The apartment is very well equipped and is perfectly located for the attractions, shops and restaurants of Taormina, with fabulous views of Mount Etna (clouds permitting!) and Giardini Naxos bay from the terrace. Paola was the perfect host, very welcoming and helpful and had thought of everything.

Beds very firm, but that's a personal preference! The shower stall was small and dark and hard to keep water inside with the way the curtain is situated.

Paola was an incredibly nice and helpful host. Excellent location, walkable to everything Taormina has to offer. Very well equipped apartment, stocked with everything and anything you may need. Requested and was provided with a baby crib. Great to have a tub in one bathroom to bathe the baby. The terrace was excellent with amazing views of Etna and the water. Felt very quiet, clean, safe and secure.

Nothing, it was all more than we expected.

Everything about Paula's flat is all you could want. The location is close to all the attractions. The generous patio gets the sun for most of the day, with a stunning view of Mt Etna. Paula herself provides all the information you could need and after three days on trains, the provisions were so welcome.

The location was amazing, Paola helped and assisted us on every step of the visit, she was extremely friendly and helpful. The view is like an art piece, one side is Mount Etna, one side is the sea view and an amazing combination of surroundings. The property also has bidet that was a very important thing for us.

The location exceeded our expectations. The uninterrupted view of the bay and Mt Etna were spectacular. The apartment was close to the main street Via Umberto, where you will find many boutiques, pasticcerie and restaurants. Paola our host was just lovely and very helpful and the apartment provided us with more than enough towels for our family of 5, more than the basics for washing clothes and cooking and excellent hot water and 2 bathrooms which were a plus. Our host Paola was great and organised our van transfer for the next part of our trip at late notice which was greatly appreciated. Thank you for everything!

Loved everythiing!

Paula was the very best hostess one could hope for - friendly, informative (verbally and with written materials), gave great recommendations. It was a bonus to learn about the multi-generational history of her lovely, renovated home and the area. She also provided us food and drink well beyond the basics to keep us going until we could get out to shop for ourselves. She was exceptional!

Nothing except stairs to climb.

Location is ideal. Hosts provided bread, butter, jam, coffee, water, soda, and all housekeeping necessities. The view is untouchable.

Paola was an exceptional host.From communication to arrival to parking, Paola was by my side helping all the way. I cannot stress the perfect location of the property. Almost next door to the Four Seasons, for 10% of the price. The aircon was cool, the kitchen well equipped with food and utensils. Eating breakfast on the deck overlooking Taormina and Naxos was such a treat. Paola deserves an award and a 10/10 everytime. Such a brilliant host of an equally wonderful property,

We loved everything about this beautifully located property - but the major bonus was the gorgeous terrace which provided front row seats for when Mt Etna sparked up. The rest of the time, we were able to sit back and take in the stunning view out to sea with a glass of wine. It was so gorgeous we even cooked - as our wonderful host had provided some delicious basics to get us started - very thoughtful.

This location is absolutely fabulous. Walkable to everything you need to reach yet quite for rest if you'd rather! The views are incredible. The home is perfect for a family traveling together. It is clean and well equipped. The terrace has a beautiful view. Paola is also a very attentive host, ensuring all guests have what they need to be comfortable. Ages in our family ranged from 11 to 80 and it was great for all! We will always stay here when in Taormina.

We couldn’t get our heads round the recycling! The collection days seemed to be different on the bins and the calendar. Also not very clear what exactly could go in each bin.

Amazing views. Fantastic outdoor space. Friendly and helpful host.

Beds Shower

The host was unbelievable! View is amazing. The shower is very small and could use a new shower curtain. The beds are very firm and could use updating. I would stay again because of the lovely host and the view.

Incredible property, right next to San Domenico luxury hotel featured in White Lotus but a fraction of the price. truly a home away from home, so well appointed with everything you would need if not eating out. Million dollar views across to Etna from the terrace and out to sea. Tranquil spot in Taormina but within easy walking access to great restaurants, parking, sight seeing spots, and cable car to Isola Bella. Our host was just charming- gave us so many tips on arrival and accessible throughout our stay. Already planning on coming back!

Exceeded our expectations

Beautiful private terrace overlooking the sea and wonderful view of Mount Etna. Just a minute walk to the Domo and the main street in Taoramina. The kitchen was fully equipped and our hostess, Paola,provided enough for breakfast for our stay plus wine and a few dinner items as well. Paola welcomed us and gave us an overview of the restaurants and points of interest. She also arranged our taxi for our departure and came to see us off.

Just needed a full-length mirror!

Location was perfect -- just a couple of blocks from the heart of everything, but very quiet. We had a lovely terrace with a view of the sea and Mount Etna. The apartment is in a free-standing building that belongs to the owner's family. There was a locked gate to the building, so it felt safe and private. Had everything we needed for a totally relaxing and enjoyable week. Able to cook meals when we wanted, even do our own laundry (which helped us travel with only carry-on bags). The host was delightful and helpful. She showed us how everything worked, then was available by text if we needed her.

Paola was super friendly and so knowledgeable, giving us a low down on what was nearby etc. She had also left some goodies in the fridge for us which was really appreciated! The property and building itself is just absolutely stunning - we didn't want to leave! The view from our room/massive bed, of the sea was beautiful - could have stared at it all day! We had some really enjoyable evenings relaxing on the terrace with a glass of Etna vino looking out at the fantastic setting. And the location was top notch - seriously this Casa has it all and total value for money as well. Without a doubt would definitely recommend to stay here and we will hopefully be back again to stay. If i won the lotto, I would try and buy it haha!!!

Tutti perfetto.

A perfect property; Paola could not have been friendlier, welcoming and helpful. The apartment was very comfortable and supplied with every conceivable supply we might need. Location fabulous. It is probably the best self catering apartment we’ve ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many!
