Holiday rentals in Gioiosa Marea

This was one of the best experiences that I have had from an Airbnb. Both Antonio and his family made us all feel at home, they went above and beyond all of the amenities and the hospitality was incredible. As a Sicilian myself, it was so nice to feel the warmth of family with Antonella and Antonio. I thank you all for taking care of our family. We even experienced Etna Lava spill. We had a great experience and would recommend 10/10 for anyone looking for a great place to stay.

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

Beautiful apartment with everything you need on vacation. Supermarket and restaurant are about 10 minutes by car and in and around Nicolosi there are numerous providers for Etna hikes or quad tours. Alessandro was super helpful with lots of tips for the area and even contacts for Etna hikes. Everything very clean and a small supply of water and cooking basics in the kitchen. The apartment is a little bit noisy, but that's not too bad. Even when the owners were there, they were very quiet and even gave us fresh tomatoes and herbs from the garden! Absolutely recommended!

First off I will echo the other reviews and state: do not underestimate the drive down the hill to the house, communicate with Tina about it well before booking! That out of the way, this is one of the most spectacular air bnbs I've ever been to. The place has all you need and is very well done in terms of the facilities, water installations etc.; the SETTING & outdoor area, however, is outstanding: very private, lying at a hill in serene quietness. radiant days in absolute peace (barely any car noise even making it down the hill), a sunset that might move you to tears, followed by a night of stars that humbled us deeply. Fascinating nature around to explore in hikes if you're into it! We cherished the time here so much - thank you Tina for your warm and considerate presence, we wish you only the best :)

The place was really very nice. I traveled with a friend and we had the entire garden area, the pool, and the kitchen to ourselves for 7 days. We rented a car and were also able to park it in the yard. The town of Monterosso is not very touristy, which we liked very much to get an insight into the life of locals. Regarding the room, I can only say that it was very tidy and everything necessary was available. The only thing you should know is that the bed is a little hard. Otherwise, everything was really great. The stay was super relaxing and we enjoyed it very much.

Had a wonderful time at Francesco's place! He and Giovanna were very welcoming and generous hosts, sharing local recommendations and even some home made wine! The pool was the perfect spot to cool off after a hot day and the house was well placed for excursions to Etna. Thank you both for a delightful stay !

It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Luigi's place. Thank you for hosting us. The house was indeed quite unique and interesting. Clearly a lot of effort has been put in to wonderful decoration of the house. It is a great experience to stay there. The pictures don't do it justice - it's better than advertised. Looking forward to staying there in the future.

A great stay at a super nice place with great hosts :) would love to go again
