My best friend and I stayed at Mori’s House for a week in Sicily, and it truly felt like a private oasis in Catania. Perfectly located near the beach, restaurants, and shops, the property blends modern amenities with the historic charm of the building. The air conditioning was excellent during the August heat, and the three-story unit was spotless and unique, with two large bedrooms and views of the ocean and a nearby church.I loved the upstairs bathroom with its volcanic rock shower and chose that room, though the downstairs suite—with its 15-foot ceilings and chandelier—was stunning. Each morning we enjoyed coffee on the rooftop patio overlooking Mount Etna, complete with a grill and plants for a relaxing setting.Laura is an incredible host who provided the most professional check-in I’ve had in over 10 years of rentals. She sent a detailed video, gave excellent recommendations, and responded quickly whenever we reached out.The location is ideal: just a 5-minute walk from a lido Laura recommended, close to other beaches, with a grocery store a block away and antique shops and cafés even closer. By the end of our stay, we truly felt like locals and were sad to leave. I would recommend Mori’s House and Laura without hesitation—she made our Italian dreams a reality, and we can’t wait to return!
