I Rustici Resort  

Perched in Trecastagni, this resort sits a few minutes' drive from Mount Etna and the Sanctuary of the holy martyrs Alfio, Filadelfio and Cirino. The Butterfly House and Catania Port are also close by, and Via Etnea is under a 20‑minute drive — perfect for day trips and wine tours.

A small 9-room resort with air-conditioned rooms, flat-screen TVs and private bathrooms stocked with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Rooms can include irons or extra beds on request and housekeeping runs daily. The property feels relaxed and local — walkable to Trecastagni’s center, with a terrace and garden to soak in Etna views.

Soak in a seasonal outdoor pool, ping-pong for a quick match, or unwind on the terrace and in the garden. There’s a poolside bar and a main bar/lounge, plus tour and ticket assistance to plan Mount Etna excursions. Expect simple, sensory moments — fresh mountain air and easy poolside drinks.

Complimentary wireless Internet is available across the property. Free self-parking and luggage storage make arrivals and departures smooth; the front desk operates with limited hours.

Regional flavors star at Rossolava, the on-site restaurant and bar, while a coffee shop/café and snack bar/deli keep things casual. Grab a drink at the poolside bar after a day exploring Etna and nearby vineyards.
