“beautiful property, beautiful village, regret that we couldn’t have had a longer visit to explore the village properly.”
Beautiful old restored house to a very high standard. the charming owner offered us a free upgrade on lower level as he thought my mobility issues climbing the stairs was more suitable to me, which was very kind of him I didn’t ask for. As we were leaving too early for breakfast, he supplied a kettle and cups for the room. Lovely peaceful private terrace in quiet court yard. Bathroom was suppled v well with toiletries. Best shower in Sicily having experienced 3 previous places in our week. Slept very well

“Warm hospitality and an experience far beyond expectations.”
This accommodation far exceeded my expectations. The owner and his partner welcomed us with great warmth and hospitality. Although the breakfast was simple, it was by no means ordinary, the croissants and cappuccino were truly above standard. Highly recommended.

“Charming Stay, Perfect Location”
We had a great stay after a demanding stage of the Via Francigena Fabaria. The room was clean and comfortable, and although it was showing its age a bit, it had far more personality than a standard hotel room. A very nice breakfast at local bar, was included. Our host was very friendly and communication was excellent — and recommended a great restaurant for dinner. The location was perfect: close to bars, shops, and the main piazza. Checking in and out was very smooth.

Great host, Antonio went out of his way to be helpful, printing our flight boarding passes and delivering them to our room. Room was modern and comfortable. We were asked what type of croissant we would like for breakfast and they were the best of the whole Sicilian tour. Location was no more than 10 mins walk to local bars / restaurants.

Beautiful Italian style accommodation in a cozy little village! The owners were wonderfully, very helpful! The breakfast is great, they offer you a private parking place in front of the house, shower and bed also very good! But most of all we loved our conversations with Antonio, he is the best!!!

Militello Val di Catania is a beautiful and friendly town that deserves more visitors! The B & B is very comfortable and located in the heart of the town. The owner was very welcoming and our late arrival from the airport was no problem for him. Lovely simple breakfast - I recommend the pistachio croissants!

“Idyllic and romantic”
Antonio is great. We had a delayed flight and he waited for us until we arrived at 01:30. AM. The B&B is small, antique but very well equiped. Militello is a nice village to escape from mass tourism.

“Porta Della Terrific”
We were so happy with everything about the B&B and all it has to offer! The B&B is beautiful - stunning architecture, the room was perfect and had everything we needed. The facility itself is situated in the perfect location. Antonio and Josephine are both amazing and provided us with exceptional service. Breakfast was also wonderful and they pre-order i cornetti so that you have them fresh the next morning at breakfast! We cannot wait to come back!!
