Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Mascalucia

We had a lovely stay. The house is very comfortable, and the garden is gorgeous. Our children were able to play in the garden and swimming pool. If you want to sit a little outside the tourist hustle and bustle, and yet have all the amenities at your fingertips, this is ideal. We'd love to come back.

Great villa with a lot of space and many bathrooms. Beautiful view! Host was very friendly, responsive and helpful. The actual place matched the photos and for sure worth the price we paid.

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.

A perfect 2 night stay at Andrea’s place. The jacuzzi was a perfect addition as got quite chilly at night being up in the mountains. A very comfortable home and could have stayed a whole week! A perfect quiet stay in beautiful surroundings. Thank you so much!

The old cottage is surrounded by idyllic gardens, very quiet with a beautiful view of the sea to Calabria. It is carefully renovated and tastefully furnished, the kitchen is simple, but equipped with everything you need, the bathroom is large. At the end of May, the weather was still quite cool, but there was a heating option. Our rental car was a bit big for the steep driveway, so parking was a bit tedious. The contact with Orazio was great, thank you for our original stay!

Fabulously views. Lovely apartment, basically equipped but suitable for our needs. Safe parking for the motorbikes at the bottom of quite a steep driveway. Supermarket about a miles down the hill. We cooked in the apartment so don't know about local restaurants. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Francesca and Enzo's little house is ideally located at the foot of Etna but also in a peaceful, pretty and very pleasant locality, with all the facilities. We had a great stay there to visit the entire east coast of Sicily. Francesca is particularly attentive and gives very good advice. We highly recommend it to travellers looking for calm, authenticity and contact.

Thank you for the opportunity to stay in your wonderful house. Everything was excellent! A secluded quiet place for a relaxing holiday and to see Sicily! It's a special pleasure to watch the eruption of Etna!!! It's unforgettable! Ciao!!!

Had an amazing two month stay in this place. The apartment is spaceous and centrally located, I felt right at home. Lisania and her husband were very welcoming and provided fresh linens throughout my stay.

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

Great view and perfect price-value for such a well-kept house! We really loved staying there and we would love to go there again!

Helgas place exceeded our expectations. We had family of 7 and the apartment is spacious and very comfortable with an amazing view . The location is quiet whilst being only a few minutes walk from the town centre . We had a problem with the shower head and it was sorted within a couple of hours . Great service . Our family loved the week we spent in the apartment . Thoroughly recommended . John, Perth Australia

We were enchanted by the fantastic view and wonderful nature around us. In a quiet environment, we were able to relax and go on great excursions. The accommodation has everything you need and is very cozy. We especially liked the large glass front and the wall painting in the bathroom. Cinzia was very friendly, helpful and always available. The road to the farm is bumpy but easily doable.

I stayed at Francesca's place for a week. The house is in a perfect location, very close to lidl, supermarkets and shopping centers. Just 10 minutes by car from the center of Catania (for the type of trip I had in mind it was a perfect house) plus it is slightly raised on a hill, and on the warm days of August we had the pleasure of breathing some fresh air! 15 minutes from the house are also beautiful sea areas (such as "the caves of Ulysses"). Francesca is very helpful and open to dialogue! Overall a positive experience!!

Elvira’s place was very clean and so spatious! The view was amazing and the sound of the waves was so peaceful. Elvira was very friendly and always answered quickly. We had a beautiful stay at her place. We would definitely recommend!

Rocca’s place was incredible! The view from the balcony and the kitchen were unbeatable and although it’s inside of a complex, it still feels very secluded. You are a 5ish min walk away from the main shopping/dining area of Taormina which is nice and the pool was also incredible! Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Taormina.

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.

This was the most magical Airbnb experience ever. Guiseppe and Giulia are the most hospitable Hosts I have ever come into contact with. They went above and beyond to make our stay the best. The villa is incredible with massive outdoor grounds to enjoy and a very beautiful large deep clean pool. Inside the villa is exactly as described but better! They were gracious and filled the fridges with many drinks to enjoy. They met us at the toll booth and escorted us to the villa and then drove us around town later to familiarize ourselves to the area and provided many dining recommendations. They were even so kind as to make reservations under their family name and deliver the most amazing desserts I have ever had! The location of the villa is perfect for day trips to Savoca and Taormina and surrounding areas. To have such a beautiful peaceful villa to return to made this our own slice of heaven! I would return in a heart beat. Thank you Giuseppe and Giulia for the most amazing stay.

Just about the closest accomodation you will find to Etna! It's a couple of miles off the main road that's a little bumpy in places but well worth the effort. A wonderfully peaceful house set in well maintained, spacious grounds (sit in the shade and soak up the wonderful view!) that is surprisingly cool in hot weather thanks to the thick lava walls. Nunzio couldn't be more helpful and was always contactable. Just be aware there is a resident (very friendly) dog as well as several cats.

It was an unforgettable experience. The location was stunning. It was a real pleasure to stay there. The people who welcomed us were incredibly kind. Everything was very clean. The hosts kept checking in to make sure we were doing well and helped us with all our questions. We are truly grateful for this experience. We highly recommend this place to everyone.

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.

A Hidden Haven in the Heart of Catania We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect stay. This villa was a truly unexpected haven tucked away in the city of Catania. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and the beauty of the grounds. The lawns and garden were meticulously maintained—lush, green, and full of color—which made every morning coffee feel like something out of a postcard. The spacious pool was a highlight for our family, offering a private and refreshing escape after a day of exploring Sicily. It was spotless, well-kept, and perfectly positioned to enjoy both sun. What truly set this stay apart, though, was the hospitality of our host Giovanni. Not only was he warm and welcoming, but the food he prepared for us was unforgettable—fresh, flavorful, and a true taste of Sicilian home cooking. We came expecting a comfortable place to rest, but what we found was a sanctuary that far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend
