Floresta : locations de vacances au pied des pistes

Debora e Carmelo sono due persone eccezionali, simpatiche e ospitali! Il nostro soggiorno è stato per tre giorni e due notti. Tutto perfetto. All’arrivo ci hanno accolto spiegandoci la struttura, posti da poter visitare e i migliori ristoranti della zona. Ci hanno anche offerto varie cose di loro produzione, nello specifico: vino, olio e frutta. Il parcheggio è all’interno della struttura, quindi privato. Alla fine, prima di andare via, ci hanno anche regalato del pesto fatto sempre da loro (buonissimo!). Grazie ancora a Debora e Carmelo per la loro generosità e professionalità. Consigliamo vivamente! Non vediamo l’ora di ritornare! Un caloroso abbraccio, a presto!👋🏼🤗

(English translation below) Monica e suo marito Salvatore sono stati dei padroni di casa fantastici, estremamente disponibili e disponibili. Ci hanno dato un caloroso benvenuto (e ci hanno persino regalato dei dolci tipici di una panetteria locale) e sono stati molto flessibili con il check-in e il check-out. Mia moglie ed io siamo stati da loro solo una notte, ma avremmo voluto fermarci più a lungo per diversi motivi: innanzitutto per la posizione estremamente bella e tranquilla, immersa in una natura meravigliosa. La casa è circondata da un frutteto con meli, peri e susini (e altri alberi da frutto), così abbiamo potuto gustare dell'ottima frutta, perfettamente matura, appena colta. Il nostro soggiorno è stato molto piacevole. Lo chalet dispone di tutti i servizi per un soggiorno confortevole, tra cui un patio esterno con vista sul frutteto, un soppalco con letti comodi e una cucina ben attrezzata. Un altro vantaggio è che lo chalet è abbastanza in alto (circa 1300 metri sul livello del mare), quindi la temperatura era incantevole nonostante il caldo dell'estate siciliana. Questo è il luogo ideale da cui partire per esplorare lo splendido Monte Etna e le città vicine. Monica and her husband Salvatore have been great hosts, extremely helpful and available. They gave is a warm welcome (and even treated us with typical sweets from a local bakery) and were very flexible with the check-in and check-out. My wife and I only stayed at their place for one night, but we wished we could have stayed longer for several reasons: first of all, because of the extremely beautiful and peaceful location, surrounded by beautiful nature. The house is surrounded by an orchard with apple, pear and plum trees (and more), so we were able to enjoy perfectly ripe, organically grown fruits straight from the trees. Our stay was very pleasant as the chalet has all the right amenities for a comfortable stay, including an outdoor patio overlooking the orchard, a mezzanine with comfortable beds, and a well-equipped kitchen. Another advantage is that the chalet is quite high up (around 1300 meters above sea level), so the temperature was lovely in spite of the heat of the Sicilian summer. This is the ideal spot from which to explore the gorgeous Mt. Etna and the neighbouring towns.

Excellent séjour au pied de l Etna. Très facile pour aller sur la côte de Catane a Taormina mais aussi Etna, nord, sud et d en faire le tour Giovanni a ete super, pour nous donner les instructions avt notre arrivée mais aussi pendt tt notre séjour. Aux petits soins pour nous proposer des astuces pour optimiser notre temps de visite et nous faire découvrir les traditions siciliennes. Nous sommes ravis de notre étape a Trecastagni. Très joli logement, très bien équipé. Un grand merci pour cet accueil chaleureux.

This is a great house in the center of Linguaglossa. It has been recently renovated and is beautiful inside. It is laid out over three floors and is well-appointed for a comfortable stay. Street parking was easy in the area, and the apartment is in the city center- easy walking distance from a lot of great restaurants. I would stay here again.

Wish we could have stayed for longer, a lovely apartment in a quiet location. Whilst approx a 20 min drive to Taormina, it's well situated for the local beach. Also, good location for etna tours, Alcantra Gorge, Taormina etc. Taormina itself was exceptional. Whilst up three flights of stairs, the wraparound balcony is worth it! Great host, responsive, friendly and has a lot of local recommendations.

We have been to Ottavio and Elena’s place 6 years ago, and we came back this year because we liked the place very much. It is a rural setting. We had two rooms. One regular and the deluxe, which is bigger and more comfortabl. It has 2 bedrooms upstairs, and the only bathroom is downstairs. There are two stairs. One of the stairs is narrow and spirals up, something to be careful about when you have little children. If this unit had one more bathroom, it would be perfect. The hosts are extremely kind. Breakfast was really good!! They bring it to the room either at 8.30 pm or 9 pm and you order from a menu the day before. All and all we had a great stay of 4 nights. The place is near Siracusa but you need a car to move around with. We will be back, and I highly recommend it.

L’appartamento è davvero piacevole: spazioso e con uno splendido giardino. Francesco è una persona estremamente ospitale e gentile. Il tutto incastonato nella meravigliosa Sicilia!

Emilio es un anfitrión excepcional. Desde el primer día, nos atendió de manera muy amigable y, aunque no era su obligación, nos hizo el favor de transportarnos desde la estación de tren hasta la residencia. Durante nuestra estancia, estuvo siempre atento y resolvió cualquier necesidad que tuviéramos. Es una persona muy amable; incluso compartimos unas cervezas juntos. Mi pareja y yo pasamos un mes en este apartamento, el cual está completamente equipado con todo lo necesario. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. Un consejo para futuros huéspedes: es conveniente contar con un automóvil, ya que el sistema de transporte en Sicilia puede ser bastante complicado. La piscina estuvo disponible a partir de julio. En conclusión, lo recomiendo.

This flat is very modern! The bathroom, the kitchen and the whole flat are freshly renovated, it seems. Most modern furnishing we had on Sicily. The flat is very close to Etna, so perfect if you plan on spending a lot of time on the mountain. The garden is super well maintained and the pool is pretty cool. Sadly, we had some rainy days, so we did not use it. The neighborhood is interesting. It’s not posh, the whole area is not the poshest of Sicily. The flat is surrounded by other people, which are normal natives with dogs. This is to say: bring earplugs for sleeping, then you‘ll have a perfect time. The host is very nice! Helpful, responds quickly, absolutely nothing to complain there. We were two guests, the place can fit up to seven, but I think 2-4 is ideal. All things considered: I recommend this flat. Rent a car. Enjoy the Etna and the pool. Don’t come here for remoteness and solitude.
