Guest Reviews
- Giulia (8/5): - Struttura molta bella, con un bellissimo giardino che dona molta tranquillità e pace. Roberto è un host gentile e disponibile, pronto a dare consigli ed aiutare per qualsiasi cosa. Posizione ottima, con bar ristoranti e supermercato a portata di mano. Camere pulite e spaziose, con una zona in comune (soggiorno e piccola cucina) utile e dotata di ogni comfort. La stanza assegnata era un po rumorosa perchè si trovava vicino alla strada principale, ma tutto sommato siamo riusciti comunque a riposare bene
- Denise (10/5): - Each apartment has access to a beautiful portico and garden which is a lovely welcome when you come from the streets. The hosts are very kind and helpful. Within a short distance you can access a number of shops for bread, fruit, vegetables; supermarkets; train station, restaurants and the beach. N/A
- Agnese (8/5): - L'edificio è molto bello e le camere affacciano su un giardino ricco di piante.
- Carmela (7/5): - Struttura curata nei minimi dettagli, pulita,il proprietario una persona splendida Nella stanza c era un po' di umidità, che aimé essendo allergica mi ha causato qualche problema . Inoltre priva di climatizzatore, che per il periodo caldo non è il massimo del comfort
- Delphine (10/5): - Très bon séjour à La Baronnessa. Roberto, l'hôte, est très accueillant. Le jardin est magnifique, la maison typique également et très propre. Logement très bien situé à Riposto
- Chavaugn (9/5): - Roberto who owns the property is absolutely wonderful, he is so welcoming and accommodating, and does his best to speak to you in English (although he does speak Italian, French, Dutch and German!). The garden and apartments are beautiful, the location great, an easy walk to town and the beach, lots of on street parking available too The beds were on the firm side and it would have been great to have more than one pillow each
- jachimska (7/5): Mieszczański klimat niezbyt mi się podobał. - Idealna lokalizacja jeśli chce się odwiedzić Etnę, Taorminę, Katanię. Cudny ogród ipatio, które dają chłód w upalny dzień. Brak możliwości zrobienia prania oraz duszny, zwilgły zapach starego domu. Nie było też możliwości przygotowania gorącego posiłku.
- Giuliano (9/5): - The room was clean and tidy, services simple but appropriate. Very nice the ancient rock walls shielding from the warm weather and the cozy patio in authentic Sicilian style.
- Carmelo (10/5): Exceptional - Roberto was lovely, so welcoming, friendly, and helpful with everything we asked. He also recommended us places to eat and visit. We fell in love with the outside garden and terrace where we could enjoy our meals.
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (9/5): I would recommend the property. - It was coizy and cheap. The room is dark.
- Robert (10/5): Great apartment - Great location
Charming apartment.
Very comfortable We don’t have anything negative to say. We enjoyed our stay.
- Mary (10/5): Exceptional - Can we suggest that owners make slight change to website to avoid confusion Re breakfast. Website suggests full Sicilian breakfast is included in daily tariff. However the owners informed us this wasn’t applicable to our booking. Wording needs to be changed to reflect this.
- Pauline (9/5): A lovely, peaceful oasis, quiet and comfortable. Welcoming and attentive hosts - Beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for a four night stay with friends. Easy access to other attractions nearby I would recommend some insect repellent for outside eg coils etc as we were not able to take full advantage of the beautiful gardens.
- Nataša (9/5): Great stay at La Baronessa - We had a wonderful stay at La Baronessa. Roberto was such a welcoming host and provided us with a lot of valuable information about the local area. And I never thought that I would speak German with my sicilian host, that was interesting. The room itself was clean, comfortable and very artistic designed. We also really liked a big garden full of different plants, even three small turtles. We also chatted with other guests, who were from Finland and Switzerland. Mosquitoes were quite hungry while we hang around in the garden, so be sure to bring some Autan with you. 😃
- Helena (9/5): Nice accommodation as promised with the best possible location in Riposto - On arrival at La Baronessa we were warmly received by the host's son who showed us our room and the common areas. The accommodation met all our expectations. The patio and garden where you can enjoy your meal or coffee are particularly nice. The room was large and very clean. The living room and kitchen are shared with other guests and were well equipped. The accommodation is centrally located in Riposto, close to the port, the beach and a large number of restaurants. The host was available throughout our stay and was very helpful.
We recommend this accommodation and will be happy to return.
- Antonia (1/5): The gentleman was lovely but the female host was absolutely rude - not even allowed to eat outside on a shared patio to - It was located well No blankets or pillows - not even a spares (very strange) over grown which bred mosquitoes - not impressed
- Gabrielė (9/5): Amazing Sicilian experience - The yard is amazing, we had our meals outside which was beautiful. We could use all of the shared kitchen. The owners are very very nice and super helpful! We had an amazing two days! The only small thing was that the room didn’t have AC and it was a but too hot to sleep.
- Rosie (10/5): A serene oasis tucked away in the heart of Riposto - This charming garden oasis, nestled beside a stunning house, exudes warmth and hospitality. Giovanni, our host, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped; we effortlessly prepared breakfast on our own. The property's location is ideal—close to the majestic Mount Etna and within walking distance of beautiful beaches and delightful restaurants. The WI-FI works very well and parking is possible just near by the house. Giovanni and his family are incredibly attentive, answering all our questions and going the extra mile to ensure everything was comfortable and hassle-free. We just loved the place!
