Etna Golf Club

Opened for play in 1989, Il Picciolo Golf Club, the first 18 hole golf course on the island, offers a fantastic array of holes laid down by architect Luigi Rota Caremoli. Nestled among age old oaks, towering hazel trees and romantic vineyards, the course offers a peaceful yet testing afternoon on the fairways.

Measuring 6,419 yards from the back tees the course is lengthy enough to test the better player while not leaving the beginner overawed by the challenge. The course also enjoys a fine tradition having hosted both the Sicilian Ladies Italian Open and the Sicilian Senior Open and with a clubhouse that sits at 650 meters above sea level, views of the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed while you recount your round over a well deserved drink.

We had a pleasant stay for 4 nights and 5 rounds of golf. The hotel is built for some years ago, but is OK. The breakfast was good ,and a lot to choose. I think IT is a must to have your own CAR, then You can SEE other place in the neigborhood. IT is also a lot of winery in the area, when the hotel is in "wina del strada". And close to The vulcano Etna.

The hotel is located on the slopes of Mt Etna. You can see the smoking summit from the hotel grounds. The hotel interior is a little dated. The dining room is rather cavernous and plain. The food is OK but not great. We chose to eat out about half of the time. We had originally booked the sister five star hotel of this resort, but we we overbooked to this hotel at the last minute. In retrospect we should have cancelled our holiday and got a refund.

The quality of food in the restaurant and the after golf bar was excellent. The staff were friendly and always keen to go the extra mile. The rooms were typically adequate. The setting dominated by views of Etna was superb. All transfers were on time.

The rooms are very well appointed with big comfortable beds and all the other facilities that you would expect at a decent golf resort. The half board option is good value and the food was great. Bar prices were reasonable given that the service you get us excellent. Snacks at the clubhouse were also delicious. Reception staff were very helpful and we can recommend the resort for a great golf break.
