Anniversary Trip
We had a great time with friends who were also celebrating an anniversary. The villa is beautiful and well maintained a historical home that has been fully renovated. Very spacious and stunning, tastefully decorated, great kitchen. The garden was perfect for eating outdoors and the pool was stunning. The views from the massive outdoor balcony of Etna were breathtaking. Daniela was a responsive host. Proximity to Taormina, Catania , Etna and wineries were perfect.

Where do we start? The villa is stunning, really clean and well equipped. The outdoor area and pool is amazing and the views of Etna were fantastic. Even better than the photos! Daniella and her husband were fantastic hosts. They live on site so check-in was really swift and punctual, they cleaned the pool early every morning, changed towels half way through our holiday and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us. We were really impressed and would highly recommend.

The house is beautifully appointed, well maintained, and has everything needed for a relaxing stay. Spacious inside, with a lovely pool area. Multiple outside seating and lounging areas with a fantastic view of Etna. Daniela is a responsive host and available if needed without being intrusive. A very high end holiday rental.

Good choice
A most interesting historic property that has was previously used for wine manufacture. The conversion to a large and well resourced holiday home has left insights into its past use. We particularly appreciated the space including the many seating areas outdoors and the wonderful pool. Danielle the owner is available for any queries and generously provided toiletries and plenty of towels as well as a welcome pack. A car is essential and it should be noted that there are 21 stairs which may be difficult for some. Highly recommended

Dimora Cariga is a grand old house
Dimora Cariga is a grand old house that has been renovated by our hosts to provide excellent, secure accommodation. There is so much space both inside and out. Outside, the pool was a nice size and well used. It was also possible to soak up the sun or take to the shade outside. We never grew tired of the view of Etna, but if you did there was also a sea view from the balcony. Indoors, it was spotlessly clean, well-equipped with everything we needed. The lounge areas allowed comfortable relaxation with the cellar also offering a cooler option. It was great to have an ample supply of towels as well as laundry facilities. Our host, who were very welcoming, live next door and are there if needed, but also very discreet.

Charming and spacious house with amazing pool
We had a lovely stay at Dimora Cariga. The owners (who live next door) were very kind and helpful. The house was beautifully renovated, with some lovely original features, and very large for four of us - plenty of seating,and eating, areas. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and the beds were comfortable. The pool was a big hit with our kids especially - it's beautifully situated in the back garden with plenty of outdoor seating. It's a salt-water pool which is much nicer than a chlorinated one. It was a little bracing getting into the pool at first in mid-October but even at that time of year, it was really pleasant to swim in once you got in! The house is on the edge of a town with multiple supermarkets and restaurants.

Beautiful property but hot!
This property was immaculate. It was absolutely beautiful and well stocked. However, only the bedrooms have air conditioning and they are on the top floor of the home. If you are visiting during warmer months, it will be hot in this house. We were there the first week of September and it was very uncomfortable in the main living spaces. Also, the only shower is very, very small and is downstairs. The upstairs bathroom has a bathtub. The owners reside in a home that is attached to the house. They keep to themselves though and are very help when needed. This home is filled with charm and would be a wonderful place to stay during the milder months.
