Il Casale di Monacella

Very well maintained, beautiful accomodation. Monica was great host.

Beautiful property kept perfectly. A little oasis with a thoroughly modern spacious apartment with great views of mount Etna. Monica is a wonderful host and a perfectionist when it comes to hospitality. So nice we stayed twice.

Don’t be put off by the rubbish on the road on the way to the property. Be prepared that it is not close to town.

This property exceeded our expectations, we really liked everything about it! Once you enter the garden gate you find a beautiful and perfectly kept garden and pool area, as well as a parking area, BBQ area and swings. The Casale is split up in a small number of self-catering apartments each having their own entrance and terrace. Our apartment was fully equipped and extremely clean. The property’s location is in a very quiet and wonderful area close to Mount Etna, making an ideal base to explore Sicily’s east coast. Finally, we were so pleased to have Monica as our wonderful host, as she made sure we enjoyed our stay from the moment we booked till the garden gate closed behind us after an unforgettable week!

There’s really nothing we can criticise about the Casale itself. Perhaps the only thing we didn’t like is that the public street leading up to the property is not so nice as it’s full of rubbish on each side. Unfortunately we witnessed this problem in several other areas between Messina and Syracuse. It seems that this is a public administration issue which is badly affecting the local tourism product.

It was a clean, well equiped apartment on a good location. It has a swimmingpool and a Barbeque-spot to share with the other 5 apartments.

There are houserules regarding use of the pool and noise, but families with kids disregard these rules. Most of the time the pool (even until after 9pm!) is literally taken over by kids. Surely the owner cannot be blamed for this, but a nice relaxing week at the pool is not guaranteed. The apartment complex is “well lit” at night and has many security camera’s which did not feel pleasant. An unexpected security deposit.

Beautiful villa everything was perfect & quiet would definitely recommend for families would be booking my stay there again me and my family loved every minute of our 3 night stay

Nothing everything was perfect

Nice, clean accommodation, with a nice garden and swimming pool. The owner was very nice and helpful.

This was by far the best accommodation me and my girlfriend ever had! It is a very calm and remote destination under the beautiful Etna park where you can relax to the highest level. I recommend a car for this stay since it is a starting point for many trips and you can use a car for grocery shopping too. Each one of the rooms is beautiful, new and well equipped! Each room has its own outside area where you can have breakfasts or dinners. The pool is magnificent. It offers the view of the whole resort and it feels like being somewhere completely else. To anyone considering this stay, either couple or family, I highly recommend it! And do not let me forget to mention Monica, the owner and facilitator. She is one of the nicest, kindest and friendliest owners I talked to ever. Communication with her is excellent, she replies days and nights and tries her best to meet your needs. Big thank you, Monica :)

Even though I am honest person, there is NOTHING I could say was wrong at this stay. It was just as I imagined it would be. I left very pleased and regenerated :)

Peaceful, clean, modern with good facilities

Nothing
