Taormina review

"Location is very nice"

The drinks are very expensive. Spirits and wine were also very expensive. The staff in the restaurant were not the happiest of people. The food was good, sweets were limited to cream filled cakes or icecream. Coffee at breakfast was served in open topped jugs which soon became cold. There is a swimming pool, however it was slowly being filled during our stay. The pool is detached from the hotel and is accessed by a lift, no robed are provided. There is a shuttle bus to town, but you do need to book your ride in both directions. The location is at the extreme outskirts of the town and is about a 15 minute drive. This hotel could be so much better if attention was paid to small details, hot food, cheery staff, better equiped rooms. I am sure that a better hotel could be found nearer to town.

"soloSicily reviewed by Giorgio Locatelli"

I have just returned from my first stay at Villa Olga from soloSicily. Having stayed all over Sicily for the past twelve years, this is the most relaxing and beautiful place that I have stayed in so far.The sea view is breath taking, the peace and quiet totally rejuvenating. Being five minutes drive from Porto Palo, which has the best beach in Sicily, but also is the hustle bustle of the port. The hospitality of Carola and Lillo (property owners) made me feel totally at home. I would reccomend a stay at Villa Olga to all.

What a beatiful place to spend days and nights, mondello offers all you need during the holiday, one day trip to the city centre is needed to see the other city attactions but what makes this city special is this little and peculiar piece of beach where there is so much on offer

boredom is not going to be a problem with loads to do for the grown ups and the little ones

Taormina review

"taormina"

94%
of reviewers would recommend this
resort to a friend

Open quote

Almost unavoidable on a stay in Taormina, the beach everyone raves about in is the one at Isolla Bella. You can see why though, as the views of the little cove with a small causeway out to an island as you enter Taormina are spectacular, it truly lives up to its name as something to look at.

In physical terms, the terrain is mid sized to large pebbles and at times going into the water can require some finesse and identifying the correct route. The slope once in the water is neither steep, nor shallow. There are a large number of larger rocks, including the island itself which do make interesting viewing whilst snorkelling.

Taormina review

"Royal Prisco Hotel"

94%
of reviewers would recommend this
resort to a friend

Open quote

Stepping from the near vertical street you'll find yourself in the hotel’s elegantly-styled lobby, where chandeliers and a marble staircase take centre-stage. The bedrooms, meanwhile, combine neutral colour schemes and vintage furniture. The real stand-out feature, though, is the view. The hotel's private terraces are full of overflowing flower boxes and enjoy a stunning view over Positano, with a glimpse of the sea too on the horizon. There isn’t a restaurant as such here, but breakfast is served in the dining room every day. As for lunch and evening meals, you’re not short on options. Positano is renowned for its great restaurants, so you can head out of the hotel and be eating fr

Only downside was that other beaches are just left in an unusable dirty mess. Plenty of good local restaurants and not many tourists made it a lovely relaxed week break. And the cable car trip to Erice was fantastic, totally undersold and well worth the effort tosee the medieval town at the top. Magical

Palermo review

Palermo is a really interesting city. There are some fascinating buildings but some have been left to get really run down which is a shame. Not many people speak English so some Italian will get you a long way. If a good deal comes up on ryanair it is well worth investigating.

Taormina Mare review

"Villa Belvedere"

100%
of reviewers would recommend this
resort to a friend

Open quote

Set in bloom-filled gardens, this family-run hotel is brimming with traditional charm. Dating back to the 19th-century, this hotel serves up a slice of authentic Italy. It features buttermilk walls and wrought-iron balconies wrapped in pinky purple bougainvillea. And it’s set in gardens that are as old as the property itself. The place has a modern face, too, though. It was renovated a few years ago, so you’ll find plenty of contemporary Mediterranean style among all the traditional touches. Take the bedrooms, for instance. They’re bright and airy spaces designed with relaxation in mind. Cue big beds, soft muslin curtains, and private balconies or terraces that look out over the gardens or the sea. Satellite TVs come as standard and air-conditioning is available for a little extra. Outside, a rectangular pool is framed by a greenery-rich terrace. Look one way and you’ll see tall pines and palms. Turn around and there’s nothing but uninterrupted sea views stretching all the way to Mount Etna. When you fancy swapping pool for beach, meanwhile, just follow the winding stone steps that lead down to the sea – or take the easy option and hop on the nearby cable-car. In terms of food, the Villa Belvedere keeps things simple. There’s a poolside restaurant serving up hot and cold breakfasts, as well as snacks throughout the day. For evening meals, though, you’ll need to head into Taormina itself. It’s only a five-minute walk away, and has a good supply of restaurants and trattorias serving up homemade pasta and fresh seafood.

Very interesting city, but a bit hectic! There are some good shops, but also some really run down areas. The big church is good, and the markets are good.
