Vacation home rentals in Messina

We were two Canadian couples staying for 5 nights (after visiting Milano/Genova), with a car that we rented at Catania airport. We arrivred at 9PM but our host Nando was communicating us and received us in person. Upon arrival, fridge had some complimentary sandwiches, juice drinks and snacks, and a delicious homemade cake. Lovely place, peaceful, spacious, additional to detail, comes as advertised. Beautiful 180 degree view, when sitting outside by the pool, and even from main salon/kitchen. Loved the bedrooms and in particular the high quality mattresses and sheets. Made good use of the washing machine as we had a lot of laundry from our first week in Italy. Nando was very thoughful and proactive in checking in on us and suggesting places to visit and eat at. Good location, about a 10-15 minute drive to Taormina parking and a short drive to get on highway to visit Mount Etna or Syracuse/Ortigia. We had a wonderful stay in Sicily, thank you Nando!

Roberta's father welcomed us warmly and did not leave language barriers to hindrance to the chat. Trecastagni is a charming place and the apartment is extremely well located. The photos in the listing do not capture how nice the view from the roof terrace actually is. From it we got many idyllic breakfasts and VIP places to a volcanic eruption. We regret that we went from there.

This was a wonderful stay. Aurora was very attentive. She greeted us, said goodbye when we left and communicated in between. And the apartment was fully equipped, immaculately clean and perfect for us.

beautifyl place up on the slopes of the etna, vieuw of the whole Island. nice garden with fresh fruits and a copy house with everything tou need. the owners were very flexible and helpfunctie with everithing and had great recommendarions about the Area. thnx for having us !

We spent a short vacation with our children and thanks to Francesca and her advice we had a great time. The house is really very nice and easily accessible. One thing we appreciated was that it also had private parking. Thanks for everything to Francesca☺️

I stay at Giuseppe's very quiet and with every comfort, my favorite part is the terrace where you can have lunch and dinner with a view of much of the country

Location was great! It was super clean!

We had an outstanding experience for our family of eight! The accommodations were excellent and reflected the description and pictures. Giovanni and Elena were wonderful hosts and were responsive from the initial arrangements to our final departure. We would highly recommend this villa.

When you opened the doors you looked out on the sea! It was a really nice place in a beautiful location. If you are wanting to visit Catania and Taormina this a great place between each of those cities. . It was also close to Mt. Etna. The host was also very helpful and responded right away to any need or request that we had.

Very pleasant stay, even though weather was not good, we enjoyed it very much. Antonio helped us solve all of our issues, was always here to help! We recommend very much!!

This place was stunning. The view from the roof top jacuzzi was amazing. Norma meet us to check in she was so helpful and kind. This was a great find. Right in the middle of shopping and restaurant’s.

A cosy, homely apartment with stunning views from the balcony. The apartment was well stocked with bathroom products, washing equipment, condiments and an incredible selection of breakfast goodies. Alessandra was a helpful and responsive host who was there if and when we needed her. A beautiful apartment in a truly stunning part of Sicily. Would highly recommend.

We have stayed here for Christmas with our two little kids. We had a great time, the terrace and the view is wonderful, the small appartment nicely decorated, and Klaudia was very helpful and proactive in making sure we have all the information needed. The communication with her was just perfect. We went to Taormina for a nice day, also Letojanni is actually our highlight - not much there, but we had a lovely day on the beach and had an ice cream in this small and cozy town.

The stay was wonderful. The place is surrounded by greenery and is very quiet, not to mention the breathtaking view! The archaeological area and the sanctuary can be easily reached on foot in a few minutes. A few kilometers away by car, you can reach beautiful beaches. Emanuela was really kind and helpful, she gave me a lot of advice on what to do in the area. Surely the property will be my point of reference for when I return to Tindari!

A great space and an even more amazing host - probably the nicest I've ever met on Airbnb. The welcome was especially great - with wine and Sicilian ice cream and pastry specialties, but we found the two water bottles in the fridge to be particularly attentive, because after a long journey this gesture is particularly accommodating. Then I got a list of restaurant recommendations. The hostess was otherwise very easily accessible and also immediately on the spot if anything was (for example, we had locked ourselves out once;) ). We felt very comfortable at the property. Although you share the pool area (the other rooms in the house), everyone had their own private area - so you hardly noticed. It was very quiet and idyllic, although it is on the main road - like a small hidden oasis. It was all very nice and we were able to relax very well here. Definitely highly recommended.

Cristina is a fabulous host that met us at the apartment at check in. The apartment had everything we required for a great stay, and if we did need something (knife, chopping board) Cristina purchased and delivered it promptly. We cooked most evenings and there are great shops selling all we needed to do so within walking distance. A beautiful beach is a stones throw from the apartment. There is a bus stop across the road to take you to Taormina and the train station, but forget the timetable, these buses run a rather erratic timetable all of their own. The apartment was spotless and roomy enough for a family of three. Would definitely recommend.

Functional and cool house, great location. So much tranquility and excellent hospitality of the host. I plan to repeat the stay maybe extending a little to transform the vacation into what was once called the vacation.

I found this place great. Recently renovated house with modern finishes, cozy, very clean and quiet. It had everything you need, clean sheets, towels, bathroom kits, equipped kitchen and coffee machine with pods, we also found everything you need to have breakfast included. The kitchen is super equipped and in the bedroom there is a TV and also an air conditioner/heat pump that we used, the only downside is that since it was cold, the hot air remained in the bedroom and did not go to the other rooms but otherwise everything was really great. Antonio was really kind and helpful both at check-in and check-out super flexible, he gave us directions and tips on where to dine or have lunch in the area. We really felt right at home. I recommend it

Great hosts with wonderful accommodation in stunning surroundings - definitely recommended!!! We had an incredibly beautiful time: relaxed in the house, discovered new places every day and experienced unforgettable moments on the recommendation of the hosts. If you are looking for Sicily live with the feeling of being at home, you have come to the right place. We will be happy to come back! Thanks EtnAroundYou!!!

Excellent accommodation! Everything was clean and well maintained, easy to communicate with Fabio. Despite the slow Wi-Fi that was giving headaches when we were watching a movie, it was brilliant place to stay with big parking lot!

A true taste of Italian hospitality found in Villa Franca, by your host, Giuseppe. This villa is accurately described as pictured with true beauty, spacious areas and cleanliness. Giuseppe's villa is a great find in Reggio Calabria, Italy. Giuseppe's kind gestures in sharing complementary beverages and breakfast treats only reinforce the pride in his Italian culture. An English to Italian translator is most helpful. You will need transportation, if you truly want to see southern Italy. Villa Franca is so welcoming we hope to return again. Thank you for your kindness, James and Sons

We had a great stay at Francesco's place. The apartment itself was excellent. He has thought of everything that you could possibly need and it was spotless too. The views of Etna from the lounge make the place even more special. The outside pool area was lovely with a relaxation space right next to it. The parking spaces were great to have too. Francesco was an excellent host - he provided some great recommendations of places to eat and things to do. He went above and beyond what was necessary. In terms of location, you can walk out of the front door to shops, restaurants etc. From here, it is easy to access Taormina, Catania, Etna and beyond. If you are thinking about staying here, do it!
