Eastern Sicily Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in Eastern Sicily, Italy

"One of the most beautiful "

"We made a last minute booking for our family at this hotel. The location was superb as was the quality of the hotel. The rooms felt very spacious and private, there was a great kids pool as well as a huge main pool and even a lovely seaside terrace with access to the ocean. The staff were incredibly attentive and helpful - they would do everything possible to help with our every request BUT there were not enough staff - particularly at the breakfast buffet. The staff were so overwhelmed and could not keep up with the demand which meant it could be hard to find a clean table, a plate or even sometimes food. There was also no children’s menu for dinners and the dinner service was late by UK kids standards. We have fussy eaters which meant this was very difficult for us to navigate. Again the staff were so great - always trying to help us. Food wise for the adults it was fabulous - we absolutely loved the Japanese restaurant right on the waters edge. It’s been an incredible holiday and I would highly recommend for families. "

"Beautiful hotel"

"If you are looking for a high end resort that is on the beach and away from the busyness of the city this is your place! A spectacular resort on the edge of the Ionian with spectacular panoramic views of Mount Etna, Isola Bella and the sea. Free shuttles are also available from the resort if you would like to venture into Taormina city. The food however on the resort is not as spectacular as the resort itself. "

"My partner and I stayed at the Villa Belvedere for a week in August 2025. The Villa Belvedere is absolutely beautiful, set in stunning gardens overlooking the bay, a short walk to the centre of Taormina. The staff are wonderful, friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and varied. The hotel’s interior is gorgeous and traditional. The rooms perfectly clean."

"The staff and the hotel were amazing. Walking distance to the doumo square and near by a lot of restaurants. You can drop off your car at the front and they will park it for you."

"Lovely hotel in the perfect location. Very walkable but far enough away from the main crowded street. The staff were excellent! They even helped us get a reservation that were struggling to get and brought hot water with lots of lemons and honey when my throat was bothering me. Breakfast was also a highlight!"

"Great hotel with great mount Etna view. Clean and spacious rooms. Restaurant was excellent! Food was amazing! Walkable distance to about anything. Definitely would recommend this place! "

"Fab location near Porta Messina with a shop just down the road. Easy walk to the main street, restaurants and to the cable car to the beach. Friendly and helpful staff at reception and at breakfast."
