Giarre is not a great tourist attraction. However it is a great center for touring East Sicily.
We found it very strange that Sicilians keep to their siesta even in winter. After sunset when it got very dark and a bit cold, we did not feel like going to a restaurant (they open at 6 or 7). So we cooked our dinners. Good for us, bad for them.

Giarre is a nice town, where you can enjoy a wonderful view of Etna (it happers like the best side to look at it), you are just around the corner from Taormina and Catania and you can easily access the sea by car.

Quiet desolate place with nothing to do. Boring.
Quiet desolate place with nothing to do. Boring.
On the other hand, it mightbe idea for anyone looking for a quiet place out of the way to spend a few days doing nothing. Our place had a pool (against separate payment which we found odd as we were never asked to pay elswhere. Pool was open to kids so be aware of this.

Nice base if you would like to visit the Etna.
Nice base if you would like to visit the Etna. Also the coast is not far away and with half an hour with scooter you're in Giardini Naxos (which is also recommended if you like a fishers/seaside town with a nice beach).
We stayed over at Giarre the days after we came from Catania to travel further to Taormina. Giarre itself doesn't have much to offer for tourists, but it's nice to see the more local center with less tourism and less traffic. We stayed at Moni Rooms for two nights which I would recommend to everyone who wants to visit Giarre!
Large appartement with very spacious rooms with homelike atmosphere. Super clean and tidy. Nice garden with astonishing view of Etna volcano. Prepared refreshment (fruits, sweets, ice cream) at the arrival. Friendly and helpful landlady.
Excellent location for discovering Sicily. Close to highway with short drive to Taormina, Catania, Syracuse and Etna volcano. Nice pebble beaches within 15 – 20 minute drive (car is necessary). Outside busy touristic areas where you will experience authentic Sicilian atmosphere.
Everything was excelent and even better than we expect. Host was really nice and kind. Refreshed few times all staff in refrigerator as water, ice tea etc. Also prepared surprice traditional cannoli rolls and offered us Limoncelo from his own until ours was cold enough. Also on breakfast he served us what we choose. Really nice bonus was access to the roof terrace with view on the see and Etna volcano. We can only recommed to others who wants to visit Giarre for good price and perfect service.
This is a superb small hotel, situated in a large orchard at the foot of Mount Etna. The room was fine--minimalist but large enough and with an excellent shower, but the reason to stay here is the outdoors. The pool is extraordinary, large enough for lap swimming and surrounded by comfortable lounge areas--and a terrific bar. And the restaurant is incredible: 2 star food in a 1 star setting (they're building a new restaurant facility on the property. We would return here in a heartbeat.
First we were greeted by our very friendly host. Room was amazing, spacious and very clean. We loved the rustic decoration and easy access to the terrace and amazing views of the nature. We would like to thank the host for the amazing suggestions eating out! Breakfast was great and got us kicking for a whole day visiting Etna. We think this was the nicest stay we had in Sicily and we wish we had booked more days to check the Petralava. Great work
Casa Giulia is located in an accessible and great part of Giarre. The apartment I stayed in was wonderful. It was spacious, comfortable, very clean and was ideal for 1 or 2 people, it even included a washing machine which was great because I stayed for 20 days.
The hosts Jessica and Marco were friendly, lovely to chat to, helpful and nothing was too much of a bother.
Next time I am in Giarre I will definitely return to Casa Giulia.
A very nice hotel just off a main road in Giarre. I was visiting cousins in the area and this hotel was very convenient for them to meet me. A very beautiful restoration of an old farmhouse. Great views of Etna in the distance. The grounds are very park-like and there is plenty of free parking. The dinner restaurant on the hotel property was great. Although there was an additional charge, breakfast was very good and well worth it.
A great family business. Excellent hospitality. An oasis of calm in a wonderful Sicilian architecture. Breakfast is hearty and very enjoyable in the backyard. The parking lot is large and comfortable. Rooms are big. Never be afraid to ask questions. They're also best to tell you the most local recommendations. You can also get an umbrella in hotel to use on the beach ;)The pool is small but enjoyable.
Enjoyed our stay at Zash, room was beautiful and very modern and unique which is why I booked at Zash. The setting is beautiful with orange orchard surrounding the hotel and our room. Pool is very nice also. Make a point to eat at the restaurant, the food was excellent! The free breakfast is delicious too, no surprise as it is coming out of a michelin star kitchen.
I personally recommend this property, we stayed for 3 nights and we enjoyed every single moment. The most important thing is that it’s very central and quiet place, the facilities are clean and work perfectly. The bed is comfortable and large. The bathroom modern and the shower works great. Next time we come to Giarre we are going to book the same property.
The apartment is very comfortable and equipped with all necessary. Has a safe parking. Beautiful views of Etna. It is way bigger than the pics show. Very nice, clean and modern. We spent lovely family Christmas week. Francesco was very helpful. Giarre had lots on and convenient location. Would recommend for a family stay.
Antonio is a super host. Very responsive and caring. The apartment is very spacious with high ceilings and freshly renovated. Super nice bathroom with big shower and bidet. Absolutely recommendable. Giarre is a perfect spot as a base for tours around Etna, the coastline and crowded Toarmina. I would come here again 👍
This stay was just amazing. Everything was perfect. There is absolutely nothing to complain about. Amazing hotel, breathtaking pool area, fenomenal food and last but not least super helpful and kind staff! Thanks a lot, we enjoyed every minute of our stay!
The location is excellent. Very quiet neighbourhood, absolutely safe within a residence called Kallipoli. Still, just a few minutes from the center of Giarre, and very close to the best touristic attractions (Taormina, Etna, etc.)
The host was really friendly and helpful. It was easy to communicate with despite the lack of a common language. Everything was clean and the kitchen was fully equipped. So far the best accommodation in Sicily.
