This winery-accommodation was simply magical. We had a friendly check in. After dinner, we returned to have a wine tasting. We bought some wine and sipped it by the pool as we watched the sunset. In the morning, we watched the sunrise over the vineyard. It was breath taking! Excellent service and experience.

Peaceful, scenic, just the loveliest place to stay
I made a mistake and booked us for 2 nights instead of one, and I am delighted to have made such a mistake. Tucked under the awesome sight of Mt Etna this delightful and spacious apartment was perfect. Amongst the wine grove, there is no winery, which is what we were looking for to stay on, but couldn't find the one for our dates. There is a restaurant which serves very nice food. They let us take a half litre jug of wine back to our apartment. We were lucky the day we woke up, not blue blue sky, but clear enough to see the black plumes of smoke belching from the grumbling mountain. The apartment had a clean bathroom albeit quite small, and as usual, a very tiny shower. Bed comfortable and spacious. Totally blacked out room and dead quiet for a good night's sleeping. Only thing is the wifi didn't make it at any speed up to the apartments, so don't rely on that

We liked the fact that it was close to etna mountain but the photos and site discription/ experiance expectation do not add up to what you actaully get. It wassss bad. First when we got there we had just drove through some erie towns with some roads covered in trash. Then to check in we waited around for 30min before anyone spoted us. We were put in this big room that was creepy. Not to mention there was fog which added to the scary atomphere. We had dinner there and i almost puked when i ate the sause on the meatballs. The bed in the room was so bad we barley slept and left at 7am the next morning and drove to Palemo and stayed at the Alma hotel which was amazing, even tho we had paid for 2 nights here. If you really want to stay in this area and do Etna valcano activities you can go to this place called Etna golf and Spa.

I have made Expedia aware that the advertised facilities are not there. There is not a restaurant on site. You are in a vine grove but there is no winery on site. There is no adequate air conditioning or shade from the heat. The pool is very small and away from the accommodation block. Furniture in the rooms is old. No WiFi on site and very poor phone signal. This is not a good venue to stay. We arrived and departed within the hour accepting we had made a mistake not trusting the negative reviews and believing the inflated scores on the website. There is a total lack of care from the owners and no information available on arrival.

Terrible!!
False advertising. No winery, restaurant closed over 2 years ago! No wifi, checkin terrible. No one in staff speaks English or cares about anything. Room stark. In the middle of no where. Paid for 2 nights but left after one night, should get refund! Not even coffee available.

Response from Vera on 17 Oct 2018
To respond to the gentlemen: therefore, the events that we also advertise on social media and concerning the restaurant, what sense would they have with a restaurant closed for two years? The restaurant is closed for 15 days for local renewal, but will reopen as soon as possible. We gave her an apartment overlooking the vineyards, we're a winery, and since you do not like the tranquility of the countryside the next time you book in town. Our company is a family business, no one has announced who knows what industrial company and, finally, the wi-fi network works. We are still sorry for all these misunderstandings. Greetings,

Well, it is an Agriturismo.
I stayed one night and it was just me. Maybe this place is more for larger groups and in warmer weather. The staff was very helpful. I discovered AS116 was closed in the direction I needed to go (discovered by chance) and they were helpful in finding another route for me. They could improve the breakfast. The cereal was stale.

Poor service, depressing interiors
The photos make this place look nice, but the rooms are very basic and even falling a part (shower parts fall off, plugs have wires exposed, lamps missing light bulbs, had to ask for extra blankets), the pool is very small and is not kept clean and the service was horrible!!!! (We were asked what time we wanted breakfast as if it were included and then we found out they wanted to charge us 10 euros for coffee and a croissant--a situation they handled very unprofessionally; I also had to work the credit card machine myself as the woman working there had no idea how to use it). When we came back from dinner in a nearby town, we found the gate closed (they never warned us it would be closed) and had to call several times before someone came to let us in.

