The property is very beautiful and the views of the sea from the slope of the Etna are spectacular. Very quiet, comfortable accommodations, very nice swimming pool. The location is excellent, a short drive to the sea and also close to Taormina and Catania, which was very convenient. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much. I would love to go back for a longer stay.

Exceptional facility and staff

We stayed here for two days while exploring the area including Mt. Etna and Taormina, and wished that our travels would have allowed us to stay longer to just relax at Tenuta Santa Tecla. Our room (a large outer room and a large bedroom) was very comfortable and clean, the grounds of this agritourismo are lovely, and after travelling a lot it was great to just sit and look out to land and sea. Also, the breakfast, which we paid extra for, was quite good. Most importantly, and the best part of staying here was meeting Giussi, the manager, who was exceptionally friendly and helpful (e.g. restaurant reservations, laundromat, travel directions, etc.), probably the best we have ever had in our extensive travelling. And other staff we met were also very friendly and helpful.

The property is strategically located between the sea and the mountain , is well kept and very relaxing,The personnel is available and knowledgeable , making you feel home thanks to the Sicilian hospitality. We enjoy walking and picking oranges from the orchard. The rooms are impeccable clean, and the breakfast is freshly made and abundant. We highly recommend the Tenuta Santa Tecla.

Posto splendido

La tenuta in cui è inserito l’agriturismo è splendida e le struttura è nuova e molto bella, specialmente l’area piscina. La presenza di molti bambini rende la situazione meno tranquilla di quello che si potrebbe sperare Migliorabile la copertura Wi-Fi negli appartamenti, quasi assente Non facilissimo raggiungere il posto con il navigatore, specialmente giungendo da nord (noi siamo stati portati fuori strada)
