The apartment was lovely, spacious and clean. It was in a fantastic location right in the heart of everything…steps to restaurants, cable car for the beach and shopping. Paige and her colleague were so helpful and responsive. They provided lots of recommendations for restaurants, drivers and beach clubs. The driver they connected us with went above and beyond when our flight was canceled due to Etna. We would highly recommend a stay in this apartment!

Great location. Comfortable living room. Stairs would be a bit difficult for older adults. Rooftop was great to relax and play cards at night. Unfortunately a few neighbor dogs barked every night.

Excellent location

Wonderful location for stay in Taormina right off of Corso Umberto @ Porta Messina. Great cafe for morning cappuccino just steps from front door. Nice villa with very comfortable beds… note: narrow steps up to access main living area. We enjoyed our stay!

We loved our time at Villa Zecca! It was very centrally located and the villa had everything one could want. Lovely decor, amazing roof deck, great views, comfortable beds, and wonderful treats the host left upon our arrival. I would definitely recommend this rental!

Fabulous!

Perfect location at Porta Messina. Quick access to all transportation needs - cable car to the beaches and taxis. Corso Umberto is just steps away from the apartment and the center of the action in Taormina with restaurants and shopping.

Location, Views and Comfort

We loved the villa and the location in Porta Messina! The view from the large terrace in the morning is fantastic. It has a large living room area for everyone to hang out and relax. You walk out of the front door and within seconds you are enjoying all the local pars, restaurants and shopping. The staff was very helpful with our needs including helping us with reservations etc. We would definitely stay here again!

The property was advertised differently from set up. There was a separate apartment across the courtyard. This was unexpected. But it worked out to our satisfaction. We loved the house! Beautifully decorated & well maintained. I must say the number of stairs can be daunting. We managed okay but something to consider .Fabulous location in a lovely courtyard.Rooftop garden was delightful. Great shopping, restaurants & ruins nearby.My only complaint was about Dario. He was not very welcoming & in a rush. We could have used more instruction about appliances. That is a minor detail. Overall my family with young children enjoyed our stay.

Great location

This apartment is in the heart of the town. Short walk to everything. The rooftop deck was a great place to enjoy our evenings. I would suggest more Kitchen supplies. We were 6 adults and the twin room (not pictured) really should be for children only. Our overall stay was excellent.

Beautiful Stay in Taormina

We really enjoyed our stay in Taormina. We are a group of 3 adults and one child (6). The layout of the villa was perfect for us, as we stayed on the main floor with our son, then there is separate space for our 4th traveler. The rooftop is lovely, especially at night, and the location is ideal (right at the start of the part of town that limits vehicle traffic and walkable to everything)! Paige was a great host -- the villa had all of the touches to make us feel at home. We would highly recommend this beautiful property for your trip. We look forward to going back and will stay at Villa Zecca for our next trip without a doubt!

A Breathtaking Retreat in Taormina

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Villa Zecca in Taormina and from start to finish the experience was exceptional for our family of five. The space is tastefully appointed, very clean and perfectly located near everything that Taormina has to offer. One of the highlights of Villa Zecca was undoubtedly the breathtaking views from the rooftop deck. Each evening we relaxed and were treated to the stunning panoramas of the Taormina landscape. Paige and Fabiola were highly responsive and ensured our stay was extraordinary. They promptly answered all our inquiries and provided invaluable recommendations on local restaurants, activities, and transportation options for our family. Thank you for an incredible experience - we can't wait to return!

Taormina the right way!

Without question Taormina is one of the most beautiful places to see and experience! It could not have been one of the greatest experiences for me and my family were it not for the host of this property! Accommodations were prefect for the six of us. Kitchen was helpful for us to make breakfast with a supermarket very close by. The host was welcoming and very helpful and available if needed. She went above and beyond making us feel at home, and her restaurant recommendations were spot on. Beautiful rooftop terrace with exquisite views, especially at night. I would do the review a disservice by not mentioning the location! Apartment was steps from the shopping and restaurants. We were within a few minutes from the bus depot for tours and for buses to the beach. Additionally if you wanted t on take the cable car down to the beach, it was within walking distance as well. Food supermarket as also very close by. Great experience for all!

We would highly recommend Paige’s place!It was the perfect location, right on the main road. It was really easy access to all the shops and restaurants. The upstairs balcony was amazing and provided a beautiful place to sit and relax with an amazing view. She really put alot of extra attention into making sure you feel at home and taken care of. It was renovated and decorated so beautifully. The space is spacious and perfect for a family and the living room was big enough to relax and hang out together. She provided all necessities and then goes over and above to provide all extras. She was extremely attentive and helpful before and during our stay. Dario was also attentive and extremely helpful, he was an amazing resource to have. I have never had such an experience away that was given such attention to their guests.
