Villa holiday rentals in Floresta

This is the most beautiful villa: well maintained, wonderful hosts, fully stocked with most everything you would need. The location is very good for exploring this part of the island and the views of the sea on one side, and Etna on the other is really remarkable. The hot tub and pool are amazing and the space is very well organized with large rooms and plenty of common areas.

We had the most lovely stay! The place is truly charming and you get the feeling of living in a Sicilian luxury home near a small charming town. The hosts, Giuseppe and Giulia, are warm and caring and highly service minded. They go above and beyond to make your stay pleasant, and to ensure that you see all the gems the area have to offer. We were welcomed at the villa with plates of local specialities and they even delivered desserts some nights. They picked us up at the train station when we arrived and arranged car hire. So, you’ll be in very good hands if you choose to stay here! The villa is nothing short of spectacular! Amazing view from the balcony, olive and citrus fruit trees in the back garden and a well equiped kitchen. It is nice clean and it is evident that Giuseppe and Giulia take great care of the place. In short: we highly recommend this place if you want laid back vacation with all that you need, local sicilian atmosphere and a heartwarming service.

Martina was great to deal with, extremely helpful and responsive. The apartment is in a peaceful and scenic location with fabulous views. The beds are very comfortable but the bunks are rather narrow and the top one is high. The kitchen is decently equipped although we struggled a bit with the stove top coffee maker. The living room has plenty of seating. The terrace is lovely and spacious with good seating to admire the view. The stairs: Yes, long-ish and steep-ish but I’m 78 and had no problem. Martina provides a very honest and comprehensive description of the location and local interests. Definitely would recommend to friends.

We enjoyed staying at Alessandra's holiday home during a very warm few days in early September. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was very much appreciated. The house is on a very busy road but once you have negotiated the gates there is no road noise at all as the house is set well back from the road. The house is surrounded by lovely gardens and has a fabulous swimming pool which we used daily and was just the job after a hot day sight-seeing in the locality. We were very comfortable in the house which had everything we needed for 4 adults.

We had a very nice week !

This space is amazing and right on the water that you can swim in. Not much to do in the town but a nice space that’s in between some of the bigger coastal cities. For comfort I recommend using the mosquito netting and night and opening some windows for colder air. Overall would stay again.

We spent two nights at Tatiana and Giancarlo's place. The place has everything you need and Tatiana was incredibly helpful. We were also sent a brochure with helpful information about the place and what Tatiana could help with. The place is 5 to 10 minutes walking a lot of stairs up to the city center and the gondola of Mazzaro and the villa itself is sheltered from the noise of the city. There is also a great pool area on the property that you can use if desired. Everything was clean and the apartment appeared very exclusive in the furnishings and decor. There is good and sheltered parking at the property. We recommend the place and had a wonderful stay.

Beautiful location and a beautiful home! Hosts were great and provided a lot of local recommendations.

We would like to thank Alessandra for the wonderful service and most important the incredible stay at their house. This was one of the best places we have stayed in. She is most definitely a super super and top top host. Keep it up and we will definitely be back. Thanks once from the whole family.

We had a wonderful stay at this awesome house. The view was amazing! The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen will equipped. It was fun cooking Sicilian food there. We also enjoyed playing with all the cats that came by regularly. That was so cute. Although we had missed the point in the description of the property that there was a second apartment below and we had to share the pool and garden area it was not much of an issue once we got it. And the other guests were nice too. The cold pool was really nice to swim in and refreshing. The sunbeds on both levels were super comfortable abs a pleasure to use. Having the parking inside the compound was also really practical. Giuliana was a fantastic host. She always helped is immediately with everything.

This villa is not a modern hotel but a grand estate reminiscent of the aristocracy of Italy; private, but living within the culture of the surrounding area. The grounds are lush and gated with a very large swimming pool. A car is necessary to get to other cities and/or bus stops/train stations. The GPS on our personal phones was excellent and useful in traveling around Sicily. Our hosts, Francesco and Maria, were warm and genteel. They live on the premises next to the villa so access to their assistance and advice was always available via phone, AirBNB and What's App. The beds are antique and amazingly comfortable - a recommendation would be to have additional pillows available for those who may not be back sleepers. We had 7 women from our bookclub back home and it sleeps 13 so there is plenty of space for a larger group. We would stay at the villa again if we do go back to Sicily. We had a great time!!!!

Fantastic House with the best imaginable view! Mari was an exceptional host and took good care of us! Highly recommended!

This place is a gem. For the 11 of us we found it perfect. The house is wonderful and was great to just lay around the pool and relax. But was also a good base for day trips. You’ll want a rental car.

This place is heavenly !!!! Hidden away in a lemon orchard with a beautiful pool! Hosts are amazing !!

Everything was perfect. Emanuele is very responsive and accommodating. The villa is amazing, great location, great view, very well equipped (swimming pool, barbecue, parking space etc.). We were a group of 14 and had a great time. I highly recommend it!

Great host, very attentive. Place was a paradise!

We stayed here as a family for a week. The place is very nice and well maintained. In particular, the large garden where you always have the choice between sun and shade is great. The accommodation itself has everything you need including coffee and breakfast snacks. By car, supermarkets and restaurants are quickly accessible and the old town of Syracuse is only 15 minutes away. Silvia is very friendly and helpful. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the tranquility.

Lovely Airbnb in a private compound. Walkable to the little village of Santa Tecla and to a Hotel with a nice Lido. Paolo was a great host and very responsive throughout the stay.

A beautiful villa with old-world charm yet modern feeling. Amazing views of both the ocean and Etna. Well maintained gardens and grounds, with a lovely pool and sitting area. Pino and Viviana were always quick to respond and helpful. Truly a special place

Guiseppe was probably the best host we have ever been to . He is super friendly , flexible and gave us priceless recommendations for the surroundings and local restaurants. He even send us the perfect parking spots for sightseeing!!! His enchanting Mum was living next door, which was a plus for quick questions. Highly recommend the place.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Ambra. As others have mentioned in previous reviews, the place looks better than in the pictures. It was clean and had a very nice outdoor area with a pool, sunbeds, dining area, grill and table tennis. We had to check in very late, but that was no problem which was very nice. We would also like to recommend the taxi driver Carmelo and his son Luca, recommended by the host of the villa (his card is in the villa). Carmelo was like our private guide every time we needed to go somewhere and told us a lot about the history of Naxos, Taormina and Castelmola. On the final day he took us to Siracusa for a day trip, which we highly recommend!

Probably one of my favorite Airbnb experiences so far. The place is beautiful, even more beautiful than the photos, super spacious, has everything we needed and more, and had stunning views of Etna. We felt right at home and did not even want to leave the place to explore. Daniella was a superstar, she was very friendly, proactive, responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for accommodating us, we had a wonderful time.

A great home away from home for the Christmas Holiday. The kitchen was amazing and allowed for us to make all our traditional Christmas dishes. Furthermore, the living room was cozy. The couch was perfect and allowed multiple people to curl up and watch Christmas movies. Additionally, the gaming room provided much needed space for board games, karaoke, puzzles, and reading. The house was immaculate, and our host was absolutely wonderful. We showed up late the first evening and our host made traditional Sicilian delicacies for us to eat. The arancini were delicious. I would 100% come back, especially in the summer so I can enjoy their beautiful pool. 100% recommend.

The villa has everything you need for a comfortable stay including a well equipped indoor and outdoor kitchen .The pool area is beautiful with lemon and orange trees .All of which you can pick and enjoy throughout your stay .It's a shirt walk into town where there are a couple of restaurants and coffee shops .There's also a supermarket .
