Plenty of space to find a sunny spot either by the pool or beach or on one of several sun terraces or even on your own. Never far away from a bar or restaurant with plenty of choice. Fabulous service at the poolside.

I really enjoyed the friendliness of the hosts, caring and always available to provide information. The building was in good condition overall and cleaned. Room as well was cleaned, with a lovely spacious bathroom. Breakfast was included in a large area close to our room, with a good range of fresh products! I would definitely go back, as we went during low season the pool and rooftop weren’t open yet. Reason to go back!

Warm and kind behaviour upon the check in with a lovely lady from reception is giving you a vacation mood in a second, following the breathtaking terrace - is a goal. Just in the center of an old town, surrounded by thousand bars, restaurants and view points. Sunset aperetive on the terrace is must! We stayed in renovated room so is was just as you expect it, even with a slippers inside! Breakfast is amazing, if you stay in April or may try authentic nespola fruit - blows away! Guess almost all of the rooms has an etna view)

The Jewel in the Sicilian Crown
As you admire crystal-clear turquoise seas from a Taormina piazza swathed in vibrant pink blossom, you could be forgiven for thinking that you were in paradise. The stunning location of this picturesque town is its crowning glory.
However, it’s not its only glory. Surrounded by trees just below the main town, the Greek Theatre is also a triumph. Its largely intact seating offers wonderful views across the stage towards Mount Etna fuming away in the distance. Spine-tingling summer performances are still held here, and several of the town’s bars also offer live music.
Corso Umberto I runs through the heart of Taormina, from Piazza Corvaja to the 13th-century cathedral, and houses many shops and cafés. Midway along is Piazza IX Aprile, whose clock tower and church are overlooked by a rocky hill topped with a castle.
A cable car runs from the town down to the beautiful Taormina beaches (where the train station is also found). At the centre of the W-shaped bay is little Isola Bella, an island nature reserve. To the south-west is the long stretch of sand at Giardini-Naxos, and north is the bay by Mazzaró.
As you would expect of Sicily’s most beautiful resort, there is no shortage of Taormina accommodation on Booking.com, including 5-star hotels on the beach, town centre apartments and luxury B&Bs.
Taormina is a good base-point for tours of Mt Etna.
Taormina is a good base-point for tours of Mt Etna. There are probably more tours running from Catania, but you can get a good tour from Taormina. The city itself is touristy, but clean and well organized. I won't throw the word "safe" out there, as we felt safe everywhere in Sicily, but we felt very comfortable in Taormina. Of course the sights and history don't compare to the bigger places in Sicily such as Siracusa, Palermo, or Agrigento, but that's not Taormina.

The city/village of Taormina was great for sightseeing.
The city/village of Taormina was great for sightseeing. We visited the ancient amphitheater, and enjoyed hiking in the area. There were an abundance of good shops and restaurants to visit. The City public park was a wonderful mix of trees and walking paths with some amazing “follies” - odd and artistic small buildings, built to entertain the eye.

The location of Taormina looking down to the coast is very beautiful. There was plenty to explore for a few days e.g. the Ancient Theatre, the beach at Isola Bella within walking distance or by cable car. For us the highlight was a visit to the hilltop village of Castelmola which provided fantastic views, including snow capped Mount Etna.
The main drawback of Taormina is the fact it is rather crowded even in late April when we visited. Also there are too many shops selling the same tourist tat.

The Taormina area is wonderful.
The Taormina area is wonderful. The mountains, the water, the history. Getting around needs a bit of planning. Taxi, bus or cablecar/lift unless you don´t mind to walk up and down hill. :-) I´ll be back.

Stunning Taormina, full of heartbreaking corners and history. Our enthusiasm had to face the reality of a pricy place. Disappointment in meeting insisting members of staff from the hospitality field, who sometimes looked desperately in need of customers for their restaurants, bars, boat trips. Etc..Parking is very expensive but we appreciated the free shuttle service to the city center.

