Its position near Mount Etna makes it ideal for those keen to explore the national park; however, families will appreciate amenities designed to entertain guests of all ages. I was particularly impressed by the wellness offerings, notably the full-service spa with its Turkish bath and hot tub, a definite highlight for relaxation.”
