We had a room with a beautiful view on the sea and the streets of Taormina. The view on the roof terrace, where breakfast was served, included a view on mount Etna, the Greek theater and most of the town. Breakfast was being served by the charming landlady herself. The hotel is strategically positioned among good restaurants, close to the... More

We were booked for one night over Easter and had an email confirmation but on arrival there was no-one at the property and we couldn't raise anyone on either one of the phone numbers or by email. We waited for nearly an hour but eventually gave up and stayed in another hotel. We can only assume the owners were away... More

Dear Guest, we are sorry to inform you that maybe there was a mistake. At first, we don't accept reservation of 1 night only, but minimun for 2 nights. Second: when a guest books at Villa Floresta, he knows that we require his arrival time. Third: in Easter Week all rooms of Villa Floresta were full (no vacant rooms). For... More

My wife and I spent two nights (Friday and Saturday nights) at the Villa Floresta, which was presented as a bed and breakfast the Rough Guide to Sicily that we used as our guidebook while visiting Sicily. The situation wasn't what we expected in that the owners do not live at the residence and do not provide the breakfast that... More

We found Villa Floresta to be in a great location looking over the Duomo and Piazza below. Literally one minute from cafes and sites, just off the main strip. There was a little bit of noise from the restaurant below but nothing major. The family who run Villa Floresta are not always there but they are very friendly and helpful... More

Condition of this place is reflected in the price despite the good internet photo's, good location but building needs a very good renovation done. Hard to get a hold of owners as they were never on site. Would not stay here again but for those not fussed about smelly bathrooms and run down rooms it is in an ideal location. More

Dear reviser, you have written about smelly bathrooms and run down rooms. But in which room with bathroom do you was stayed? We don't understand your disappoint because all the guests of Villa Floresta know that the rooms are restructured and equipped with new bathrooms and furnishings. And also, all rooms and bathrooms are also kept clean every day. We... More

I would very much like to recommend your charming B&B, beautifully situated in the heart of Taormina. The idyllic setting of Villa Floresta is perfect to explore all this unique city has to offer in day as well as night life. We very much enjoyed breakfast directly at the Piazza Duomo, and once again here the staff at the cafe... More

My wife and I stayed in Taormina for three nights. It is a cute little town and like elsewhere in Sicily the locals are great but if the weather is poor, as we suffered, you are a bit stuck and one night will suffice. This B&B is in a great location, the rooms are kept clean and it is pretty... More

Hallo David, we are sorry for your book review, but we agree with you about the street indications of Villa Floresta, but unfortunately is prohibited to put our sign at the public square (Piazza Duomo). We make excuses to you also about the bar Le 4 fontane that was closed for technical troubles. We are sorry also for not to... More

We have just returned from a week at Villa Floresta in Taormina and it was brilliant. When we arrived at the lovely little hotel and opened our 2 balcony doors we saw beautiful views from both sides! One of the Beautiful Duomo Square and cathedral and the other of the sea in the distance. Our room was fine and kept... More

We lost two hours of the time we had available to explore Taormina because of inexplicable difficulty in merely checking into this hotel. After finally locating the hotel and finding a temporary place to park while we unloaded our luggage, we were shocked to find no one there to check us in or even store our luggage. No message or...
