Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Bova Marina

This is an amazing house on a beachfront road in a charming little town. There is a small square in walking distance that has a nice bar/coffee shop and restaurant. The house itself is lovely with very comfortable beds and amazing views both of the ocean out the front door and balcony, and of Mt Etna out of the two back balconies. Bedrooms are good sized with two full baths on the first floor and a half bath with the bedroom on the second floor. We had 5 adults in our group and never felt cramped. WiFi is good. Hosts are very friendly and helpful and very responsive to questions and give a good list of local attractions and restaurants to try. House is in an area with easy access to both Catania and Taormina, both about 35-45 minutes away by car. Would definitely stay here again if ever back in the area.

Great location and really nice terrace. Very well equipped apartment, from beach umbrellas to washing machine, dishwasher and kitchen gear. Hosts were really nice and responsive. Would stay again! Hope to come back soon.

Lele is an excellent hostess. The place matches the description perfectly. She has thoughtfully prepared a detailed instruction book with all the information we might need. Additionally, she provided us with plenty of helpful parking tips.

Beautiful place, close to great restaurants. Taormina is nice and peaceful in February. Anita was very responsive and helpful.

Antonio’s place is really beautiful and peaceful, and I do recommend it to everyone looking for a zen experience in the middle of the nature! A peaceful house in the middle of the nature!

Melania et sa famille ont été très réactifs par message et très accueillants ! C’est un endroit très paisible, un havre de paix en plein cœur de la nature, les photos ne seront jamais à la hauteur de la beauté du lieu ! Une vraie pépite. Je recommande vivement ! Merci pour votre accueil

Such a special place! We enjoyed the terrace with the breathtaking view, the calm, the nature, the fireplace and special atmosphere so much that we consider going there again. If you are looking for a calm sanctuary where to load up your energies, this is the place to go. Salvatore was always super helpful with super fast replies and we picked up some of his recommendations about what to do in Calabria. Really good place also for more people, even if we were only two.

Excellent accueil de Tiziana, le logement est parfait, très propre et fonctionnel. Plein de petites attentions venant de Tiziana, nous avons fait du jus d'orange frais, les enfants se sont régalés. Café très bon. Nous avons visité le Cap de Milazzo et fait une excursion sur Stromboli, l'emplacement du logement est parfait. Parking privé pour la voiture. Petit supermarché à 30 secondes à pied si besoin. Merci beaucoup

Très bon séjour. La maison est fonctionnelle, grande, et très agréable à vivre et à partager en famille. Belle vue mer. Piscine, barbecue. Grandes terrasses. Toutes les chambres équipées de salles de bain. C'était propre. On recommande !

Logement incroyable. Rien à redire, Marco est très acceuillant et aidant au moindre soucis. Plein d'activités possibles dans la maison (à l'extérieur +++).

Simply fantastic. This is one of those rare Airbnbs where you actually feel like a friend has let you stay in their house. I cannot recommend it enough.

We loved the house of Jaco, it had an amazing view and is super quiet. We made an phenomenal BBQ outside on the grill. We will come back for sure. Felt like home.

Nous avons séjourné pendant une semaine à 6 personnes dans la partie a l étage de la maison. L appartement ne correspond pas tout à fait aux photos puisqu une chambre a été ajoutée dans le salon … mais la pièce de vie reste très spacieuse. Il n y avait pas de volets ( et pas de rideaux opaques dans le salon) ce qui est dommage quand on dort dans le salon et que le soleil se lève a 6h … et surtout pour couper du soleil quand il y fait très chaud . La cuisine n était pas suffisamment équipée plutôt rustique Heureusement que Sonia s est montrée réactive à nos demandes. La Clim était indispensable mais n est pas assez performante pour rafraîchir les chambres. Je dirais que l appartement vaut le coup pour la terrasse et la vue sur Taormina et la tranquillité s il y a du monde au rdc ( cet appartement doit être plus adapté pour un long séjour) .les extérieurs sont vraiment magiques et très appréciables en période de canicule ils sont d ailleurs très bien entretenus .

Wir haben als Gruppe von Freunden hier einen 10-tägigen Urlaub verbracht. Schon bei der Ankunft waren wir überwältigt von der Schönheit von Anwesen und Umgebung: Im wunderschönen Zitronenhain gelegen mit Blick auf die Hänge des Ätna und auf‘s Meer. Besser geht‘s nicht! Langeweile kam nie auf, die Gegend bietet super viel! Ein Auto ist allerdings wichtig. Auch auf dem Grundstück gab‘s immer was zu tun: wunderschöner Pool, Tischtennisplatte, Kicker, Fußball oder in der tollen Küche kochen… und immer frische Zitronen. Maria Gulia und Angelo sind super freundlich und halfen uns oft mit Tipps und schnellen Antworten weiter. Die Villa ist eine absolute Empfehlung!!

