Location is fantastic, in a quiet part of Taormina with fantastic views over the coast towards Italy. A short walk up to the main town, up a number of steps (needs a reasonable level of fitness) and restaurants and the top of the cable car down to the beaches. If you walk down from the gate you can also walk directly to the beaches although the pathway is steep. Villa facilities were excellent with multiple sitting areas, sunbeds and the seasonal pool was lovely to cool off in. Kitchen had everything we needed, and was modern with a large fridge freezer, oven/hob, and dishwasher, and outside in the utility area was a washing machine. Hosts were there when we arrived, very friendly explained how everything worked, and handed over the keys (And a bottle of fizz, and some essentials - nice touch). We had a fabulous 1 week stay, and enjoyed everything about the villa.

Villa with pool and large garden with Mediterranean essences, situated in a quiet and very panoramic area just a few steps from Corso Umberto and the Greek Theater. The layout of the rooms includes 2 large and bright double bedrooms and a bright single room, for a total of 5 beds, two bathrooms, kitchen and living room, as well as a patio and outdoor terraces. All the rooms have openings towards the garden. The villa, pool and garden are exclusive to guests. The villa is sanitized with products approved by the World Health Organization before each guest arrives to ensure everyone's safety From the private covered car park, the villa is reached via a downhill staircase, typical of the Taormina area, and is not suitable for people with mobility difficulties. Bus terminal at 100 meters, Taormina-Mazzarò cable car at 300 meters, Corso Umberto at 500 meters, Greek Theater at 700 meters. Beaches of Isolabella and Mazzarò at 700/800 meters easily reachable on foot through a road and a panoramic stairway. The villa was completely renovated in February 2019 and was used that year for the first time as a holiday home.
We do this work with love and we will be happy to welcome you in our villa equipped with all comforts to make you feel in an exclusive and peaceful environment, where you can enjoy a breathtaking view. For us the guest is sacred and should be treated as such. At the check-in it is necessary to show a photo ID for each guest in order to proceed with the registration. Smoking is allowed, but only in the garden, not inside the rooms.
The villa is located in Via Guardiola Vecchia, on a hill surrounded by greenery where the most beautiful villas of Taormina are located, which slopes down to the sea towards the beaches of Isolabella and Mazzarò. A few meters from the villa you will find restaurants, bars, museums and the most famous monuments including the Greek Theater, Palazzo Corvaja, the Public Garden. You can leave your car in our private covered parking, reach the Corso Umberto, which is the good living room of the city and move easily on foot along the narrow streets and stairways that characterize Taormina.
