Wonderful stay at a lovely hotel with amazing view and beautiful pool.
Pros:

I loved the staff. Daniela was absolutely amazing and so friendly every morning at breakfast. I loved the food, I loved our room and the pool and the property. It was beautiful, clean and the view was amazing.

Cons:

I didn't like the fact the staff kept shushing my kids when they were playing in the pool. Specially because we were a lot of the times alone at the pool side. If kids aren't welcome at the facility then I think it should be written clearly on the website :)
I would have also loved to hear music at the restaurant - just a tip for the future.

Geniale Entspannung an einem Sehnsuchtsort!
Pros:

Einfach alles, die ruhige Lage zwischen dem Ätna und dem Meer ist nicht nur hinsichtlich der Aussicht genial. Das Restaurant war ebenfalls sehr gut geführt, die Speisen excellent und das Personal einfach spitze. Der Hoteldirektor machte einen sehr guten Eindruck, seine perfektionistische Art, die Anlage zu jederzeit so hervorragend zu präsentieren und in Stand zu halten, hat uns besonders begeistert.

I highly recommend visiting
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay at Kepos and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sicily.

We spent a week here, and from the very first day we felt completely relaxed. The property is incredibly beautiful, full of flowers, butterflies, and its own garden. Spending time by the pool, relaxing and enjoying the breathtaking views of Sicily was pure pleasure.

The location is also perfect - very close to Taormina and convenient for exploring the area. During our trip we stayed at several other hotels, but Kepos was our favorite by far.

A special thank you to the entire team. Everyone was genuinely kind, welcoming, and always happy to help. The concierge service via WhatsApp was fantastic - every question was answered quickly, and we always felt cared for throughout our stay.

We would especially like to thank the director for creating such a beautiful and warm place, the wonderful ladies who served breakfast every morning with genuine smiles and attention to every detail, and the housekeeping team, who kept everything spotless every day. It is clear that everyone here truly cares about the guests and takes pride in what they do.

I would also like to mention the restaurant. The ingredients are exceptionally fresh, and the homemade olive oil served with bread before dinner is simply delicious. We tried several nearby restaurants and even visited a restaurant from the Michelin Guide, but honestly, the food at Kepos was even better. Every meal was memorable, and dinner quickly became one of our favorite parts of the day.

Thank you for such a wonderful holiday. We are leaving with beautiful memories and hope to come back again one day.

Un bel établissement de charme avec de jolies vues, un personnel au top, un excellent séjour.
Pros:

Emplacement avec vue mer d’un côté et vue sur l’Etna de l’autre avec proximité d’accès en voiture du parc de l’Etna, de la mer et de nombreux points d’intérêt dont Taormine et Catane et d’autres petites villes et villages de charme. Le calme, l’ensemble du personnel charmant et bienveillant. La restauration du petit déjeuner au dîner avec des produits provenant du jardin de l’hôtel.

Cons:

Tout était très bien. Pas de point négatif pour qui recherche du calme, du confort, une structure à taille humaine (15 chambres), un propriétaire d’hôtel et son personnel d’une réelle gentillesse.
