Aristocratic villa with private pool and garden

Beautiful Sicilian house with great landscape, terraces and view. Nicely located not far from Taormina. A view of Mt. Etna and so many other wonderful things to discover in the gardens around the property…. Our host Marinella was warm and welcoming and always quick to respond to our questions. There is a wonderful bakery just a short drive from the house and we enjoyed our morning coffee with the best Biscotti I have ever had while looking at the most amazing views from every corner of this home. Should we ever have a chance to return to Sicily, this home would be where we would stay. There was absolutely nothing not to like about this property.

The pool was too cold (12C) and wasn’t useable. Three sun beds for accommodation sleeping 8 seemed strange. The listing says there are three full bathrooms but there are not - the en-suite only has a toilet and basin. The road is busy 24/7 and seemed busiest through the night with lorries at full rev as they get round the corner and up the hill. Therefore this villa was not for us but there are many positives that might outweigh these points for some people. It was clean, had a full kitchen and the winter garden was lovely.

The owner is very nice, no question. The house itself is very charming with a nice view. But the property is far from what was advertised and definitely not worth the price. Outdoor equipment was missing, pool liner all wobbly and more importantly: the house is located near a road with heavy traffic day and night. It was impossible to have quiet moment during the day or sleep at night.

The host was very kind and helpful to localize the place. While the house itself is full of charm, the big issue we had is that it is located just in front of a road with heavy traffic day and night. Absolutely not a minute of silence, we could barely sleep. And the AC in the room are so noisy you can’t use it while you are in the house.There were a lot of outdoor equipments and furniture that was missing too.

Great villa - it's tucked away off a main road. The villa itself is much bigger than it looks in the photos. The bedrooms are spacious but basic. The pool and BBQ area is lovely - we spent all of our time there. It's located next to a few small villages and towns but also it's easy to get to Taormina and Naxos. The hosts were so lovely during check in and gave us a tour of the house - really nice people. It was easy to locate and we really enjoyed our stay.

It was a privilege to stay in this grand old Sicilian Villa steeped in history. We loved the period features and furniture which worked well with modern facilities. The pool and view of Mt Etna were amazing.

We had an amazing stay at Ville Voces! The villa is stunning, even more beautiful than in the photos, and fully equipped with everything you might need. Victor and Marinella were also incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with. There’s plenty to do in the area, and everything is easily accessible by car. While there was some traffic outside the villa, we hardly noticed it after the first day. All in all, we had a fantastic week and truly hope to come back soon!

It was a very pleasant stay. The house is well-equipped and private. The road is a little noisy, but nothing bad. Convenient supermarket nearby, and easy to get to Naxos, Toarmina, and other cities. Cooking was very pleasant. Small addition: Larger glasses would be great, as would an ice cube maker and a shampoo and shower gel holder in the bathrooms.

Villa Voces is an authentic Sicilian villa. You have a wonderful view of Mount Etna, we were lucky enough to see a slight eruption, it was spectacular! The kitchen is fully equipped. It was immaculately clean as was the bedding & towels. The pool area was great for sitting & drink coffee & wine… lots of it from Lidl which is only down the road! The villa is on an exceptionally busy road & you can not walk anywhere so you definitely need a car. The air con is also very loud but kind of lulls you to sleep! Overall a wonderful place to stay.

Good Location but on a busy road. Met by Victor and Marinella at the property who showed us around and also made us welcome with some basic essentials to start our stay. They are both happy to help with any queries. Property well maintained and the gardener ensures that the pool and gardens are kept clean and tidy. Unless you are up very early you are not likely to see him. Only one suggestion is that the property requires a medium size cooking pan. If parking use the road along side the property and walk across the small footbridge, it's a lot easier than parking at the property. If you want to go out for a meal, a good value local restaurant is in Piedimonte Etneo Ristorante Pizzeria Da Gianluca. For a more upmarket restaurant try Al Saraceno in Castelmola. Better to drive there rather than walk the 543 steps up from Taormina.

Beautiful and well appointed property, very welcoming hosts. A wonderful holiday haven

The villa was amazing, beautiful with picture opportunities around every corner. We had everything we needed and the hosts were brilliant and very friendly. I would highly recommend it.
