Great location right by cable car, stunning views and right opposite the beach. The views from the room with seaviews are breathtaking and the balcony is spacious, the bathroom and shower are good too. The hotel has a number of terraces all with stunning views as well and great to experience different spaces and socialise. I took the half board option: breakfast is good to kick-start the day with scramble eggs, fruit, bread etc. Dinner was a good experience with 3 courses every night and an Italian culinary journey different to what you'd find on restaurants. I had dinner ala carte at the hotel restaurant al fresco one night and was really good and generous and that terrace is just the best space to chill at night in the village with a few drinks. The staff are friendly and keen to help 5 stars to them. Overall great value for money for food, spaces and location compared to other hotels in the area.

I took the single with seaviews, the room has just enough space to move about. The fridge isn't cold enough to keep your drinks freezing cold after the beach. The access to the room is via a lift and about 100 steps so a small workout. The half board dinner option is good but the dinner portions are quite small for a 78kg male and you can't have it outside.

Fantastic location and views, attentive staff and for the most part, excellent food. The sea view from our balcony was spectacular. The hotel description could have been a little clearer about the pool being located at the (pay) private beach, but we were directed to the sister Hotel Ipanema, 100m along the road, where we were welcome to use their rooftop pool. Another major advantage was having the cable car station located just across the square, making access to Taormina town centre easy and stress free.

The pool not being located at the hotel and a very small bathroom considering the size of our room.

Tired but clean rooms. The air con worked perfectly. Continental breakfast was nothing special but just enough to start the day. Staff was ok, Antonio was very friendly and smiling all the time. There is no private beach but you can use the shuttle bus and access a nearby beach for only €12 a day. The view from the terrace in the triple room was amazing!

The location was perfect. It was opposite the beach and beside the cable cars. You couldn't ask for a better location with stunning views

The room was a little dated, but very clean and functional. The shower is in the bath so it was a little trickle climbing into the bath as it was quite high.

Room clean, comfortable. Close to beach and cable car.

The meals at bar were very ordinary. Didn't go to restaurant as I'm sure it was the same chef.

Simply amazing! The hotel is located next to the cable car, which takes you up to Taormina. It has a beautiful view of the bay from the rooftop. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Food is really good, especially dinner. There is a shuttle to the beach club where you can choose between staying at the pool or at the beach. Room was really clean. All in all had an amazing stay, would totally recommend.

Location is near beach Perfect view from old building There ara many stores, near is bus station, railway station, cabel cabin to centro Taormina, isola Bella

Breakfast is the same every day, nothing special The furniture was old, needs more modern

Fantastic view from our balcony. It was wonderful being able to sit outside and have a panoramic view. Close to beach and good restaurants.

Our room was at the highest level and took 130 steps to reach it. Too many for older people. Parking was an issue.

The location is close to restaurants. The hotel is not in the Taormina village, but it's a one minute walk to the tram that takes you up. The view from our room was beautiful.

The gentleman at the front desk was not helpful at all. Stood there for several minutes before he finally acknowledged me, and I was the only one there.

So close to the sea, and the cable car! the staff were lovely and so friendly. pool is not in the hotel but only a short walk away, and was lovely!

the road is quite busy, and there are trains that pass too that are quite loud.
