Luogo magico
Pros:

Questo è un luogo magico. Ogni anno tappa fissa. Immagina di svegliarti sospeso tra l'energia del fuoco dell'Etna e il blu del Mare, avvolto nella quiete di una tenuta Antica dove il tempo sembra essersi fermato. Monaci delle Terre Nere a Zafferana Etnea non è un semplice soggiorno, ma un’esperienza che rigenera l'anima e risveglia i sensi fin dal primo istante.
​Il vero fiore all'occhiello di questo luogo magico è un'offerta enogastronomica che non potrai trovare da nessun'altra parte. Qui la filosofia del cibo è sacra: tutto ciò che arriva nel piatto e nel bicchiere proviene da una filiera rigorosamente 100% biologica e da una ricerca viscerale della materia prima pura.
​Sedersi a tavola è un viaggio indimenticabile tra i sapori della Sicilia più autentica, custoditi grazie all'uso costante di prodotti Presìdi Slow Food. Dagli ortaggi rari raccolti a chilometro zero negli orti della tenuta, ai formaggi artigianali,alle uova delle galline felici , fino alle carni di razze autoctone e all'olio extravergine d'oliva spremuto a freddo dai loro ulivi secolari. Il viaggio continua nel calice, con vini naturali : nettari vulcanici, minerali e vibranti, nati da vitigni autoctoni che raccontano la storia di questo territorio e che non hanno eguali nel mondo.
​Se desideri regalarti un'evasione dove la bellezza della natura incontra un lusso autentico, sostenibile e un'esperienza culinaria irripetibile, Monaci delle Terre Nere è una tappa obbligata. Un luogo unico che ti farà innamorare della Sicilia a ogni singolo boccone.

Spektakuläre Lage mit wunderschönem Garten
Pros:

Phantastische Lage inmitten von Pomeranze-und Olivenfeldern
Frühstück liebevoll mit sehr gutem Service
Die große Gartenanlage war sehr gut gepflegt und wunderschön mit den Terassen

Cons:

Wenn der Gast Mitte Juni kommt, wünscht er sich keine verschrumpelten Äpfel,
Dias Zimmer war sehr großzügig mit schönem Garten, Fußboden und Wände in beigen Industriestiel hat uns weniger gefallen.

A lovely vineyard embraced by the sea and mount Etna, with super fresh and tasty food.
Pros:

A beautifully located room facing both, the sea and mount Etna. The vineyard is beautiful, the food is all farm to table, and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Out of our stay in Sicily, this is the location we had the most activities: pasta cooking, going up mount Etna and horseback riding.
