Bella

My wife, daughter and I stayed at the villa.It is beautiful Plenty of room with a kitchen living room and spacious patio.The view is stunning. The pictures do not do it justice.It is worth staying just for the view.Minutes walk from the cable car and minutes to all the shops.Taormina is incredible.If you drive here make sure you can drive a standard up steep hills with plenty of switch backs.

The apartment was obviously a rental unit as its decor was sparse. Shower was very small and the shower spray head did not fit the holder so you had to hold it in one hand. Forgot the washing machine it almost destroyed our clothes Road noise was noticeable but manageable and 3 of the 7 nights we had a barking dog that barked non stop for hours. Not sure if this was a temporary thing but that’s what we had to endure. Anytime anyone was checking in or leaving their suitcase wheels noise resonated through the concrete floors. Pool was excellent and seating was never a problem. Parking garage was convenient but to get to it you need to take 2 elevators that were pathetically slow. It’s Taormina so everything is steps and steep grades. View was as advertised and we appreciated managers assistance checking in. Overall I’d rate this stay as a C.

Beautiful View, Great Location, Awesome Pool

The apartment was nice, the view was spectacular. There were so many things to do, walk to the Taormina town center, hike to the beaches and a castle, fun night life, close enough to other towns, Castemola, Syracuse, Etna for a day trip. The property manager, Isabella, was fantastic, very helpful and a great job introducing us to the property and surrounding area. Loved our stay. Didn't want to leave.

Excellent location and Beautiful view

We visited Taormina for a week long stay and this apartment was the perfect location. Only a 5 minute walk to the center of Taormina and a 5 minute walk to the gondola which provided access to the beach. Also the view from the apartment was incredible. It was very nice to wake up each morning to the sunrise over the sea!

A little slice of heaven

We absolutely loved our stay! This was the perfect location just a three minute walk to the entrance of the Main Street of Taormina with shopping, restaurants and cafes all around. The property has a beautiful pool with a stunning view. The unit is so close to town but so peaceful being just on the outskirts of the hustle and bustle. There is also parking and the unit is very spacious for a family of 4. We would not hesitate to book here again!

Love love Taormina

This place was what we expected a good location, close to everything with a great view. the exception was the kitchen was very poorly supplied for cooking and we wanted to cook as we stayed for 9 days. There was one cutting knife, one pot. Also the lighting inside was far too bright with no lampshades or dimmers. To make it five stars and it could easily become that I would suggest to the owners to stock the kitchen with pots pans knives, peeler for veggies, as if they were living there and cooking put some love into decor and lighting.

Lovely Apartment in Taormina

This is a lovely apartment with gorgeous sea views which is perfectly located for all that Taormina has to offer. We were met at the property by the local agent who showed us everything in the apartment and around the complex, including the pedestrian gateway that is a 2 minute walk from the town centre. The apartment itself has 2 good size bedrooms (1 double, 1 twin) plus 2 bathrooms (1 with shower cubicle, 1 with bath with shower hose). There is a well equipped kitchen and a large sitting room (with sofa bed if needed), but the star of the show is the balcony, where we sat every morning and evening to take in the views. We also had a dedicated parking space in the secure garage. The complex has a large pool, again with great views, surrounded by communal sunbeds/umbrellas - it wasn't always possible to get a sunbed on arriving at the pool, but they usually became free after a while, and we were there during the busiest holiday week of the year, so understandable. Taormina itself is a gorgeous town - absolutely full of history, architecture, shops, restaurants and bars - and an evening stroll is absolutely essential. We were only in Taormina for a week, which was nowhere near long enough to explore everything, but we enjoyed every day in this apartment.

Amazing property with fantastic hostess

The location on this couldn't be better. The apartment was very comfortable for myself and my kids. I loved waking to the sunrise and the sound of the birds every morning. The rooms could be darkened fully, which my kids liked, but I liked having the light. The property manager, Isabella, was so helpful in helping for activity ideas, finding a babysitter, and everything else we needed. I would definitely recommend this property.

