Situat la marginea Parcului Regional Muntele Etna, Antico Borgo Petralia este de fapt un străvechi cătun, deschis pentru public în anul 2011. Oferă o curte frumoasă, grădină şi piscină.
„Everything about the Antico Borgo was fantastic!! The property itself is a former farm that was converted into a lovely, high-end Inn. We stayed here 2 nights with another couple. It is ideally situated for Mount Etna touring.
We had a fabulous room with a huge balcony overlooking the valley to the sea. It could not have been better. The property itself is quite expansive, with lovely common areas, gardens, a pool and lots of places to sit out and enjoy the weather and the fine views. Everything is beautifully maintained and landscaped.
The best feature of the property is the Petralia family who own and operate Antico Borgo. Sara, who speaks perfect English, operates the front desk and is responsible for guest services. She is a delightful young lady who took wonderful care of our party during our stay -- arranging a guided tour of Mt. Aetna, offering us afternoon coffee and drinks and tending to us at breakfast and dinner.
Speaking of food, the dining at Antico Borgo is fabulous. The kitchen is run by Sara's mom. She provides freshly baked cakes, pastries and breads for the breakfasts. Anything else you can imagine is on offer, from freshly squeezed blood orange juice to eggs and bacon. We did not go away hungry from the breakfast, which was served al fresco overlooking the beautiful views. Dinner is also available at the property. The menu varies every day and you can pick and choose what you would like at breakfast. We ate at the property both nights and were not disappointed -- multi course traditional Italian meals that included fresh, homemade pastas, wonderful meat courses and an anti pasta tray that you would kill for. The farm to table meal is prepared my Mama and Mr. Petralia is in attendance during dinner "supervising" the entire process.
Bottom line. Antico Borgo was a charming, wonderful experience, and a real value. It was the highlight of our 3 week trip through Sicily and I would recommend it without hesitation.”
