Etna Vistas' Guestbook


Back to Etna Vistas

Hi there,

Etna Vistas Hotel was very good. Excellent staff. The hotel is a calm and quiet haven given a busy local area. It is a hidden gem with a good view of Mt. Etna.

Was recommend to a wonderful restaturant by Etna Vistas staff. 'La Spiga', located in Altarello di Giarre - 10 min drive from the Etna Vistas Hotel. Excellent home made food and huge portions -- we went 2x while visiting the local area, friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

We visited Mt. Etna during mid - April. The cable car wasn't working bcs it was too windy so we took the tour bus up to the top. We stopped along the way to hire heavier coats as we were dressed inappropriately. When we got to the top there were winds about 50 mph and tried to follow the tour guide. Unfortunately it was too windy, cold and scary for an 8 and 10 year old. I would suggest those who are planning to go to the top of Mt Etna ask about the wind speed and/or weather conditions at the top before spending about 35 euros per person for the ride up.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,
Therese C.
