Amazing views, staff, rooms and food! Highly recommend to anyone staying in Taormina. Easy walk into town and all the shops and dining but close enough to beaches. Pool views are incredible. Very accommodating for food allergies.

An excellent overall resort experience
An excellent overall resort experience (not just a place to stay). The food in both restaurants was amazing. The service was phenomenal, the room was super clean, newly renovated with amazing views. There is a 15 mins walk to the town ares and the beach is difficult to get to (I think the same for most resorts in the area). The hotel has a shuttle but it runs once every hour with limited space.

Instantly one of our favorite hotels we have ever been in. Staff and the room were amazing, view is incredible. We thoroughly e joyed our time there especially by the pool and eating overlooking the sea. Not a far walk to town but a bit uphill. Poolside service and restaurant could have been better though.

This property was beautiful and clean. The breakfast in the morning was amazing with incredible views. The restaurant on the property was delicious. The staff was friendly and they went above and beyond to make us comfortable.
The location was perfect with a short walk to the main town and to the bus terminal.
The pool and grounds of the hotel were stunning.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Taormina. I hope to come back one day.

Wonderful staff with warm welcome. Property is well designed with good thought into interior design colours. 10 minute walk from Taormina. Lovely views over the sea. Pool has great outlook. Terrace room was decent size. It is on the hillside. Food good. Drinks pricey (but in line with 5* hotels there. Think central London prices. Ditto food). Terrace bar not open. Overall, really liked the hotel and staff, especially at front desk, were top notch. Recommended.

The property is spectacular, amazing location, love the layout, views and amenities. All the staff are exceptional, especially Virginia, Fabio, Luigi and the driver.
Few areas you might want to look at, placing guests into the rooms promised in their booking, I indicated the trip was a birthday trip and thought there would be some kind of special greeting, food or beverage, I can’t articulate it but it didn’t feel 5 star, and lastly the exercise room is substandard, broken equipment, lack of equipment and is a shame because it’s a mismatch to the rest of the property and with such a beautiful view.

This Hotel has is all. In my opinion the best location in Taormina, with an unmatched view of the coastline and still just steps away from the beautiful streets of the town. The rooms are fresh and very modern, the amenities are exquisite and the staff so attentive and discrete polite that you really feel you’re a royal in your own castle at this hotel. I travel A LOT and visit 5 stars hotel often around the World. I can honestly say that this hotel is rated top 5 so far in my career. We stayed here 4 nights in September, part business and pleasure. I brought my wife and she completely agrees, this has been an exceptional experience from A to Z. I cannot praise the staff enough, especially the staff at the breakfast restaurant (by itself the best breakfast in years). They were so attentive, polite and discrete. Super professional but warm and caring. We will definitely come back here next time we’re in Sicilia.

If you want a relaxing holiday avoid this hotel. The hotel is going through major renovations which is not highlighted on their website. Most of the rooms near ours were being renovated and there was major work being done on the outside areas. It’s like being in a construction site! The hotel should have been closed and the job done properly. Check if work is still underway before you book.

Simply Amazing!
Magnificent! Everything from the moment of arrival was beyond our expectations. The staff was incredible especially Virginia with Guest Services, Marco the bar manager and Andreas at the front desk.
A shuttle into town and back to the hotel was great as its quite a treacherous dangerous walk to town. But the luxury Mercedes van goes back and forth on the hour up to 10pm.
The room was spectacular. We were in 514. Gorgeous view and stunning bathroom! Very quiet. Newly renovated. Crisp clean and beautiful.
I will add photos of our view and room but this app is not letting me add them but i will try again as they are truly spectacular

The hotel is very pretty and well kept in the common areas but not in the rooms. They need to do serious plumbing work in the bathrooms, since you cant keep a water temperature steady, you either burn or get a cold shower. Also the shower space is very small and slippery. This was very annoying!!
Also our air conditioning clogged up and water started pouring from the ceiling, thankfully the problem was resolved and air condition worked well after that.
For being a 5 star hotel, they have terrible pillows and mattress. We stayed 3 nights and never changed our sheets.
Also if you need a hair dryer don’t count on it, it is very bad quality and barely blows hot air, leaving your hair with a lot of frizz. They could upgrade the hair dryers!!
Staff was not very helpful in the front desk!!
Restaurant was very good and nice staff.
