Catania: case vacanze sulla spiaggia

This was one of the best places I have ever stayed. In terms of layout, design, usability and location, it does not get much better for this price. It is in the centre of a charming small city with everything you need close by, without feeling very touristy. It was great to stay here with a small child, but keep in mind that the entrance has a narrow staircase that is not super easy to navigate with a stroller.

We stayed for four weeks in march. We had a great time, we fell in love with the place and their lovely dog Fiocco who is very sweet, also to children. Therèse and Viviana were very kind and helpful when we had questions. The house is situated in the middle of a large lemon grove and a daily stroll to the sea (it's a pebble beach) is greatly recommended. The nearby village San Stefano di Camastra is great for an ice cream and a coffee. We expected more hikes to be near, as it is located right next to Nebrodi but finding and reaching hotspots (hiking or otherwise) was ultimately harder than expected. We encountered this across Sicily though and is not related to the house itself. Our children loved to roam around the premises and find their own little adventures. All in all, we had a great relaxed stay and felt in tune with rural Sicily.

Hemingway, rumored to have spent some time in Acciaroli, said of Italy, "Sometimes I think we only half live over here. The Italians live all the way." At Casa Speranza, I was afforded the quiet and space to access the the other half. The apartment was clean, simple, and walking distance to the Acciaroli beaches and the markets and cafes in town, and only a short drive (30-180 minutes) to some lovely walks and runs in Parco Nazionale del Cilento. Francesco and his mom and dad were very gracious hosts; check-in and parking was a breeze, and his mother Giovanna even went so far as to cook my partner and I acciuga in a red wine vinegar, garlic and mint as an unexpected surprise for lunch. We loved our stay here and would love to return!

L'appartamento di Ferdinando si trova in una posizione tranquilla e panoramica a circa trenta minuti a piedi da Castellammare di Stabia (dove con il treno si possono facilmente raggiungere Pompei, Napoli e Sorrento). La casa é pulita, comoda e ben attrezzata. Dal balcone c'è una splendida vista sul golfo di Napoli e sul Vesuvio. Ferdinando ci ha accolti con precisione e gentilezza; anche durante il soggiorno si é dimostrato disponibile per darci consigli ed informazioni utili. Consigliatissimo!

She was an amazing host, even helped us check in a little bit earlier because I was feeling sick. She responsive and guided us to the apartment. She took care of all our needs, left snacks too which were very welcomed after a long day of travel.

des hôtes formidables, un emplacement tout parfait pour profiter à la a fois de la plage et des chemins de randonnée, un environnement très calme... en fait, c'était exactement ce que nous cherchions. Très très satisfaits !

Ho appena terminato un soggiorno da sogno in un alloggio unico, situato proprio sul famoso e iconico ponte nel cuore di Polignano a Mare. La posizione è semplicemente spettacolare: svegliarsi ogni mattina con la vista sul mare cristallino e il suggestivo paesaggio del centro storico è stata un'esperienza indimenticabile. La casa è un gioiello di stile, arredata con gusto, con ogni dettaglio curato, offre tutto il necessario per un soggiorno piacevole e rilassante. La location è perfetta: a pochi passi dalle principali attrazioni turistiche, dai ristoranti tipici e dalle bellissime calette che caratterizzano la zona. La gentilezza, la disponibilità e l'ospitalità di Maira hanno reso il soggiorno ancora più piacevole. Nonostante il meteo avverso, relax, confort e soprattutto l'entusiasmo di alloggiare in un luogo così suggestivo hanno caratterizzato questa esperienza di soggiorno unica a Polignano a Mare che non posso fare altro che consigliare a tutti vivamente.

Beautiful waterfront location and extremely spacious modern two bedroom 1.5 full bathroom apartment. It is part of a five unit complex, but you would never know it very quiet and peaceful. We spent a week there and would happily come back again the next time we are in this area. Very good value, not cheap but well with it. Maria was an excellent host and meet us there to show us around. If we had any questions she was always there quickly to respond. Very highly recommended.

Une superbe maison dans un cadre magnifique et fleuri. Le jardin est très beau, la piscine est superbe et grande, l’extérieur vraiment très joli. En revanche l’intérieur est très simple et modeste (pas très pratique de cuisiner notamment, pas de lave-vaisselle). L’hôte est très agréable et accueillante.

Tutto Ok Rosalba !

