Casa Ionio - vista fantastica
Stayed 2 weeks in September/October 2023. Large spacious property on the first floor with a very large roof terrace above. Views from the balconies and roof terrace are fantastic. The keyholder Alessandra was very helpful. Swimming and snorkling from the rocks below the apartment is great provided the sea is fairly calm. There are also other more sheltered options for sea swimming a short walk along the coast. There is a very small shop a street or two away and a small bar at the harbour within easy walking distance. For any other facilities you would need to drive.

Große Wohnung, aber in die Jahre gekommen
Die Lage auf den Felsen am Meer ist wirklich toll und der Blick einmalig. Allerdings ist die Lage eher als relativ abgeschieden zu bezeichnen, da man doch immer das Auto braucht, um auch nur Kleinigkeiten zu erledigen. Zudem ist das Haus und die Ausstattung ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen. Ofen und Herd sind eher mittelalterlich und das Internet hat auch nur die ersten Tage funktioniert. Die Betten sollten auch mal erneuert werden. Und da man mitten in einer "normalen" Nachbarschaft wohnt, darf einen auch nicht stören, dass unter der Woche ab 7 Uhr die Handwerker oder Gartenarbeiter einem vom Schlafen abhalten. Pozzillo selbst bietet nicht viel und auch gute Restaurants sind fußläufig nicht zu erreichen. Die Terrasse mit traumhaften Aussicht auf Meer und Ätna entschädigt für einiges. Preis/Leistung sind ok.

Magical view of Ionian Sea
We had an amazing week of sunshine and spent a lot of time entranced by the view of the sea. The apartment is spacious with many seating areas to enjoy both the sea and the volcano, Etna. We were traveling with friends and it was a bonus to have two bathrooms. Plenty of space and ample dishes for cooking using delicious Sicilian ingredients.

beautiful seafront experience
We spent 5 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Terrific location in a small fishing village; views of the Messina Straits to the East and Etna to the West from the spectacular roof terrace. We took several walks from village to village with great views, friendly local businesses. Well appointed home as described on the website. Mid April is still cold at night so bring layers of clothing. Very spotty WIFI but if you can access internet via Hot Spot it worked perfectly. And the host facilitated a tour of Etna that was excellent.

Review for stay from 02 October 2022 to 09 October 2022
Une belle maison face à la mer et vue sur l'Etna à proximité de sites touristiques ou plus pittoresques en s'éloignant un peu, véhicule obligatoire car l'endroit est un peu excentré, la proximité de la ville d'Acireale offre toutes les commoditiés et on trouve partout l'ambiance sicilienne, sa chaleur, sa cuisine et la beauté des paysages.
