Perfect peaceful retreat
What a find! What makes this place is the utter privacy with panoramic sea views one way and the brooding Etna the other. Gardens and pool area are utterly fabulous and hosts very welcoming and discreet. House is small but stylish and well-equipped. Will return.

Simply brilliant holidays!
Dear Costanza and Salvatore, Thank you very-very much for this magic possibility to stay at your beautiful house! We really so much enjoyed our stay in Casa Cos and want to come back more and more. The place is beautiful, the atmosphere is simply nirvanic. We've got a really very-very good relax during those days. Thank you for you never ending hospitality, especially to Salvatore, who survived us at 3 am in the middle of Sicilian nowhere when we were lost. :-) Thank you so much and wish you all the best! Maksims and Family.

Rückmeldung
Das Haus hat eine sehr schöne Lage. Es ist sehr hübsch eingerichtet und besonders toll ist der lange Pool mit wunderbarem Ausblick. Ebenfalls gibt es eine traumhafte Terrasse, auf der man gut verweilen kann. Der Anfahrtsweg ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftigt, dann aber problemlos. Alles in allem zu empfehlen!

Detente absolue.
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre semaine dans cette maison. Le début n'a pas été facile car nous n'avions pas imaginé la position de cette location quand on s'aperçoit que le GPS ne trouve pas on comprend mieux ! Cependant on vient nous chercher pour y arriver la 1ère fois c'est parfait ! La maison est belle, piscine jardin, terrasse magnifique mais la route pour y accéder peut faire peur au début mais au vu de la tranquillité et des 15/20minutes à faire pour aller à la 1ere ville on accepte sans problème. Merci de nous avoir accueilli avec quelques produits frais cela nous a fait plaisir. Dommage que nous n'avons pas pu rencontré Mr Salvatore pour le remercier. Maison bien équipée (barbecue, transats, douche extérieure, lave-linge) manque quelques accessoires pour la cuisine mais rien de grave. Magnifique vue sur la mer et quand le ciel est dégagé sur les hauteurs on peut voir l'Etna. Nous avons passé une semaine comme on le souhaitait. Je recommande sans problème cette location.

About the host

Host profile image
Costanza is now retired and used to manage a Service Agency. Salvatore is a Mechanical Engineer. We both live in Turin but Salvatore has Sicilian roots and we fell in love with the magic and the history of this land. We spend most of our time now in this house and we will be happy to welcome you personally. Costanza looks after the large and beautiful garden surrounding the house; she also enjoys revisiting old Sicilian cooking recipes. Salvatore manages the citrus garden and the Avocado plantation. When he is free he likes biking, skiing on the slopes of Etna and sailing his own little fishing boat, located in the nearby Riposto harbor. We have friends visiting from all over Italy and we love sharing our happy time here with them. We have two dogs but they have their own playing field.
