Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Metropolitan City of Messina

Beautiful, peaceful and serene. The sunrise over the sea is visible from the bedroom as it faces eastward. Decent hikes around the island. Hosts were helpful in finding us a place to dine out on the island even during low season. Will be visiting again!

Our stay at Casa Scirocco Glicine contributed to a magical week. The house is in a lovely location, the interiors are well cared for and comfortable, the outdoor patio is very enjoyable even out of season (we were there in April). The garden looks like a botanical garden, beautiful to be able to walk in the middle of plants in harmony with each other. The best part of the house was probably being able to enjoy breakfast as soon as you wake up with a view of the sea from above, Volcano in the background and cedar trees, mandarins and cactus in the foreground, listening to many different species of birds that greeted the day! We were checked in by Heloisa who was very nice and approachable even in the following days. We were also lucky enough to meet Alice and William who were two wonderful and friendly people, available to respond to every request and with whom it was also very pleasant to chat while drinking a beer.

The most beautiful little air bnb surrounded by beautiful flowers and animals. The view of the ocean was amazing. The hosts Elisa and Nino were very welcoming and kind and made us feel right at home. The only complaint we have is we wished we stayed longer!! Our favourite stay in Italy by far.

**5-Star Review: A Slice of Sicilian Paradise** We spent an unforgettable week in June at *Villa in Campagna con Piscina* and cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we were completely enchanted by the stunning beauty of the home and the surrounding gardens. The villa is even more gorgeous than the pictures—tastefully decorated, impeccably clean, and filled with charm. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to ensure comfort and relaxation. The gardens are a true highlight—lush, colorful, and meticulously maintained. Waking up each morning to the sound of birdsong and the scent of blooming flowers was pure magic. The pool area is equally serene and private, perfect for lounging in the sun or enjoying a quiet swim under the Sicilian sky. What makes this place truly special, though, are the hosts, Anna and Sergio. They are incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive without ever being intrusive. Their hospitality made us feel more like family than guests. F

We enjoyed our stay at Le Casette di Malfa. Toto was a responsive host and provided instructions about how to use the amenities upon arrival. Take into consideration the €20/person cash only fee for towels, which is very steep, as is the walk from the town to the property. Overall, it was a great property and the view from the terrace - especially at sunset - was spectacular.

Giuseppe is an exceptional host, very helpful and available. The village of Motta Camastra is very nice and the view is sublime. We were lucky to be there during the 2 days of the village festival so we could enjoy the concerts, fireworks, processions, illuminations and brass band. The apartment is very functional, well located in the village and allows you to enjoy the various visits to do in the vicinity including Etna. We regret not staying longer!

We had a good time at Giuseppe and Antonellas place. Enjoyed the view from the rooftop. It is placed in a charming part of town, with bakery and reTearants close by, and the churchbells ringing!

we are out of time in Montalbano and at Antonina's, we only feel peace, wonder and serenity

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A stunning Sicilian escape The villa was beautiful and spacious, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The long journey up the mountain was absolutely worth it, the view over the valley, the sea, and the surrounding villages is simply breathtaking. The house was very clean and well-equipped with all the essentials. The host was also very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. This region is truly one of the most spectacular areas you can experience in Sicily, highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at the appartement. We really enjoyed the beautiful balcony and the nature all around. We even got nice fresh fruits out of the garden!

This place is a dream! It really is beyond beautiful. A traditional Sicilian villa, which has been lovingly taken care of and feels like a family treasure. The garden is incredible, with lots of beautiful flowers and fruit trees, and potted plants all along the walls and balcony. And the views are amazing! From the kitchen and the upstairs terrace you can see the Etna, but from all of the windows the sights are just beautiful. Giovanni is the best host, very friendly and has lots of great recommendations for the area, for sightseeing and food 🥰 I couldn’t recommend this place enough!

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Grimodi, traditional Sicilian decor, lots of privacy and beautiful amenities. Our host also cooked us a delicious lunch when we arrived and dinner on our last night for an additional fee. The only unfortunate thing was we only stayed two nights and there were lots of thunderstorms so couldn’t fully experience all the beautiful outdoor spaces the property offers. Overall it’s an amazing Airbnb for a group who want to relax in a beautiful setting and with access to a huge pool. Note: if you want to explore the town, definitely rent a car as most restaurants/beaches are a short drive away and the house is up a hill.

This is a luxury gem hidden away in a tranquil location. The only minus off season was that most restaurants <30 minutes away were closed (October) otherwise this place is magic, clean, newly refurbished, has all necessary amenities, incredibly private and has excellent hosts and goat farmer neighbors ;)

Our expectations were exceeded. Paulo was so helpful and friendly. The pet dog Papoy even made our stay fun. Will definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone. Thanks for a memorable experience

We had a wonderful week in Patti - Lara’s home was the perfect base to explore the island from. Lara and Martina were extremely helpful, providing lots of recommendations for places to eat and visit. The pool is gorgeous, and there are balconies all around the house so you can chase the sun (or shade) throughout the day. We really can’t recommend this place enough.

