Booking Enquiry

Boutique hideaway with jacuzzi plunge pool, near sea, immersed in greenery. Fab dream location. Annie & Ray love this secret cottage - lush green luxurious seclusion & with its own plunge pool. Breakfast and daily clean are included too.

Only about 30km from Taormina, 40km from Catania airport and 10 minutes from the motorway, this small boutique hotel is ideally placed for touring the wonders of Sicily, and is a perfect choice for a weekend break or a long summer holiday. Donna Carmela’s spectacular backdrop is the towering Mount Etna, the sparkling Ionian Sea and the biggest and most famous plant nursery of its type in Europe, with sub-tropical and Mediterranean plants and trees, covering five hundred hectares. The nearest beach, Praiolo, is really a small pebbly cove, about 2km away. Wooden decked paths lead into the sea and “Zio Turi” watches over it all with an eagle eye and sells ice cream. He has been there forever, thinks of it as his beach and LOVES chatting to foreigners. What a character!

Donna Carmela is a place of colours and scents, with a charming swimming pool and manicured gardens of secular olive trees, lofty palms, unusual shrubs and pretty flowery courtyards and terraces, overlooking serried lines of a well-ordered massive ten hectare nursery. Fragrant perfumes infuse the air with gentle wafts of citrus on cooling sea breezes. This hotel is unique and we love its feeling of "total greenery " with the blue sea, in the distance. It is the very essence of "boutique ", with chic modern design - a haven of style and elegance - and great food. Part of a new generation of agriturismo, it is really special.
 
Hidden in the heart of Donna Carmela's exotic plant nursery, this spacious cottage, in a gloriously elevated position, is surrounded by lush greenery. Perfect as a secret hideaway for just two people, although it can sleep up to four, Donna Carmela Dependance is a place to choose for tranquillity and wonderful privacy, but with fantastic hotel facilities close by, about 600m away. It has a private entrance, a pretty garden and a delightful terrace, with spectacular views of the sea and the glorious Mount Etna, as well as a small jacuzzi plunge pool.
 
Inside, Donna Carmela Dependance has the same care and attention to detail as the main hotel and guests will receive the same daily cleaning, toiletries in the shower room and so on. The decor and furnishings are contemporary and  stylish, similar in feel to the main hotel.
