Villa vacation rentals in Gravina di Catania

Really well located and lost of space to spread out

This is the most beautiful villa: well maintained, wonderful hosts, fully stocked with most everything you would need. The location is very good for exploring this part of the island and the views of the sea on one side, and Etna on the other is really remarkable. The hot tub and pool are amazing and the space is very well organized with large rooms and plenty of common areas.

I rented Marco's place to celebrate my 30th birthday with my friends, and it was the best choice. The living room/game room offered good entertainment in the evening, and its location made it very easy for us to reach Mount Etna and go hiking in the mornings/afternoons. The place was spotless, and Marco was an incredibly responsive host and always willing to help. The only downside was the temperature, which was a bit colder than desired. The heating came on mostly when we weren't home and was set to 19°. The fire in the living room kept us warm enough in the evening, but more warmth there and in the rest of the house would have been appreciated. Overall, we had a very good experience and I would recommend its place to anyone wanting to explore Etna and have fun!

A beautiful villa with old-world charm yet modern feeling. Amazing views of both the ocean and Etna. Well maintained gardens and grounds, with a lovely pool and sitting area. Pino and Viviana were always quick to respond and helpful. Truly a special place

We spent 2 nights at NeroEtna with our daughter. The house has one of the best views at Etna and on our first night Etna surprised with volcanic spectacle. We enjoyed our stay very much. The place is farmhouse style and spacious with very much privacy. At our arrival the fireplace was already lighted! Nunzio is a friendly and welcoming host and adviced us on our trips. We regret not being able to stay longer!

Martina is a great host who hosted us very warmly. The house was clean and tidy, Martina was attentive to all our requests and was very available and efficient. The house is traditional and cozy, there is a lovely terrace with a great view. I would definitely recommend it. You just have to remember to have a car because the house is on the heights, or have the ability to climb steep enough stairs for about 10 minutes. However, the stairs lead directly to the city center.

Lovely place- calm environment. Recommendations from host were great- Super Pollo some of the best chicken we’ve had! Views from villa amazing…

We spent two nights at Tatiana and Giancarlo's place. The place has everything you need and Tatiana was incredibly helpful. We were also sent a brochure with helpful information about the place and what Tatiana could help with. The place is 5 to 10 minutes walking a lot of stairs up to the city center and the gondola of Mazzaro and the villa itself is sheltered from the noise of the city. There is also a great pool area on the property that you can use if desired. Everything was clean and the apartment appeared very exclusive in the furnishings and decor. There is good and sheltered parking at the property. We recommend the place and had a wonderful stay.

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.

This villa is not a modern hotel but a grand estate reminiscent of the aristocracy of Italy; private, but living within the culture of the surrounding area. The grounds are lush and gated with a very large swimming pool. A car is necessary to get to other cities and/or bus stops/train stations. The GPS on our personal phones was excellent and useful in traveling around Sicily. Our hosts, Francesco and Maria, were warm and genteel. They live on the premises next to the villa so access to their assistance and advice was always available via phone, AirBNB and What's App. The beds are antique and amazingly comfortable - a recommendation would be to have additional pillows available for those who may not be back sleepers. We had 7 women from our bookclub back home and it sleeps 13 so there is plenty of space for a larger group. We would stay at the villa again if we do go back to Sicily. We had a great time!!!!

This is the best place I could have selected for my families first visit to Europe! I wish I would have stayed longer as I didn’t realize how perfect the location and caliber of villa until we arrived. I would go back and recommend to all. Food, beauty, nightlife, architecture, shopping and the gorgeous sea! This place gave our family of 6 unforgettable memories, even seeing Mt.Etna erupt from the roof top!

A great home away from home for the Christmas Holiday. The kitchen was amazing and allowed for us to make all our traditional Christmas dishes. Furthermore, the living room was cozy. The couch was perfect and allowed multiple people to curl up and watch Christmas movies. Additionally, the gaming room provided much needed space for board games, karaoke, puzzles, and reading. The house was immaculate, and our host was absolutely wonderful. We showed up late the first evening and our host made traditional Sicilian delicacies for us to eat. The arancini were delicious. I would 100% come back, especially in the summer so I can enjoy their beautiful pool. 100% recommend.

Everything was perfect. Emanuele is very responsive and accommodating. The villa is amazing, great location, great view, very well equipped (swimming pool, barbecue, parking space etc.). We were a group of 14 and had a great time. I highly recommend it!

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!!

Amazing villa that matched perfectly the expected when we booked. Excellent service from Danilo & his wife from check in to check out, very helpful and always available. They’ve met all our requirements, that as we were travelling with kids were very important for us. Definitely an unbelievable stay in a stunning premises and beautiful place. Highly recommended and we are very much looking forward to come back. We enjoyed every moment of our trip. Thank you very much for that!

We had a wonderful stay at this awesome house. The view was amazing! The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen will equipped. It was fun cooking Sicilian food there. We also enjoyed playing with all the cats that came by regularly. That was so cute. Although we had missed the point in the description of the property that there was a second apartment below and we had to share the pool and garden area it was not much of an issue once we got it. And the other guests were nice too. The cold pool was really nice to swim in and refreshing. The sunbeds on both levels were super comfortable abs a pleasure to use. Having the parking inside the compound was also really practical. Giuliana was a fantastic host. She always helped is immediately with everything.

Lovely Airbnb in a private compound. Walkable to the little village of Santa Tecla and to a Hotel with a nice Lido. Paolo was a great host and very responsive throughout the stay.

The house is simply beautiful with great views of the sea and the coast to Taormina and the toe of the mainland. The sunrises are fabulous. The garden is beautifully landscaped and we were also very pleased with the hammock and table tennis table. The lava stone and wood are a great combination outside and inside. There are very comfortable seats and beds as well as insect screens on doors and windows. The Etna Park, Taormina and Catania are easily accessible. Andrea is a great, very attentive and friendly host who gave us a lot of good tips.

The house located in a truly peaceful and relaxing place, with lemon trees and olive trees around; the house is very beautiful and lovely, with lovely flowers around the garden, and smell really good. Vanessa and her family are very kind and nice, provided us everything we need. It's easy to drive to so many nice restaurants nearby, and very close to several towns and cities. We had a wonderful week here!

Beautiful stay in Aci Catena. The space comfortably accommodated all four of us and the beds were one of the most comfortable of our whole trip. The outdoor area was amazing with the pool surrounded by many olive, lemon and peach trees. Daria was very willing to help with every question we had and made many recommendations throughout our stay. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quaint stay, yet so close to everything.

The house was perfect for our visit to the Catania area. All 3 bedrooms were clean, air conditioned, and spacious with private baths. The pictures in the listing show exactly what you can expect. The outside patio and porch areas are beautiful and great for enjoying a morning coffee and evening beverage. Marco worked with us to accommodate an early check-in. He promptly responded to all of our requests and concerns. The house is gated so privacy and security was not a concern.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Ambra. As others have mentioned in previous reviews, the place looks better than in the pictures. It was clean and had a very nice outdoor area with a pool, sunbeds, dining area, grill and table tennis. We had to check in very late, but that was no problem which was very nice. We would also like to recommend the taxi driver Carmelo and his son Luca, recommended by the host of the villa (his card is in the villa). Carmelo was like our private guide every time we needed to go somewhere and told us a lot about the history of Naxos, Taormina and Castelmola. On the final day he took us to Siracusa for a day trip, which we highly recommend!
