Our host was friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and simple. We had all we needed for a one night's stay.
We enjoyed our breakfast on a beautiful terrace.
Providing a garden, Casa Scogliera provides accommodations in Aci Castello. This apartment offers free private parking, a 24-hour front desk, and free Wifi. Staff on site can arrange a shuttle...

Locals were rude and often very Arrogant and attempted to overcharge far too many times. They hope you won’t challenge them about it. My advice is , Ask how much before paying and Check your receipts and bills .
The town is scruffy and dirty. The vast amounts of discarded Rubbish on the streets is difficult to ignore. Definitely would not return.
Positive note : The sea view and the sunset is beautiful.

Actually Frasteva is located in the town of Valverde not in Aci Castello, which is a short drive awa. It is more inland than Aci Castello and it is convenient to all of the towns that make up "Paesi Etnei", that is, the little towns on the southeastern slope of Mount Etna, which are suburbs of Catania. It is a great jumping off point for Taormina, Catania and Siracusa and is a twenty-five minute ride to the airport, depending on traffic.
What makes this newly renovated and picturesque venue a perfect stay are the wonderful accomodations and the personal and cheery attention to detail given to all that stay there by its host, Stefania. She is simply an absolute pleasure to interact with. I am going there the next time I return to the Catania area and I assure anyone who stays there that they will not be disappointed.

Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT!
Aci Trezza is beautiful...the place we stayed in is NOT! It had literally a derelict entrance, with wires dangling from the ceiling, parts of which appeared to be about to give in; filthy place (I was expecting to see rats it was that bad!)....It is NOT close to the beach (although the place had a seaview); I would certainly NOT recommend to anybody! Will most certainly not book again! If I were to rate it honestly I would give a 2/10 and the 2 is only for the seaview!

Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea.
Very quiet place .. Small but very connected to the sea. So fish is staple. It is a bit laid back . Think basic and you will love it.
It is such a shame that the towns coming down to Aci Castello (note that this town is close to sea level) have a lot of garbage scattered around and gives you a very different vibe of this beautiful basic fishing village ..

Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore...
Aci Castello is a great place to stay if you want to explore the area - the wonderful coastline up to Taormina, the great sights while trekking around Etna, and breathtaking villages like Castiglione di Sicilia.
Aci Castello is smaller and quieter than its walk-to, more touristy neighbour Aci Trezzo, and 'The Sea You Can Feel' is a unique place to stay, perched high above the rocky coastline. There are stunning 360 degree views from the spacious roof terrace, a perfect place to indulge in a sundowner or two, whilst the 'lookout' below has 3 walls of windows for relaxing and taking in the amazing location!
The owners, Giuseppe and Antonella are passionate about Sicily and gave us loads of useful advice.
Great location close to the core of AciTrezza, with free parking. Great view of the Costa dei Ciclopi from apartment.
I loved the gas stove. Internet was fine. Friendly and supportive hosts.
Spectacular are the neighbouring towns. AciTrezza itself is a charming fishing village. AciCastello, which can be reached by foot in 20 minutes, has a nice castle and a sea terrace with relaxing cafes. Acireale is a spectacular middle-sized town with a fascinating passegiata and great shopping. Taormina is a 40 minutes ride away.
Our hosts were super friendly and we really enjoyed chatting with them. Villa Antonio is located on a hillside overlooking the city of Catania with seaviews and is only a short drive from the city and the neighbouring seaside towns of Acicastello and Acitrezza, which are popular for their seafood restaurants. It is also a few minutes drive to the north-south east coast highway. The property itself is very clean and WIFI is fantastic. Breakfast was also very good with both salty and sweet options.
We had the most amazing stay in Catania. The property is just near the sea, extremely clean room and beautiful view on the balcony. The apartment is near the beach, a coffee shop and a few restaurants and just near is a bus station to arrive in the center of Catania. We enjoyed coffee with a view every morning. The host was the kindest man we ever meet in Sicily. He helped us with everything we needed and we are extremely grateful for this beautiful experience. Will definitely come back.
La Terrazza was delightful. Federico and his mom are wonderful, caring hosts. The B&B is spotlessly clean and modern, and has just four rooms, so it's very quiet and intimate. View from the terrace is spectacular, and we could easily walk into Aci Castello or Aci Trezza from its location. Our room was comfortable, and the bathroom was larger and better-appointed than most in Sicily. There is secure parking inside the house's gated entrance--a real bonus.
Very nice villa with amazing garden. Our room was with terrace, our friends had a balcony, it was vey nice to sit outside in the evenings. Breakfast in the garden was top! Nice location, 8 km from Catania but easy to reach by car. Very close to sea side. Very helpful recommendations from the host (we forgot to ask her name) also very tasty cakes from her for the breakfast. Overall it was very enjoyable and it is highly recommended.
It's clean, comfortable, hot water, wifi, beautiful view, walking distance from the beach, the marina and a range of bars, restaurants, etc. The owner is really friendly, helpful and responsive. I was very happy to sit and work on the balcony, with birdsong from the left and the sea view on the right, day and night.
We love the location and the hotel it is a small hotel with super clean modern rooms this is our second time there in less than a month. We love the staff and breakfast is always super fresh. We also love that there is a small parking area just across the road and our car is really safe there.
The apartment is in an excellent location, right next to all the restaurants and next to the sea. It was very clean and full of facilities. Yes I would recommend this apartment to my friends. In summer acitrezza is a lovely place to stay and to enjoy.
The room was spacious and clean, and the owner very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed the free breakfast of pastries and coffee. The hotel is just a short walk away from Aci Castello’s main square, and a half hour drive to the airport in Catania.
Amazing and huge mushroom houses.
Naomi and Moreno kept us updated about everything and they well looked after us everyday. Swiming pool is clean and well located. Also we have had an own beach which is awesome.
We will back for sure!!!
The host was super friendly, even language was barrier, he was able to communicate and understand us well. Nice place with car parking. Located close to beach, nice views, clean washrooms and kitchen.
We loved the location. Everything about the neighborhood was great. It met our needs perfectly. The recommendations for places to go and things to do were put to good use and very much appreciated.
The apartment is clean, comfortable, well equipped and organized. The owner is very kind and helpful. The location is perfect if you like to visit Catania and its surrounding,
Fantastic spot to explore Sicily! Close to the water, number of restaurants and an old castle.
Great value, easy contact with the host. Definitely recommending!
