Reviews and Ratings
Our stay at Donna Carmela was truly exceptional, with stunning views of Mount Etna and beautiful gardens all around. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, providing a delightful atmosphere for relaxation. The dining options were excellent, particularly the breakfast buffet that featured a variety of delicious items. However, while the amenities were impressive, the pricing felt a bit steep at times, especially for some dining choices. Overall, it’s a fantastic place for a restful getaway.
Our stay at Donna Carmela was absolutely wonderful! The views of Mount Etna from our room were breathtaking, and the gardens were simply stunning, providing a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel truly valued. However, the location necessitated a bit of walking to reach local amenities, which might not suit everyone. The food was delightful but could benefit from a little more variety in the evening meals.
I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful resort, enjoying the romantic lodge with a private whirlpool. The serene setting made for a perfect getaway, although I felt the dining options could use a bit more variety. The staff were attentive and the grounds were simply stunning. Overall, it was an excellent experience, but an expanded menu would have made it even better.
Our stay at the hotel was quite memorable, primarily due to the lovely accommodations with stunning views of Mount Etna. The unique villa-like setting offered plenty of space and a private atmosphere, making it a peaceful retreat. The hospitality was exceptional, although some aspects of the service could use a bit more warmth. Dining was generally a pleasant experience, but I found the wait staff a tad less engaging than I expected. Overall, it was a great experience with some minor areas for improvement.
My stay at Donna Carmela was quite enjoyable. The hotel is set in a lovely rural area, making it perfect for exploring the nearby attractions, though having a car is a must. The room was spacious and had a pleasing view of Mount Etna, and I appreciated the cleanliness throughout my stay. However, the dining prices were a bit on the higher side compared to local options, and while the shuttle service was convenient, it could be improved with a larger capacity.