Taormina has beautiful views with pretty venitian buildings, very historical. The food is delicious, as it's a prime tourist location the price of dining out does reflect this. The service in restaurants is good, I found staff to be friendly. The bus station at Interbus terminal is in easy walking distance and it's a short bus ride to Giuardini Naxos beach which is sandy. Waiting times for buses can be long if you miss the bus. Cost of one way ticket for 3 people just under 6 euros. The cost of the journey on bus from Taormina to Catania airport is cheap, 21 Euros for 3 people. Cost of a taxi from the airport to Taormina is a bit expensive at 100 euros, but you can get the interbus which is a cheaper option but will take longer. Our journey by Taxi to Valentina B&B was around 1 hour and was arranged by the lovely lost Loredana at Valentina B&B. Our driver Giuseppe was polite , friendly and provided lots of tips about the location and places to eat etc. Try the paste marandela Sicilian cookies, almond flavour is delicious, also the Arancini, a good savoury snack filled with rice with different fillings. Try the tomato & veg one, delicious.Lucios restaurant was fantastic, staff friendly. And Di foesteria, opposite Valentina B&B where you can have breakfast or brunch, very good quality and nice staff.
Hotel is atop a mountain approximately 500m above sea level. Lovely staff, nice swimming pool and jacuzzi with amazing background scenery of the mountainous Taormina region of Sicily. You also get amazing views of the neighbouring Giardini Naxos beach and even an unobstructed view of Mount Etna. Lovely continental breakfast every morning. Room was good size with kitchenette, porch area and they even provided an extra cot bed as the bed was not big enough for the three of us (room was right size for 2adults and a small child)
This adorable and charming hotel is located in the perfect Taormina location. It's just steps away from shopping and restaurants. The breakfast room has a wonderful view of the sea and Mt. Etna as well as great food and coffee. The personalized service we received while staying at the hotel was amazing. The concierge made dinner reservations for us at the most delicious local restaurants for us each night (Trattoria Tiramisu was our fav!). Overall, great experience staying at Hotel Villa Taormina.
This property is 5 stars! It is completely updated with incredibly comfortable beds, luxury linens and absolutely beautiful decor.The owners take great care to make the property comfortable and true to the spirit of Taormina. it is authentic and beautiful. We were some of the first people to stay here, and i feel very lucky to have had the opportunity. If you are looking for a five star experience in Taoromina, you should book this place. The location, beds, and AC were all wonderful too.
Giuseppe was absolutely fantastic. He made an intentional effort every day to ensure that our experience in Taormina was perfect. What I admire most about him, is the pride he takes in his family business.
The rooms were exceptionally clean, the staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast was outstanding! Not to mention the location of the hotel is perfect.
We could not recommend this hotel enough!
This place is a gem! By far the best level of service we experienced during our time in Sicily. The location is perfect: on a quiet street just 3 minutes walk to the bustling center of Taormina. Rooms are spacious, beds comfortable and amenities comparable to those offered by a 5 star hotel. Loved the personal touches and the time taken to show us around. Definitely the place to stay in Taormina.
Everything was in the apartment and It looked clean. Nice little balcony for yourself with an amazing view over the ocean and Isola Bella. A busstop right in front of the hotel that takes you to the station.
The check in was great. The worker told me how to get into the town of Taormina, explained very well where I could find the centre and was very polite.
I wish I could this property more then 5 stars. The apartment was exceptionally clean. The bed was so comfortable. The shower was absolutely lovely too. Easy parking right on the street in front of the apartment too. This was our fourth place we have stayed in Italy/Sicily and it was by far the best, cleanest, and most comfortable place we have stayed.
Superb location in central Taormina. A wonderful hotel - artistically designed and filled with art. Comfortable rooms. All staff were professional, helpful and delightful. Jaw-dropping views of Taormina especially from the rooftop bar. We highly recommend the breakfast there too. My friend and I had a great experience there.
Location was perfecto! 10 mins walk to the city centre and the views are the best in all Taormina. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The shuttle to the beach was fantastic and the pool too was great to relax after exploring the city. I would definitely recommend hotel Mediterranee!
The hotel is very well located, just a five minutes’ walk to the many shops and restaurants of Taormina. You are without doubt here in one of the most beautiful spots of Sicily.
And the view from the room is magnificent: blue skies, the Mediterranean Sea and the mount Etna. Spectacular.
The best hotel in Taormina if you want luxury by the beach! The food is amazing, the buffet breakfast has with a view to die for. The staff are so friendly and helpful! Especially Gabriel from the pool, he really made our stay that much better! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
The friendly and helpful staff, the impeccable level of service, the unbeatable location, and the gorgeous property made our stay at Villa Fiorita unforgettable. We will recommend this hotel to all of our friends & family for a perfect stay in Taormina!
The location was pretty good, Taormina center.
Though it was a little bit difficult for me to find this accommodation since there was no sign because this is apartment type hotel, the owner kindly helped me to find it by sending several photos.
The front desk staff where excellent. Very friendly and very helpful with information around Castelmola and Taormina. This was the best hotel we stayed in during our two week trip to Sicily. The views from the pool and deck are incredible.
This is a fantastic family run hotel in the perfect location with a short walk from the centre of Taormina. The staff couldn't do enough for us and were warm and caring. Wouldn't hesitate to return for another visit.
Modern and clean room with a great view in an accessible location close to the centre of Taormina.
The receptionist had good recommendations and cheap parking was available adjacent to the hotel.
We love everything about this hotel. Every time we come to taormina we book this hotel. It is pricey but we have gone two years in a row for my birthday so its a special treat for us.
The hotelroom was a bit small, but having a terrace with views totally made up for that. Very nice hotel and staff and ideally located in the centre of Taormina.
