Came here with my husband for our wedding anniversary and we had a lovely experience is Cassa de montabalno. Maria the housekeeper was amazing. Very helpful friendly and when we arrived we had to organise a Covid test. She organised it with the help of Ivana and we were very happy that they helped us. Maria was a source of information and arranged us to go on a day tour on a Montabalno Day Tour with Nunzio the taxi driver. We had a wonderful day. I would highly recommend this b&b to anyone who loves the tv show. Only negative was we missed the season and not many restaurants were open but we didn’t starve. We bought our food in the local shop and ate on the balcony in the evening. Thank you for having us!

Summer or Winter, Monterosso displays her beauty in her own seasonal style. I really enjoy the island and would love to spend at least a week there some day.

I had a great day visiting Mount Etna, learning about the history of the volcano, and previous eruptions. I also enjoyed a wine tasting and tour of a winery. A delicious light lunch was also included, but for me the highlight could have tasting a selection of delicious honeys! Paola my guide was fantastic., and I was the only client,, so it was great to have my own personal guide. I would definitely recommend this tour.
