"Without a doubt, Villa Fiorita is one of the most incredible hotels I’ve ever stayed at. From the outside, you have no idea what’s waiting for you inside. It feels like stepping into a Sicilian paradise castle, with stunning furniture, statues, arches, exposed stone, brick, and marble at every turn. The attention to detail is simply breathtaking.
The location is perfect just steps from Corso Umberto’s restaurants and shops, and only a short walk to the cable car that takes you to the beach in about 10 minutes.
From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. We were welcomed with a full tour of the hotel, our luggage was taken care of, and our car was parked for us. Even though the hotel is fairly large, it somehow feels like a boutique hotel. Every staff member genuinely cares about making your stay perfect.
Breakfast was outstanding, with fresh pastries, Sicilian specialties, eggs, bacon, fresh juices, and an incredible view. Our room was spotless, and the large terrace overlooking the sea became our favorite place to enjoy a glass of wine each evening.
The highlight, however, was the pool. After hot beach days, we couldn’t wait to relax there. A special thank you to Damiano, the pool barman, who made our stay unforgettable. His cocktails were fantastic, he introduced us to delicious local specialties, and even helped us get a reservation at one of Taormina’s best restaurants. His kindness and genuine hospitality made us feel so welcome."
