Local Attractions
Our idea is that of letting clients enjoy their holiday with a slow rhythm in contact with nature, such as proposing a day-trip by jeep to the beautiful and nearby Etna or a trekking excursion that allows them to enjoy the splendid countryside beauty of the Alcantara Gorge. Furthermore, in just a few hours you can enjoy a naturalistic excursion on the back of donkeys which go up to the summit of Mount Venere and from which you can enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramas in the world. In a day, clients can visit Syracuse or Piazza Armerina where you can clearly see the historical dominations of the Sicilian Island among ancient theatres and residences or you can visit nearby Savoca which was the backdrop for one of the greatest cinema works…. “The Godfather”. Hotel Villa Sonia urges travelers to stop and savor the flavors and fragrances by also organizing parties (Beginning of Summer or Wine-Harvest) thus allowing them to live the experiences and emotions that cannot be captured in a photograph.

Testimonials:
"By the way, I was very pleased with your site's service! It turned out that our group got a better room price reservation at a comparable hotel to the one we were considering. Since our small jazz band doesn't really have any budget to speak of, price was an important consideration and thanks to your service we were able to save money without sacrificing on the quality and amenities of the hotel. Thanks again! We'll be using you again, I'm sure, for future trips." D.R. - Auburn, WA
