Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Metropolitan city of Catania

This apartment and town are beautiful. It’s rooftop and balconies are even better than the photos, the town is a wonder to walk around in, the locals are friendly, warm, and fun, and Castiglione has a certain magic quality in the air. To anyone thinking of it as a spot to settle and do a bunch of day trips, just know it takes a while to drive down the mountain to the main highway. I found it fun and beautiful, but you’ll want to budget the extra time to get places. Thank you for an incredible stay - one of my favorite ever!

Apartment for 2 people well maintained, clean, with everything you need. The host has always been kind and available for any need since our arrival. Flexible check-in and check-out, Jose has always met our requests. The location of the house is not central to the city and unfortunately the area in which it is located is not kept at its best. Without the car it is necessary to rely on buses (feasible but not simple) or walk at least to the center (about a 25-minute walk). The wifi in the house is also great.

We stayed 4 nights in the flat and went on day trips to Syracusa, Taormina and Etna. First, the flat is confortable, with every bedrooms having shower and toilets. The living room/kitchen is big enough to have breakfast but not enough confortable if you plan to stay the all day inside. Secondly, but up to me, it is well decorated with upcycled stuff. Finally, the flat is well located. Lots of restaurants and bar near by. And few minutes walking from main touristic area. Stazione centrale might be a little bit far away.

Nice house and very pleasant communication with the hosts. The house is tastefully decorated. There was not much in the village, but sometimes it is also very nice to be the only tourist. A day to Taormina is highly recommended!

Pete’s place is in a beautiful part of Mineo, a gorgeous little medieval town in central Sicily. The house itself is beautifully renovated and extremely comfortable with everything you would need for a great stay. Pete himself was responsive, clear with his communications and flexible. I couldn’t rate this stay more highly. Recommended unreservedly,

We loved staying here. Alessandra and her mother were very helpful with getting set up, and even though it is next to a busy street, the high ivy covered walls make it feel like an oasis. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the grounds are incredible. The pool is great. it felt bigger than the pictures, and the deep end was good for teaching the kids how to dive. they even have a trampoline! Highly recommend for a peaceful escape.

Great location & felt right at home, it is situated in the beautiful and historic part of town, very walkable, and the host is very welcoming and friendly. One of the few places so far that i would recomend to my own family.

Dear Giada :) we had a really really great stay.

Our holiday with three families was fantastic. We especially enjoyed the outdoor space of villa Sofia: beautiful swimmingpool (though cold water end of October), a huge outdoor kitchen with possibility to cook on a gas stove or a lava stone, romantic setting of the outdoor table around the old olive tree. The extra entertainment tent is great for spending evenings together, having table tennis contests, as wel as playing pool or darts or table football. We also used the karaoke, it was a lot of fun. The (teenage) children could stay in the chalets with basic furnishings and the adults had three bedrooms in the ground floor apartment (sharing one bathroom). The parents of Benedetta stay on the property, but are very discrete. There are 2 small friendly dogs and some cats on the property. Benedetta received us on arrival and was extremely friendly. This is agriturismo at its best!

Angela and her husband are great hosts 😁

Best place we have stayed in italy,and we have been going for several years. Marco was very attentive and helpful.. A real gem.

We stayed 2 weeks and it was a great base for exploring the east side of Sicily and Etna. A hire car is essential as the apartment is located in a quiet spot away from the main centres. The apartment itself was spacious and comfortable with great views from the wrap around balcony. The swimming pool was a real bonus - we made use of it most days. Salvatore & Antonio were very helpful and responsive to requests (many thanks!). Highly recommended if, like us, you are looking for a peaceful getaway.

We had a lovely stay for 3 days in October. Apartment is really nice and modern. We visited Etna 2 times. It is about 45 min by car to Etna South. We had a nice stay, many thanks

Giovanni’s place is very nice and well-appointed. Giovanni and his wife Jenny were very prompt in helping us with some issues we had at home. I strongly recommend this place but preferably during the spring/summer season.

Outstanding place, just out of the city so it was peaceful, but close enough to be in the centre within minutes (we hired a scooter). The compound itself felt incredibly secure and was beautiful to relax in. Girlfriend fell in love with the cats on the property which were very friendly but not constantly around us. The pool was a great way to wake up every morning but the real espresso machine was an authentic and lovely touch. It is right next to the main street to get into town, which had a fair amount of traffic but the property had a fantastic garden which concealed you away from it, so we honestly didn't really notice the noise. All in all, I would recommend this listing to anyone, and will certainly return if we find ourselves in that part of the island again. 10/10

Pietro’s house is such a beautiful place! The view alone is priceless. Pietro was able to guide us all along, warm and welcoming!

This place is fantastic, very helpful hosts and beautiful villa. Would recommend to anyone 10/10

I spent a wonderful month in this location - it's clean and comfortable with good wifi for remote working - perfect for what I was after. Maria is a wonderful host who is always responsive and cleaned the place once a week while leaving me nice things for breakfast! She even gave me a lift to and from Catania (c.10km) with my heavy suitcase. Trecastagni is a pleasant town on the slopes of Etna with accessible supermarkets and other essential shops as well as a some nice bars and restaurants and several churches. This location is better for those with private vehicles as the buses to/from Trecastagni are somewhat unreliable and it is a walk of several miles to the nearest train station (Acireale). However for those with vehicles it offers good access to Etna as well as other attractions in the area such as Catania and Acireale.

A comfortable and well-equipped accommodation. An attentive host. Full breakfast. Note: The kitchen is common with two other bedrooms.

Our stay in Sicily was truly unforgettable! The house had a beautiful character, filled with charming details that made it feel like a home. The garden was a stunning oasis, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the warm Sicilian evenings. Our host, Carlo, was exceptional—always available to answer questions and provide recommendations. The highlight of our trip was the incredible five-course Sicilian dinner Carlo organized for us, showcasing the region's delicious cuisine. Each dish was a delight! The location itself is a must-visit, with breathtaking views and rich culture all around. We felt immersed in the beauty and warmth of Sicily. Highly recommend this lovely spot for anyone looking to experience the best of the island!

Probably the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Definitely the most beautiful! The pictures don’t do it justice, and the surroundings are breathtaking. Dina and Nino are so friendly, I highly recommend the cooking class. Driving in the area will definitely give you a few more grey hairs, but we made it fine. If you’re looking for a beautiful rustic stay away from the city and you don’t mind small mountain roads this is the best you’ll find.

Very welcoming cabin, very recommended

We spent a 10 day vacation here as a group of friends. Already upon arrival we were overwhelmed by the beauty of property and surroundings: located in the beautiful lemon grove overlooking the slopes of Mount Etna and the sea. It couldn't get any better! Boredom never arose, the area offers a lot! However, a car is important. There was also always something to do on the property: beautiful pool, ping pong table, foosball, football or cooking in the great kitchen... and always fresh lemons. Maria Gulia and Angelo are super friendly and often helped us with tips and quick answers. The villa is an absolute recommendation!!

independent apartment, special, well-kept, complete with everything and equipped with a garden that you would never expect to find
