We reserved two rooms for 4 nights for two adults and two children and we absolutely loved the authenticity of dear Pina's charming home, giving us a real sense of life in Taormina, while also feeling like pampered guests, with a personability that cannot be matched by any hotel. Incredible of Mount Etna, beautiful and eclectic decorations, very homey feeling while also being spotlessly clean and comfortable. Pina and her staff were exceptionally kind, beautiful people who attended to our every need and provided us with a lot of information about the best places to eat, visit and ways to get around! A true gem of a place and particularly loved having my coffee on the balcony. The location is also great, if one doesn't mind walking up a very short but steep hill of steps from the center of town (less than 5 minutes). Quiet, private and safe too!

That we had to leave! I would recommend this place for families or friends traveling together, as it's small enough for privacy and comfort but large enough to accommodate other people, as there are 3-4 rooms so it may make some people feel it's too close for comfort.

The villa is gorgeous, with a vintage appeal and unique features. We stayed in the green room which had an amazing view from the balcony. There were a lot of art pieces in the room and it was just tasteful! The bed quite comfortable and big, huge bathroom with bathtub and everything equipped, really cozy and warm. It felt quite like home. Signora Pina is a wonderful host, very helpful and welcoming. Same goes for the lady bringing us breakfast and cleaning our room daily. We had breakfast every morning on the balcony belonging to the shared living room - and we’d get a nice spread to be enjoyed in the sun. It’s short distance to the main street - Corso Umberto, using a shortcut (6 min or so), but if you take the main route, it can get difficult with the luggage & walking as it’s on the hillside (just like everything else in Taormina). Eveything looks just like the pictures! 😃

Not much here, except maybe the breakfast that was not as diverse from day to day (we did have pastries, savory bites and few slices of fruits). Also the portions a bit small, but if you ask, they can bring you more or extra stuff. And we did notice few ants in the bed in some days. All good either way, nothing major!

Pina was a wonderful and welcoming host who gave us great suggestions for exploring the town, helped us make bookings, and made us feel at home in her beautiful house. The breakfast was an excellent Italian style meal with free flowing coffee! It set us up for the day perfectly. The air conditioning worked wonders even during the heat wave and when the water was shut off for the whole city due to wildfires, Pina had a fantastic back up system that meant we could still shower as normal. She went above and beyond to make our stay in Taormina perfect!

Nothing could be better - we love your home!

The B&B is located outside the busy streets of Taormina itself and only at max a 10 minute walk away from all the hustle and bustle, so as a location this was great for us! On a good day you can see the Etna from the main area when enjoying your breakfast. Sadly we were not able to experience this due to bad weather... Still the view shorter by was beautiful. Pina, the host, is just great! She is the definition of what you seek in a B&B host, she lives for her guests/the town/Taormina and Sicily in general! If you are seeking for an eclectic but romantic room and you appreciate what you see on the pictures of the rooms it is also exactly that what you are going to get. My girlfriend loved it! Pina offers a seperate parking area a bit further if you want which was quite handy. There are parking areas in Taormina but surely not as close as the one she can provide. This is a 50/50 (see negatives after), but Pina did offer fruits and healthy options in her breakfast.

The room was smaller and less "easy to use" as we are used to. We were travelling with 2 large suitcases and a lot of clothing for a 14-day trip so that was a bit difficult. As with other B&B's in Sicily there was quite the minereal build up around the showerhead + the shower leaked at the bottom into the bathroom. The leak was not enormous but enough to warrant an extra towel to be used... The bathroom is not adjacent to the bedroom. In the end it did not pose the largest of problems/issues, but it's a small inconvenience on a personal level. The other 50 of the 50 - just as other breakfasts also Pina's was, aside from the fruits, on the sweeter side of what I'm used to.

It was a pleasure to stay in Pina’s house. The full house, rooms and balcony were very stylish, comfortable and clean. You can plunge into the atmosphere of Sicilian lifestyle. Pina’s motto “Mia casa e la tua casa”. She was very warm and helpful. While breakfast you can enjoy the view of Etna. Villa close to the centre. One minus it can be more fruits on breakfast. Grazie Pina

super accommodation, Pina and her lady helper were perfect. a wonderful stay in Taormina. we were truly spoilt. thank you. the breakfasts were fabulous lots of choice fresh and scrumptious.

nothing. but please avoid CityBySee they overbook. we lost 40 euros to do Godfather Tour. wanted to change us to next day but we could not as leaving. they would not refund. my partner has made complaint to the company and written to Taormina community, so sorry Pina, we love you, but we were so upset and disappointed we were treated this way by this company. leaves a bad taste which was a super fabulous stay with you

Pina is a gracious host who has a beautiful home. It's like a museum of Sicilian culture! Her housekeeper works hard to be sure the place is clean. Breakfast is well balanced and delicious. The views from the balcony of Etna and the surroundings are exceptional. Pina is very knowledgeable and provided useful info about the town. We would certainly choose her place again!

Take a taxi from the train station or bus depot. We made the mistake of walking from the bus depot with heavy packs. It's well worth the 15 Euros to get here! (This was our fault not the host).

When you enter it feels like you’re right in the heart of Sicily. The service was exceptional and the owner was very kind!

This B&B is excellently located in Taormina. We slept in the blue room and had a very nice stay here. Breakfast is more than enough and very tasty, you can have breakfast with a view of Mount Etna. It is very quiet at night to sleep, the bed is very comfortable. Pina is a super good hostess, she takes excellent care of her guests. I lost my wallet in Taormina and thanks to her I have it back in my possession. Grazie mille Pina!

Our stay at this beautiful and tastefully decorated home was simply perfect. The host, Pina, is an absolute delight and helped us immensely with great ideas on where to go and what to do. Our room, which had its own en-suite bathroom, was spacious, immaculately clean and comfortable, the view from the balcony was stunning and the property is a mere 5 minutes away from the main part of town. If you're coming by car, the host can sort out parking just down the road.

We loved everything.
