I wish we could have stayed more than one night. Such a beautiful property and amazing service. Santuzza was kind and upgraded us to the room with the antique bed because we were on our honeymoon. She bent over backwards to ensure we had a pleasant stay. By far our best experience in all of Italy! The only reason I... More

Our flight arrived at Catania Airport late in the evening and this B&B is in an ideal location, just pick up your hire car and then it is 5 minutes down the road. Much better than going into Catania, especially if you are on a driving tour of the country and don't want to waste time. Located as it is... More

On behalf of the travelers and myself I would like to thank Mrs Santuzza for the great support given and the extraordinary help she gifted us. It is really amazing to find such efficiency nowadays in the tourism industry.

We spent a single night on our way home after nearly three weeks in Sicily. The property is lovely, and the greeting even more so. Our host was eager to assist with a difficulty we were having with Alitallia, going as far as phoning the US number for us on her phone hoping to find help. Our room was clean,... More

Lovely property and gracious host. This property is close to the airport and city. We were met by the owner of the property who was very nice and spent time to show us around in a very caring way. We would definite say there again and highly recommend it to others.

Beautiful, quiet, clean, peaceful, exceptional. The grounds around the family-owned castle are secure, wonderfully landscaped and meticulously groomed. The pool is quite large, and sparkling clear. I took almost as many pictures around the property as I took in Catania because it is so beautiful. Santuzza is a warm and gracious host, most helpful with mail I wanted to post... More

Our one disappointment was that we stayed only one night as we arrived on an evening flight and left the following day. This is the perfect B&B to stay, especially if needing to be near the airport. Santuzza's directions were excellent. The surroundings are gorgeous, rooms are lovely and the family are particularly welcoming and helpful. I would stay here... More

Beautiful place stay. Although in a funny location near airport , it is close to everything. 5 minutes to the main square of Cantania, 45 minutes to Mt. Etna and Taormina. Highly recommend it. We stayed for 2 nights with our two children.

Santuzza and her family run an excellent B&B! They are willing to help you out in any way - don't hesitate to ask. We stayed here for a night for an early morning flight out of Catania.This is hands-down the best place to stay in Catania for access to the airport, but I would recommend it to anyone staying in...

We stayed in this charming and beautiful B&B with our 3 children for 2 nights in mid March 2013, and it was pure delight. It is located 5 minutes from Catania airport which makes it a very convenient location after landing and before taking off. Regardless of it proximity to the airport it is very quite and relaxing as it... More