We had a wonderful stay - the villa is beautiful, in a lovely location, and we were made very welcome. We were given a delicious breakfast each day with freshly made cake and omelettes. The swimming pool is lovely and we had sessions of Pilates and yoga. I can’t think of anything about our stay that could have been improved. Thank you so much Corrado and your team for looking after us so well.

I loved my stay, it's as the pictures show. The terrace is massive, with great views of the sea and Stromboli. And the whole place feels spacious. It is in a peaceful area, right next to the beaches (crystal blue waters and black sand). I recommend checking out the cave Grotta d'Eolo. The place is in good spot to go on a sunset hike up Stromboli. I was there at the end of May so there weren't as many nearby restaurants open but the open ones were all within walking distance. I had a great stay and would come and stay here again when I return to Stromboli.

This is the best apartment we've ever stayed in, anywhere.. The apartment is spectacular, it's so much better than the photos, it is huge and the quality of furniture and decor is absolutely excellent. The location is perfect, it manages to be just a few steps from the main streets of taormina, yet it's also really quiet and secluded, very rare to find. We were met by Monica, who handles the property for the host, she was absolutely amazing, so friendly and helpful, and always available. It was my partners 40th birthday trip, and Monica even dropped off a surprise gift for her on the day, everything was above and beyond expectations. We had the best trip ever and if you are going to taormina, this is the place to stay, without question.

Lorenza happened to be in Lipari city on the ferry when we arrived and spontaneously transported some of our luggage by car to Canneto, while we took the public bus to the neighboring village. The reception was friendly, on request she gave some tips for shopping and activities. The apartment is clean, bright, modern and tastefully furnished, terrace overlooking the sea, the long village street/promenade and the neighboring islands Panarea and Stromboli. Shopping, bistros and restaurants within walking distance. Bus stop right in front of the house. Highly recommended!

We left Giovanni's house, which in the meantime had become our home in Lipari, with a lot of melancholy but also the certainty that we will return. The house is new, equipped with everything you need, with large spaces furnished in a functional and tasteful way. Never hot, never used air conditioning even though it was available. Spacious, bright room, same for the living room and kitchen. But the best part is the magical large terrace where you can experience all the most beautiful moments, from sunrise to sunset. Salina, Filicudi, Alicudi are there in front of you in the magic of the light that surrounds them. Always enchanting, but it gives its best in the magic that is renewed differently at each sunset... The owner welcomed us at the port and throughout the period spent there, he was always a kind, present friend, more than willing to satisfy any request or anticipate it. We can only say thank you for these happy days

First off, it was immediately easy to see why Luigi is rated as a superhost. He greeted us with a huge smile, he was extremely in touch without being obtrusive, in the days leading up to our arrival, and he met us quite early (earlier than most hosts would ever consider) to meet us and show us the unit and give us the keys. Also, I messed up and locked both the keys and my cellular in the apartment - and a neighbor totally rescued us by calling Luigi - AND, Luigi showed up in under 10 minutes! I highly recommend this host - no matter what property it is, you can rest assured that you will have a fantastic experience. Luigi ALSO, by the way, provided one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed - it was immaculate upon arrival! Thank you, Luigi! 7 stars out of 5!!!

This home is beautiful! The pictures do not reflect how adorable this space truly is. In addition, this was the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. I was very impressed! I had a welcome bottle of wine, a beach bag provided packed with all beach necessities, toiletries galore, decor on point… truly a gem. The view from the apartment balcony is gorgeous. You can also go up 2 flights of stairs to the rooftop. This is the perfect location for restaurants and shops. For the beach, you can take a cable car down (€10 round trip), taxi, or most of the Lido/beach clubs have complimentary shuttles. Would highly recommend staying here!

A beautiful, simple stone house with blue doors and a veranda overlooking the sea and, on clear days, the Sicilian mainland. The two rooms are simply and tastefully furnished, they stay nice and cool during the day. Angelo's apartment is next door, he is a discreet landlord, very nice, helpful and accommodating.

We had a very relaxing and beautiful time in the accommodation. The location is rather secluded, very quiet and relaxing. Amazing view and the sea is very close, which is a real luxury! The furnishings and equipment are kept rather simple. Since the footpath (car not possible) to the house is very steep, the hosts take care of the transport of luggage and food at the beginning of the stay. It is therefore advisable to make the bulk purchase right at the beginning. That worked out great. The way to the city is easy to walk, albeit a longer stretch, but beautiful. The bus stops nearby. He rarely drives, but in our experience, he is reliable and punctual. So we got along great without a car on the island. The hostess was very quick to reach, very helpful and friendly.
