We had a very nice time at this farm. We were ten people and we stayed in the adjacent apartments. The pool is amazing and probably the best thing about this place. However, there are some issues that could be a real problem for others and we were lucky to not have it too bad. The apartments are joined at the top by a hole in the wall that is filled by a wardrobe. You can hear everything in the other apartment since there is no real wall there. Also we had limited cutlery. One good knife between two apartments and no chopping board. We had to ask for a chopping board and an additional kettle. Also we were five people in an apartment but there are four chairs. Not ideal. Lastly the beds are very very basic. That was ok for us, but might not be for others. I should also say that the wifi in the apartments is terrible! There is one router in one apartment, so the other one has hardly any signal and upstairs (where you sleep) there isn't any at all. So I wouldn't count on proper internet access. The main house is very nice but there is a train that runs right behind it. We were lucky we didn't stay near there. However, there is also an events center on the grounds right next to the apartments, so we had loud party music till 11 on many nights. Luckily our children didn't wake up from that. The breakfast is very basic and a bit stingy. You have to ask for many things like milk and extra food as they run out here and there. If you have a kitchen like in the apartments you do not need to waste money on breakfast. The pool is by far the best feature and is wonderful. The owners are quite nice, but although they accommodated our requests, they were not very happy about it, like when we asked for a kettle, they said we can boil in a pan. True, but why do the main houses get a kettle and one of the apartments and not the other one? Also, we were two groups. One group came early and was told the room would be ready at 3. We came after them and rang at the main gate. The first answer we got was "I told you the rooms are not ready". That is not the nicest way to greet someone, especially when it was clear that we can stay at the pool area till the rooms were ready. I should say that the cleaner was very nice and helpful and was the best staff member there. I have never been to any other place in Sicily, but I would not go here again. Maybe it is good compared to others in Sicily, but I was not impressed.

The place is amazing, especially if you love nature. The gardens and grounds are beautiful and very well kept and clean. Our hosts Marxia and Kristina were so welcoming and saw to our every need. The pool is so relaxing and the on-site parking in the shade was ideal. A place I would love to return to!

Place is beautiful, with a very nice panorama of trees and sea. The pool area was fantastic and it has a large garden with many trees, a children's playground, and a small farm with animals. The room was big enough for 2 adults and 2 children. Secure and free parking inside the villa. Breakfast was small but ok. We felt very welcomed and relaxed. We had no problems at all.

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno e grazie per la sua gentile recensione, spero di rivedervi presto qui da noi. Mi spiace che abbia trovato "small" la colazione offerta che, al momento, consiste in: pane di nostra produzione, biscotti al burro, biscotti al cacao, fette biscottate, marmellate di nostra produzione, miele, Nutella, burro, 3 tipi di cereali, torte di nostra produzione, yogurt, croissants, frutta fresca, macedonia di frutta, vari tipi di succo di frutta, prosciutto, formaggio, bacon, uova strapazzate o cotte su richiesta, vari tipi di latte di mucca o vegetale, oltre ovviamente a tutte le bevande calde quindi caffè, cappuccino, cioccolata, thè, etc etc

Beautiful haven of peace with a stunning view, flowered and well-kept gardens. A generous buffet with local products, homemade bread, and real orange juice.

My family (my wife, our three kids, and our little dog) and I treated ourselves to a couple of days of relaxation in the heart of Sicily. The welcome at Tenuta Santa Tecla exceeded our expectations, so much so that we gave up our itinerary of visits and excursions here and there to take full advantage of the tranquility and atmosphere of the villa. We preferred to stay by the pool to admire the magnificent marine backdrop, read a book in the shade of one of the many trees that sweeten the landscape and air, and chat with Marzia, her husband, or some of the girls who took care of us as if we were family. The welcome, in the most authentic sense of the term, is certainly the pride and joy of Tenuta Santa Tecla, not to mention the beauty and tranquility of the place, the good food, and last but not least, the unexpected and interesting library that enriches the reception. Sure, we missed out on the trendy tourist sites, but we gained a couple of relaxing, fulfilling days in great company. Highly recommended, hoping to return as soon as possible.

Very beautiful and welcoming structure located in a quiet area with enchanting scenery. A place that offers rest and tranquility. The lady is very kind, helpful, and hospitable. Excellent breakfast, abundant and with zero kilometer products. Excellent cakes and jams. A destination to try if you want to stay near Acireale.

Ideal place for those who feel the need to disconnect and indulge in some relaxation. The location is in my opinion ideal because it's close to Acireale yet at a 'safe' distance from the coming and going of cars and noise in general. The host is super kind. The cleanliness is meticulous. The breakfast deserves a special mention because the homemade jams and cakes make it over the top!! I hope to come back in the future.