Spectacular view from Etna Wine
We stayed at Etna wine in August (2014), managed to arrive there using a GPS as it is found in a remote area but it was worth it! The estate is lovely and the view is spectacular. This is an ideal destination for those who want to get away from the city and the busy streets. The staff is very friendly and helpful, giving us information on the surrounding areas and also providing us with a delicious breakfast in the morning. The rooms are spacious, well kept and clean. Highly recommended.

Fantastic agristurismo, large and clean room (really an apartment), wonderful location and setting, warm hosts/hostesses. If you want a farm-style vacation site, go.

Fin plassering for besøk hos ulik vingårder i området. Stort rom, men med harde senger og puter, samt at AC ikke fungerte. Svært lite dusjkabinett. Flott gammelt hovedbygg på en rolig vingård. De snakker ikke engelsk.

Nous n'avons pas pu dîner sur place le Resto était fermé le soir. On nous a demandé l'heure à laquelle nous souhaitions prendre le petit dej mais le lendemain matin rien de prévu. Mario est très sympathique il a emmené notre fille sur son petit camion mobylette et nous a fait une dégustation.

Italiensk for begyndere
Ligger i et skønt område, hvor der virkelig er fred. Der kan overhovedet ikke tales andet end Italiensk, men værtsparret er virkelig hjælpsomme. Dog er der ikke aircondition, hvilket specielt om sommeren, gør at det er meget varmt at sove. Skal også være opmærksom på toiletartikler består at nogle små poser showergel, og at daglig rengøring ikke er indbefattet.

Met een woord: teleurstellend
We wilden dichtbij de Etna zitten. Maar dit hotel zit aan de noordkant en de zuidkant van de Etna is de mooiste (hier kun je het meest dichtbij de kraters komen via een skilift, aan de noordkant kun je slechts tot 1800 meter, hier zie je nog bebossing, wij wisten dit niet van tevoren). Passo Pisciaro, zo heet het dorpje waar het hotel is, is wel leuk gelegen tussen de dorpen Randazzo (10 min) en Castiglione di Sicilia (30 min). Het zwembad bevatte insecten, haarballen en andere viezigheid. En heel veel chloor! De kamers waren in augustus bloedheet, alsof je in een sauna slaapt. Geen airco! Veel last gehad van het geluid van knagende houtwormen in de houten plafondbalken. Er was geen wifi zoals beloofd en ook het pinapparaat functioneerde niet, waardoor we last minute nog op zoek moesten naar een pinautomaat. Voor twee nachten hebben we een flink bedrag neergeteld, waar wij heel wat luxe voor verwachtten, waar we absoluut niets van gemerkt hebben, het was vooral 'simpel' en 'eenvoudig'. Het ontbijt was 'Siciliaans'. Een slappe croissant, niet aan te raden. Verder was er wel een mooi uitzicht vanaf het zwembad en waren er weinig muggen door het fijne windje dat brieste vanaf de vulkaan.

Servizi non all'altezza, ristorante non funzionan
Ristorante non funzionante, piscina senza riciclo acqua, tavoli piscina, sedie e lettini arrugginiti o rotti, parco giochi molto vecchio. Di buono solo l'appartamento. Ma per gli altri servizi non corrispondono alla pubblicità del sito. Le degustazioni dei prodotti tipici nel periodo prenotato non esistono

Skøn beliggenhed med fantastisk udsigt til Etna.
Vi nød vores ophold og ville gerne have tilbragt et par dage mere da det var et fantastisk område. Køreturen dertil var smuk.Desværre var vingårdens restaurant lukket da vi var der men den restaurant vi blev henvist til 800 m længere nede af vejen var fantastisk. Meget venlig og imødekommen service fra værtinden.

etna-wine agritourismo 2014 im Juni/juli
Wir fanden ein sauberes und geräumiges Studio vor. Service war perfekt. Die Lage des Hauses in den Weinbergen traumhaft. Sehr guter Stützpunkt für den Besuch von Sehenswürdigkeiten in der näheren Umgebung oder für eine Tour auf den Etna. Wer Lust zur Entspannung am Pool suchte, der konnte auch dies tun.
