Lovely location and great wine
We really enjoyed staying here - a very peaceful place with great wine! The food was unfortunately not as impressive so maybe try another restaurant...

This vineyard spa is a real haven. The buildings are contemporary yet blend in the the surrounding vineyard fields. The staff delight in showing their wines. A real respite from the tourist bustle elsewhere.

We went on a tour of Sicily in May 2025, and only spent one night at Dimora Cottanera - but it was our favourite stay of the vacation!
The grounds and the views were stunning, the facilities first-class and our room was amazing.
But the absolute highlight was the wine tasting, which was so much fun and incredible value. The food we had was delicious and complemented the wine superbly. And our host, Salvo, made the experience so special.
We absolutely loved our limited time at Dimora Cottanera and would book again in a heartbeat!

We loved our stay at Dimora Cottanera! The room was immaculate, with elegant touches and beautiful views. The staff was warm and helpful - truly a highlight of your stay! The location itself was beyond lovely - situated amongst the vineyards, peaceful, and easy driving to Mt. Etna. Parking was convenient - a small lot across the road from the property. Would happily stay again!

An amazing facility. The staff was attentive and caring without be overbearing. The food is delicious and the location is super. Our room was of adequate size and the amenities were wonderful. They had a secure location for our bicycles which is appreciated.
Only minor glitch was that the hot tub is a bit cool for my preference. Not a big deal at all.
I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great stay surrounded by nature and warmth
It exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine courtesy and care. The free room upgrade was a lovely surprise. Our room was spacious, well-designed and incredibly comfortable. No TV though. One of the highlights was enjoying a glass of Cottanera wine with pinsa and a platter in the vineyard at sunset. It was a magical and unforgettable experience. Breakfast was plentiful with a good variety and we appreciated the electric car charging point. Such a thoughtful touch for modern travellers. Overall, it was a beautiful one night stay marked by attention to detail and heartfelt hospitality. Highly recommended.

Fabulous stay
We had a fabulous night and couple of days at Dimora Cottenera. The hotel itself is beautiful, rooms are designed to perfection and the staff were so friendly and accommodating! Our suite had an incredible cave shower and outdoor bath. Breakfast is second to none with freshly cooked egg dishes and an array of homemade cakes and pastries along with fantastic coffee! The unmatched views of Mount Etna and the surrounding vineyards make it extra special. Highly recommend a tour of the vineyard too if you have time. A real slice of heaven, we can’t wait to come back!

It was in a beautiful setting with vineyards and gardens throughout. The breakfast with eggs individually made and homemade cakes and desserts were phenomenal. There’s a special large communal room with glass views all around with views of the mountains. Bed was very comfortable and bathroom unique. Free parking with charging stations were right across the street. As outstanding as the facilities and grounds were the staff was better. From calling pharmacies to arranging tours to recommending hikes. They gladly did it all. At night they had a different homemade cake and coffee available. I had wonderful experiences at other resorts on this trip but Dimora Cottanera was the best. Grazie
