The location is a bit out of the way, but it has the advantage that you don’t have to fight your way out of a built-up area to get to where you want to go. A good base for exploring Mt Etna.
Used the pool, but to be honest in April it was still too cool to stay in for long.

It is very nice house, all around is lemon garden and orange trees, it has a nice pool and a bar where you can drink and eat. The lady of the house is hospitable, polite, helpful. Rooms are big enough and clean. Location is good if you have a car and plan to go arround. If you just plan to chillout and go to the beach it is also a good option. Dinner in a restaurant was really good.

The host is very friendly and helpful almost instantly even to explain how to turn on a cooker. The view from the terrace is wonderful and all you need is within circa 10 minutes, the beach a bit farther. I would like to repeat!

The property itself was lovely and the garden and swimming pool area was well maintained. Sara provided an incredible breakfast of the most beautiful croissants /pastries freshly delivered everyday! The rooms are comfortable and the layout is perfect for families and groups alike - a large kitchen, with everything you need to cook and eat, including a great dining table for meals - then a separated lounge/living area to relax in the evening. There is also a massive table outside - front and back- for breakfast, in the sun or shade (your choice) and lots of garden furniture to enjoy. There's even a conservatory/snug for those wanting to read quietly or chill.

Yes, the apartment is slightly outdated, but based on the very competitive price it is great place! Everything is clean, check-in is 24/7 (key in the box) so very convenient if traveling through cities, owner left nice gifts and water to enjoy, also there is an espresso mashine as well as tea. Seems quite authentic apartment, the block and city itself which did not look as tourist attraction, but definitely has some nice features like amazingly long straight streets. And we did not expect to see Michael Jordan’s yacht staying at the docks.

Riposto is a nice location to stay on the east side of Silily. You must have a car to get around. It is convenient to visit other village near by. We only sleep in Riposto and spent most time during days in other villages near by. Other than the hotel facility, there isn't much to do around this area.

The town of Riposto truly has a hidden charm. A cutting-edge tourist port, a historic center that can be explored on foot, a very long seafront where it is possible to do physical activity. Excellent Sicilian food and folklore

Beautiful little coast and port town overwatched by Etna and the see. There is so much good food both in markeds and in restaurant. I really recommend this town and nearby Giarre with great shopping alternatives.

I liked the Sicilian atmosphere, the friendly people, the gastronomy, the panorama of Mount Etna and the harbor.
We used the train connection to Catania and Taormina, which is very convenient and reliable.

Riposto offers a great base if you want to visit Taormina and Catania. It's a small town with a number of eateries, local shops etc, away from all the tourists. There is no beach apart from a stretch of shingle just outside the town, but you can swim and snorkel here. It's not somewhere you would want to go for a beach holiday or entertainment, but great for a quiet base to tour from.
The place is amazing at all. Our room was very big and super clean. The bathroom was very well decorated with quality finishes. However, the best part of the property is the garden. This was the most beautiful and peaceful garden I have ever seen and they serve breakfast there. The hosts were very polite. They provided a lot of information about everything we can do in the region and gave us tips on where to park, where not to go, etc. The breakfast was amazing. There was a small parking space behind the gates and it was enough for everyone.
I stayed here for two nights in September with my wife. Maria and Giuseppe were really welcoming. They made us feel at home guiding us through the choices of good restaurants and wine cellars around Riposto.
The Villa is charming, with clean and comfortable rooms and with an amazing view on Etna Volcano. From Riposto it is possible to reach in few kilometers several points of interest (e.g. Etna, Taormina, Catania, Acireale).

Only sweet breakfast was available but considering the Italian culture and Covid restrictions it is understandable. The lady who welcomed us was extremely friendly and even waited for us after the check-in hours when our train was late. I definitely recommend this place and the whole city of Giarre-Riposto, especially comparing to dirty and smelly Catania. Public beaches are pretty nice.
We liked the hosts very much. They met us and showed around. The appartment was very clean with spaceous and comfortable terrace. The car parking was inside the yard behind the gates, so we were comfortable about the car's safety. A washing machine was very handy. There are many restaurants and grocery shops around. Riposto itself is close to Etna, that is why we cose to stay there.
The owners of Palazzo Rosso made us feel really welcome. The garden is beautiful with a big pool, a lot of lemon and fruit trees and a small playground area.
Palazzo Rosso is also a fish restaurant and it was really nice to have dinner downstairs and be in a few minutes in our room. Our small one also enjoyed it there very much and at end of our stay, she didn't want to leave.
The apartament was big, with beautiful view at Etna, equipped with climatic old furnitures. Well placed, close to the nice restaurant and a beach. Small present from the host and many advices what to visit, e.g local wine event in Milo. The host was very communicative, always helpful. Apartament was very clean. Big plus for parking place behind closed gate and a lift.
if you have your own transport it’s a great centralized location to some of the main sights of this area such as Taormina and Mount Etna. The hotel is clean and comfortable and the rooms looking towards the sea have a great view. The breakfasts are varied and generous. I fully recommend staying at this hotel if you want to stay in this beautiful part of Sicily.
Peaceful, beautiful, and with incredible staff. The hotel is surrounded by lovely gardens and we could see lava flowing down Etna from our room. Staff were so nice and even pressed by husband's shirt when they noticed it was wrinkled. The restaurant was really good. Breakfast was the best I had in Sicily and many locals come in for a nice dinner.
The hotel’s garden is truly beautiful, the whole resort is in great condition and the personal is very nice.
According to our previous experiences in Italy there were usually some sewage smell in the bathroom (clogged drains?) but here was none.
One could never get tired of the view of the Etna and the see.
The staff is absolutely amazing and caring. Special thanks to Evelyn and Elena who pampered us, always with a smile and sweet words! Thank you! Colleagues at reception were also extremely nice and helpful! Great attention to details throughout the hotel and by its staff! Grazie mile! Matt & Dario
It is amazingly clean and well equipped in a silent area of the city. The family who runs it are making everything possible to make you feel comfortable. My room was everyday cleaned and they even picked and dropped me off the station due to bad weather. They deserve stars of many hotels!
The hotel is located next to the sea with the best view on Etna and the biutiful church. Staff are really nice and helpful people and the lady speaks English and Russian. The place has a sicilian climate, and the breakfast in the nearby cafe is just outstanding!
Very cozy home with fantastic patio/courtyard area. The host is very friendly and helpful. Quiet, but central location in central Riposto with good access to the marina where I was working. Plenty of available parking in the area.
Beautiful hotel close to Taormina and Etna volcano. Large rooms, comfortable. The staff was amazing, they were available 24/7 to book restaurants and activities locally for us, which was amazing.
The best "hotel" breakfast I have ever had in my life, the pool has a view on mount Etna and lemon trees. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The whole area was just mesmerizing :)
Really comfortable room with modern utilities, the swimming pool was perfect for small groups. Shower and bathroom was perfect and the bed’s super comfy!
Perfect location for exploring the east coast of Sicily. Easy to find, lots of street parking and some cool bars and restaurants within walking distance
Clean and modern facility, great choice for a vacation in Riposto town. The staff is lovely and will make sure you are happy and your stay comfortable.
