Family-friendly vacation rentals in Sicily

A very welcoming person. Nice place

Wow! This was one of the best outfitted, beautiful properties we have ever stayed at. Dortea was a fantastic, responsive and helpful host. We were just in Amalphi and this location rivals the Italian riviera with wonderful views and Taromina just on it's doorstep. It was easy to walk to Isolabella and the bus and cable car were convenient for travelling to Taromina. The hot tub this time of year was wonderful. Thank you Dortea for the wonderful orientation that allowed us to make the most of our time in this beautiful part of Sicily.

Beautiful apartment located in a characteristic village. Quiet area and great starting point for visiting the surrounding area. Host available and courteous, always ready to provide us with directions and suggestions regarding our needs. Recommended!

We had a great week as a family in Sicily. Zuzana and Alessandro are great hosts. Welcoming, kind, and always ready to give us good tips for visits. The apartment is really very well located, clean, well-equipped and the garden is beautiful. Anyway, we recommend it!

Lovely apartment with good cooling. Laura is a great host. Recommended!

Wonderful hidden gem on the North Coast of Sicily! From booking to checkout, everything was brilliant. Marco kept in contact with us in the run up to our stay and when we arrived in Sicily we hired a car and drove to Sant'Ambrogio. The village is beautiful, with a wonderful square that overlooks the sea. It is a picture perfect Sicilian village. We visited in April and only one restaurant was open (2 more open from May onwards) and we had some great lunches and meals there and amazing local wine. I would highly recommend having a car if you stay here. The Villa is stunning and the rooms are big, very well decorated and good beds. The kitchen and lounge overlook the sea and the outside areas are great to catch the sun and relax, with stunning views. Great pool and outside space. Only thing to note is the pool isn't heated so we were not able to use it in April due to it being too cold. I imagine its great from June onwards.

Hey Steven, Please copy and paste the following review for Alberto. I promised him and I still need him to set up a zoom interview for Courtney. Great trip!!! The villa was spacious and comfortable. It is situated high on a mountain for a spectacular million dollar view. You see the hilly town of Mascali and the beautiful ocean. The pool and hot tub were a great bonus. I rent Airbnb’s all the time and never had a host like Alberto. I now have a new appreciation for the term “super host”. Alberto was like a friendly concierge. He set us up with everything we needed from car rental to airport transfers and excursions, to a great in-home massage therapist, and even showed us how to make our own pizza in the outdoor pizza oven at the villa. Thank you Alberto for making our trip complete. We highly recommend Villa Bellavista Etna and Alberto. While staying there I recommend a trip to Siracusa and to Mount Etna.

Excellent place to stay. Sebastiano was excellent host, reacting very quickly on any question. Beautiful small beach Very close, apartment very comfortable and well equiped. Very good position to explore south east “corner” of Sicily.

Great place! Convenient to all the main attractions. The host was very helpful in organizing local adventures!

Fiorella warmly greeted us and showed us the space. The space itself was incredible - 3 private terraces! In a great location in downtown Palermo. It is a charming old building which means heat only in bed rooms and some quirky electrical things which was not a problem for us at all. We hope to come again!!!

The place was great and very lovingly decorated. The kitchen, or the whole apartment, was superbly equipped. (Kitchen: dishes, spices..., of course the existing washing machine was also great) Roberta is a very lovable person, and even invited us to a typical Italian dish in a restaurant together with her family. We felt very comfortable all around! 5 stars!⭐️ The car could be parked easily on the surrounding street. 5-minute walk to the beach. Bus line 806 could take you to Palermo. If we come back to Mondello, we'll go back to Roberta.😊

We enjoyed the apartment and its location very much, situated in the old town within easy walking distance of the beach, many restaurants and little shops. The apartment was very comfortable and matched the description. Caterina also gave us a great recommendation for e-bike hire, which we did and enjoyed a lot, especially following the gps guide and taking a different route than we otherwise might have. Thanks for a wonderful time in Castellammare del Golfo!

Leonardo is a perfect host, he took care of everything, took care of everything, took us from the port and took us back to the departure. We stayed in a great place, you can get anywhere with the bike that lent us the house . The kitchen contains all the necessary basic equipment, ideal mattresses for sleeping and sleeping in great, large terrace overlooking the castle Thanks to the affordable price, you will not find anything better on the island, see you next time.

Lovely clean apartment in the historical centre of beautiful Noto. A roof terrace to enjoy the sunshine and relax and two comfortable bedrooms. Kitchen and dining area also perfect. TV's in the bedrooms, not the lounge area. Noto is a great base location to visit the surrounding area. Will definitely be back, I would recommend this apartment and Giuseppe is a good host!

Very nice and great location.

Beautiful location, apartment with sea and mountain view. Very comfortable bed. Car can be parked at the door. A small and charming town. The perfect place to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city and a good starting point. I would come back:)

Eduardo has been one of the kindest hosts we have met so far. He was there when we arrived and took his time to walk us through the home and give some recommendations. He was very kind to our 4 year old son and even gave him some toys to play with. The house itself was very clean, spacious and with a large bathroom. Kitchen was small, but workable. The patio was very nice as well, with acces to a clean pool. Location wise it was really close to a supermarket and the valley of the tempels was around the corner as well. All in all a great place to stay and visit the many sights this beautiful island has to offer.

Breathtaking view, calm countryside and yet right in the middle of all the places you’d want to see in north-east Sicily! 🤍 (e.g. 30 mins by car to Taormina, 30 mins to Alcantara, 50 mins to Etna-South) We got to spend five nights in Andreas lovely lava stone cottage and wished we had booked more :) The cottage is quite up the hill but definitely worth the ride. We had everything we need and more. Andrea is a wonderful host and provided us with great insider tips about the area. 10/10 would book again (but definitely prepare better against mosquitoes)

We really enjoyed our stay. Perfect for a family of 4. We enjoyed the view and the swimming pool. Giuseppe was very helpful and made local recommendations. Especially the bakery, ice cream shop and restaurant nearby we were happy with (S.Nicola), but also a lovely trip to Cefalú - where the restaurant A Paranza made delicious pizzas. Giuseppe also recommended good restaurants in Palermo. We would definitely recommend the place to others and would love to come back.

Fantastic location at the foot of Mount Etna, with beautiful views over the surrounding area. The house has all the comforts and was delivered clean. Michela is a very friendly host and communicated quickly. An absolute no-brainer in terms of value for money.

The castle in Mascalucia is absolutely beautiful, very comfortable, and close to a bus stop that takes you straight to Via Etna in the heart of Catania. Claudia is an amazing host and was very responsive and friendly, and kept up to date with us for our check in. We hope to be able to return to Sicily and stay here again in the future!

This is a luxury gem hidden away in a tranquil location. The only minus off season was that most restaurants <30 minutes away were closed (October) otherwise this place is magic, clean, newly refurbished, has all necessary amenities, incredibly private and has excellent hosts and goat farmer neighbors ;)

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!

The cooking class introduced by Antonio was very good. I highly recommend it to others. The house was beautiful. The room feels a bit old. It was still cold, so I had to keep the heater on, but it got better since I left it on all day. Cooking utensils were also well stocked. However, at first, there was no shampoo in the bathroom and only one toilet paper, but as soon as I requested it, he brought it right away. I had a good time during my stay, and I really liked the rural environment with cats, dogs, and horses.
