Rilasso totale

La posizione dove si trova era facile per noi a trovare e anche per viaggiare da altri posti. La famiglia e anche il cane hanno avuto una bella vacanza. L etna, Taormina e i negozi tutti vicini e anche le ristoranti. Grazie mille Luigi.

Schönes Ferienhaus mit Blick auf den Ätna

Bei der Ankunft wurden wir freundlich von Luigi begrüßt. Er stellte uns einen großen Kaffeevorrat zur Verfügung, der für die ganze Woche reichte. Auch Wasserflaschen warteten im Kühlschrank auf uns und um Salz, Pfeffer, Zucker und Tee brauchten wir uns nicht zu kümmern. Das Haus ist geräumig und sauber und hat alles, was man braucht, sogar ein Klavier. Ein paar Besteckteile mehr wären nicht schlecht, aber dafür gibt es reichlich Geschirr. Die Heizung könnte noch etwas mehr Temperatur bringen, vor allem nachts war es recht frisch im Haus und man musste sich noch Wolldecken mit ins Bett nehmen (von denen allerdings mehr als genug vorhanden waren). Während unserer Urlaubswoche erkundigte sich Luigi per Whatsapp nach unserem Wohlbefinden und meldete sich auch nach einem nächtlichen Erdbeben. So konnten wir uns im EtnaFamilyHouse wohlfühlen, auch wenn das Wetter nicht auf unserer Seite war.

Sehr großzügige Wohnung mit freundlichem Vermieter

Die Ankunft um 2 Uhr morgens war kein Problem - Luigi hat uns erwartet und uns mit einigen Lebensmittel ausgestattet. Das Haus ist sehr groß und liegt sehr ruhig. In der Wohnung befindet sich alles was man so braucht und den Blick auf den Etna gibt es dazu :-). Wir waren sehr zufrieden.

mooi huis en erg ruim

We hebben ons goed vermaakt , en vonden het huis mooi en erg ruim. We miste wat ligbedjes in de tuin en ik denk dat een airco ook wel lekker was geweest. Mijn kinderen miste een zwembad maar alles was voor de rest prima. De eigenaar was erg aardig en had goede tips over restaurants en over de stranden.

Séjour parfait

Nous avons passé 3 semaines parfaites dans cette maison très paisible avec tout le confort nécessaire à un bon séjour. Le rapport qualité prix est au top et notre hôte Luigi est adorable, disponible, arrangeant et très aimable. La maison est idéale pour passer un séjour reposant en famille et/ou amis et également pour tout ce qui est visite car plutôt bien située.

Sehr schönes stilvolles Haus von sehr nettem Vermieter

Stilvolles und sehr gut eingerichtetes Haus in ruhiger Lage am Fuß des Ätna. Der Gastgeber Luigi ist sehr nett und gastfreundlich. Kaffee, Brot und Croissants sowie Wasser standen zum Empfang bereit. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können das Haus sehr empfehlen.

grande maison, bien situé pour profiter de l'ETNA et de la cote est sicilienne

Logement conforme à la description et aux photos, situé dans un quartier résidentiel paisible. Très Bon accueil du propriétaire qui avait prévu ce qu'il fallait pour notre déjeuner le lendemain matin. Bonne literie. Le plus du logement est sa proximité avec l'Etna, qu'on peut voir depuis la salle à manger.
