I can’t express enough how lovely and accommodating our hosts were. They bent over backwards at every turn to make our stay delightful. Breakfast was served every day in person on our veranda facing the sea at the time requested and they provided excellent maps to excursions and travel spots nearby without us even asking. Just over a lovely couple who take a lot of pride in hosting at their beautiful property!

Very generous breakfast delivered to our patio each morning by Salvo and Maria at our convenience. Salvo and Maria are terrific hosts who were very helpful to us with any of our needs or concerns. We had a beautiful view of the Taormino Bay from our patio and easy access to lovely swimming beaches. We highly recommend villa Ariana as a great place to stay if you are visiting Taramina and the surrounding area well.

Highest recommendation

We had the best time staying with Maria and Salvo. They were so attentive and really made sure we had the best stay. The room was very cozy and we had a large rooftop terrasse all to ourselves with the most amazing view. Location was also amazing, so easy to get to both Lido beach and Isola Bella (5-10 minutes walk). Also the cable car to the city was only 3 minutes walk from us. Hughest recommendation and will most definetly come back again :)

My husband and I had a wonderful visit to Sicily and our 8 day stay at Villa Arianna was amazing. We were provided with much more than was expected, like late night pickup from the bus station, snacks and beverages, maps and sightseeing recommendations. The hosts went out of their way to make our stay memorable and simply wonderful. The views from our terrace were breathtaking. We would have our breakfasts there every morning. The cable car taking us to Taormina old city center was five minute walking distance.

The absolute BEST hosts you could ever ask for!! Salvo and Maria Pia are SO welcoming and are always eager to help with whatever you need. One of the highlights was them bringing a delicious breakfast spread to our room every morning and setting it up on the balcony to enjoy. They also provided us with great local recommendations and even helped us with booking taxi services to/from the airport. The location is outstanding! The location is 1) no more than 50 steps from the cable car (which brings you directly to the heart of the town), 2) immediately adjacent to entrance to the beach, and 3) no more than a 5 minute walk to get to the beach with Isola Bella. Regarding the property, it is very clean with good air conditioning and ample amenities for your time in Taormina. Could not have asked for any more. Looking forward to staying here again when I come back to Sicily. There is simply nowhere else I’d rather stay. Thank you Maria Pia and Salvo!!!!!! Grazie Mille!!!

Perfect in every way!

We had an amazing time hosted by Maria Pia and Salvo who are the loveliest hosts you will ever meet. Breakfast on our private terrace every morning was an absolute treat and the attention to detail was second to none. Our beautiful room was very comfortable and spacious and we had some lovely treats left for us every day. There was a fridge in the room, plates and cutlery available to use and Salvo passed on his extensive knowledge of the area. The property is located very conveniently for the cable car up to Taormina and also close to the beach and a great little supermarket next door where you can buy freshly made sandwiches. All in all we had the most wonderful time and highly recommend Villa Arianna.

Herlig lite hotell med fantastisk personale!

Villa Arianna er virkelig noe for seg selv! Vi kunne ikke hatt det bedre!! Vi fikk et stort fint og vakkert rom, ingen sjøutsikt fra rommet, men til gjengjeld egen takterrasse kun for oss med fantastisk utsikt. Og veldig god frokost servert hver morgen på takterrassen - helt fantastisk! Utrolig hyggelige og serviceinnstilte de som driver dette lille koselige hotellet! Ligger utrolig praktisk til i forhold til både strender og taubane opp til Taormina. Fint sted å bo hvis man ikke ønsker å bo midt i Taormina. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake hit ved en senere anledning! Kan varmt anbefales!

Fantastisk miljö och värdskap!

Vår vistelse på Villa Arianna var fantastisk. Rummet var bekvämt och alltid rent, toppskick. Varje dag möttes vi av små gåvor som verkligen förgyllde vår dag. Värdparet är utöver det vanliga. De brinner för sina gäster och visar en italiensk gästvänlighet utöver det vanliga. Maria Pia och Salvo symboliserar genuin service och omtänksamhet. De gör Taoromina till ett vackert resmål.

9 herlige dager<3

Helt magisk! Vi hadde 9 amazing dager på Villa Arianna! Vi kom sent på kvelden, men Maria og Salvo sto å tok oss i mot når vi kom. Vi fikk en veldig bra gjennomgang av Taormina by. Hvor de hadde best pizza, utsikt, Tiramisu og hvordan vi kom oss dit. Vi fikk håndklær til å ha med på stranden, ny hverdag om vi ønsket det. Men... Den store opplevelsen, var frokost. Alle dager kom Maria, Salvo og Marcello opp på rommet med en helt fantastisk frokost. Rundstykker, pålegg, frukt og nydelig kaffe. Den kunne vi nyte på vår private terrasse, som også var helt fantastisk. Med utsikt ned til Mazzarò beach og over til fastlandet. Panorama!!!! Her hadde vi mange hyggelige kvelder og soloppganger. Nærmeste strand er Mazzarò, det tar ca 5 min å gå ned. Der er det nydelig krystallklart vann, herlig atomsfære og litt dyre solsenger (15eour for 1). Vi var der alle dager, og når vi kom opp fra stranden sto det alltid noe å drikke på og litt snacks, som var akkutar det man trengte da! På kvelden kan man bli ved hotellet og spise på en av resturantene i nærområdet, eller man kan ta taubanen opp til byen. Taubanen ligger rett rundt hjørnet og tar 3 min opp til byen. Så man bruker bare 5 minutter opp til gamlebyen. Som er helt nydelig! De har egen sjofør på hotellet. Så om man ønsker en tur (hvor som helst på Taormina) kan man bare gi beskjed, så kommer Andrea og henter deg!! Maria, Zalvo og Marcello er helt fantastiske. Vi har følt på en gjestfrihet vi aldri før har opplevd. Takk!
