Deliciosa! It was lovely to come back from a day's sightseeing,and be able to go and make a cup of tea or coffee in the... More

Sotto Il Vucano is an ideal base to explore Mount Etna. The town of Nicolosi is only less than 15km away from Refugio Sapienza. The Owners offer exceptionally warm hospitality. The rooms are simple, rustic with comfy beds. The heater worked perfectly to keep the room warm at night. Breakfast is excellent and has a good selection of choices and... More

This was our 4th stay in a years time and definitely there will be many more times Antonella and Salvo make you feel more than at home.The breakfast is superb everything freshly baked and the jams are more than delicious,not to mention the pistacchio croissants.If staying in nicolosi sotto il volcano is the place to stay .

We had a wonderful stay at the self-catering Apartment very close to the B&B with private parking and full amenities including Central Heating- the hosts (same as of the B&B) were very sweet and made sure that our stay was comfortable, which it was. The children really enjoyed having an 'attic' bedroom all to themselves with a view of Mount... More

could not have picked a better place to stay especially for Mt Etna. The management went above and beyond to provide the best service I have even known in a place. Antonella is like a mother hen making sure all her chicks are safe and having a good time. We could contact her any time and she would advise us... More

Our stay at Sotto il Vulcano was simply perfect, friendly owners, clean rooms, warm atmosphere, excellent breakfast, located few minutes from Nicolosi centre and mount Etna. Difficult to find without GPS so I recommend following one to get there without trouble :) I already miss the warm pistachio croissant, and freshly squeezed Sicilian oranges!