Excellent location and with everything you would need

We were a party of five friends who decided that we wanted a long weekend away from our husbands, children and other day-to-day responsibilities. The apartment is a 10 minute walk from the bus terminal (do not follow Google's instructions which try and take you via the Via Guardiola Vecchia as it is steep clamber with cases and has no footway). Those arriving by bus, take a left out of the terminal and keep going. From the apartment into the main body of the town was a short, pulse increasing, walk of around 4-5 minutes. We were met at the entrance to the apartments by Isabella, who showed us around the apartment and pointed us in the right direction of where to pick up the basics (milk, bread, croissants, fruit). We opted for this apartment owing to the access to a pool, which we didn't really take advantage of (it was a bit too chilly), but we did relax by it one morning. There were only eight loungers set out - not sure if there were more available at the complex, but something to consider if you don't want to fight for a spot. The apartment looks down to the sea (across the expressways) so early morning views are lovely, albeit it can get a bit noisier as traffic builds up on the roads. We had a fabulous time: we took a cable car down to Isloa Bella (its likely that you will be pestered by folk asking if you want a massage - be prepared to tell them to go away on more than one occasion). We took a trip to Mount Etna, approximately 90-minutes by bus from Taormina (wrap up warm and wear sturdy shoes if you plan on visiting close to the summit - although you can hire walking books and a jacket); there was snow at the top and it was windy with a wind chill of around -5oC (no flip flops or shorts). For those returning to the airport by bus, please note the return bus times and that you leave plenty of time!! The bus to the airport is not a dedicated airport service and is used by locals who will occupy seats on the hourly service - you may find yourself with no seat and a long wait. This happened to us so we decided to take a local bus down (10mins) to the train station and take the train to Catania Central (35mins express/55mins local) then take the ALIBUS dedicated airport service back to the airport (20mins). At Catania Central Station, take care if you are approached by 'taxi' drivers - some may be unlicensed, or do not have the sufficient number of seats for the number of passengers they 'claim' to be able to carry).

Vireligt dejlig lejlighed

Virkelig dejlig to værelses lejlighed, men en flot stor terrasse hvor der nemt kunne side 5 og spise. Fint køkken, dog kan man undre sig over der ikke findes f.eks. en brødkniv. Men der kan lavers mad i køkkenet (ingen ovn), og der må improviseres med det der nu er af udstyr. Alt er pænt rent, og der var et sæt håndklæder til hver. Isabella tog god i mod os, og viste os vores parkering plads og rundt i området og lejligheden. Vi kom lidt tidligere end beregnet, men Isabella skyndte sig hen til os – super service. Før besøget sendte jeg flere spørgsmål til udlejer, og de blev alle besvaret inden for 1 time. Pool området er dejligt. Der er kun 6-7 parasoller, men vi oplevede aldrig der ikke var plads. Vi undret os faktisk over der var så få i den store og flotte pool. Super havudsigt fra pool’en. Der er rigtig godt WFI, og vi kunne alle 5 se film på samme tid, uden det gik i stå. Der er ikke WFI ved poolen. Indkøb kan foretages i det små butikker, som er inden for få hundrede meters afstand. Ca 2 km væk ligger et lidt større supermarked. Vi kørte til Lidl, som ligger ca 15 min væk i bil, et par gange og handlede stort ind. Mest negativ – skraldesorteringen er helt utilstrækkelig, og man skal ned med det forskellige fraktioner i p-kælderen, på bestemte dage, og så skal man hente sin skraldespand igen. Utilstrækkeligt, og besværligt (især fordi der ikke er noget på skrift, om hvordan det skal foregå).

Great place to stay!

My wife and I had a fantastic time on our honeymoon in Taormina. Valeria and her father were very helpful in coordinating the place and time to meet to stay at their family's apartment as well as welcoming us to Sicily with a bottle of wine. The apartment was very nice and the views were incredible. Sun rise each morning was beautiful to see over mainland Italy. The complex was nice as well and the walkway to the city of Taormina was 5 minutes away - we rarely saw anyone at the complex so it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves ( we stayed from 5/16 - 5/19) and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting!

Breathtaking views....

Our family of four spent five nights in Valeria's apartment. Valeria and her parents gave us a warm welcome, complete with a bottle of Sicilian wine and limoncello. Everything was perfect as described -- but the pictures don't do it enough credit. The view is breath taking. Location was very convenient -- it's a short walk to Corso Umberto and great restaurants and shops. We look forward to going back.

Perfect location

It's a beautiful apartment with a view that is very convenient to walk to all the highlights in Taormina. We would book there again if we returned. It's clean and comfortable, beautiful view and in a perfect location. The only downside was having to check out by 9 am and although there is parking, it is a little challenging to coordinate. The owners were helpful. We would all recommend it.

FANTASTIC APARTMENT

Our party of two couples stayed at this apartment for four nights in early October. First off, the photos do not do this place justice--the view from the patio is absolutely stunning! The patio was surprisingly large which we appreciated. The apartment is as advertised in terms of amenities: two bedrooms, one with a queen and one with twin beds; two bathrooms, one with a bathtub/showerhead combo (but no shower curtain) and the other with a small shower; the kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, paper towels, dishwasher detergent, etc.; there was a washing machine and a large drying rack to hang our clothes out. Parking was in the basement and was easy to navigate. The wifi worked well, and for those of us that did not have an international data plan, this was invaluable. There was a small market about a block away and another larger market farther away. It takes about five minutes to walk to the Corso Umberto. We stayed at another hotel in Ortygia and an apartment in Sorrento on the same trip, but this was hands down our favorite place to stay. Valeria was incredibly helpful in guiding us to restaurants and activities and was available via WhatsApp whenever we had any questions. We highly recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
