Villa holiday rentals in Giardini Naxos

It’s a beautiful villa tucked away on top of a hill! The villa is clean and utterly beautiful!! The hosts left some gifts for us like wine and olive oil. Just an amazing experience. The views from this place are unmatched, even at night! The outdoor space is perfect for hanging out.

Villa Gorna is an amazing location with fantastic hosts. The property is as described and photos are accurate. A lot of care was taken to put nice extra features. Orazio was very responsive and helpful, with offers available for tours etc. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend.

This place has been a highlight of our trip. It is peaceful, comfortable, very spacious and full of character. Our hosts were amazing, friendly, full of local knowledge and very prompt answering any questions we had. Our arrival was welcoming with delicious snacks provided and a free guided tour of how to get to the best local shops. It is close to everything that you would want to see and there is a restaurant within walking distance. The outside shower is amazing, but there are also 2 indoor alternatives. Jane and Bill

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.

Alessandra’s property just north of Viagrande was an excellent location for us to explore Mt Etna and surrounding towns. Alessandra was a great communicator and accommodated our late check in after an evening flight into Catania. Our children enjoyed exploring the grounds of the property but the guest house itself is quite rustic (which was fine for us).

The villa was above and beyond what we imagined! The pictures do not do it justice! The hosts went above and beyond to welcome us into their own, helping us with every need and question. The included breakfasts were fantastic and we had the villa owner cook for us one night served by the pool and it was by far one of the best meals we had in all of Italy. The pool was such a special treat each evening after our day visiting Mt Etna (super close to access) or around town. We would highly recommend this place as it’s spacious (we had 8 and there was extra room) and the hosts really went above and beyond to help us with every need! The only downside we had was that we only stayed for 2 nights! We will return to Sicily just to stay at this villa again! Va bene! Grazie mille!

We had an amazing stay here! The house is nestled in the mountains with a large open space — perfect for our dog to run and play freely. There are fruit trees and lemon trees in the yard, and we were welcome to pick and enjoy them — such a lovely touch! The host was incredibly kind and thoughtful — the house was very clean and they even prepared breakfast and some small gifts for us. Highly recommended for anyone who loves nature, peace, and a pet-friendly environment!

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.

This was our first visit to Sicily. We were a group of 8 with 3 families. We had plenty of space & privacy. The home is truly as beautiful as the photos & is like a step back in time. Maria is an amazing artist who added her special touches all over the home This was Francesco’s grandfathers home built in the late 1800’s. The backyard overlooks the town below & the ocean w Mt Etna on the other side. Magnificent! The added bonus of Rosaria’s services made us feel incredibly pampered. Her services are an additional fee but are very well worth it. She cooked 2 amazing meals for us (her chicken cacciatore is the absolute best!). She also helped secure a restaurant reservation & transportation. Note that a driver or rental car is a must. Unless you are fluent in Italian you will need translation apps. Truly a lifesaver as Sicilians often do not speak English. We would definitely stay here again if we are ever fortunate enough to visit the beautiful island of Sicily.

This was the most magical Airbnb experience ever. Guiseppe and Giulia are the most hospitable Hosts I have ever come into contact with. They went above and beyond to make our stay the best. The villa is incredible with massive outdoor grounds to enjoy and a very beautiful large deep clean pool. Inside the villa is exactly as described but better! They were gracious and filled the fridges with many drinks to enjoy. They met us at the toll booth and escorted us to the villa and then drove us around town later to familiarize ourselves to the area and provided many dining recommendations. They were even so kind as to make reservations under their family name and deliver the most amazing desserts I have ever had! The location of the villa is perfect for day trips to Savoca and Taormina and surrounding areas. To have such a beautiful peaceful villa to return to made this our own slice of heaven! I would return in a heart beat. Thank you Giuseppe and Giulia for the most amazing stay.

Salvo and family are helpful and welcoming hosts organising pick up and food for our late night arrival. We were without a car and they made getting around very easy for us. The lovely house is on a quiet street walkable to small supermarket and some other shops. It is very spacious, nicely presented without being too precious making for a comfortable stay. Lots of outside space inc roof terrace, outdoor kitchen, eating and sitting spaces, garden areas and around the pool. There are side tables to have by the loungers. Inside, the kitchen is very well kitted out. At 1st floor there are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, on the ground floor 3 en suite rooms, + 2 loos. The bedrooms are great (balcony or door to courtyard space) with some bathrooms needing some maintenance; the broken toilet seat was fixed quickly which was much appreciated. A big thank you to Salvo and his family for everything they did for us. We had a great time in this lovely house.

It was a very pleasant stay. The house is well-equipped and private. The road is a little noisy, but nothing bad. Convenient supermarket nearby, and easy to get to Naxos, Toarmina, and other cities. Cooking was very pleasant. Small addition: Larger glasses would be great, as would an ice cube maker and a shampoo and shower gel holder in the bathrooms.

Beautiful villa, spacious outdoor area, saltwater pool was fantastic. Fully equipped kitchen and BBQ area. Very clean and well presented throughout. Communication with host was faultless, all questions and calls were answered promptly. Villa was very private, we hired a car but Uber was very reliable and good value. Local restaurant Blue Ice was very good. Highlight was visiting nearby Taormina both on an evening and during the day. I would most certainly recommend Villa Flara and the beautiful island of Sicily. 🍋💕

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.

