    Gorgeous Apartment, Parking is Extra

    • Penthouse Apartment
    • Stayed 2 nights

    You have to climb a LOT of stairs to get up there, but it's worth it. The listing said "parking", but as is common in Sicily, they mean the parking is somewhere else, and you have to pay for it. They suggested a valet service, which is 30 Euros a day, and we did that.

    Gorgeous, roomy apartment high up the hill, with a fantastic view. New and absolutely lovely. Quiet. Very helpful and friendly host who carried out bags up and down the many stairs from the street to the building.

    Gorgeous newly renovated apt with full kitchen. Supermarket and bakery are a short walk away. Ocean views from the lovely balcony. Excellent location walkable to the bus station, and main part of town. Staff are so friendly and go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need. I didn't want to leave.

    Checking out at 10am is rather early, we would have been able to stay longer if the apartment wasn’t booked, but this way we had to leave at round about 10

    Can’t say there was anything I didn’t like.

    Well maintained by a caring staff. The structure was originally his nonna’s and although he completely updated it and modernized it into luxury accommodations you can tell in his heart it’s still his nonna’s home.

    A quibble...the outside terrace was lovely albeit a bit small.

    A wonderful boutique hotel with excellent hosts. We stayed in a stylishly decorated studio which was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. We loved the location along a quiet walkway, but conveniently close to shops and restaurants. As others have noted, there is a lengthy set of steps leading to the property, but host Andrea portered our luggage and the steps were quite manageable for us otherwise. Lovely stay. Highly recommend.

    Andrea and Linda (office manager) were so incredibly lovely and accommodating!! They met us as we arrived to assist with our luggage which was so kind. Upon arrival Andrea walked us through so essential information about Taormina and sent through some great recommendations via WhatsApp. The property itself is stunning. Every detail has been thought of from the herringbone bricks to the beautifully restored balconies with sea views. The room was so beautifully finished with lovely detailing. There was inbuilt charging stations on each bedside, a super cute fridge, complimentary Nespresso machine, fresh lillies in a vase for us and a small but well set up balcony. The attention to detail must come from Andrea’s years at the Four Seasons and was so appreciated. We were so grateful for the warmth and generosity shown to us and the impeccable room we stayed in. Could not recommend this place more and will tell everyone I know to stay here!

    Apartment with a “Sea view” is realistically a sea glimpse, (a very large building is immediately in front). Instead of two pot plants dividing the balcony from the next room, for privacy there should be a dividing screen.

    Beautifully decorated, spacious, clean apartment. Great location near city centre, but still quiet. Extremely helpful staff

    This property was absolutely outstanding. It was the highlight of our 2-month trip to Europe. Andrea and Linda were fantastic hosts who communicated well with us and met us on arrival to assist with sorting out our rental car and to show us the accommodation. It is located in a great part of Taormina with views across the whole town. We had a lovely balcony and the room was well equipped. Couldn't recommend this place more
