Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This historic home, which dates back to 1900, enjoys both the tranquillity of its residential setting and close proximity to Taormina's centre and its many sights. A short ride on the cable car will also take you to the beach. Spread across two floors, you’ll need to climb some stairs here, but once upstairs you’ll be rewarded with stunning views from the two private terraces. There’s enough space here for a large family or a group of friends, and the place is also well-equipped to accommodate children. Pop open a bottle of Marsala and relax on the terrace, taking in the views of the bay.

Home truths
This home is spread across two floors with no internal lift – you'll enjoy your own private entrance here.
If you're travelling with little ones, the host can provide a baby cot and a high chair for free upon request.