This house was one of the most amazing places I've ever stayed. We went for a week and a half on a family trip, and it could not have been more incredible. Somehow, the grounds are even more lush and beautiful and spacious than the photos make them look. Incredible views of Mt. Etna and innumerable spots for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Our manager of the property was more like a concierge. Gianluca was more welcoming and helpful than anyone I've encountered in years renting Airbnb places. We will surely be back and can't recommend it highly enough for anyone checking it out!

We encountered hosts + villa we can honestly say—-amazing + even more than we expected! Louisa + Chiara were so wonderful + accommodating, suggesting local activities + restaurants, booking our wish list + providing great advice. The villa is absolutely beautiful, spacious + decorated with the most eclectic artwork. There is A/C in the two bedrooms for comfortable sleeping and numerous porches and balconies to sit and have a meal or cooling drink in the afternoon. The views are lovely + we enjoyed breakfast daily on the porch off our bedroom overlooking Taormina. It is about a 7 minute walk down the hillside to the center of town. You will really appreciate your private retreat of Villa Britannia after a busy day in town or the beach! There is also a large gourmet kitchen stocked with all you need if you love to “cook at home”. Louisa provided us with eggs, milk , cold bottles of water + bread on arrival which was very sweet. This is perfect for couples, families or bride and groom. ❤️

The house located in a truly peaceful and relaxing place, with lemon trees and olive trees around; the house is very beautiful and lovely, with lovely flowers around the garden, and smell really good. Vanessa and her family are very kind and nice, provided us everything we need. It's easy to drive to so many nice restaurants nearby, and very close to several towns and cities. We had a wonderful week here!

Beautiful stay in Aci Catena. The space comfortably accommodated all four of us and the beds were one of the most comfortable of our whole trip. The outdoor area was amazing with the pool surrounded by many olive, lemon and peach trees. Daria was very willing to help with every question we had and made many recommendations throughout our stay. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quaint stay, yet so close to everything.

We had a great stay at Marco’s place. The house was super clean, and large, with all the amenities needed. Wifi was a bit slow but still functional. Kids loved the game room and the swimming pool. You will need a car to get around ( as mentioned in the listing).

Beautiful home! If you are staying in Catania and visiting surrounding areas, Isabella’s home is perfect. This was a quiet, private, spacious oasis of a property in the middle of the busy city life. Centrally located to visit the key attractions. Isabella was the perfect hostess! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed in their family home that has been in their family for generations. This home was great for our family of 6 and had enough space for everyone to spread out. The grounds and pool are beautiful. Isabella organized a traditional Sicilian meal to be cooked as well as a fun pizza night utilizing the authentic pizza oven. Isabella is a perfect hostess and provided us great information including a boat tour which was the best. What a lovely, and welcoming property!

Marcos place can only be discribed as a small piece of paradise,the gardens are very well maintained and look very beautiful.the pool is perfect to relax on hot days and the view is amazing.the property is so clean and is equipped with everything you could need for long or short stay and very comfortable.i had an amazing weekend here and definitely recommend Marcos place ..go and see for yourself .Marco is a great host and very responsive to all messages and gave local recommendations and made booking for a restaurant for us too and very friendly and you are in good hands at Marcos place and Luigi is great and available also , thank you both for a magical weekend.Definately recommend and will definitely come back. thank you again Bren

Amazing house and super kind owner! You can feel it’s very relaxing, clean and great place to rest. Indeed, you probably cannot get here without a car, and the road is quite challenging. But the house is rewarding you as soon as you open the gate :) I recommend 100%

The house is located at the foot of Mount Etna with a view of the volcano and the sea. The large garden with lemon and orange trees has a beautiful pool, which should be renovated, however, as the mosaic tiles are quite broken. The house is ideal for a large family with 3 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus 1 single room and a children's room. There were plenty of fresh towels and extra pool towels, clean bed linen, plenty of glasses and dishes. The kitchen was well equipped, some parts not up to date. The facility consists of old Italian furniture, plus small Ikea parts. The historic house is quite typical of the region, the structural condition is borderline for Central Europeans. The dining area in the garden under the large umbrella is beautiful. A cook can be booked, that was great! Unfortunately, there is an event location in the immediate vicinity that has very loud music until 2 a.m. and it disturbed us a lot. Nevertheless we had a lovely time!

A corner of magic in the Sicilian hills We stayed at this enchanted AirBnb and were deeply fascinated by it. The advice is to arrive before nightfall: the GPS suggests very narrow roads, which can put you a little apprehensive, but following the directions of Cinzia you reach the place in complete serenity. It's really worth the trip! The place is simply magical, with attention to detail, immersed in the wild and authentic beauty of nature. Every corner tells a story, every detail conveys love and attention. During the night, we witnessed the evocative spectacle of the Etna lights that shone behind the hill - an experience that left us speechless. As a yoga teacher, I can say that it is also a perfect place to organize retreats: silence, beauty, and inspiration blend into a harmony that nourishes the soul. Thank you so much for this special experience.
