Agira Museum of Material Culture Hotels

"Absolutely lovely and comfortable home just out of town. A 200 year old villa fully restored on property that includes gardens. The owner was very gracious and efficient and the breakfast was amazing. It takes about 7 minutes to go to the town center in car. Note that the road to town and to the house are tight so go slow and drive carefully."

"We spent a wonderful week this March at Podere dell’Etna Segreta, and the experience was truly unforgettable. Even with a touch of winter still in the landscape, the beauty and tranquillity of the estate are felt the moment you pass through the gate and approach the main house. Each room has its own fireplace, with wood thoughtfully provided, adding warmth and charm to the peaceful setting. Above the estate, Etna in Bianco dominates the sky, while the view from the villa’s terrace offers a breathtaking panorama of the landscape below. What makes the place truly special is the care and passion of the Grasso family and their dedicated team, who make you feel more like a guest of the family than a visitor. The chef’s creations are exceptional, making every meal a memorable experience, with new dishes already being meticulously planned for the summer season. All of this gives us the perfect reason to return in summer—to see the podere in a completely different light: vineyards heavy with grapes awaiting the right moment for the vendemmia, olive trees full of fruit, and the joy of dining al fresco on the beautiful terrace whilst taking in the beautiful surroundings. Grazie di cuore a Mario (Poet and Boss), Costanza (the Wife), Lorenzo (Chef), Gabriele and Jack (extremely dedicated staff). A presto"

"Everything was clean and Luciano was very welcoming.The breakfast was excellent with lots of choices of things to eat plus great coffee."

"The room was very clean and updated. This property would be great in the summer. There was a bus tour in the main hotel so we stayed in the nice outer building. Quiet but took a long time to get hot water"

"Great hotel. Very nice staff. "

"Amazing host…beautiful historic building and rooms. Felt like a truly Italian experience. "

"The views around the property are fantastic. Etna as your backdrop. Very clean and staff are nice. "

"This is an oasis of quiet. An old farmhouse, beautifully appointed. They will make dinner and breakfast for you. There is a lovely restaurant-bar area. You can walk a little ways in the woods. There is a pool. It was a relief to spend two nights here away from the cities. The mt etna park is just 23km away. Perfect!"

"Great stay at this place. The rooms are modern, clean and well equipped. The pool area is nice for a small boutique resort, but the best part was the on site restaurant. Breakfast was amazing with cooked options and a very comprehensive continental selection (sweet and savoury). Please do yourself a favour and visit the restaurant at night as well and go for the five course menu, every dish was very tasty and the dish sizes are generous. Overall, would totally recommend "
