Lovely villa
A lovely villa. Lots of space, big bedrooms. Gorgeous outside spaces, terraces and verandas where you can find a peaceful corner, or catch the sun at different times of the day. Lovely pool. Car definitely needed.just over an hour to Etna, 10 minutes to Taormina, 50 minutes to Catania.

Lovely well equipped villa with beautiful views
Villa Ambra was a relatively easy drive from Catania airport and had everything we needed for a week's holiday. The Pool was lovely and refreshing and well maintained. The accommodation was spacious, clean and comfortable. The garden was attractive with beautiful views out over Mt Etna. It was nice having a variety of options for eating outside during different times of the day. Trappitello itself is unremarkable but has a well stocked Eurospin supermarket which was inexpensive and a couple of restaurants. Gian Franco's s Steakhouse were very welcoming and friendly with great food and wine, so much so we ate there twice and were greeted as friends. So far as excursions are concerned, Taormina is a must (we parked at Porto Catania carpark after reading hideous reviews about the vehicle clearance at Lumbi parking). Siracusa/Ortigia and the centre of Catania were lovely. Savoca is worth a visit and has connections with the Godfather film. We also did a 4x4 sunset tour of Mt Etna which was very enjoyable. The only negatives were that there were some dogs in a neighboring property which barked constantly. I wonder whether the owner might have a word with the neighbour? Some of the pool loungers were a bit worse for wear and getting the car into the designated space was very tricky. But overall we loved the property and would recommend it.

Very comfortable villa in a beautiful setting
The villa is set in a very attractive garden with an extensive patio area around the pool. There is plenty of shade throughout the day and lots of seating with wonderful views of Mount Etna. The house itself is spacious and comfortably furnished with a well appointed kitchen and a second outdoor (but covered) kitchen area that also has a barbecue. The whole property is well maintained and had been well cleaned when we arrived. Piero was very welcoming on our arrival and special mention must be made of Orazio who was unfailingly helpful with his suggestions and who accompanied us to a pharmacy at 8.30 on a Sunday morning to help with translation.
