The view was spectacular and the property was quite lovely. The staff, or rather the family that run the property are also very charming. We will 100% come back.
Located 558 feet from the rocky beach of Cannizzaro, Il Giardino Dei Limoni offers a terrace and a garden. This bed and breakfast features simple rooms with free Wi-Fi.

The room was comfortable and had all we needed. The garden was very cute and the breakfast area was nicely decorated. Communication with host was easy and efficient. He suggested a restaurant to have sea food which was excellent. We overall enjoyed our stay very much. Also, very fast internet
La Castellese enjoys a location in Aci Castello, 29 miles from Isola Bella and 30 miles from Taormina Cable Car – Upper Station.

The size of the room and bathroom were perfect. The bed was very comfortable. The balcony was so relaxing and nice to sit on. A one minute walk to the water and to a few delicious restaurants. Even though it is part of someone’s home I felt very comfortable and welcome. My host was also a huge help in figuring out transportation.
Set in the historic center of Aci Castello, 0.6 mi from Acitrezza, Borgo Marinaro features a terrace fitted with tables, chairs and parasols. The beach is 656 feet away.
Providing a garden, Casa Scogliera provides accommodations in Aci Castello. This apartment offers free private parking, a 24-hour front desk, and free Wifi. Staff on site can arrange a shuttle...

Locals were rude and often very Arrogant and attempted to overcharge far too many times. They hope you won’t challenge them about it. My advice is , Ask how much before paying and Check your receipts and bills .
The town is scruffy and dirty. The vast amounts of discarded Rubbish on the streets is difficult to ignore. Definitely would not return.
Positive note : The sea view and the sunset is beautiful.

Actually Frasteva is located in the town of Valverde not in...
Actually Frasteva is located in the town of Valverde not in Aci Castello, which is a short drive awa. It is more inland than Aci Castello and it is convenient to all of the towns that make up "Paesi Etnei", that is, the little towns on the southeastern slope of Mount Etna, which are suburbs of Catania. It is a great jumping off point for Taormina, Catania and Siracusa and is a twenty-five minute ride to the airport, depending on traffic.
What makes this newly renovated and picturesque venue a perfect stay are the wonderful accomodations and the personal and cheery attention to detail given to all that stay there by its host, Stefania. She is simply an absolute pleasure to interact with. I am going there the next time I return to the Catania area and I assure anyone who stays there that they will not be disappointed.

Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT!
Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT! It had literally a derelict entrance, with wires dangling from the ceiling, parts of which appeared to be about to give in; filthy place (I was expecting to see rats it was that bad!)....It is NOT close to the beach (although the place had a seaview); I would certainly NOT recommend to anybody! Will most certainly not book again! If I were to rate it honestly I would give a 2/10 and the 2 is only for the seaview!

Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea.
Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea. So fish is staple. It is a bit laid back . Think basic and you will love it.
It is such a shame that the towns coming down to Aci Castello (note that this town is close to sea level) have a lot of garbage scattered around and gives you a very different vibe of this beautiful basic fishing village ..

Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore...
Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore the area - the wonderful coastline up to Taormina, the great sights while trekking around Etna, and breathtaking villages like Castiglione di Sicilia.
Aci Castello is smaller and quieter than its walk-to, more touristy neighbour Aci Trezzo, and 'The Sea You Can Feel' is a unique place to stay, perched high above the rocky coastline. There are stunning 360 degree views from the spacious roof terrace, a perfect place to indulge in a sundowner or two, whilst the 'lookout' below has 3 walls of windows for relaxing and taking in the amazing location!
The owners, Giuseppe and Antonella are passionate about Sicily and gave us loads of useful advice.
The location of the apartment is perfect, only 5 minutes from the sea, a grocery store, and great restaurants! The host was so kind, and nice, when we arrived she welcomed us with delicious sweets! The apartment is really clean and comfortable, the pillows are amazing to sleep on! The balconies were a blessing and the view was great, on the roof the terrace is easily accessible and a great place to relax, or sunbathe! It was a pleasure to stay here, and if we come back to Sicily we will definitely stay here again!
La Terrazza was delightful. Federico and his mom are wonderful, caring hosts. The B&B is spotlessly clean and modern, and has just four rooms, so it's very quiet and intimate. View from the terrace is spectacular, and we could easily walk into Aci Castello or Aci Trezza from its location. Our room was comfortable, and the bathroom was larger and better-appointed than most in Sicily. There is secure parking inside the house's gated entrance--a real bonus.
Best B & B ever. The place has simple rooms with a great outdoor area overlooking some city and the sea beyond. The owner and breakfast chef makes it a special place - he is the happiest, friendliest host we have ever had. He really enjoys his guests and attends to their needs. It is quite nice to be out of Catania in a suburb. You will want a car to explore the area anyhow. It is clean and like coming to visit your Uncle. He knows so much about Sicily!
The area is very charming and the view from the garden is exceptional. The bed is confortable and even the sofa bed in the living is pretty confortable and easy to open and close. The host are nice people, sent us some recommendations for dinning and shopping and pretty reactive when needed.
The small town and beach of Aci Castello are pretty close but of course having a car is highly recommended to move around since this house is in the countryside.
Great location to rocky beach and sea sports facilities and restaurants. Two apartments sharing main entrance with large roof top terrace with sea view. Each apartment has a long balcony private. Newly renovated, fully equipped kitchen, new fridge and appliances, soft towels and lovely shower and bathroom. Public parking near restaurants available, may get tricky during dinner time so ask host for free private parking address.
The hosts were really nice and helpful. The Villa is located in a quite private property with a lot of other villas, but you can be relaxed regarding your car and stuff as the whole property is with private access. The place is actually at the "nice" side of Catania. By saying nice I mean that it is a bit scary in Catania downtown.
We love the location and the hotel it is a small hotel with super clean modern rooms this is our second time there in less than a month. We love the staff and breakfast is always super fresh. We also love that there is a small parking area just across the road and our car is really safe there.
The property was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It was also in a great location, very close to small shops, restaurants, and cafés. The host gave clear instructions on how to enter the property and use the facilities inside such as WiFi.
The room was spacious and clean, and the owner very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed the free breakfast of pastries and coffee. The hotel is just a short walk away from Aci Castello’s main square, and a half hour drive to the airport in Catania.
Totally fabulous location just up from the sea with amazing view ms of Etna,the sea and Catania.The balcony is the best I’ve ever seen and the flat is just perfect.The lady who owns it was so kind and charming.It was like an oasis
The host was super friendly, even language was barrier, he was able to communicate and understand us well. Nice place with car parking. Located close to beach, nice views, clean washrooms and kitchen.
Very warm welcome by host Salvo. Comfy rooms, great breakfast. Very close to the sea and a bus stop to Catania at a very short distance (less than 5 mins walk). Quiet and peaceful neighbourhood.
The apartment is clean, comfortable, well equipped and organized. The owner is very kind and helpful. The location is perfect if you like to visit Catania and its surrounding,
Fantastic spot to explore Sicily! Close to the water, number of restaurants and an old castle.
Great value, easy contact with the host. Definitely recommending!
