"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."
"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!"
"Lovely stay! The Etna views from our room and the hotel in general were amazing. Really helpful staff and easy to get into Taormina. Short stroll up the hill and you’re in Castelmola which is also a beautiful little town. Would definitely recommend staying."
"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."
"This is an incredible gem of an hotel. The location is just steps away from the pedestrian area of Taormina; the staff were tremendously helpful; the views are to die for. Excellent breakfast with views of the sea and Mt Etna and happy hour (with complimentary snacks) in the same location. Cannot recommend it highly enough."
Lush gardens skirt a cobbled lane facing this triumph of Roman engineering that once carried the town’s water. An ancient wall today hoists modern buildings.
