La raffinata struttura rispecchia l'elegante ed accogliente stile della padrona di casa. Base ideale per visitare la Sicilia orientale , mare montagna cultura emogastronomia al top. Il nostro soggiorno è stato perfetto e ci proponiamo di tornare a godere dell'ospitalità di Denise Emma e Gey

La Dimora del Castelluccio è un luogo dove è possibile vivere un’esperienza che va oltre la vacanza ed il viaggio. Finiture di pregio, mobili d’epoca ed un servizio caloroso sono solo una cornice di un luogo che si pone in una posizione strategica tra il vulcano, il parco dei Nebrodi e la costa est della Sicilia. Posta nella zona più alta del paese, la Dimora gode di una vista sensazionale sul versante nord del vulcano. Dalle finestre delle stanze è possibile scorgere viste del centro storico di uno dei borghi più belli d’Italia e del vulcano che spesso offre suggestive immagini durante i suoi periodi di attività. Denise ed il suo personale sono sempre molto attenti alle necessità dei loro ospiti e contribuiscono in ogni modo a rendere il soggiorno alla dimora del Castelluccio un’esperienza esclusiva. Definirlo B&B credo sia un po’ riduttivo, la Dimora del Castelluccio è un luogo dove è subito facile sentirsi a casa con i comfort di un hotel esclusivo.

We spent three nights in this stylish B&B, 5 stars from the beginning to the end. A family of three, we had the 2 bedrooms available and both are extremely cozy and comfortable. The suite is incredible with a very comfortable King size bed, lovely sitting area, big bathroom and huge closet, all surrounded by a terrace and balcony with direct views over the village and Mount Etna. Breakfast was delicious with fresh juice, fruits, charcuterie and the best fresh ricotta you can get in Sicily! All top notch! Our host Denise , an elegant and very welcoming italian lady, has an impecable taste for house furnishing and a great cooking hands, her orange cake is to die for! |All in all we had a fantastic time in this area and highly recommend Denise’s home / it’s a truly amazing property

What a magical place! We stayed here for four nights. It was a perfect "home base" for exploring the eastern part of Sicily. We had a parking spot that was close to the B&B and very convenient. The room was big, airy and spotless. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was huge! It has a window that opens to a beautiful view of a church and the castle. A really wonderful breakfast was served every morning on the terrance under the watchful eye of Etna. Delicious! The coffee was so good we asked for more, and every morning afterwards, a second pot was delivered without asking! Top notch service from a great staff. What a fabulous place to start your day. ||Donna Denise is the consummate hostess. She happily shared her knowledge of the town and made dinner reservations for us each night. She also arranged two wine tastings for us, both excellent. ||We were really sad when it was time to check out. Castiglione di Sicilia and La Dimora del Castelluccio were our favorite parts of our three week trip. |Thank you, Donna Denise!

If you’re hiking Etna or just plan on visiting the Sicilian coast, take a drive inland to stay at this place. It’s charming and quiet. Everything on the property has been carefully and tastefully curated by the host, Denise. She went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable.

Highly recommended!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

La Dimora Del Castelluccio is an amazing place. It's a wonderful oasis perched high atop the mountains in the lovely village of Castiglione di Sicilia. The proprietress, Denise, is the most charming lady you will ever meet. It took her 3 years to restore this beautiful place to the highest standard. It's immaculate and beautifully designed. We spent 3 nights and didn't want to leave. We had a delicious breakfast every morning on the terrace outside our huge room where we were treated to the most magnificent views of Etna and the surrounding area. Denise will recommend good restaurants for you as well as connect you to a wonderful driver, if you need one. (See my other review for Dream Service with Carmelo Sava). Castelluccio is a great base for exploring the many excellent wineries in the area as well as Taormina, which is less than 1 hour drive. You do need a car or access to a driver. Note that there are many steps to climb up to reach the property, which could be a problem for those with mobility issues. Staying at Castelluccio will leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed -- a true oasis. We will definitely return! Thank you again, Denise, for your most wonderful hospitality.

||Cette maison d’hôte luxueuse ancrée à la falaise et perchée sur les hauteurs d’un superbe village fait face à l’Etna. La vue est à couper le souffle. Un jour l’Etna est sombre, le lendemain elle a revêtu son habit de mariée. Son dôme s’est enneigé. La vue d’une des chambres, la suite, embrasse ce paysage immense, tout comme le reste de la maison et la grande terrasse où Denise propose des petits déjeuners typiques et variés. L’autre chambre offre des vues directes sur les ruines de la forteresse, le fronton et le clocher de l’église voisine, la roche qui surplombe le village. De nuit, de superbes éclairages transforment ces vues en décor de théâtre. Cette autre chambre dispose aussi d’un balcon depuis lequel on peut admirer le volcan et la vallée. C’était la nôtre et nous l’avons beaucoup aimée.||Denise a restauré cette maison avec énormément de goût. La décoration superpose les meubles anciens et l’art contemporain dans une superbe élégance italienne. Que ce soit l’accueil très convivial autour d’un verre, la générosité du petit déjeuner, le luxe raffiné des chambres, les conseils nombreux et avisés, tout est mis en œuvre par Denise pour nous offrir un séjour inoubliable.|| ||
