“It was great”
This is a lovely property that was close enough to main areas but well away from the crowd. Tino and his parents looked after us really well. The place is relatively new but yet everything was perfect. We had great breakfast and dinners prepared by Tino and his parents. Everything was super fresh and grown from the farm! We even did a pasta class with Tino and it was so much fun. I hope more people will choose to stay here!

“Perfect Stay in Nature with Great Hospitality”
We had a wonderful stay at this B&B! It’s beautifully located in nature, offering a peaceful atmosphere while still being conveniently accessible to all the main points of interest in the area. The owner is very friendly and helpful – he provided us with lots of useful information about local attractions and hiking routes, which helped us make the most of our trip. Our room was spacious and comfortable, everything was perfectly clean and well-maintained. We also enjoyed a good breakfast every morning, and dinner was available as well, which was both convenient and tasty. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a relaxing getaway in nature with hospitality and comfort!

“Nice rural stay in modern and comfortable farmhouse”
Location - convenient for Mt Etna and Taormina, quiet countryside, near beach (pebble) - both free beach and lido. Modern, comfortable bedroom/ensuite bathroom - very clean/new. Great hot water. Nice swimming pool. Friendly and welcoming owner who speaks excellent English. Parking on-site. Good security. Nice dining area. We didn't choose to include breakfast, so we cannot comment on this. However, the owner is a chef!

Well situated for many sights around. An own car is recommended. Nice room with very comfortable bed. Nice and very calm environment. Very friendly hosts. Excellent breakfast and dinner menus with locally produced ingredients. Nice pool, which we didn’t use due to the rainy weather

We enjoyed our stay very much. The owners at Minissale are excellent hosts, very friendly and welcoming. We loved the breakfast on the terrace and the dinners of local produce, true Sicilian cuisine. The room was very comfortable and impeccably well kept, with a glimpse of the sea, a lovely view of Taormina and the Melanzane fields behind the farmhouse. They have a nice salt water pool in the garden and also a large beautiful quiet beach nearby. We were swimming in crystal clear water with a direct view of the summit of Monte Etna emitting plumes of smoke. In short, a perfect stay.

“Excellent stay. highly recommended”
The farmhouse is nicely situated amongst areas of greenery and lovely views. Tino and his mother were very welcoming and lovely people to chat with. Tino suggested places to visit and provided us with locations too. Breakfast was nicely presented and served outdoors, along with homemade juice, cakes and jams. Rooms are very comfortable too. Overall it was a very pleasant stay and definately recommended.

“Lovely family-run farmhouse surrounded by nature”
This is a lovely, family-run place. There's so much attention to detail, it was a joy to stay here. The farmhouse is surrounded by greenery, with Mt. Etna visible from the upper floors. I booked at the last minute and they went out of their way to feed me (ideally one should book 24 hours before), giving me a 4-course meal of delicious home-made food. The room was lovely and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were extremely helpful. I will definitely be back. Oh, and the breakfast cakes were absolutely amazing!
