Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Messina

This is fabulous accommodation in the centre of Taormina. The villa was excellent in every way, with well-equipped kitchens. The roof top terrace was perfect for relaxing, with superb views of the town and Mount Etna. There were shops and many restaurants on our doorstep. John was very helpful, sorted out our taxi transfers and gave us lots of information about restaurants and local amenities. Very highly recommended!

We had a lovely stay. The house is very comfortable, and the garden is gorgeous. Our children were able to play in the garden and swimming pool. If you want to sit a little outside the tourist hustle and bustle, and yet have all the amenities at your fingertips, this is ideal. We'd love to come back.

We had a great stay in Tina’s place. Tina was always very helpful and very quick to respond to requests. The place is really peaceful and beautiful. To sit outside and listen to nightingales singing, scops owls calling at night and many more birds was fantastic. The only other noise was the bells on the cows as they came past the house to go for a drink. The flowers along the tracks are gorgeous. The place has a fantastic ambience. A wonderful relaxing retreat. Wish we had been able to stay longer.

Lovely hosts, great location, great pool area. Spectacular views, managed to see Etna erupting.

Our stay at Casa Scirocco Glicine contributed to a magical week. The house is in a lovely location, the interiors are well cared for and comfortable, the outdoor patio is very enjoyable even out of season (we were there in April). The garden looks like a botanical garden, beautiful to be able to walk in the middle of plants in harmony with each other. The best part of the house was probably being able to enjoy breakfast as soon as you wake up with a view of the sea from above, Volcano in the background and cedar trees, mandarins and cactus in the foreground, listening to many different species of birds that greeted the day! We were checked in by Heloisa who was very nice and approachable even in the following days. We were also lucky enough to meet Alice and William who were two wonderful and friendly people, available to respond to every request and with whom it was also very pleasant to chat while drinking a beer.

We had a great time! Listing is as described. Thanks to Cristina for her warm welcome, advice and responsiveness. I would recommend this place for families looking to spend a vacation in Calabria!

A perfect 2 night stay at Andrea’s place. The jacuzzi was a perfect addition as got quite chilly at night being up in the mountains. A very comfortable home and could have stayed a whole week! A perfect quiet stay in beautiful surroundings. Thank you so much!

The old cottage is surrounded by idyllic gardens, very quiet with a beautiful view of the sea to Calabria. It is carefully renovated and tastefully furnished, the kitchen is simple but equipped with everything you need, the bathroom is large. At the end of May, the weather was still quite cool, but a heating option was there. Our rental car was a bit big for the steep driveway, so parking was a bit tedious. The contact with Orazio was great, thank you for our original stay!

Wonderful house and location! We loved it here. The house has a lot of beautiful furniture, as well as an open terrace with a great view. The host Franco was so very kind, gave us many recommendations on local beaches and cafes

Salvos Villa is exactly as described and shown in the pictures - clean, well equipped and tastefully designed both inside and out. The great communication with Salvo himself is noteworthy - he felt approachable at any time of the day or night. The pool and garden were cleaned and maintained several times during our stay. We have no complaints and highly recommend this place.

If Sicily was an apartment - this would be it. It is lovely, very well decorated and gives you the full sicilian feeling. The terrace is very useful, you have the view on the sea and the mountains and it is large enough for all activities. Private and gated parking in front of the building, very easy to park safely. The host had all of the qualities of a good host - on time, responsive, willing to help, even gave us a small gift for easter. If you come here you will have a nice apartment, a friendly host and a good experience overall.

Great view and perfect price-value for such a well-kept house! We really loved staying there and we would love to go there again!

Helgas place exceeded our expectations. We had family of 7 and the apartment is spacious and very comfortable with an amazing view . The location is quiet whilst being only a few minutes walk from the town centre . We had a problem with the shower head and it was sorted within a couple of hours . Great service . Our family loved the week we spent in the apartment . Thoroughly recommended . John, Perth Australia

We were enchanted by the fantastic view and wonderful nature around us. In a quiet environment, we were able to relax and make great trips. The accommodation has everything you need and is very comfortably furnished. We particularly liked the large glass front and the wall painting in the bathroom. Cinzia was very friendly, helpful and always available. The road to the courtyard is bumpy but easily doable.

