Flawless! Amazing time! Not a thing anyone can say bad. We were a goup of 8 and had the very best time! Enough room for everyone. Kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Was left fruit and snacks along with homemade Limioncello. Everything was perfect, clean and host was amazing! Highly recommend! Close to everything in town, store etc. Thank you for a great stay!

Thank you so much - had a wonderful time at Villa Nel Monte! Loved the pool, the table football and the gorgeous gardens in particular! We felt super well looked after and the owners were amazingly kind, helpful and thoughtful. The villa is an amazing location for visiting Mt. Etna and a good base to explore Catania/Taormina - the local area of Nicolosi is also great for restaurants/etc. A really special family holiday - thank you sincerely!

We had a great stay at Villa Nel Monte. The property is spacious for 8 people and we were very comfortable for 2 weeks. Note that 4 of the beds (2 singles and a double) are separate from the main house with its own entrance (could be important if staying with children). Lidia and the family were excellent hosts providing us with local information, transfers to and from the airport and general advice. When we stayed Mount Etna was very active which meant there was a lot of volcanic dust falling but they regularly cleaned the pool and outside areas. Nicolosi is a lovely town a short walking distance (but be warned that there are no pavements so you need your wits about you!). There were plenty of restaurants and bars and the town square always had something going on.

Awesome place. You even have your "own" little Volcano next to the house. The house is one of the best I have stayed in. Literally, everything you can think of is provided including some food items and homemade Limoncello to start the vacation. Love to come back!

A beautiful home through and through. Well-appointed with thoughtful touches from baby bibs to outdoor table linens made our stay truly feel like home. The grounds are so well kept and elevate the ambiance. The location was ideal for day tripping to different areas around Sicily and perfect for walking into town for dinner. Our family of 8 was comfortable and enjoyed our week's stay - would return!

This was one of the best Air B&B experiences I have ever had. The host was extremely kind and responsive. The space was large enough for all of us to have our own space but still be together. The outdoor amenities were beyond my expectations and the surroundings were beautiful! I would definitely stay here in the future!

We have a really lovely stay at this beautiful Villa. The house is very well equipped, with lovely touches. The host and her daughter Lidia went above and beyond to help us out with our requests for information etc. Highlights for us were the tour of Mount Etna with Lidia and visiting the many beaches Sicily has to offer. Great house and great location for exploring and dinners etc. Thank you for having us.

Fantastic villa with everything you could want for a relaxing holiday, clean plenty of outside space and a beautiful clean pool. Lidia was easy to get hold of and recommended a couple of tour companies for us, we used one of her recommendations, Etnalcantara, and the tour was good. Lidia's mother met us at the villa and showed us where everything was and how much to feed the cats! It really is a short walk into town for bars, restaurants and a small supermarket. Would certainly stay here again.

Lovely stay, any questions we asked of the host were answered very quickly to messages. Nice welcoming touches of homemade cake made by the host which was delicious, and we were left some other goodies which was a lovely touch! Villa comes with its own collection of cute cats and three young kittens. They were very lovely and friendly but kept trying to get into the villa, however there are insect doors to keep them out. The location was very good and the villa and garden were beautiful and well looked after. We’d highly recommend staying in this villa.

Can only say wonderful things about our stay. The property was large and absolutely stunning. Everything was clean and tidy. The pool was perfect temperature and very clean. The hosts were spectacular and extremely kind, we felt very at home. They went above and beyond our expectations. The location was nice and central, easy to make day trips throughout Sicily as well as walking distance to the town. I highly recommend this place. I would love to return again.

This house is absolutely wonderful. It has enough space, is very nicely furnished and the garden is very large. We immediately felt at home and enjoyed our time very much. We especially liked the open living area with the large table and the garden area. Everything was very clean, there were enough towels and there were a few cool drinks in the fridge. And this cottage has the sweetest roommate, namely a small cat, which is incredibly cuddly and trusting. We definitely recommend this accommodation. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Katia and Toti are really great hosts for such a luxury place. They took care for everything, great equipment, very good self made food such as pie cake, saisonal fruits and Jam. They were reachable at any time and they kept in the background at the same time. The house is absolutely the same as in description and pictures. It is very stylish and tasteful furnished. Very child-friendly as well as our almost 3-years-old confirmed????

Many thanks to Katia and her daughter Lidia for the most amazing experience I have ever had in a rented holiday home. I travel a lot and I am used to rent luxury properties around the world, and I can confidently say that this property was by far the cleanest, best equipped I have ever experienced. The welcome was something else, a freshly baked home made cake and several local products were left for us to enjoy... Katia and Lidia were the perfect hosts, so kind and friendly. We had an amazing time and we will certainly be back. Thanks thanks thanks.

A very spacious and relaxing house. The pool is just great and is cleaned regularly. There are plenty of toys for children. The house is fully equipped and is in good condition. The garden is planted green and very large. But the hostess is the highlight of the house. A wonderful helpful and warm woman who is available around the clock for questions and support.

We had a completely fabulous stay for a family holiday at Giulia’s place! It was a beautiful location, in a great spot close to a lovely little village. There was lots of room for all of us, and we felt right at home straight away, in part due to the home-made treats Giulia had left for us which were all delicious! We had a bit of trouble with the internet while we were there, which we believe was a fault with the network, and Giulia and the team did their best to try and rectify this, though sadly we didn’t manage to use any WiFi throughout our stay which wasn’t ideal (but not our hosts’ fault!) As other reviews mention, there are dogs at neighbouring properties which are constantly loud, but again not something the team can help and once we put our earbuds in we were no longer bothered about it, so pack earplugs ☺️ The cats at the property were also delightful, and we would have taken one home if we could!! Overall we had a wonderful stay, and would recommend it to everyone.