Great host, great house! Had everything you need, including some cute little geckos in the garden at night. We rented a car which helped to get to the supermarket and to Salerno which is well worth a visit. Thank you for a great place to stay.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at Monica's place. It is located perfectly from the port and the city center. She had so much provided in the bnb and we had access to many of the hotel's amenities. The hotel staff was super friendly and helpful, as was Monica with very quick replies.

Fantastic stay for 5 family members. Beautiful villa with exceptional view and lovely balcony. Close to store and great restaurant. Loved the kitchen and dining area. Walked down to town twice. Not that hard, but did take the bus on return that dropped off near villa. Also took boat ride along amalfi coast. The best day!! Everything Sooo nice!

Wir hatten einen schönen Urlaub in der Unterkunft. Anfang Juni, hatten wir den Außenbereich sogar meist für uns. Der Pool ist toll und der Garten super schön angelegt und bepflanzt. Die Wohnung Dune hat eine oder sogar fast schon zwei großzügige Terrassen. Im Haus fehlt es an nichts. Sogar Wäschewaschen war möglich. Die Kommunikation war unkompliziert. Insgesamt ein toller Ort zum Entspannen und seine Ruhe haben.

Alessandro und Valentina sind wunderbare Gastgeber. Wir reisten mit unserer kleinen Tochter Paula an (1< Jahr) und Alessandro hat uns alles zur Verfügung gestellt, was wir brauchten. Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt und Paula hat super geschlafen. Ein Babybett mit höhenverstellbaren Seiten, sodass man quasi ein Familienbett hat, einen Brei-Zubereiter, Mixer, Spielzeug, extra Decken zum Krabbeln - ganz herzlichen Dank dafür! Die Wohnung im EG liegt in einem traumhaften Garten, man kann direkt aufs Meer sehen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

The villa was absolutely beautiful and very well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the choice of outdoor areas and the pool. Sabrina was an extremely lovely and responsive host who made sure our stay was smooth. Arriving in Catania at 8am, we were able to do an early check-in which was much appreciated. Our children also appreciated the cats who came to say hi, it reminded us of ours :) We would definitely recommend Sabrina’s place.

Excellent location once you find it. We had a little trouble but no worries, the views are stunning. The home is adequately equipped, clean and modern. The train runs close by and takes a while to get used to. The beach is great and there are plenty of chairs, umbrellas and toys. The location is central to nice towns, shopping and restaurants. If you can get to restaurant Vecchio Frantoio in Diamante it’s well worth it. Valerio and Laura are excellent hosts. You won’t be disappointed.

Herzlichen Dank liebe Franca, daß ich auf Eurem schönem Anwesen mit spektakulärem Blick auf Salina, Filicudi und Alicudi wohnen konnte! Durch die Freundlichkeit die du und dein Mann mir entgegen brachtet, war es für mich ein leichtes, mich wohl und sicher zu fühlen. Die naturnahe Stille und landschaftliche Schönheit bereiteten mir viel Freude und Entspannung. Deine köstlichen Kuchen, Speisen und Obst, Eure Großzügigkeit überhaupt....DANKE Ich freue mich sehr darauf wieder zu kommen!

Simona est une hôte très gentille, qui fait son maximum pour vous mettre à l'aise et vous renseigner sur les alentours. La maison a tout ce dont on a besoin pour passer un agréable séjour en famille. Accès direct sur la plage Je recommande !

Great place, 5 min. walk to the huge beach, the house is good and clean have all you need. Romano’s family is nice and always help.

Lele is an excellent hostess. The place matches the description perfectly. She has thoughtfully prepared a detailed instruction book with all the information we might need. Additionally, she provided us with plenty of helpful parking tips.

Sehr schöne und sehr saubere Unterkunft in einer super Lage direkt am Meer. Traumhaft! Quirico hat sehr schnell und nett geantwortet. Kann ich wirklich nur empfehlen, gerne wieder!

La casa di Sebastiano è stata un luogo perfetto per la nostra famiglia. Camere ampie, letti comodi e cucina dotata di tutto ciò che serve. La veranda è il valore aggiunto, sia per i pasti che per permettere ai bambini di giocare. Sebastiano è stato un host molto disponibile e velocissimo nelle risposte, ci ha dato buoni consigli per il nostro soggiorno. Da consigliare assolutamente!

Sara’s place was great. Extremely spacious and could not be any closer to the beautiful beach and lido. We went a little before the holiday season started so most restaurants/shops in Fontane Bianche were closed, which is something to be aware of when you book.
