Stayed Sep 29, 2021Spacious apartment and terrace with a splendid view, useful location for both the beaches and the old city. The only con I would mention is the lack of duvets for sleeping and the usage of sheets instead, although I'm well aware this is rather a cultural issue and may not be regarded by all guests the same way as by us. Overall a highly recommendable choice to stay in Taormina.

Stayed Jul 14, 2025Everything was amazing, Carmelo is a great host who made sure to welcome us personally. The apartment is very spacious and equipped with everything that is needed. The terrace is so big and the view is so incredibly beautiful that it was hard to believe this is all for us! We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Stayed Jul 2, 2025A perfect location, walkable to the beach of Isola Bella and only a cable car or bus ride away from the town centre. Stunning and very large private terrace overlooking the sea. All air conditioned, comfortable and clean. My only suggestion would be to have include a microwave.

Stayed Jun 17, 2025The property was as advertised and shown in the listing, it is spacious and has a fantastic terrace. Carmelo (host) was extremely helpful meeting us when we arrived and showing us around the apartment. The decor is very traditional, comfortable and has everything that you need. The only point that we would make is perhaps the outside furniture could do with an upgrade and an additional lounger.All in all, a lovely property in a fantastic location.

Stayed May 30, 2025Absolutely fantastic stay at what must be one of the best locations in Taormina.Carmelo was ill the day of our check in but his lovely sister, Francesca met us for a very easy check in.The huge terrace is simply fantastic and it’s perfect for an early morning coffee or that last glass of wine. We never tired of that view!If you are able to book it, you won’t be disappointed. We would come back in a heartbeat.Thank you for hosting us in such a fantastic apartment.

Stayed Apr 12, 2025Carmelo was very accommodating. He allowed us to check in early, explained everything we needed to do during our stay. He was only a few minutes away if we had any problem and came over very quickly. A really nice man. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.

Stayed Sep 21, 2024We had a great time in Taormina Mazzaro and were frequent at the lovely beach (gravel/pebble) nearby the Isola bella. Since we had a rental car, which was no problem with parking following the advice of our Host, we spent also a lot of time traveling around. Thanks to Carmelo Ruggeri!

Stayed Sep 3, 2024Honestly we could not have been happier. The most magical location and beautiful, traditional home. We absolutely adored our week here and would absolutely come again in a heart beat! This beautiful space is incredibly value for money being minutes from the beach and the cable car to Taormina.

Stayed Jul 4, 2024The most beautiful, breathtaking, phenomenal, magistical, stunning view of Isola Bella. The apartment is well equipment and the beds super comfy. The aircon provided much needed respite from the summer temperatures ( early July). The terrace offers outside dining or aperitifs with the best view. There is a lift to help you up those last few stairs to the apartment after slogging the stairs to and from the beach ( which are very worth every step). Make sure to take your beach shoes ( the rocks are a hard on your feet without them) and a snorkel and mask. Nothing was too big a problem for Carmelo, who without hestitation, came out at midnight to fix something for us. The apartment is close to the cable car up to Taormina ( runs from 8 am to 1am) or there are regular busses from right outside the apartment door. Be prepared to want to come back. ?

Stayed May 13, 2024The apartment is Traditional Sicilian, spacious, clean, well equipped and benefits from an elevator. The host is Carmelo, a really nice guy who offers a very warm welcome. The views of Isola Bella and surrounding mountains from the balcony are stunning. The beach is stony so take beach shoes. The Isola Bella has a visitor centre with a fee of 5€ (super value) There are minimarkets, restaurants and snack bars in the immediare vicinity. Taormina is popular with tourists and this is wher e the bus terminal is. There are bus stops within a short walking distance of the apartment but we found the timetables confusing and sometimes misleading so waiting at a stop for an hour or more was normal. Also if you use the bus not all of them accept cards so have cash ready. Overall, it was a great pleasure staying at Gianni house and meeting Carmelo.
