    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    A big, beautiful pool and incredible views of Mount Etna make this hotel a hit with guests.

    Perched on a hillside, this hotel overlooks the Ionian Sea. Taormina’s lively main drag is just a couple of minutes’ walk up the hill. Meanwhile, the hotel has a shuttle bus that’ll take you to the beach.

    The pool here’s a real showstopper. It juts out over the hillside, giving you views to nearby Mount Etna. For meals, there’s a breakfast room serving huge buffet breakfasts, and a snack bar with a terrace.

    While you're away, you can speak to us anytime - we're available 24/7 via the TUI App, phone, SMS and email. The easy-to-use TUI App is also packed with info and tips. It sends you important updates, like your airport transfer times, too.

    Amazing hotel!

    We were surprised with this hotel, it's located in a very beautiful place and just a 2 minute walk to Corso Umberto, the main walking street in Taormina. You get spectacular views both from the room and the pool. Been already twice before to Taormina but this hotel was next level! We will definitely visit again!
    Nice stay in Taormina

    Booked at very short notice when our trip to Portugal was cancelled. Didn’t have much time to research but despite this we chose a really nice hotel. The hotel is positioned half way up the cliff face. The lobby is on the top floor and then you descend to the rooms and the pool. The lift is on the outside so you have a great view as you go up and down. We had a junior suite with a terrace. It’s huge. So much space. Even has a walk-in wardrobe. The terrace is also huge with space for 2 loungers and table & chairs. The view across the bay is spectacular. The decor is plain and dated but clean and well-kept. The hotel is on the edge of the town and it takes just a few minutes to reach the bars, cafes, restaurants and shops in the old lanes. It’s uphill from the hotel and a little steep in places. But not that bad. It’s accessible by car down a narrow street. Our driver was able to drop us off outside the door. But our pick-up driver refused to drive down and we had to drag our suitcases up the hill to his car in 30 degree heat. Not impressed but that’s not the hotel’s fault. The hotel seemed quite. And most days the loungers around the pool were full. I wonder what it’s like when it’s busy because there just wouldn’t be enough room for everyone. We could get drinks and snacks from the pool bar. The main bar and restaurant were both closed because of COVID which was a shame. Would have been nice to enjoy a drink on their terrace overlooking the bay. We had a great stay. Highly recommended.
    Lovely hotel but interesting location

    Yes, it's nice...hangs over cliff with entry on top floor (9) and breakfast on 8th floor. But the driveway getting to the entrance is steep and long which means some problems with luggage and, especially, walking into town for touring. Steep! Long. And we had problems at the breakfast buffet when a large tour group had basically denuded about every platter, bowl, ability to brew coffee ... and it was a very long time before any staff appeared to rectify the situation and, even then, it was one person where more were needed. Otherwise, it's a really nice place to stay.
    Awesome experience

    Fantastic location up on the hill.Spacious room with great view from windows and balconies.Beach and Mt Etna can be viewed from the room itself from the top of the hill. Tea/coffee makers are in the room and complete toiletries available in the bathroom. No air conditioning though,only heater.And I presume they may not be needing air conditioning except for July -August. Very good room service.Extremely helpful reception staff .Great breakfast buffet. Centrally located so easy access to all city center shops and restaurants. Remember hotel serves only sandwiches in the bar at other times. One negative point is one has to park the car at the top and climb down the slope which is steep.It might be inconvenient for elderly people or people with knee/hip problems or arthritis.But they have a van to transport luggage which can be availed of by guests in need. Overall an amazing place.
    A GREAT place

    Wow! What a great view, great room, great staff and great breakfast! I cannot say enough about the place. Steep driveway, but nothing too difficult, and close to the center of town, easy walking distance. Cannot wait to return!