- Guy (10/5): A great experience, great hospitality and a beautiful garden. - First and most importantly the hospitality was amazing, the host, Giovanni was so nice and helpful.
The location is great too, in the center in a nice and quiet street. Lastly, the garden inside the property is amazing, from the moment you get there you feel relaxed.
- Yaron (9/5): Fabulous place! - This gem of a garden, surrounded by a magnificent house, feels comfortable and welcoming. Giovanni was extremely helpful and accommodating.
Well equipped kitchen (we made breakfast for 7 easily).
It's close to mount Etna. Beautiful beaches and restaurants at walking distance. No Aircon. While the rooms stay relatively cool during the day, when the temperature outside is 37c, it gets really hot inside.
- Adam.90 (10/5): Highly recommended B&B - Pleasant and relaxing stay at this renowned B&B. The hospitality of the owners was truly unique, always available to advise us on what to visit and where to stop to savor Sicilian delicacies. We came without a car, we reached the B&B directly by walking from the Giarre/Riposto train station, about 500m. Excellent value for money, top cleanliness and large, comfortable rooms. The strong point of the B&B is certainly the internal garden, full of plants, colors and intense scents. Sleeping at night with the coolness of the lava stone walls and the scent of jasmine and citrus fruits is absolutely priceless.
Thank you very much and for sure see you next time. Obviously, highly recommended! The top!
- Sanja (9/5): Oasis in the middle of a small town - The garden is an oasis in the middle of a small town. The rooms are furnished with attention to detail and individually. The owners were very friendly and offered many suggestions for things to do. The cat was cute and cuddly. We felt very relaxed and comfortable.
- Peter (6/5): Pleasant -
- Adam.90 (10/5): Exceptional stay - The B&B was excellent, those who want relaxation, tranquility, peace and want to unplug are the right place. The house and room are truly wonderful, nothing is missing. We appreciated the internal garden and patio where we could relax even if our trip was for work. The B&B fully exceeded our expectations, we can only recommend it and we will certainly return. Always the top! Thanks for everything :)
- Peter (8/5): This is a wonderful house and hosts extremely kind and generous in helping guests. - It is a beautful and extremely comfortable house and rooms for guests with facilities better than others. Roberto was extremely helpful and kind and attentive to our needs. The price for this stay was very good and I hope to be able to stay again in the future for a longer period. Midges at night.
- Epifanio (7/5): Good -
- Dana (10/5): Exceptional - First of all, we liked the willingness of the owner, Robert, who came to the station for us and, even before the accommodation, took us on a tour of Riposte. The accommodation was beautiful, clean, the equipment was perfect. Beautiful garden, sitting outside. Close to pizzeria, cafe, pastry shop, port. We enjoyed our stay, we recommend it to everyone who wants to travel around the area.
- Hristov (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kejsi (10/5): Exceptional - Where do I start... you can find parking for free right in front of the house for free and it is not a problem. But as soon as you enter the house it feels like something straight out of the fairytale. The building was a traditional Sicilian villa with a beautiful garden in the middle of it all and colorful tables and chairs outside with local motives. the room was in the first floor accessible by people with wheelchairs as well. The room was spacious and had natural light, the bathroom was outside of the room but accessible only by our room. Also, a kitchen was offered with all the basic stuff you needed if you wanted to cook. The city center was only a 3 min walk from the house, and the nearest beach about 5 min away by foot. The host was the best, he had curated the building with cards and suggestions of places to go around Riposto. I would definitely go back again.
- Betka (10/5): Exceptional - Great location for the main sightseeing points! Lovely and calm garden, with the cat Goethe and the turtles. Very nice hosts! 😁 Comfortable beds. We enjoyed our stay!
- Thibaut (9/5): Superb - a very nice welcoming host and a very big private space and room
- Oleksandr (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed at “Alcova” apartments and it’s so cozy, we loved it. Roberto and his lovely wife did everything for our stay to be comfortable and so it was indeed. Wonderful garden, friendly cat Goethe, great patisseries and restaurants nearby. The place is really quiet! We seriously wanted to stay for longer. Grazie Roberto.
- Lenka (7/5): Totally recommend the property, but the rooms with windows into the garden. - perfect host - always nice and helpful, beautiful property with stunning garden and great terasse, great location between the Riposto beach (5-10min) and town centre (bakery, grocery store, cafés, restaurants (5min), kitchen equipment, big room with lot of space the room had no window, only door straight to the street - no possibility to get some fresh air, very loud at night because of the traffic, WiFi connection in the room was very weak/none, lot of mosquitos, no breakfest possibility
- Pavlina (10/5): Very pleasant and stylish accommodation with a nice owner. The room was in a beautiful house with a -
- Dorota (10/5): Exceptional - I was visiting la Baronessa B&B with my friend. Our stay from the very beginning to the very end was a great experience. Walther, Giovanni and their dad were very helpful hosts and took care of everything. The B&B itself was better than we imagined. Beautiful room with wooden furnitures and colorful paintings made by Mr Litteri. And of course one of the most magical gardens I have ever seen. Riposto is a lovely city with not as many tourists, great to relax and spend time at the beach. I would also recommend having a breakfast at Pasticceria Chantilly, that is close to la Baronessa B&B. Delicious coffee, pastries and very friendly staff, that we will definitely miss. We regret not booking a few more days there! Thank you for all and we send belly rubs to Goethe! Everything was great!
