We have just returned from a wonderful stay at Villa Galati. Our apartment was beautifully clean and tidy on arrival, comfortable, well equipped, and, being air conditioned, was cool when we needed to escape the midday sun! Despite a late arrival, we were given an informative welcome and tour of our accommodation as well as important info about the pool, etc! We particularly loved our balcony overlooking the pool and affording superb views of Mount Etna. The pool and grounds were exceptionally clean and well presented. Our request to stay after the agreed checkout time was quickly agreed upon, allowing us to make the most of our last day before returning to the airport. Queries sent before our arrival were swiftly answered. Thank you, we would happily recommend Villa Galati and would love a return visit!

Spotless apartment, nicely refurbished with new furniture. Great, clean, large pool. The apartment is very close to the beach. And of course, the breathtaking Etna view from our large terrace. The garden is very nice with olive and lemon trees. The kitchen was nicely equipped with everything we needed for home cooking. We were allowed to pick some lemons from the trees, which was very nice, the kids loved it, and the fruit was delicious. We enjoyed our stay very much and we would gladly come again.

Nothing. Although we did not have perfect weather, we did some nice trips, e.g. to Taormina.

The accommodation is exactly as pictured. We had a wonderful stay here, the hosts were kind and helpful in every way. Clean and tidy everywhere inside the enclosed area. The parking is secure and enclosed. Rooms are clean, facilities are ok for self catering. The pool is fantastic. A few minutes walk to shops, cafes, restaurants. You can have a perfect view to Etna every morning. We can only recommend.

Very nice appartment on first ground with great terrace Great position, few steps from nice pebble beach with enough space for our umbrella (included in the appartment to bring to the beach) Very good swimming pool in great environment under olive trees and palms, perfect lighting in the evening The host accepted our late departure due to delayed train Perfect kitchen equipment - dishwasher is really perfect choice for holiday The possibility to use washing machine - great option for families Few steps to supermarket with basic foods and the store with beach supplements Few steps to the church and restaurants:-) few steps to the caffee with ice cream No hidden fees, everything was included in the price - bed linen, towels, swimming pool usage, tourist tax... Wi-fi without problems

- swimming pool opening hours were only from 9 to 19 hours, it could be longer (maybe from 6-22) - appartment far from train station

Great location to visit Etna and Taormina. Apartments are in a gated community with lots of parking. Super pool area and clean well kept garden and surroundings with many different types of fruit trees. Apartment was spacious, with a large terrace area and although not brand new was in good condition and nicely furnished/equiped. Nice coffee shop/gelateria and small grocery store are close by. Villa Galati is an oasis in Mascali.

Mascali is a good base to explore the eastern part of Sicily. The town has a tremendous amount of potential, which could easily be resolved if fly tipping and littering would not be prevalent in the region. This lets down Mascali, which is otherwise populated by very friendly and hospitable residents.

At reality it is better than in the pictures. Very clean rooms and beautiful garden. Pool is the best.

We stayed here 5 days, but the room service never came in that period. Toilet paper ran out and we had to buy it ourselves.

Really nice villa with beautiful pool. Staff been really welcoming and helpfull.

I would suggest to add main items in the kitchen, sugar, salt, peppers, etc.. Iron would be great as well.

The large terrace/balcony on the first floor and the pool. All so clean and well cared for. The mature olive trees and palm trees around the pool provides perfect mottled shade when needed during the day. Imaclately clean. Just right

Nothing - the accommodation was very good. You do need wheels to get about although a pleasant cafe near by, just a short walk and helpful folk in the local shop.

Everything spotlessly clean Pool was fantastic location was great for visiting much of the east coast of the island plus some nice restaurants and cafes within walking distance

having to go home

We had a very spacious and clean apartment right next to the beautiful pool. Everything was extremely clean and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and always available. The setting has a great view of the volcano.

We were disappointed by the dirtiness of the surroundings. The town and the beach are full of garbage. The traffic in the southern part of the island is terrible.
