A wonderful stay! We spent three nights there and would have loved to stay longer. The hotel is situated on a vast property with beautifully manicured gardens. The pool is huge. The beach is just a few meters away and easily accessible. The food and service were excellent. We would return without hesitation!

I didn’t want to leave! This is a beautiful hotel with what feels like botanical gardens, an amazing pool and right on the beach with Etna always visible. The staff are all super friendly from reception, to the pool bar to the wine bar, and can help to book taxis. The pool and main restaurant served great food and if you want a cheaper meal there is a local restaurant next door on the beach. It is quite remote if you don’t have a car so ensure to book taxis early as they are pricey. We walked to Naxos along the beach where you have to wade through a river but it was less than an hour. Calatabiano train station is a difficult walk so worth getting a taxi

Really beautiful property. The pool was a nice perk. The room was very spacious. I would suggest maybe a robe and slippers for guest. I have no complaints though. The staff were very friendly, food tasted wonderful and it was only maybe 15 minutes from Taormina.

This was the most amazing hotel… staff were so friendly and helpful. They could not have been more friendly or helpful. The grounds were so charming and not too manicured but beautifully kept and tidy. The birdsong all day was just delightful. The pool area was so clean & felt luxurious. The smell through the hotel was gorgeous. Not the cheapest but you definitely get what you pay for and it was all worth it! Only slight negative was the lack of plug sockets but given the property is over 300 years old it’s forgivable and was still very manageable! And the AC was amazing which I did not expect given the age of the property! We would return in a heartbeat!! And we got engaged here so would love to return!

The resort is like a gorgeous and peaceful oasis near the frenzied touristy Taormina. The location was like a movie set Italian villa. The staff were excellent, the room was clean and lovely. The morning breakfast was outstanding. Would stay again and again.

We had a really lovely stay for 2 nights at this hotel. We stayed in an executive junior suite, it was the renovated room in the photos. The pool was very big and the grounds of the hotel are beautiful. Had a nice dinner at the restaurant and great cocktails at the bar. The hotel had an event on each night which was a bit noisy at times but it didn’t bother us at all, was fun to see what was going on. There’s a nice little casual seafood restaurant a short walk away if you wanted a change from the hotel. Breakfast omelette was good. The hotel doesn’t offer complementary drinking water (other than one bottle on arrival) so recommend stocking up before you arrive (or a short drive to local supermarket in Giardini Naxos). The beach is not a pretty sandy beach, we visited once but it was so painful under foot we didn’t return. Would highly recommend the hotel for a relaxing couple of nights.

Absolutely charming - the perfect combination of modern resort amenities with old world ambience and sophistication. Only thing I would change is the menu at the restaurant. Would have ate there every night if the food wasn’t all so gourmet. Instead had to find other places in town for something more casual and traditional
