Would recommend
The management company was great. They sent me an email informing me that the property was distant from stores and provided with information of a local town. When I arrived at the property they were quick to reply to my messages. The property manager even came out to meet me. The property is well suited for a minimum of five guest from what I saw. The bathroom needed some cleaning and repairs, also it’s a bit small. I was only there for one night but satisfied overall.

Abbiamo preso la casetta per undici persone nonostante fossimo in otto, e ci siamo trovati benissimo! I proprietari veramente gentili, ci hanno aiutato in un momento di emergenza causa neve e si sono resi sempre molto disponibili
Il luogo è perfetto, la zona limitrofa quando c’è neve è ideale per fare pupazzi di neve e scivolare con gli slittini
Il rifugio Sapienza è un po’ lontano da raggiungere a piedi ma condizioni meteo permettendo non è nulla di impossibile😉
Struttura consigliatissima👍👍

Au calme à 2 pas de l’Etna.
Emplacement superbe à quelques Km seulement de l’accès en téléphérique de l’Etna (3 min en voiture, 45 min à pied via un sentier de randonnée balisé).
Les chambres sont propres, confortables et très bien équipées (la notre avais une super kitchenette). Le lieux est super calme, et le parc protégé de l’Etna offre plein d’autres possibilités de balades au départ de la chambre. Bref, nous avons regretté de n’y être restés qu’une nuit, à recommander les yeux fermés!

Fine settimana innevato
Il soggiorno é andato molto bene i proprietari super gentili e disponibili, Aurelio davvero speciale. Appartamento molto confortevole e ristrutturato, l’unica cosa che suggerirei alla proprietá di fare un investimento sui materassi che ci hanno creato qualche problema alla schiena, in quanto non abbiamo dormito affatto bene. Per il resto
Tutto bene. Lo consiglio e ci ritorneremo senz’altro con materassi cambiati 😅
