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.
We decided spontaneously to stay a night in Taormina ( wow what a piece of heaven)
And booked a room at the hotel… when we arrived they upgraded our room to the best room we ever stayed in our mid long life… open sea view From every window and a big and amazing terrace!!!!
They saw that it is my husband birthday so they spoiled us with a wonderful cold ice champagne!!!!
Wowwww!!!
The breakfast is off course wonderful and the pool area also 5 star experience!!
We are counting the minutes to come back!!
This is an exceptional property with a spectacular view of Taormina and Mt Etna and yet another example of the wonderful properties that we stayed in whilst traveling around Sicily. Whilst the hotel was a little dated we loved its ambience, the welcoming staff and the generous breakfasts that we enjoyed on the patio overlooking the pool. Parking on the property was an added bonus. We highly recommend this property and would go back again in a heartbeat.
The hotel is so homely! Decorated in the most beautiful artwork. It's also one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed. The location was perfect - an extremely short walk to the centre of Taormina. The views from the rooftop were amazing - I just wish I had more time to utilise it! The staff were so helpful - Luca especially was available to discuss and make suggestions to our group at any time via WhatsApp. It exceeded my expectation.
Great boutique Hotel, very well located adjacent to the main pedestrian street of Taormina.
Very elegant and neat. clean, spotless bathroom and toilets.
Great breakfast.
Very nice rooftop terrace.
Elevator and Garage car park.
But the best part is the staff!
Thank you Giuseppe for your great hospitality and attention.
Thank you Gatzia for all the breakfast traets :).
We will surely come back.
Arrivederci
The view from our room (24) was spectacular. This small hotel is a gem with very helpful staff, a beautiful courtyard that comes with a friendly dog and our room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast included the usual pastries plus eggs, yogurts, bacon and fruit. Coffee was delicious and made as ordered. The hotel is across the street from the bus station and well located within Taormina.
The location is ideal. You have beach access and a free shuttle to Taormina that leaves regularly. The hotel is cute, and the service was great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely stay here again! I had a room on the ground floor on the back side but would recommend getting the sea view with a balcony, as they get more light.
Amazing sea views from hotel rooms and restaurant, the hotel is standing virtually on the beach, very helpful staff & great quality of service, great location in terms of proximity to the train station, Taormina, cable car, etc. Having our own crag on the beach was an unexpected bonus! Breakfast and lunches with amazing sea views were great!
Beautiful hotel with very helpful staff. Perfect location with outstanding views !! Shops and restaurants within short walking distance and the hotel staff were so acomodating with parking our car for us at a nearby parking facility. We will definitely stay here again for our next trip to Taormina. Rooftop restaurant was also 10/10.
The location was optimal with just a 5 minute walk to the city Centre. We travelled to Taormina mostly for a concert at the old theatre so the hotel was only a few minutes walk away. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful; sharing very useful information and offering tours for various attractions around the area.
Perfect Location. Private Beach with a bar, chairs and umbrellas with a view of Islo Bella. Infinity Pool overlooking Bay of Naxos and Mt Etna with poolside bar service. Pool area had plenty of chairs with stunning views. Staff very attentive. The hotel had a free shuttle service to Taormina.
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 was beautiful and comfortable. Rooms were clean and bathroom was spacious, clean and had everything you’d ever need. We had a big balcony overlooking Taormina and the water which was so nice. I could have stayed longer. The breakfast was also an added bonus!
Angelo! was the greatest! I hope the owners know what an asset he is to the property. He is the face of Taormina Garden Hotel.
We also liked the landscaping and the private/public beach was awesome.
The cable car close by made going to Taormina a delight!
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 location was perfect for us in Taormina, close to walk to shops and restaurants. We chose this hotel as we had 2 teens with us and it had a pool. We opted for the best rooms and the views were spectacular! The rooms were clean and tidy.
Great value hotel located in beautiful Taormina. Fantastic views of Taormina, Mount Etna, and the lovely coastline of Giardini-Naxos from the breakfast dining area and from our private terrace. Beautiful gardens and views.
Super cute hotel with a unique garden.
We loved everything about the property.
it’s very authentic and right in the Center of Taormina.
Rohid was the best host ever.
