Angela’s HOME is a 150 m² apartment located on the second floor of a historic building in one of the most refined and elegant areas of Catania.
The building was constructed by the great-grandfather of the current owner and has been passed down from generation to generation. The apartment is named after the host’s mother, Angela, who strongly wished for her daughter and son-in-law to bring this project to life.
Angela’s HOME is a finely furnished house with a modern, sober, and elegant design, carefully curated in every detail to make guests feel truly at home.
You will stay in comfortable and welcoming rooms, with bright and colorful walls, immersed in an atmosphere of magical and radiant Sicilian spirit, characterized by heartfelt hospitality.
Angela’s HOME is located in the most elegant area of Catania, near the Courthouse, on Via Firenze, a street parallel to Corso Italia, the city’s chicest shopping avenue.
It is easily reachable:
Thanks to the nearby Metro station, reaching the city center is extremely easy: just three stops to arrive in the historic Etnea Street area.
This iconic street was originally designed to connect the sea to Mount Etna. Today it extends for about 3 km, paved with dark volcanic stone and intersected by the magnificent streets of the historic center.
Here you can admire churches adorned with Sicilian Baroque, ancient ruins, the Cathedral and its square featuring “u’ Liotru,” the symbol of Catania, or the nearby picturesque “Piscaria” (the fish market), where you can wander through narrow streets filled with traditional shops and taste local street food.
When you stand in Piazza Duomo, place your back toward the sea (where Porta Uzeda stands) and look ahead—you’ll be struck by the breathtaking view of “a’ Muntagna,” Mount Etna, in all its spectacular grandeur.
For those seeking an unforgettable panoramic experience embracing both sea and mountain, brochures are available in the apartment to help you book an excursion with specialized, authorized guides. A unique adventure not to be missed!
Angela’s HOME is also very close to the sea. Walking along Corso Italia, you’ll reach Piazza Europa, from where we recommend strolling along the entire seafront, inhaling the “ciauru do mari” (the scent of the sea) until you reach the charming fishing village of San Giovanni Li Cuti with its black volcanic-sand beach, and eventually the picturesque little harbor of Ognina.

Along the seafront you’ll find many cafés, tea rooms, and small restaurants where you can taste typical Catanese specialties (breakfast pastries, tavola calda, arancini, desserts, and the famous granita) or enjoy an aperitif while admiring the Ionian Sea in all its beauty.
EXCELLENT Based on 5 reviews Posted on Booking PetiaVerified Wonderful stay with amazing hosts ☺ We had a truly wonderful stay at Angela’s HOME. From the very beginning, Jessica and her family made us feel welcome and at home. The apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. She was incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to give useful tips and recommendations. We especially appreciated the warm hospitality and the lovely treats! The location is excellent – very close to the Italia metro station, and the city center is also within walking distance. This made getting around really easy. There is also a parking space available if needed, which is a big plus. Everything was exactly as described, if not even better. We would definitely recommend this place and would be very happy to stay here again. Thank you for everything!Posted on Booking AndrzejVerified Exceptional Sicilian Heaven - A True Gem! ☺ From the moment we arrived, this appartment exceeded all our expectations in every way possible! The space is even more beautiful than the photos suggest. Everything inside is clean with delightful red pomegranate fragrance throughout. The hosts have thought of absolutely every detail- from cooking essentials in the kitchen to quality cosmetics in the bathroom. All equipment and appliances are new and in perfect working conditon. What makes this place truly special is how it captures authentic Sicilian soul through local handmade art objects and thoughtful decor. We were touched to find the appartment beautifully decorated for Christmas, adding a festive warmth to our stay. The hosts were extraordinary available via Whatsapp whenever we needed assistance and generously taking time on Christmas Eve to meet us and share holiday wishes. Their recommendations for restaurants, shopping hours, parking, and must-visit places were invaluable to our experience. We appreciated the library featuring albums about Sicily, travel guides and books that enhanced our understanding of the region. Thank you Jessica and Luciano for making our Sicilian holiday truly unforgettable!Posted on Booking AnnaVerified Appartamento bellissimo, host gentilissimi e posizione perfetta: un soggiorno davvero impeccabile ☺ Abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno meraviglioso nell’appartamento di Jessica. L’appartamento è fantastico, curato nei minimi dettagli, confortevole e molto accogliente. Si trova vicino al centro città, ma allo stesso tempo in una zona tranquilla e silenziosa, perfetta per rilassarsi. Gli host sono stati eccezionali: ci hanno accolto in modo caloroso e si sono assicurati che avessimo ottimi consigli su dove andare e cosa visitare. Consigliamo vivamente questo alloggio e ci torneremmo senza esitazione.Posted on Booking MiroslavVerified ExcepcionalPosted on Booking IbrahimVerified Excepcional ☺ The apartment is well located, to steps from the Metro station. The house is cleaned and with a shining floor. The kitchen is fully equipped by all stuff for cooking........the dishwasher has saved my time. The bed was so comfortable and large. the host, Jessica, welcomed me and she was so kind and available to introduce me in her apartment. I found into the apartment delicious typical Sicilian sweets, water, teabags, coffee and a bottle of a good wine. I was so surprised to find a cortesy kit like slippers, shampoo and toothpaste.......litterally much better than a 5 stars hotel. The access into the apartment was so smart, thanks a code-lock access. The host has given me the possibility to park my car into a private parking, just 3min walk away. This time I came alone for business, for sure I'll come back with my family, because the apartment is so fornished even for children. The Sicilian ceramics are really astonished and amazing. The apartment has air-conditioners in all the rooms. It has a cable TV and WIFI FOC. From the balcony it's so nice to being rapped from a colourful sunset. Thanks Jessica for your hospitality
