Awesome mountain chalet with wonderful hosts!!!
My friends and I stayed in the chalet 2 nights, and we just had a great time. We'll come back for a week next time! It was fully stocked and wonderfully cozy and well-decorated. The hosts/owners provided everything we needed, even some food items! Thank you! They are kind and gracious people, and showed us how everything works, and met us on check-out, and were also available by phone when needed. We really appreciated their hospitality and the wonderful and quiet retreat. About the only complaint is the neighbors' loudly barking dogs, but that is the neighbor's problem to deal with, hehe. Views of Etna were great, by the way, from out front. Foreast adjacent as well. Great getaway! We sincerely thank Lucia and Ignazio again. :) We'll come back.

Confort e accoglienza da 5 stelle
Sono un appassionato di trail e di escursioni in montagna, amo la natura, la tranquillità e sono “stregato” dall’Etna.Lo chalet si trova in un posto strategico per le escursioni, in contrada Serra la nave a soli 3 km da Rifugio Sapienza. Qui si può fare tutto, ma soprattutto ti lasciano un segno l’accoglienza, la gentilezza e la precisione del proprietario: da 10 e lode. Lo chalet è comodo a accogliente, non manca nulla: accessori per il bagno, cucina completa provvista di tutto, wi-fi, tv, riscaldamento a pellet, camino a legna. Abbiamo cucinato, dormito, fatto escursioni e trascorso 5 giorni meravigliosi. Torneremo sicuramente, presto!

Meravigliosa
Abbiamo passato due notti in questa bellissima baita ed è stato meraviglioso. La baita è come la cercavamo, bellissima, pulita e curata nei minimi dettagli. Attrezzata per ogni evenienza. Il posto è strategico, molto bello e molto suggestivo, immerso nella natura dei boschi dell'Etna. I proprietari sono stati molto accoglienti, disponibili e premurosi. Ci siamo sentiti come a casa nostra. Sicuramente ci ritorneremo. Straconsigliata.

Veramente eccellente!!!
Abbiamo soggiornato qui per il ponte dell'Immacolata....lo chalet è esattamente come da descrizione e non manca veramente nulla. Nonostante il freddo lo chalet è ben riscaldato grazie alla stufa a pellet, il camino e le stufe elettriche. I proprietari molto disponibili su tutti i punti di vista e per qualsiasi cosa.........stiamo già scegliendo una prossima data per ritornarci...abbiamo passato 3 giorni magnifici.

This is a unique property in a wonderful location
Our family of five loved this property! The hosts were very friendly and helpful; they went out of their way to help us settle in. They responded quickly and in full to any queries prior to our stay. The chalet had all the facilities we needed (we cooked for five every evening) and was spotlessly clean. We would definitely stay here again and can recommend it to other travellers who are looking for somewhere peaceful to stay with special character. We particularly enjoyed reading and relaxing on the veranda after a day going up Mt Etna. The night skyline of Catania at the end of the drive was stunning and the view of smoking Mt Etna across the field was amazing!

Herrlich entspannend, Katzensprung zum Ätna
Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und entgegenkommend. Alles hat reibungslos funktioniert. Wir wurden sogar mit Wasser und Keksen versorgt, weil wir spät angereist sind! Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich, es fehlt an nichts! Alles ist sehr sauber! Es ist ein Katzensprung zum Ätna. Ein Auto jedoch empfehlenswert! Restaurants sind mit dem Auto sehr gut erreichbar, aber auch zu Fuss ist gibt es ein schönes Restaurant! Immer wieder gerne. Danke - Grazie für den tollen Aufenthalt! Thoma und Tina!
