The property exclusively available to the renters is endowed with a private swimming pool, a garden, a beautiful terrace, 4 big en suite bedrooms and sea-facing kitchen and living room.
The tall lofty trees provide plenty of shade for relaxing in on hot days or you can cool off in the swimming pool if you prefer. By the pool there's a dressing room and bathroom too. Another corner of the garden houses a large stone patio with dining table, table tennis, BBQ and a fridge. An external staircase leads to the first floor where the spacious interior consists of a kitchen, dining table and a sofa corner with comfy couches and armchairs and an adjoining terrace with great views of the sea and Etna beyond, a gazebo and dining table. Three double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and a small toilet are on this floor too.

On the ground floor – with a separate entrance – are the housekeeper's apartments who take care of the garden and can provide 24/7 assistance in case of need. Next to these are the storerooms and the old winery ("palmento")- no longer in use, it serves as a "private museum" on the past of Sicily.

Summary: I stayed at the villa with my sons and daughters-in-law in celebration of my 60th birthday. Vera and Francesco greeted us and showed us around the beautifully preserved villa and immaculate property. We enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi and especially loved eating meals on the veranda with spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea and Mt. Etna. The hosts had a delicious fruit platter as well as water, juice and coffee upon our arrival. I highly recommend this villa and hope to return again in the near future. Grazie mille!

Summary: After much planning and anticipation, we made it to Sicily for a two week trip to explore our heritage, and to experience the the people, sights - and of course, the food! We began in the Palermo area with a swing through Enna culminating in our visit to the Etna area and our stay at Villa Praiola which was a highlight. Communications with our hosts prior to arrival were prompt, detailed, and friendly. Upon arrival, we were greeted like family. After a complet walk-through & tour, and a very interesting account of the villa's history, our hosts left us with a lovely fruit basket and a supply of staples to get us started. The villa was spotless. Everything is in excellent working order. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooks. During the booking process, our hosts recommended a local chef who made a very special dinner on the last night of our stay. Situated inside an agricultural area just outside of the small town center, the villa is easy to find and access. All around - including a portion of the villa property, are wholesale nurseries which makes for a unique setting. Except for a few periodic work trucks, and a lighlty used road to which the villa backs, it is peaceful and spectacularly situated between the sea on one side and Mt. Etna in the distance on the other. The grounds are full of lemon trees, and the pool and hottub were well maintained and ready for use. I can highly recommend Villa Praiola if you want to make some wonderful memories in Sicily!

Summary: We (6 adults and 2 teenagers) were so happy in this villa! The views are breathtaking. The home is so comfortable with four en-suite bathrooms!! The hot tub was used every night as the air in early June is cool in the evenings. Our hosts were so kind and even had generous provisions left for us so we could have a delicious breakfast, snacks, and drinks on hand right from the start! The nearby towns made everything we needed easy to access via car. It was a perfect place to explore Sicily from. But, honestly, it was hard to even leave the villa for a minute!! Many thanks to our hosts for making this a vacation we will never forget!!! We would love to return someday.

Summary: The Villa is absolutely stunning. So much more amazing in real life than pictures or even my words can convey. The sound of birds and fragrant lemon trees surround the property that has an amazing old world charm yet still modern conveniences. The beds were comfortable and the showers hot and every room had French doors that led to terraces with views of Mount Etna and the sea. We thoroughly enjoyed sipping coffee on the terrace each morning and soaking in the hot tub under the stars each night. It was also very sweet of the hosts to leave us juice, milk and fruit for the week and also to give us suggestions for dinner. Everything they recommended was perfect for us. I wish we could have stayed another week. We will definitely stay again if we are lucky enough to return to Sicily.:) Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Summary: Unfortunately, my wife and I had to cut our vacation short after just a few hours. But our friends with who we were traveling stayed at the house for a week and this is what they said: The house is fabulous. It is spacious and can easily accommodate 3 couples with an additional wonderful loft which kids would enjoy. The grounds are lovely and well cared for. The house is very well equipped and we easily cooked in a couple of nights. One great thing about the house is that it is situated in the middle of a large nursery and so seems remote, but is really very accessible. A relatively easy drive to the limited access expressway which allowed easy day trips along the entire east cost from Noto and Syracuse in the south to Castlemora and Toramino in the north. Also several restaurants from casual to high end very close and we walked to the beach one day. All very delightful. Our hosts checked on us once during our stay and everything they said they would do, they did and exactly when they said they would. We didn’t use the pool as it was late in the season, but did use the hot tub and we ate breakfast every day on the terrace/patio looking out at Mt Etna. A very delightful place to stay and I would recommend it without reservation.

Summary: We LOVED our stay here! Such a lovely, comfortable place that feels like a home. One of the best stocked kitchens we’ve had in a rental property, and thoughtful touches like a fridge stocked with water, juice, and beer, a fruit basket including fruits from the property, and essentials to get you started like plenty of coffee. Ceiling fans in all the rooms was an unexpected plus in the hot Sicilian summer, though the breeze on the terrace from Etna was delightful. Spectacular views, spotless pool and hot tub, a great respite after busy days exploring Ortigia, Taormina, Etna, Alcantara Gorge, beaches, and wineries. There are nice restaurants within short driving distance, though nothing really walkable. We cooked several nights and also had two great private chefs come in, Fabio Simone and Mario Stefano Traina. Highly recommend!

Summary: We had a lovely holiday in Sicily staying at this beautiful villa. The grounds are simply stunning, the gardens are so well maintained, we loved having fresh lemons every day from the Orchards to squeeze on our breakfast pancakes. There is so much to keep the kids entertained too - pool with dive board, hot tub and even table tennis! The views of Etna whilst sat on the balcony were amazing - especially when it started erupting and you could see the lava flowing down! The owners of the villa are lovely and give you lots of local information. We spent a lot of time at the villa relaxing and only visited Mount Etna (1hr drive) and Taormina (45min drive) - both worth visiting. The only thing that was a little bit disappointing was that you cannot walk to anything from this villa....no ice cream shops or little bars as it is on a fairly busy road you wouldn't really want to walk on. You must hire a car and you need to drive everywhere. That said there is a supermarket 5mins drive away and there is also a fantastic restaurant about 5mins drive from the villa called Le Serra - amazing views of Etna and fabulous food!! We went twice! Also be aware that none of the restaurants in the vicinty open before 7.30pm in the evening, Sicilian way I imagine, but we found this a bit restrictive with our 3 year old (who usually eats around 5pm) so we ended up eating in a few nights when he was too tired to stay up late. All in all though a great place to chill and spend time with the family! :)
