Armando's home is a perfect base for visiting Etna. It's a short drive away from the Etna South cable car station. The friendly and helpful host gives all information about options to visit the volcano park (without trying to sell any guided tours etc, which is a pleasant surprise at this sort of a location) and other places of interest. The house has a nice view to the sea (and the top of Etna in good weather).
The private bathroom outside of the room is indeed private, but it's actually outside of the room ;) The shared kitchen is also fine when you're the only guests, but if there's another party in the house it could be suboptimal.

Armando is great. Very helpful, friendly. Our room was small, but we just slept there anyway. In addition, there is a kitchen and a terrace. As we were in low season we had the bathroom to ourselves, but I think it would have been shared otherwise. The house is on the upper edge of the village, it has a large terrace with a great view. The room was clean and has heating and air conditioning. Free street parking. Breakfast was good, especially the home baked vegetable scones. Armando makes excellent coffee. We had great homemade yogurt and tangerine jam, about three kinds of sweet cakes, coffee, juice... But we are used to eggs, ham and cheese, we missed that a bit. Armando is happy to help with planning. A very nice stay indeed.

We felt welcome from the moment we arrived - Armando already waited and helped us with parking. The room was a little cold (but we had a long flight behind us and were tired, cold was gone by mirning), but super clean, cozy and quiet. Easy to find and the view from the terrace was amazing. Armando was kind enough to give us good advice how to reach Etna and which part of it to see.
We enjoyd every moment.

Armando's enormous hospitality and charisma was a true highlight of our stay. His passion for his region and culture was absolutely inspiring and helped us to learn more about Sicily. The house was stylish and well-maintained with a beautuful big terrace (offering a lovely panorama!) that was a wonderful extension of the indoor space, perfect for relaxation. Armando was not only a great host, but also an amazing chef. Breakfast was simply amazing, tasty and fresh, we loved that he used local and seasonal ingredients from his garden to make it. We would highly recommend staying at At Armando's Home to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Sicily. With Armando's hospitality, cosy apartments, and delicious breakfast, you're sure to have an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Armando! Hope to come back and give another try to hike Mount Etna if the weather permits!
We wish we could have stayed longer

Armando is a nice man, he met us and explained everything about the trip to Mt. Etna. The next morning he came to prepare a nice breakfast for us and we enjoyed the view from the balcony in the dining room. The house is very big, we had 2 rooms, 2 baths and the kitchen for our family of 5 people. Inside the rooms there was a heater to warm the air, tea and coffee, even slippers.
Don't remember anything we dislike.

It was our best stay in Sicily, we made a mistake when we booked only one night at Armando's Home. If we ever return to Sicily, we will make sure to stay in this place for a longer period of time.The room and the bathroom was big and comfortable. The terassa is great and the view from here was amazing . Parking is free in front of the house and on the street. Armando took care of us during our entire stay and made us the best breakfast in Sicily. Thank You, Armando! Our best wishes!!!

The house is in a very quiet neighbourhood, overlooking the bay. It is very clean, room is spacious with a fridge and there is even a kitchen that can be used. Armando's is very very helpful and sweet and even gave us a lift to another city because there was no other connection. He also makes the delicious breakfast in the morning and even packed us some of the goodies to take with us. Would definitely recommend!

Armando is a great guy, very welcoming and super friendly. He gave us lots of information about the area. His recommendations where to eat at night were great and we had exceptional dinners thanks to him. Very nice breakfast and you can park the car right in front. Great place to discover the Etna area. Thanks again for the wonderful stay 🤗

Armando is a host with body, soul and heart. The large terrace offers a view of the sea, the rooms have everything you need (including coffee, care products...) and - which is absolutely brilliant in February - heating. It was the perfect stay and we will book with Armando again next time. Without a car, you shouldn't mind having to walk a bit.

Armando is probably the nicest host we've ever had. He gave us great recommendations for places to visit, while being super kind and welcoming. For breakfast he baked and cooked an incredible menu and even gave us food to take for our journey. The flat is pretty and very clean with an incredible view to the meditaranian sea. Really, it's a no brainer to stay there if you want to visit etna, since by car you only need like 30min to refugio sapienza. Armando, big hug.
