    Nothing to dislike, everything was perfect!

    The property is magical. We stayed for one night but wished to have stayed longer. The facilities are all brand new and top quality. Honestly the pictures don’t match the beauty of this place. The breakfast was also delicious and the staff where incredibly friendly. We hope we can come back one day!

    This was our last stop on a 10 days trip to Sicily and this property was by far the best we stayed at. The staff was fantastic and went over and beyond to make our stay the best. The property itself is breathtaking, we used the gym, had a massage, and even walked thru the vineyard in the morning. There are many restaurants within 10-15 min drive which made it convenient. We will be back for sure when we return to Sicily.

    The hotel lacks guest relations. My husband decided to surprise me by upgrading to a 'suite' since it was our anniversary and my birthday ... before booking a suite please note that the family rooms are on top of the suites... We had a sleepless night as a family checked in and they decided to move furniture from 10pm - midnight- we heard the children running and we could hear the baby crying. We messaged the hotel as no one is onsite at that hour they sent a text apologizing but the noise continued - The next day the hotel staff apologized and decided to 'apologize' by sending a bottle of wine. - In my honest opinion, more could have been done when you're paying 300eur per night. We had a coffee machine and capsules. But the complementary bottle of water was only given once on check in - I've never been to a hotel in Sicily where they didn't give you a bottle of water daily (usually they give you both still and sparkling water) ... Although you could take from the common areas (which close at 7pm) Note - we could have purchased drinks from the mini bar at excessive prices (suites we usually stay at have a complimentary mini bar) Although the room was spacious, it lacked a full length mirror (hence ending up going to the bathroom to check yourself before you're dressed. There wasn't a Tv in the room (although it didn't make a difference to us) Lack of lightning near the wardrobe - so we had to use our mobile phone torch in that area. The fridge overheated and drinks were not cooled properly. Just a note - it would have been nice if the hotel could have sent a small cake or some pastries to compliment the free bottle of wine that was given for our anniversary/ birthday.

    The property is an old winery which has been recently turned into a 'hotel'. The views are amazing and the place is peaceful (up to a certain extent) The breakfast is amazing and they have a private chef cooking fresh eggs and also cakes. The spa consists of a sauna leading to an outdoor jacuzzi/hot tub and a beautiful outdoor pool. The electric car charger was definitely a plus for our visit. The suites have your own private outdoor tub which was definitely awesome. Everywhere closed by gates ...the property felt very safe. Don't miss out on the wine tasting...we had a very nice guide explaining everything and answered every question we had. The property was spotless!

    The only (extremely minor!) improvement we would suggest would be to make it more obvious where the hotel parking is. Perhaps with a sign or similar!

    Dimora Cottanera is a rare find of a hotel. The service is exceptional and cannot be faulted. We informed the staff of our anniversary before arrival - they kindly upgraded us to a room with a private outdoor tub and a beautiful bunch of flowers. The pool has stunning views of the mountains, and the food is unmatched. We particularly enjoyed the “apéritivo hour” and the hotel kindly booked wine tasting and an Etna trek for us.

    Nothing, it was perfect

    From arrival to (sadly) departure, we were welcomed with open arms and really made to feel comfortable. The property is exceptionally clean, and the staff are very attentive. There are outstanding views of Etna and the surrounding area. You can even head on up to the winery for an intimate wine tasting, if that tickles your fancy. All round - perfect

    Very cut off with narrow winding roads to get to the property.

    Staff were great, especially Selena who was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. The room was spacious and very clean and the views were to die for! The breakfast was also lovely with a multitude of different sweet and savory freshly baked goods every morning.

    No option to use the jacuzi in winter and we needed a reservation for the sauna. Also the time to visit the cellar was a bit too limited.

    Lack of communication about our wine tasting arrangements.. Better information and an email response to our booking request would have meant we would not have missed our anticipated wine tasting. Tastings are on a rigid set time for the day.

    How a minor checkin problem was handled with professional ease. Wonderful breakfast and staff... comfortable beds....and the winter room nestled in the vineyard for our morning coffee and sunset glass of wine....and of course the vineyatd's wine. Close to a historic village and great restaurants.