The apartment is based a stone throw from the main area of Taormina and took a couple of minutes to walk to. We were greeted by Anastasia who was super helpful and informative. It would have been difficult to find the apartment for the first time without her help! The shared pool was clean but freezing (it was April so to be expected!) This was a fantastic base to explore Taormina and the wider area from.

Guilia's place is spectacular! It's better than the photos with gorgeous views of the sea, mountains, city and even Calabria in the distance. The grounds are immaculate with a huge private terrace for meals and drinks and a massive pool that feels like your own private resort. Giulia's family lives in the other units and were always friendly and helpful but not intrusive in the least. Even Papaya the dog knew when to leave us to ourselves lol! The interior is pristine and spacious. As many have pointed out the town center is about a 10-15 minute walk away. So you are very close to all the restaurants and shops but away from the tourist hordes. Taormina is hilly but most of the walk is relatively flat. Traffic is not a worry, we did not encounter much of it on our walks. Also, Italian drivers, although speedy, are careful and well aware of pedestrians. Giulia is a fantastic host, always quick to provide recommendations and respond to our questions. Wish we could have stayed forever!

This is a great place in the centre of Milazzo. Maria was very friendly and helpful on checkin. Everything was very clean, and there were toiletries and cleaning gear for the kitchen. The kitchen well equipped except for the absence of a few utensils, such as a knife for preparing food, but if you prefer eating out there are plenty of restaurants and take away places in easy walking distance.

Ein sehr schönes Haus mit einem paradiesischen Garten in ruhiger Lage am Ortsrand von Gaggi. Giovanni ist ein sehr netter Gastgeber und spricht auch gut Englisch. Die Küche ist einfach, aber zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Die Betten waren gut (das Thema Bettdecken in Italien ist eine Sache für sich, nur eine große Bettdecke für zwei, praktisch nur ein Laken mit Wolldecke darüber, ich werde es nie verstehen, aber das ist da überall so...) und der Pool natürlich auch. Die Terrasse im Obergeschoss bietet einen wundervollen Blick über die Umgebung und auf den Ätna. Nur die Hunde in der Umgebung waren in der Nacht leider sehr laut. Aber dafür kann Giovanni nichts.

I, my wife and our 10-11 month baby had a fantastic one month stay at Villa Britannia. The beautiful villa had everything we looked for: great location, a lovely garden (in which "The Snake" by DH Lawrence was written), a big kitchen (great for perfecting Pasta alla Norma), seaview and parking (the large garage could easily fit our quite long estate car). Louisa and her husband Marco are lovely people and provided service on a far higher level than most Airbnb-hosts. Any minor issues were quickly sorted out. Louisa would bring us wines to try and proactively let us know about events in town or traffic challenges, as well as giving great recommendations and help with any problem. We were provided with a baby cot, a baby bath, several (!) baby chairs and lots of toys. Could not ask for more. We really hope to be back one day!

Confortable stay, easy communication with the hosts and everything as expected, thanks!

We really enjoyed our stay at Melania’s place. She was so helpful and friendly. The house is beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The garden is amazing as it backs onto a large citrus grove where you can pick the fruit, which is delicious. There is an electrical substation just before you enter the property but it isn’t really noticeable inside. Giardini Naxos is ideal as a base for visiting this part of Sicily, particularly if you have a car.

Robert war immer sehr gut zu erreichen und er hat sich um alle kleinen Problemchen sofort gekümmert. Der Garten des Hauses mit dem Ätna-Blick ist einfach ein Traum und es ist gut gelegen für Ausflüge nach Catania, Taormina, in die Alcantara-Schlucht oder auf den Ätna. Alles war sauber und wir haben uns direkt wohlgefühlt. Leider ist die Umgebung sehr heruntergekommen und vieles steht leer. Eine schöne Strandpromenade oder einladende Restaurants am Meer findet man hier nicht - stattdessen sitzt man bereits in der Nebensaison an stark befahrenen Straßen. Aber das hat natürlich nichts mit dem Haus zu tun, welches wir nur empfehlen können.

Soggiorno piacevole, tranquilla e relax assicurati, vicino tante cose da vedere ospitalità di Silvana davvero da 10 e lode, ci siamo sentiti come a casa, sempre presente e mai invadente, ci ha fatto trovare in frigo acqua birra, e tutto l’occorrente per trascorrere il fine settimana, davvero ospitale, consiglio davvero questa esperienza a tutti, grazie ancora per tutto.

I recently had an amazing experience at Roberta's Airbnb. The house was easy to find, clean, with a beautiful pool, and the owners were incredibly kind. Thanks for all. I really appreciated the time there, it was one of the best airbnb that I booked. Moreover, the view on the Etna is stunning, and the place is so relaxing, with a nice beach at some meters away (accessible by foot). This Airbnb is a gem, and I recommend it for an unforgettable stay in front of the Etna.
