Frequently asked questions
The practical details, from check-in to cancellation. Anything else, just ask.
How can I book?
Whichever way suits you. Message Alessia on WhatsApp at +39 347 388 2090, send us your dates with the form on this page, or find many of our homes on Booking.com and Airbnb.
Every request gets a personal reply before anything is confirmed.
What time are check-in and check-out?
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is by 10:00.
How does self check-in work?
Our homes have 24/7 self check-in, so a late flight is no problem. Before you arrive we send video tutorials that show you exactly how to get in, and we are on WhatsApp if you need us.
For the Noto villas, we confirm the arrival arrangements with you before you travel.
What are the house rules?
- No smoking inside.
- No parties.
- No pets.
- Please sort your waste and follow the collection days.
Each home has the collection calendar and the bins you need. We send you the exact drop-off point by WhatsApp or email. Fines can apply when waste is left out on the wrong day.
Is there parking?
Our homes have no private parking. You can park on the street: some spaces are free, and the blue lines are paid. There are also paid garages nearby.
Can we leave our luggage somewhere?
Yes. Stow your bags at Via Antonino Mancini 22, 95131 Catania, is about five minutes from our city homes. It is run by a third party, not by us.
What is the cancellation policy?
- Free cancellation up to 15 days before arrival.
- From 14 days to 24 hours before arrival: 30% of the booking value.
- Less than 24 hours before arrival: the full amount.
Can you pick us up from the airport?
Yes. We arrange transfers from Catania airport and from the train and bus station, priced for the whole group. See Getting here below.
Can you arrange excursions?
Yes. We work with Etna Tribe for guided excursions on Mount Etna. Have a look at our Etna excursions and ask us for prices for your group.
