The triumph of well-being and nature: welcome to Mamma Erminia.
This magnificent property, nestled next to the extinct crater of Monte Serra (one of 300 inactive craters around Mount Etna), is a spectacular balcony overlooking the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna, with one of the most beautiful views in all of Sicily.
Mamma Erminia has a main building with a kitchen, living room, and a suite with en-suite bathrooms, a double bedroom, and another en-suite bathroom.
The annex has a kitchen, double bedroom, and bathroom.
All bathrooms have showers, and the entire house is fully furnished with new and elegant furnitures.
The kitchen of the main house opens onto a patio that in turn overlooks the beautiful garden with flowers, trees, lawns, and aromatic Mediterranean herbs.
The pool area offers an open-air panorama, complete with a BBQ area and a gazebo where you can spend unforgettable days enjoying Sicilian cuisine.
There still is a pizza-oven room just by the indoor kitchen: ready for the pizza making?
And then, you'll never forget the conical shape of the Monte Serra volcano (a small inactive crater of millions of years ago), adjacent to Mamma Erminia, an almost mystical presence, a dip in nature.
The villa is located about 2 kilometers from the town of Viagrande, about 10 kilometers from the sea and the same distance from the Etna Park.
A fabulous stay!
Bedrooms (3) e Bathrooms (3): 2 double bedrooms (one en-suite), 2 bathrooms (one en-suite) with shower in the main house; 1 bedroom en-suite (shower) in the dependance

Mamma Erminia is located in Viagrande, in Catania-Etna-Taormina area.
The beach (rocky) is 10 kilometers away in Playa (sandy) or Acitrezza and Acicastello (rocky), where you can enjoy two of the most beautiful sea villages of Sicily.
We are in the eastern side of Sicily, the homeland of Etna volcano with its very special amenities such as inactive craters (the sons of Etna), caves, forests, lava flows of the past.
The pearl of Sicily, one of the worldwide masterpieces of beauty: here it is Taormina, 30 kms, an evergreen location that has attracted people since the ancient times. Archaeology, myth, a typical Arab style architecture, amazing landscapes, a blue sea, and such a noble atmosphere, gives Taormina a unique charm. A walk in Via del Corso is an unforgettable moment to do not miss among exclusive shops, delicious restaurants and coffee, stunning views of the sea, the Greek theatre, the terrifying shape of Etna volcano on the background.
Few kilometers away from Taormina downtown, here it is one of the most beautiful place in the world: Taormina mare (Mazzarò, Spisone, Isolabella), with many lido (private beaches provided with deckchairs, restaurants, beach facilities) along the coastline.
If you planned to visit Catania, 5 kms away, I suggest you to park the car in Piazza Alcalà and from there have a walk all around the town: you can start from the worldwide famous Pescheria located in Piazza Duomo (the heart of Catania) and from it approach the Via Etnea, the main street of the town, a pedestrian street with many shops, cafe's and wonderful buldings in Baroque style. Let's walk for about a kilometer, visiting the Roman amphitheatre (in Piazza Stesicoro) until arrive to the Villa Bellini (Catania's public garden).
Syracuse, with its archeological area and the wonderful Ortigia island, is 80 kms away.
Its time to eat something and my tip is to taste the unmissable Pasta alla Norma and to enjoy, at least once, a typical Sicilian breakfast: granita and brioche!
Of course, we suggest you to enjoy our Silvana's Cooking Class, just few kilometers away from the villa.
And, of course, fish, fish, fish … and do not miss to visit some of ours outdoor fish markets
