Family-friendly vacation rentals in Tonnarella

Perfect location right near the entrance for the old town

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!

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.

Our family of four (including a 2.5 year old and an infant) was very fortunate to stay at Dario’s over Christmas and New Year’s. The location was excellent - in the heart of Cefalu, just a few blocks from the Duomo, the beach, and the bottom of La Rocco. It was fun to watch the holiday festivities just below our balcony. The “spa” exceeded expectations and the kitchen was exceptionally well-equipped. Dario was friendly, attentive, and had great restaurant recommendations. We would love to return one day.

beautiful bright apartment, we found everything clean and tidy, impeccable. to the host, rating 10, kind, friendly, helpful, nice. I absolutely recommend spending the holidays here. congratulations indeed!!

Brilliant location in the heart of the old city. Beautiful space. We loved the terrace, especially. If you want a vibrant, spacious, attractive place then book this!

Our stay was very pleasant, everything was fine. However, it's important to note that each villa contains a total of three apartments, which might matter for those looking for more privacy.

Salvo has a great host, providing all necessary information and even offering us drive to the local train station, flexible with check in since we had a early flight. In general he was great as a host, only thing was location since you need 30 minutes walk to commute to the local train station so I wouldn’t recommend it if you do not have a car. Thank you Salvo and see you again!

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)

What a great experience - thanks so much!

We stayed for a week at 6 people on the upstairs part of the house. The apartment does not fully match the photos since a bedroom has been added to the living room … but the living room remains very spacious. There were no shutters ( and no opaque curtains in the living room) which is a shame when you sleep in the living room and the sun rises at 6 a.m. ... and especially to cut off the sun when it's very hot . The kitchen was not sufficiently equipped rather rustic Thankfully Sonia was responsive to our requests. The A/C was essential but not good enough to refresh the rooms. I would say that the apartment is worth it for the terrace and the view of Taormina and the tranquility if there are people on the ground floor ( this apartment must be more suitable for a long stay). The exteriors are really magical and very enjoyable during the heatwave they are also very well maintained .

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.

Great house with fantastic view! Would definitely come back.

I really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the host’s kindness in getting us settled. The location was peaceful and private, and walking on the private beach at night was serene. We loved the gas stovetop for last‑minute meals and the shower’s light and radio. The indoor space was a bit tight, but the patio and outdoor areas made up for it. A few things caught us off guard: the pool is seasonal, chairs shown on the beach weren’t there, and some utensils were a bit dirty. We also found ants on the table, which upset my girlfriend, and the TVs were smaller than expected. The biggest concern was the road to the beach—the potholes made us nervous about driving. Overall, it’s a lovely spot. With a few clarifications and minor updates, it could be an even more fantastic getaway. Thank you for hosting us!

This was a beautiful place to stay in a beautiful city. The unit was set back from the road and was so picturesque. There was so much space for our two families. We could not have asked for a better place!

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 location is incredible and only a 5 minute walk to the Main Street and the views from the terraces are stunning. Laura was also super helpful and able to give us restaurant recommendations and make reservations. Also have access to a shared pool/hot tub weather permitting as well as a washer. Only thing that could make be improved is the shower as it’s pretty small, but overall would love to stay here again and would strongly recommend for anyone traveling on the Sicilian coast!

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.

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 ;)

Thank you Claudia, the check-in and check-out instructions were very simple and flexible. The apartment was very quiet, with a nice view, and a pleasant environment among lemon trees and cycas! The apartment is very well equipped and we did not lack anything, it was a very good choice for our family with our last 2 children. The pool was a little cool this season, but we still bathed in. I imagine it must be exceptional the summer of returning from a hike on Etna over a barbecue! We enjoyed the functionality of the apartment, having breakfast in the sun on the terrace facing the sea, the tranquility of the place and the view of Etna from the pool. Thank you very much

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!
