We loved our stay as a family here - a very relaxing experience, a nice big garden to explore, friendly owner and the best food. Great base for exploring the Etna and surroundings.

Laura and Giuseppe were wonderful hosts. Their renovation of an old winery sire is amazing! We had a wonderful, traditional Sicilian dinner the first night, and breakfast had so much of everything good, we could hardly walk! The area around CirasellaEtna had so much to explore, from lava tunnels and craters, to beautiful forsts and winery visits. We had a great couple days!

Summary: one of the best ever locations in Italy, with perfect food and warmest hospitality ever. Sicily has been on our wish list for years. Our choice to stay at La Cirasella, 1. 000 m up the Etna slopes, greatly added to the indeed great experience the island turned out to be. The warm welcome already started during booking. Where Laura went out of her way to provide near instant help with all our questions. When arriving at 9 pm we were invited to the main dining table to find a wide variety of delicious dishes set out for our first of many great diners. Each morning we and the other guests were amazed at the assortment of delicious, often home cooked and healthy breakfast dishes. Indeed the nicest start of yet another day of walking the Etna slopes, visiting historic towns and strolling on the beaches. And of course enjoying Italian ice cream: -) Tip: try pistachio ice, you'll want to take a big box home with you.. La Cirasella is located in the Etna national park and a great start, some right out of the gate, for walks on the lava flows and near moonlike landscapes. From our quiet and relaxing apartment the cities of Taormina, Giarre, Catania and many idyllic small mountain towns were within easy reach. A nice bonus to all this are the warm and energetic patrons Laura and Pippo. With Laura we had nice talks over (did I say delicious already?) diner and breakfast. To us a great touch is having our meals at one big table with the other guests. We learned about Malta from our neighbours and had chats about all kinds of small and big topics. We can advice all readers looking for a place to stay in beautiful Sicily to at least check out La Cirasella as an option. You will not regret it one minute! Cordiali saluti, Eerk Hofmeester and Dorothé Verhoeven the Netherlands.

Absolut empfehlenswerte Unterkunft, Laura und Giuseppe sind zwei sehr liebenswerte Gastgeber, die Unterkunft ist in perfekter Lage für natur- und ruhesuchende Menschen und idealer Ausgang für Wanderungen in der Ätnaregion. Besonders hervorzuheben ist Lauras Kochkunst, das Abendessen war täglich ein Erlebnis. Nicht zu vergessen ein Spaziergang durch den alten Obstgarten mit phantastischem Blick auf den Ätna.

Farmhouse on Etna managed by Laura and Giuseppe with the typical Sicilian hospitality - We became part of their family. Laura really pampered us with her exceptional cuisine, Giuseppe with his stories. Highly recommended for those who want to experience nature and the most authentic Sicily, for those who want to slow down the frenetic pace that overwhelms daily life.

A corner of paradise, immersed in a splendid reserve. Laura and Pippo are two helpful and interesting people, with whom you absolutely must have a chat. The location is great and the owners know how to give very useful advice on what to see in the surroundings. The breakfast is a dream, and for dinner there are no words to describe all the abundant delicacies that the owners prepare. \nA place to return to, as soon as possible.

The informal and authentic welcome, the sense of discreet hospitality of the hosts, the silence and peace of the neighboring woods, the good and genuine food, characterized by always different dishes, make this structure a truly magical place that made our vacation special! The hosts are deep connoisseurs of Etna and all the surrounding realities and spontaneously create simple maps with the aim of "guiding" travelers and hikers to discover the places of the volcano, from the simplest excursions to the more adventurous ones. The structure is indeed located in a strategic starting point for the various Etna itineraries or even for excursions in the nearby sea areas, including the splendid Taormina.

Siamo stati molto ben accolti dai gestori che hanno avuto un occhio di riguardo anche per i nostri amici a quattro zampe. Cordiali e cortesi senza affettazione ci hanno fornito tutte le indicazioni preziose per effettuare le nostre escursioni sull'Etna. Buona la colazione come anche la cena con prodotti locali coltivati in gran parte in azienda e ben cucinati. Una struttura sostanzialmente spartana ed essenziale col sapore di campagna vera , come noi ricercavamo. Ci si è sentiti subito a casa per la accogliente attenzione offerta dai proprietari, moglie Laura e marito Giuseppe, verso i rapporti con i propri ospiti. Bella la tenuta con una posizione fantastica proprio sotto il vulcano.

Come non innamorarsi dell'agriturismo Cirasella Etna. Lì abbiamo trovato la pace, il relax, il mangiare buono preparato con amore e precisione. La natura che circonda l'accogliente struttura rustica e il connubio di saggezza e simpatia dei proprietari Laura e Giuseppe sono fattori determinanti nell'affermare che è un agriturismo dove ritornare.
