Pros:

Posizione strategica (spiaggia di Mazzarò a 5 minuti a piedi).
Il personale super gentile e disponibile.
I servizi offerti (lido in convenzione, servizio asciugamani per il mare e parcheggi a pagamento) molto apprezzati.
La piscina un plus per chi sente la necessità di fare una pausa dal mare.

Excellent location, clean and we friendly staff
Pros:

Very comfortable room with sea view and the staff was very helpful and friendly. They welcomed us in front of the car park and helped us with the luggage.
The hotel is ideally located away from big crowds yet just a couple of minutes away rom the cable car that takes you to the top of Taormina.
We also particularly liked the swimming pool. Also good breakfast selection.

Cons:

Nothing we didn’t like.

Pros:

Нам дуже сподобався цей готель! 🥰 Тут справді було дуже круто: привітний персонал, який завжди готовий допомогти, усміхається та створює неймовірно приємну атмосферу.

Басейн чистий, територія доглянута, а розташування взагалі супер — зовсім близько до пляжів. 🏖️ Окремо хочеться відзначити смачну піцу 🍕 та дуже смачні коктейлі 🍹

Однозначно раджу цей готель усім, хто хоче добре відпочити, розслабитися та отримати приємні враження. Нам тут дуже сподобалося! ❤️

Якби їхала ще раз, без сумнівів обрала б саме цей готель! ⭐️

Wir (Paar) würden grundsätzlich nochmals kommen.
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unser Mietauto wurde jeweils gebracht und wieder geparkt ohne Probleme. Die Reinigungskräfte waren ebenfalls sehr zuvorkommend, haben immer auf unseren Tagesrhythmus Rücksicht genommen und das Zimmer jeweils super geputzt. Das Zimmer konnte man sehr gut abdunkeln und es war sehr ruhig. Zur Seilbahnstation nach Taormina sind es nur 5 Gehminuten.

Cons:

Frühstück gibt es nur bis 10:00 Uhr was für uns etwas ungünstig war, da wir in den Ferien auch gerne etwas länger schlafen. Zudem hatte es keine grosse Auswahl und der Raum war für alle Gäste eher klein. Der Pool hat uns am meisten enttäuscht. Er war zwar gross, aber es gab kaum Schattenplätze, keine Sonnenschirme, die Liegen waren dreckig und der ganze Bereich war lieblos gestaltet. Es war absolut nicht einladend da Zeit zu verbringen. Der Pool war ein Kriterium, weshalb wir das Hotel überhaupt gebucht haben. Deshalb war es schon schade.

Mi smo uzivali u nasem boravku u Villa Esperia
Pros:

Ovo je nase prvo putovanje na Siciliju i izabrali smo Taorminu, dosli smo bez ikakvih ocekivanja. Hotel
Je bio jakoo udoban, i bili smo zadovoljni uslugom. Dorucak je bio pristojan i svako moze da nadje za sebe sta voli da jede. Takodje postoji mogucnost da narucite pizza za veceru ili tokom dana kada se kupate na bazenu. Pizza je odlicna, jako ukusna i cijenaa je i vise nego odlicna. Hotel ima bazen sa kojeg se pruzaa prelijep pogled na more. Osoblje hotela je i vise nego prijatno i stoje vam na usluzii 24/7. Claudia na recepciji je sjajna, dala nam je mnogo savjeta gdje da jedemo, sta da obidjemo kao i prilikom iznjamljivanja auta.
Klima u sobi je takodje super radila i imali smo hladjenje. Svaki dan smo imali sredjenu sobu, i ciste peskire sto nam je bilo jako vazno. Sve u svemu nama je biloo jako lijepo i preporucujemo svima.

Cons:

Jedino mi se nije svidio tus pored bazena.

Nothing short of amazing leaving us with the most positive memories of Taormina, beautiful family, one hotel, great view
Pros:

Everything, communication before the booking to arrange our rental vehicle to be parked, a warm and friendly welcome at reception by Claudia and her sister Laura. Location is perfect. The views are amazing. The rooms are incredible. The bed was very comfortable. Everything was clean. The breakfast was amazing and the staff was so helpful regarding local tours. In addition, we decided to do a cooking class with Francesco and my son and I made the most incredible truffle, ravioli dish and Panna cotta dessert, something we will hold dear from our memory. It’s not often I give a hotel 10 out of 10 love this hotel is absolutely deserving and I would not hesitate to return or recommend to anybody who wants to have a great experience in Taormina. Being so close to the cable car for nightly trips to Taormina to do a spot of shopping and then also right in front of isola bella Beach with its beautiful waters, great snorkeling, and a local sailing trip recommended by Claudia. This was most certainly our best experience in all of Sicily.

Cons:

Nothing everything was fantastic, well done, Claudia, Laura, Giuseppe serving drinks by the pool bar, Francesco for the cooking class and Mario for his amazing valet car service.
