice person, she helped us with our luggage, gave recommendations and even a little gift after checkout. It’s on the 4th floor and has no elevator, but for us it was not a problem. Due to its central location it can be a bit loud. It’s not located by the main road but motorbikes in the whole area are just loud. In the night it gets more quiet, no more trains and you won’t have any problems to sleep. I highly recommend.

My 3 sisters and I stayed for our annual European trip and the apartment met out needs and more. Every morning was spent on the balcony taking in the breathtaking views. Taormina is the jewel in Sicily’s crown with so much to do and see including a taste of opera, history, boat tours, beaches, shopping, gelato and more. 5 days was not long enough. Local shops and amenities are on the doorstep and you couldn’t ask for a better location with easy access to the cable car and bus stops etc. Very easy pick up/drop off for Uber. Steps are a feature of the area so pack at least 1 pair of sensible shoes!

Eine tolle Zeit haben wir dort verbracht. Leider nur 2 Nächte. Wir kommen definitiv wieder. Es war genau das was wir brauchten. Und es ist ein interessantes und beeindruckendes Projekt.

Sono stata a casa di Francesca per una settimana. La casa è in una posizione perfetta, vicinissimo a lidl, supermercati e centri commerciali. Distante solo 10 minuti in macchina dal centro di Catania (per il tipo di viaggio che avevo in mente io è stata una casa perfetta) in più è leggermente rialzata su una collinetta, e nelle calde giornate di agosto abbiamo avuto il piacere di respirare un po' di aria fresca! a 15 minuti dalla casa si trovano anche delle bellissime zone di mare (come "le grotte di Ulisse"). Francesca è molto disponibile e aperta al dialogo! nel complesso un'esperienza positiva!!

Rocca and Francesca were very responsive, the place was easy to find and as described. Francesca took us through everything and was extremely helpful. The views were amazing and all the sights were very walkable from the apartment. Thank you for a lovely stay!

This was our first visit to Sicily. We were a group of 8 with 3 families. We had plenty of space & privacy. The home is truly as beautiful as the photos & is like a step back in time. Maria is an amazing artist who added her special touches all over the home This was Francesco’s grandfathers home built in the late 1800’s. The backyard overlooks the town below & the ocean w Mt Etna on the other side. Magnificent! The added bonus of Rosaria’s services made us feel incredibly pampered. Her services are an additional fee but are very well worth it. She cooked 2 amazing meals for us (her chicken cacciatore is the absolute best!). She also helped secure a restaurant reservation & transportation. Note that a driver or rental car is a must. Unless you are fluent in Italian you will need translation apps. Truly a lifesaver as Sicilians often do not speak English. We would definitely stay here again if we are ever fortunate enough to visit the beautiful island of Sicily.

Villa Gorna is an amazing location with fantastic hosts. The property is as described and photos are accurate. A lot of care was taken to put nice extra features. Orazio was very responsive and helpful, with offers available for tours etc. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend.

Nunzio was incredibly friendly and helpful! The house is beautiful and the location is amazing. The road to get there is a little rough but once you arrive you are greeted by 4 lovely cats and Bianca the dog. Everything went smoothly and Nunzio was always ready to help with whatever was necessary and gave lots of recommendations. Would recommend everyone to travel inwards instead of just staying along the coast and visit this place!

Eine Reise durch Sizilien und Aktion ,wir waren auf der Suche nach Ruhe relax in der Natur ,Das war die richtige Entscheidung bei Mauro in seine Villa für 3 tolle Tagen als Gast zu sein . Ich habe tolle Zeit mit mein Mann verbracht ,die Abende mit einen Blick auf Etna zu geniessen . Mich persönlich hat der Pool umgehauen mit hydromassage der war klasse . Vielen Lieben Dank Mauro an dich und deine Familie 🇮🇹

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt in einem traumhaften Haus! Wir möchten uns ganz herzlich bei Alberto für die tolle Zeit in seinem Haus bedanken! Schon bei der Ankunft waren wir begeistert – die Bilder in der Anzeige entsprechen absolut der Realität. Das Haus ist sehr gepflegt, großzügig geschnitten und liegt in einer wunderbar ruhigen Gegend – perfekt, um abzuschalten und das echte Sizilien zu genießen. Wir waren mit unserer achtköpfigen Familie dort und hatten mehr als genug Platz. Jeder hatte seine Rückzugsmöglichkeit und trotzdem gab es viele schöne gemeinsame Bereiche – ob auf der Terrasse mit Ausblick, beim Essen im Freien oder im gemütlichen Wohnzimmer. Wichtig zu wissen: Das Haus ist nur mit einem Mietwagen erreichbar und die Auffahrt ist recht steil. Es braucht etwas Übung und ein bisschen Fahrgefühl – erfahrene Autofahrer schaffen das aber gut. Dafür wird man mit absoluter Ruhe und einer tollen Aussicht belohnt. Die Kommunikation mit Alberto war von Anfang bis Ende h

Stay here if you are in Taormina! Louisa could not have been more helpful and kind to us during our week there. Her place is beautiful and peaceful and only a very short walk to the center of town. It was spotlessly clean and spacious with a gorgeous garden and old Roman tomb that our kids were fascinated by. We will definitely stay there again if we find ourselves in Taormina!

My stay at Sarah’s villa has been one of my favourite on airbnb so far. The property is traditional and spacious with two large terraces that overlook the coast to the front and mount Etna to the rear. Its location within a Lemon grove provides an ideal peace and quiet, whilst still being near enough to the local villages to make shopping and eating out easy. Sarah is an excellent host who was responsive at all times and went out of her way on several occasions to help us out (dropping off an iron and ironing board, meeting us at the police station after a minor road accident, and dropping us off at the train station at the end of our stay). She was also greatly informative about the local area. A car is essential as the property enterance is on a tight country road that isn’t easy for those on foot. I’ll definitely be visiting again.

Sandra was amazing. Very responsive and friendly. The place was perfect. 3 nice sized bedrooms each with their own bathroom. Nice living/dining space and nicely appointed kitchen area. Outdoor balcony was the perfect spot for breakfast with a stunning view. The pool was the star of the show, complete with lounge and bar area, bathroom and outdoor shower. Overall a perfect spot to anchor yourself as you explore the region.
