“Aw wonderful stay with wonderful hosts.”

First and foremost I must point out something about the host Melania and her mother. They are super wonderful and very helpful typical Mediterranean. Got greeted with a smile and Melania's mum showed us through everything, even explaining to us the best ways to go to visit Etna. When we needed help Melania went all the way to help us and managed to arrange things out for us so that we would be super comfortable. Thanks a lot. When it comes to the place, wow all our expectations were reached and beyond, the area is so quiet and peaceful with the distant sea views and country views from all the balconies, it is like a small resort with all facilities needed, not forgetting that just behind the house far in the distance is mount Etna spectacular!!! Nothing bad that I have to say about this stay its wonderful, with superb hosts Melania and her mother Signora Pina ☺️. Sure when visiting Sicily u must, you must give this stay a try.. Thanks Cortilio for giving us nice memories.

I believe that is the best place you can stay in the area. Beautiful territory with swimming pool and rest area. Spacious apartments with everything you may need. Everything was new and clean. Additional thanks to our host Melania. We experienced some problems with the car and she was extremely kind and helpful, organized the rental car and helped us with everything we needed. The place is 10/10 !

“Amazing!”

Our stay was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Claudio and Melania were truly outstanding hosts.. friendly, attentive, and always ready to go the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable. At one point we casually mentioned that it would be nice to have a BBQ, and to our surprise, they went out and bought a brand-new one right away so we could enjoy it during our stay. The property itself is set in a stunning location, surrounded by breathtaking scenery that made every moment feel special. It was the perfect combination of warm hospitality and a beautiful setting, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

“Awesome”

We loved absolutely the setting of the accomodation. A beautiful garden, big rooms, balconies etc. It just worked! The host is great and very helpful. The place is super peaceful.

“Top property, excellent host and enjoyable stay for families or couples who want privacy.”

Very friendly host Melania, highly recommended, the place is a hidden gem. You need a car to access it, but you can stay away from city life and immerse in peace and tranquility.

“A lovely place to relax by the pool, or get out and explore Sicily from.”

The location is away from the main towns and villages. The apartment was lovely, we were ground floor overlooking the pool, lovely big patio and swing chair, table and chairs under cover to keep out the sun. Melania was great, very helpful and explained everything very well. She was always a message away if you needed anything and happy to help. There are some good restaurants nearby, we visited all of them and they were all very good. Riposto has a selection of restaurants but if you are after a more refined experience dress-up and go to Piccolo Scalo, it has five stars on Google reviews for a reason.

“Excelente”

The Host Melania was extremely friendly!, very nice and well kept garden

Sure! Here’s a polished version of your review in clear and professional English: ⸻ Amazing Stay – Highly Recommended! Melania is an exceptional host—always available, incredibly friendly, and truly dedicated to making your stay peaceful and comfortable. The property is exactly as shown in the photos, with no surprises. If you plan to rent a car (which I highly recommend), there’s a secure driveway with remote control access, making it easy to come and go at any time. The location is extremely safe and quiet—perfect for a relaxing vacation. I usually don’t write reviews, especially for properties that are already rated 5 stars, but this one absolutely deserves it. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway where you can unwind, cook, and enjoy some time indoors, this is the perfect place for you.

“Nice people and a beautiful place”

The property is clean and well maintained. It has a beautiful ocean view and the pool area is also very nicely done. Melania and the owners did everything to make our stay as comfortable als possible. Which we very much appreciated.

“Wonderful, relaxing stay at a fabulous place.”

Everything was excellent. Melania, the host was so helpful and replied to my WhatsApp messages straight away. The pool area is amazing and very clean with beautiful gardens. More lounges and umbrellas than needed. Our little terrace had a good view. Excellent shower and very quiet air conditioning. A good restaurant 10 minutes walk away and many more a short drive away.

“Amazing stay, highly recommended!!!!”

The pool area is amazing and the room is equipped with all necessities. The location is perfect in the centre of all the top attractions of catania area. The property owners really made us feel confortable, will definetly visit again 100%.

“Cherry on the top of our trip”

Wonderful well equipped villa, large pool, beautiful garden, smooth check-in, even arranged later check-out, as our flight was in the evening. Moreover, Etna has erupted during out stay and it was visible from the villa, had a nice evening watching it with a glass of wine.

“Great location, great facilities and very clean”

Exceptionally clean. Excellent pool. Perfect location for touring Sicily. Very responsive and helpful host who gave us excellent dinner recommendations and even helped us pay our parking fine.

“A quiet getaway surrounded by nature”

The studio was good size and had a fully equipped kitchen, smart TV, and a nice little terrace. The accommodation is situated in a lush green and quiet area with views to the sea but it's still very close to the local town's shops and restaurants. The pool area is beautiful.

“Absolutely stunning place”

This was the nicest place I stayed in during my two weeks trip around Sicily. The place is so beautiful, modern peaceful and clean. It has everything you need to have a great time. We had two balconies, sea view, access to washing machine… It’s half an hour drive from many hot spots like Taormina, Giardini di Naxos, Catania etc.

Beautiful property, great accommodation. We had a wonderful time!