Only stayed for one night while travelling which was a shame as I would have liked to stay longer. very good location and a really good apartment, better than the photos. Friendly host as well

Elvira’s place was very clean and so spatious! The view was amazing and the sound of the waves was so peaceful. Elvira was very friendly and always answered quickly. We had a beautiful stay at her place. We would definitely recommend!

Sergio’s villa was the most beautiful place that we have ever stayed. Olive and citrus trees right in the yard and pristine views of Mount Etna. Restaurants, coffee, shops, and pharmacies were all within short walks from the home. I would stay again in a heartbeat, if Sergio would have us.

We had a friendly and warm welcome with Pina. The house is extremely clean, spacious, comfortable. The outdoor spaces are beautiful. Sea views on one side, Mount Etna on the other. Flowers in abundance. Quiet and serenity guaranteed. Pina was very welcoming and gave us a lot of information. Even though the house is isolated, we had all the necessary directions to get there. It is a typical house, tastefully furnished and above all filled with attention to make you feel at home. We highly recommend this place!!!

The property is off the beaten path and full of character. It’s got a wonderful garden and terrace area with amazing views of the surrounding mountains - the highlight of the place. The host was responsive. The only negative is the flushing of the toilet in the main apartment which doesn’t quite work right. However, the views and the fact there is a BBQ was provided more than made up for this minor inconvenience

Just about the closest accomodation you will find to Etna! It's a couple of miles off the main road that's a little bumpy in places but well worth the effort. A wonderfully peaceful house set in well maintained, spacious grounds (sit in the shade and soak up the wonderful view!) that is surprisingly cool in hot weather thanks to the thick lava walls. Nunzio couldn't be more helpful and was always contactable. Just be aware there is a resident (very friendly) dog as well as several cats.

It was an unforgettable experience. The location was stunning. It was a real pleasure to stay there. The people who welcomed us were incredibly kind. Everything was very clean. The hosts kept checking in to make sure we were doing well and helped us with all our questions. We are truly grateful for this experience. We highly recommend this place to everyone.

Our family of 5 had a wonderful time at Alberto’s home. He and his wife are wonderful hosts. The house was spacious and provided a small outdoor space for the kids as well to play ping pong! It’s in a great location for traveling to different sites: Downtown Milazzo - 10min Taormina - 1hr 30min Palermo/Catania - 2 plus hrs While we enjoyed our stay it’s important to note the home is in a community and there is really nothing that is walking distance. You will need to drive anywhere you’re trying to go. Overall we’d highly recommend staying here!

It would take more than five stars to do right to our experience with Villa Artemis. So far we always had good experiences with the accomedations we booked via AirBnB, but Villa Artemis totally exceeded our already high expectations. It was simply perfect. The house is spacious, tastefully decorated, and with no less than two living/dining rooms and two bathrooms. Outside the house there is are plenty of places to sit and relax with wonderfull views on both the sea and the Etna. The house is clean and well equiped. Everything you need for a great and carefree holliday is there. This review wouldn't be complete however if I didn't mention the family that hosts the place. Francesco, Giovanna, Antionio and Valeria were very kind, always willing to assist. They helped us out more than once. We are really happy to have met them, and hope to meet again.

I stayed at Sandra’s home with two of my close friends for 5 days and we just loved our time there. Sandra helped us book a private chef and we dined outdoors overlooking a breathtaking view of the countryside and sea. The home is situated perfectly to explore (with a rental car) Taormina, Siracusa/Ortigia, Mt. Etna, wineries, and other lovely towns. The pool and gardens were unreal — especially because the whole region is peaceful, birds chirping and a quiet breeze. I would be so lucky to stay in Sandra’s home again!
