The room was comfortable and had all we needed. The garden was very cute and the breakfast area was nicely decorated. Communication with host was easy and efficient. He suggested a restaurant to have sea food which was excellent. We overall enjoyed our stay very much. Also, very fast internet
La Castellese enjoys a location in Aci Castello, 29 miles from Isola Bella and 30 miles from Taormina Cable Car – Upper Station.

The size of the room and bathroom were perfect. The bed was very comfortable. The balcony was so relaxing and nice to sit on. A one minute walk to the water and to a few delicious restaurants. Even though it is part of someone’s home I felt very comfortable and welcome. My host was also a huge help in figuring out transportation.

Locals were rude and often very Arrogant and attempted to overcharge far too many times. They hope you won’t challenge them about it. My advice is , Ask how much before paying and Check your receipts and bills .
The town is scruffy and dirty. The vast amounts of discarded Rubbish on the streets is difficult to ignore. Definitely would not return.
Positive note : The sea view and the sunset is beautiful.

Actually Frasteva is located in the town of Valverde not in...
Actually Frasteva is located in the town of Valverde not in Aci Castello, which is a short drive awa. It is more inland than Aci Castello and it is convenient to all of the towns that make up "Paesi Etnei", that is, the little towns on the southeastern slope of Mount Etna, which are suburbs of Catania. It is a great jumping off point for Taormina, Catania and Siracusa and is a twenty-five minute ride to the airport, depending on traffic.
What makes this newly renovated and picturesque venue a perfect stay are the wonderful accomodations and the personal and cheery attention to detail given to all that stay there by its host, Stefania. She is simply an absolute pleasure to interact with. I am going there the next time I return to the Catania area and I assure anyone who stays there that they will not be disappointed.

Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT!
Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT! It had literally a derelict entrance, with wires dangling from the ceiling, parts of which appeared to be about to give in; filthy place (I was expecting to see rats it was that bad!)....It is NOT close to the beach (although the place had a seaview); I would certainly NOT recommend to anybody! Will most certainly not book again! If I were to rate it honestly I would give a 2/10 and the 2 is only for the seaview!

Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea.
Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea. So fish is staple. It is a bit laid back . Think basic and you will love it.
It is such a shame that the towns coming down to Aci Castello (note that this town is close to sea level) have a lot of garbage scattered around and gives you a very different vibe of this beautiful basic fishing village ..

Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore...
Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore the area - the wonderful coastline up to Taormina, the great sights while trekking around Etna, and breathtaking villages like Castiglione di Sicilia.
Aci Castello is smaller and quieter than its walk-to, more touristy neighbour Aci Trezzo, and 'The Sea You Can Feel' is a unique place to stay, perched high above the rocky coastline. There are stunning 360 degree views from the spacious roof terrace, a perfect place to indulge in a sundowner or two, whilst the 'lookout' below has 3 walls of windows for relaxing and taking in the amazing location!
The owners, Giuseppe and Antonella are passionate about Sicily and gave us loads of useful advice.
Thrilled we selected Villa Ortensia and chose to stay outside Catania in Aci Castello. Great location to explore the Mt. Etna region and day-trip to Taormina. From our balcony we enjoyed the sunrise over Ionian Sea each morning. Breakfast was a great assortment of items to kick off the day (yogurt for protein, no meat or cheese). Secured parking on street with gate. Easy walk to several restaurants for evening fare. After driving in Catania and trying to find parking, it's a no brainer to head north to stay and explore!
The location of the apartment is perfect, only 5 minutes from the sea, a grocery store, and great restaurants! The host was so kind, and nice, when we arrived she welcomed us with delicious sweets! The apartment is really clean and comfortable, the pillows are amazing to sleep on! The balconies were a blessing and the view was great, on the roof the terrace is easily accessible and a great place to relax, or sunbathe! It was a pleasure to stay here, and if we come back to Sicily we will definitely stay here again!
Great location, close to the little marina, a bunch of superb restaurants, stores and bakeries. Small balcony with lovely view of the marina. Appartman was not too big, but very well equipped, with all the appliances one can ask for. The place is new and well maintained. Easy to find free parking on the streets nearby.
Excellent communication with the host. Very responsive, with some great recommendations for local restaurants. Can only recommend.
The apartment was a fantastic find. It has kitchen, sitting room, bathroom, bedroom, and then a terrace with a view looking right at the Castello Normanno and the sea. The ground floor is a restaurant, but there are plenty more around town. The town square (one block away, in front of the castle) was lovely and lively. Oh- the washing machine was a convenience, as we had been in hotels the previous few nights.
It was our second time at La Terrazza, and won’t be the last one. Everything was great. Apartment is located right at the seafront. It has two big terraces, one overlooking the sea and the castle. Many restaurants, shops and cafes are within walking distance. Lucrezia (owner) is very warm and helpful person and she will make sure you have enjoyable stay. She also bakes the best pear tarts ever!
The size of the room and bathroom were perfect. The bed was very comfortable. The balcony was so relaxing and nice to sit on. A one minute walk to the water and to a few delicious restaurants. Even though it is part of someone’s home I felt very comfortable and welcome. My host was also a huge help in figuring out transportation.
Everything was wonderful, great location with a lot of restaurants and cafeterias around, cozy, the place is clean, we had everything we need for cooking, the host was amazing, he gave us a lot of informations about the cities around to visit, very friendly, very helpful. I totally recommend.
Everything was perfect. The location is gorgeous, fully equiped, spacious, impecably clean. There is a bus station 1 min away, lots of restaurants and markets. Patrizia is a great host, she's kind and likes to help and support her guests. We loved our stay here, we felt like home.
There is an amazing view of the sea with access to the beach just across the street. The swimming pool in the back was delightful and refreshing! staff was very friendly and helpful and breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea and the 3 Cyclops was a very memorable experience.
The property was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It was also in a great location, very close to small shops, restaurants, and cafés. The host gave clear instructions on how to enter the property and use the facilities inside such as WiFi.
The room was spacious and clean, and the owner very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed the free breakfast of pastries and coffee. The hotel is just a short walk away from Aci Castello’s main square, and a half hour drive to the airport in Catania.
The experience Peppe gives: it's not just a B&B, it's like being at home. The view is fantastic, the breakfast various and super tasty, the location is perfect for reaching Catania, Taormina or the Etna.
I'll definitely be back!
Nice spacious apartments with high ceilings, clean and comfortable. There is everything you need for your stay. 2 minutes walk to the sea. Restaurants, bars and baked goods are within walking distance.
It was very nice, the flat is located in a nice area ,lots of bars,restaurants. Close to the centre of Catania. The owners are kind and helpful. Would come back definitely.
