Carmelo 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.
Lovely big balcony and view. Property is sufficient for what we needed and close to funicular to city centre, bus routes and shop.

Honestly 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.

Left a bit of our hearts in Isola Bella
The 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. 💜
We have really enjoyed our stay at Carmelo's property. The view from the patio is breathtaking!

Great apartment
The 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.

The location of this apartment is special. The view from the expansive balcony is like a scene out of a movie, but even more spectacular. It is located a short distance from the beach, train station, wonderful restaurants and shopping.
We found the apartment to be spotless upon arrival. All the essentials such as towels, a fully loaded kitchen, coffee, snacks, and toothbrushes
were proved.
The host, Carmelo was very nice and made sure our stay would be a special one.
We look forward to booking our next stay there.

Perfect Stay With the Best View
We had the best time in this apartment. It truly is a home away from home! The owner is welcoming. The apartment is clean and has everything you need. The location is perfect. There are markets nearby, steps to the beach and the funicular to take you up to Taormina. The best part is of course - your huge, private patio with views of the Isola. We woke every morning to views of the ocean from our bed and spent every evening enjoying the sunsets on the patio. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Grazie Carmelo!

A bit of paradise
This apartment is very comfortable and well equipped, with an absolutely magical view! The location is perfect with easy access to the bus stops and taxi stands. The funicular is very close but was not in operation during our stay. The beach is across the street and down the stairs and there are lots of beach chairs and umbrellas as well as restaurants. Some of the best restaurants in Taormina are within a block or so of the property. The stairs up to Taormina are long and steep but close by.
Our hosts were very welcoming and helpful.
The best part is the enormous private terrace with lemon trees and flowers and a breathtaking view of Isola Bella and the blue sea! We definitely recommend this lovely place and hope to return!

Unbelievable view!
I had a wonderful week in Mazarro! This apartment is a mix of original old world charm and modern conveniences. It was nice to have a very comfortable and real queen sized bed (not 2 twins pushed together) and a generous supply of extra towels, bedding, nice smelling soaps and ample kitchen supplies. There was plenty of hot water and good lighting in the bathroom. It was like visiting your sweet grandmother at her beach house and feeling her warm welcome. There were many thoughtful touches like water in the fridge, a basket of fruit, snacks, an extra toothbrush and paste. Nothing was overlooked. Carmelo and Francesca are as Sicilians are in general the warmest hearted people I’ve met. And the direct and unobstructed view of Isolabella took my breath away and I couldn’t stop looking at it in amazement. It was a down home and comfortable stay and I couldn’t ask for more!

On Top of the World
The location was perfect with breathtaking view . Apt was clean & spacious! Lots of steps to get up to apt but worth it! Very comfortable with AC. Great communication from owner.
Spacious 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.

Perfect location, amazing view and huge terace
The best advantage of the apartment is its location. Directly opposite Isola Bella Island and the beach. Close to restaurants, cafes, and shops where you can buy the essentials. Also next to the apartment there is a bus stop for buses, including intercity buses, and Hip off-Hip on. A 5-minute walk away from the Cable Car, which can take you up to Taormina. Lido Spisone Beach can also be reached on foot in 30 minutes. But keep in mind the heavy traffic in the season, the narrow road with no sidewalks. The apartment is in good condition and equipped with everything you need for your stay. Clean and comfortable. A stunning view opens from the terrace! There are many green plants and trees growing on the terrace. And even a grapefruit and lemon tree. We want to thank Mr. Ruggeri Carmelo for the welcome. He gave detailed instructions. Check-in and check-out with minimal effort. My family and I had a great week!

Toller Aufenthalt
Die Wohnung ist wie auf den Fotos beschrieben, wunderbar gelegen und Carmelo ist ein wirklich toller, freundlicher, offener, zuverlässiger und aufmerksamer Host. Das Check-in war total entspannt, es gab einige schöne Annehmlichkeiten von Carmelo zurechtgelegt und eine Liste mit Ausflugsziele in der Nähe. Zusätzlich hatte er Einkaufstipps, Restauranttipps und generell konnte er uns super unterstützen.
An der Straße befinden sich kleine Minimärkte, der Zugang über Stufen zum Strand, die Seilbahn nach Taormina und einige Restaurants. Die Parkplatzsituation war interessant, jedoch hatten wir größtenteils Glück und mussten nie weit laufen. Die Wohnung ist super ausgestattet und sauber, nach kurzer Zeit schon fühlt man sich wie Zuhause. Hervorzuheben ist auch die große und schöne Terrasse mit dem schönsten Ausblick überhaupt. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiter!

Beautiful view on the Isola Bella!
A gigantic private terrace with a view on the sea. You literally could hear the crashing of the waves, while you enjoyed the view on the peninsula. We had a lot of space in the clean flat which has unique and old furniture. The owner, Carmelo, was very friendly and sympathetic. Altogether it was one of our best and beautiful vacations!
