A real discovery... in the center of Riposto a few steps from the sea... The structure is beautiful attention to detail. Everywhere you can breathe the passion and great taste of the owners who were helpful and very kind, We felt at home. The terrace is nothing short of wonderful with an incredible view of Mount Etna, (which also gave us an eruption with a privileged view from the terrace). Everything there gives emotions. Excellent breakfasts with homemade cakes and sublime jams. A special thanks to the owners for the welcome and availability shown.

A hidden Eden in the middle of Riposto. Excellent hosts and the best accommodation we have ever had the pleasure to stay in throughout Italy. We received an extremely warm welcome from arrival to departure and excellent service throughout including arrangement of transfers. Marina & Giuseppe cooked us a delicious traditional Sicilian evening meal and the breakfasts are second to none. The building and decor are superb. We were lucky to see beautiful views of Mount Etna from the gorgeous roof top terrace and the Mediterranean sea from the upper terrace. Camelie is truly the pearl in the oyster of Sicily.

Great atmosphere with beautiful roof terrace and views of Mount Etna. The room is clean, and the hosts are flexible and accommodating, from arrival to farewell. You can also book breakfast or dinner here.

We would love to stay longer!

This lovely B&B and the warm welcome and hospitality we received from our lovely host Marina, really made our holiday. The roof terrace garden is exactly as it looks in the professional photographs and the wonderful view of Mount Etna is an extra bonus. I think the best part though was Marina's fabulous cooking and the variety and quality of the breakfasts and dinners she provided, and at such great value. Although we tried a couple of local restaurants, they couldn't compare to Marina's excellent cooking of traditional Sicilian food and we ended up eating at the B&B most evenings. There would be something different cooked for breakfast every day and it was a delight to see what each morning would bring! Definitely the most enjoyable breakfasts we have had anywhere. The palazzo is lovely and every room is different with lots of character and interesting ceilings and features. Would definitely recommend.

We had a really enjoyable stay with the lovely hosts, Marina and Guiseppe who very cleverly arranged for a major eruption from Mount Etna during our stay. Their beautiful palazzo is perfectly situated to take in the view of Etna and the surroundings. The terrace is a wonderful place to chill out and we were made to feel very welcome in their home. The dinner on arrival was one of the best meals we had in Sicily with wonderful wines. Breakfast was very plentiful and tasty served on the terrace in the shadow of Etna. All in all this was a five star stay.

I cannot say enough good things about this B&B. The owners and hosts are warm, charming, welcoming, and accommodating. We stayed for 4 nights and every evening we looked forward to a drink and a chat with Giuseppe and Marina. The rooms are very comfortable and beautiful, with high ceilings and a lot of space. There were triple windows in our room (and, I think, in all rooms) which reduced the noise level from outside to basically zero. There is also AC, which was nice. The real selling point for this B&B, however, is the terrace; filled with plants and herbs, overflowing with beautiful flowers. At night Etna was erupting, which made for some spectacular viewing. We also took advantage, one evening, of the optional dinner. The food was fresh, local, and excellent. Parking is free, indoors, and close by. Wifi worked through most of the B&B, the breakfast is fresh and plentiful (fresh fruit, pastry, and eggs every morning!). The town, Riposto, is very charming, has some great waterfront strolls, excellent restaurants, and is convenient to Taormino and Catania, as well as Etna. We have traveled all over Italy, and this is hands down the best place we have stayed. Grazie!!!!

If you want to stay in a palace with a beautiful view over Etna close to the beach, and a very personal relation to the friendly staff, this is the place for you.

We stayed here for four nights. We had high expectations but were still positively surprised. Even though this is a Bed & Breakfast, and not a "hotel", we could not ask for anything more.

Marina offers a home cooked dinner served on the terrace. Even though we had special dietary needs (vegetarian) she managed to give us the most amazing meal. Recommended!

The house cat King Arthur was a nice addition to the familial environment.

We can highly recommend this place to anyone if you are planning to go to Riposto.

This hidden gem provides beautiful rooms with ornate decor and charming antique furniture. The hosts Marina & Guiseppe took such good care of us with home made breakfast on the terrace and helpful information about the area. We were perfectly placed to watch Etna erupting at night from our terrace and we were lucky enough to see it. Treasured moments.

We are a family of three and we stayed at the Camelie b&b in May 2017. It is a very beautiful and very welcoming accommodation, a true b&b of charm! It is located in a family palace and situated right in the center of Riposto. It is beautiful, decorated with great taste and with an eye for detail. It makes us go back in time ... It has a wonderful and huge terrace / garden, with a lot of privacy and a breathtaking view on the Etna!! Marina and Giuseppe are the owners and they are fantastic. They make us feel quickly at home and transmit us a feeling of welcome. The breakfast is fabulous, very tasty and varied. Each morning Marina pampers the guests with her home made specialties. There is also the possibility of having dinner at the b & b. I strongly advise to have it, because the dinner is simply divine!!! Mariana and Giuseppe create a super cozy atmosphere and serve a dinner worthy of the gods, with Sicilian specialties and with super fresh and tasty ingredients. The b & b Camelie is a place where people stay and do not want to leave. Many thanks to Mariana and Giuseppe for offering us some fantastic days.Family Peters

This B&B is in a building full of character, and Marina is a charming hostess, not to mention being a great cook.

Our room was spacious and well equipped, with a view of the Camellias in the courtyard garden. Above was a large roof terrace looking out on Mt Etna, and leading to an exquisite dining room.

Breakfasts were great and we chose to eat or evening meal there twice, also. These were amongst the best meals I can remember having anywhere. Marina presents some wonderful Sicilian dishes.

Finally, the location, in Riposto, close to Taormina and Etna, made a great base for our 4 day visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to anyone.

"A couple of the bedrooms do not have ensuite bathrooms but ours, the Romantica, did which was beautiful and palatial! The road at the front is quite noisy but the shutters provide good soundproofing. I am a light sleeper and slept well. Had Murano Glass chandelier in our room!"
