A nice friendly place to stay.
A great place to stay, rooms were good and the view of Mt Etna was great. The host was very helpful and friendly and breakfast was very good as well. Conveniently located for the station and not too far to walk into town. Le Giare was recommended to me and I'll happily recommend it again.

Exactly what we needed
We had a wonderful stay at La Giare for a week. We were well looked after, but were left to ourselves for the most part (which was just what we needed). All our questions were answered quickly and thoroughly. Housekeeping was of a high standard every day, and our personal preferences as to bedding were noticed and taken into account which was a really nice personal touch. Breakfast was lovely every day with an array of bread, pastries, cereals, fruit and yogurt amongst other things. The views from the breakfast room/terrace were beautiful as well. Overall it was a great stay, exactly the accommodation we wanted - would definitely recommend.

pleasant stay
Visiting Sicily effectively in transit only for a couple of days and making the most of the eastern side, we positioned ourselves both for the CircumEtnea train (in our case up to Randazzo and back), just round the corner from the mainline station, and for Taormina later in the day. Preferring to stay away from pricier options further up the coast, this B&B and its location seemed a likely fit for us, especially with its highly positive rating. Again, we were not disappointed. Stella (at both desk and breakfast) was delightful to deal with. The room was smart, with its balcony view of Etna over the rooftops and from the terrace, special to see both in both evening and morning lights. Modest, tidy, comfortable accommodation. Riposto and Giarre, either side of the tracks, offered authentic, everyday Italy for those making really only a flying stop and less fixed on the fashionable and paying for it. Much enjoyed.

Solopgang og vulkan udbrud.
Super hyggelig værtinde, som var yderst hjælpsom og ydet ekstra service, ved at stille kaffe frem til os og lade dørene være åbne, så vi kunne se solopgange og udbrudet på Etna, endda 2 timer før hun normalt åbnede til tagterrassen.
