Holiday Home Sicily near Mount Etna

Immerse yourself in the idyllic Sicilian country life, not far from the stunning coast of Taormina and the slopes of Mount Etna. Your rustic vacation home with outdoor pool is perfect for this. Massive wooden beams and natural stone walls blend together in the two-story vacation home to create a unique atmosphere that will make you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With two separate bedrooms and 120 square meters of living space, you can still feel at home with up to four people. This is thanks not only to the typical Sicilian furnishings, but also to the convenient kitchen facilities and two bathrooms. This vacation home is an excellent starting point for a variety of activities, whether for families with children or couples with friends. On hot summer days, the private outdoor pool invites you to take a refreshing dip. Afterwards, you'll find a lovely spot on the terrace, for example, to end the day in style. The village of Castiglione di Sicilia is about three kilometers away. Nearby activities: The stunning coast of Taormina with the town of Giardini di Naxos is about 3 kilometers away. 20 km. A truly sporting challenge is a rafting trip through the rapids of the Alcantara. Or sign up for canyoning, a mix of hiking, swimming, and mountaineering, or explore the surrounding areas by mountain bike. The Alcantara River offers something for everyone. Free climbing and off-road trips with an all-terrain vehicle are also offered. You can also go on a classic hike and enjoy the splendid views. A truly unique natural spectacle awaits you on Mount Etna. From the Rifugio Etna-Nord, you can take an off-road bus to the observatory at 2,900 meters. Our tip: Take the slightly longer route to the Rifugio Sapienza (about 60 kilometers, south of Etna) and fly over the lava fields and lateral craters by cable car. The play of colors in nature will amaze you.

Des vacances parfaites

Nous avons pris une location de 10 jours chez Maria, une hôte irréprochable, au petit soins et toujours disponible. Nous sommes arrivés après 2 jours de route et quel bonheur de voir cette maison de village en pierre rénovée, propre avec tout le confort nécessaire. L’accueil de Maria montrait qu’elle était soucieuse de faire découvrir sa Sicile. Un frigo rempli et des douceurs nous attendaient. Il faut évidement prendre la voiture pour tout mais comparé à la chaleur étouffante de la ville, ce petit coin de verdure unique est idéale. Certes, le chemin de quelques mètres est un peu tortueux mais nous y sommes arrivés chargé sans difficultés en y allant tranquillement. La maison est encore plus belle que sur les photos et la décoration intérieur et extérieur est faite pour que nous nous sentons bien. La piscine est juste parfaite pour un petit rafraichissement et la vue de celle-ci sur les ruines est époustouflante. Il y a absolument tout le confort et le logement est juste impeccable. Nous avons beaucoup visité les alentours. Il y a un peu de route et les plages de galets sont fabuleuses (prendre les chaussures pour l’eau). La maison est isolée de tout, le calme plat et un repos de maître. Si vous n’avez pas peur de prendre la voiture allez chez Maria et vous aurez des vacances idéales (en comparaison avec la Sicile en ville). Je remercie Maria et toute son équipe de nous avoir fait « lâcher prise » … Je ne peux que recommander cet endroit
