What guests say

Reviews highlight the warm hospitality and availability of the hosts, particularly Sonia, who offers helpful tips to guests. The property is modern, spotlessly clean, and set in a peaceful lemon grove with stunning views of Mount Etna. Rooms are spacious, comfortable, and often feature private patios. Guests appreciate the abundant and homemade breakfasts, including fresh cakes and citrus jams. The serene setting and swimming pool make for a relaxing stay. While the property is a bit secluded, it’s ideal for those seeking relaxation and is conveniently located for visiting Taormina and other attractions (a car is recommended).

Property immersed in the countryside with a view of Etna. An experience to be repeated, with a spacious, clean and comfortable room. Very comfortable bed, spacious bathroom, small private patio.

Great place: clean, quiet, with a view of Mount Etna, surrounded by lemon trees. Sonia and her husband are amazing people, thanks to their valuable advice we were able to easily visit Taormina. It was a pity to have spent only one night here.

We stayed one night at this property not far from Taormina. The location is very suggestive with a privileged view of Mount Etna, surrounded by lemon trees, suitable for escaping the chaos and noise of the city. Sonia is very kind and attentive to every need of her guests. Highly recommended!

A tranquil and very charming B&B with only a few rooms and Sonia and her husband as perfect hosts (providing very good and helpful recommendations), wonderfully located house in an area with lemon trees and a view of the mountains and Etna! Relaxing pool and breakfast area, comfortable rooms with private bathrooms and options to sit outside in the evening, everything very clean and modern - the property is a bit outside at the end of a little gravel road - a car is needed. We had a perfect time.

Very warm welcome and quiet and idyllic setting. Very clean and well-appointed place. The only downside is not having the possibility to prepare small meals in the kitchen. This is really regrettable.

The answer from the host:
Merci Marion, je suis désolé de vous décevoir en ne pouvant préparer les repas en cuisine mais malheureusement j'ai eu quelques mauvaises expériences dans le passé, tout le monde ne comprend pas ce qu'est le respect donc, désolé, mais je ne peux pas vous laisser n'utilise plus la cuisine. Sonia

We spent a wonderful time at B&B SoLe in Trappitello! The swimming pool has a splendid view of Mount Etna. We are very close to Catania, Taormina, and many other activities. This is a relaxing and peaceful place. Sonia is very adorable and everything went well :) Thank you so much.

Sonia and her husband welcomed us in a fantastic way and we immediately felt 'at home'. The information they provided facilitated our visit to our points of interest. The structure is very welcoming, very clean and tastefully restored, in an optimal position to move quickly towards the centers and at the same time enjoy the tranquility immersed in lemon plantations.

Feeling at home! Clean, comfortable and well-kept environment! And then finding yourself immersed in nature just a step away from many attractions is priceless, a compliment to the friendly and helpful owners.

The excellence of a B&B managed as best as possible by Sonia and her husband, and those citrus jam for breakfast produced by them: alone they are worth a thousand good reasons to stay at this splendid property. We thank them very much also for how they managed to convey to us the love for their splendid land.

alberto

I spent 5 wonderful days in this establishment.\n\nBeautiful location (in an orchard), quiet but "two steps" from the sea and the highway exit (unique convenience for those who, like us, enjoy moving around to visit places sometimes far from the lodging point. Extremely kind and caring managers, as we have never found before. Breakfast "served" (few B&Bs offer it) and rich in quality.\n\nSpacious rooms, very clean and well-equipped. Impossible to find a single flaw in the structure and general hospitality.

We had some trouble finding it, but a superb house in a lemon field. Too bad the pool is not open (maybe due to the weather?).

Common area with refrigerator and freezer available and breakfast in the porch overlooking the lemons, Etna, and the pool.

New and very pleasant structure inside an orchard/lemon grove, spacious and clean rooms, excellent breakfast (homemade jams are great) with a view of Mount Etna, kind and helpful owners. We went in June and had a great time, also the temperature is perfect because it cools down in the evening.\n\nIn conclusion: highly recommended!\n\nBarbara & Andrea.

Excellent, we were very well welcomed. Our hosts are really very friendly, pleasant, and welcoming. The setting is beautiful among the lemon trees and in a quiet location not very far by car from tourist sites. The room is clean and modern, and the breakfast varied and plentiful with excellent homemade lemon and orange jam! We had a great time. I recommend.

We stayed for just one night, passing through, with the family and we had a great time. Excellent welcome from the owner Leonardo. Very convenient location to visit the most beautiful places on that side of Sicily. If I were to pass through those areas again, I would definitely stay there again.

fabiola

We were greeted by the efficiency and friendliness, never intrusive, of Mrs. Sonia and her husband. The structure is new, very clean and well-kept, truly immersed in an extensive lemon garden. The breakfast is good, with a fresh cake made by Sonia every day. Obviously, homemade citrus fruit jams are not missing. We recommend it, even for families with children, like ours.

House very quiet in a lemon orchard, located at the back of the seaside resort of Giardini-Naxos (very Italian) and 5 minutes from Taormina (very international resort). The house is very well located to visit Etna, its best vineyards, the gorges of Alcantara and the beaches of the region. It is also easy by highway to visit Catania, Syracuse or Piazza Armerina. Enjoy breakfast to question Mr. Alessandro about your plans in the area.

A wonderful place to stay surrounded by lemon trees. Our room overlooked Mount Etna. It was just magical. The place was very clean and well-equipped, even with a kitchen one might be able to use to prepare some meals. Sonia, Leonardo, and their children were really sweet and did everything possible to make our stay very pleasant. Leonardo speaks excellent French and Sonia speaks English. We felt really 'dumb' not being able to communicate more in their language. Do go there, you will not be disappointed. For sure, if we happen to go to the area again, we will stay at their place. Of course, we were there at the very end of April, so it was very quiet. We were the only 'guests' on the 2 nights we spent there. I bet summer must be busier.

sonia

Ladies and gentlemen, if you ever have the chance to spend a few days as guests of Sonia and Leonardo, you will remember it forever. They are absolutely delightful people, capable of managing and dealing with customers, providing all the necessary privacy, never intrusive but present for any need. Every time I go to Sicily, one of my favorite stops is them, immersed in a lemon grove, surrounded only by nature with a view of Etna. My husband and I met them and they helped us organize our wedding right there with Sonia and Leonardo. The cakes baked every morning by Sonia are excellent, but the icing on the cake is represented by the citrus marmalade that is served every morning for breakfast. A little paradise, certainly not by the sea, but believe me, it has nothing to envy to a five-star hotel.
