"Very warm welcome from helpful and friendly owner who helped us with local advice throughout our stay (including sourcing covid tests for flights). Spacious, clean 2bed, 2 bathroom, plus kitchen apartment perfect for our family of 5 as a base to explore the island. "
"Very nice place to stay in Caltagirone. Few minutes walk to the main streets and all the restaurants. Parking was very easy nearby. The host was very friendly. Room was good sized, only complaint about some ants but nothing too bad. Good value for the price for sure, would recommend!"
"Lovely to be greeted promptly by the helpful owner who answered our question about getting to the bus station on foot and later replied quickly about how to use the gas hob.
Our time in the property was very short so we didn't even get to try what looked like a fantastic shower.
Great location. It really was only a minute to the sights quoted."
"Enjoyable stay in an old grand palazzo. Could do with a bit of work eg clean the fridge and lower the temperature. Basic had some drainage issues. But very central. Helpful host. Recommend."
"10/10 stay. 5 star review. The B&B is in a great location with beautiful views and gardens. The people here are kind, empathetic and truly go out of the way to make you feel at home. Grateful for my stay here. Highly recommend. Beautiful and peaceful town and location with great view. "
"L’hôte nous a offert un appartement au lieu d’une chambre sans frais supplémentaire en plus de pouvoir stationner gratuitement dans la cour intérieure. Ce fut très apprécié car il est pratiquement impossible de trouver un stationnement dans ce coin de la ville "
"The perfect place to stay - perfect room, perfect large, hot shower, perfect food, perfect hospitality for a perfect price !!!!! Bellisimo - Bellisimo - Bellisimo !!!!! Sometimes bigger hotel can have kind of cold staff - the folks at Villa San Mauro are like the perfect family - they were awesome !!!!"
"This rental was not as advertised. Old food left in fridge and cabinets. Overwhelming smoke smell in apartment that was supposed to be non smoking. Bed linens were stained. Mattress was old and uncomfortable. Dishwasher door missing and inside very dirty. Not worth the money we paid at all. "
"Loradonna is an amazing host, her cooking was amazing, and almost all from the property. The location is absolutely gorgeous. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer. Ci vediamo al prossimo, loradonna! "
"The room was clean and comfortable. However, the breakfast room was not in the complex, but had to cross the road . There is NO parking in the hotel, and difficult in the street. Breakfast was very ,very basic."
"Beautiful location and stunning building, only ourselves and the owners there on our two night stay. Lovely staff. Friendly owners. Unfortunately the room was pretty tired and bathroom needed a good overall. Old marked shower enclosure. Crumbling walls round the shower unit. Shower coming away from wall and mould round taps. Also a ton of ants in and around bathroom. Tissue box full of them.
Breakfast which was included was poor. Very old looking tomato and cucumber slices and tbh v little...

"Lovely, small property near (1km) beaches. Small hotel equals small staff, but they try to meet your needs. Would recommend for quiet couples vacation."
"Lovely property and the lovely and charming Rita makes a great breakfast. Her son offer transport whenever I needed as I had no car. The distance to town and the mosaics was perfect."
"Could not have been better. A fabulous experience.
Setting and property stunning, staff and facilities excellent. Food and wine to die for. Not the cheapest, but worth every Euro!
