Good location, easy walk to main centre. Good facilities and nice breakfast, especially the coffee! Hosts were friendly and very helpful, giving great advice about transport options before we arrived, saving us time. Highly recommended place!
I don’t have enough good things to say about this stay. Location was perfect, room was comfortable and spacious and the host was warm and welcoming.
Highly recommended staying here.
A nice peaceful retreat after a day of exploring catania. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the price for value was unmatched. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Sciara Larmisi and would 100% recommend!
The host was fantastic, excellent communication prior to arrival with clear details on how to check in out of hours, breakfast was lovely and if the weather allows, absolutely make sure you enjoy it on the rooftop terrace!
The B&B is spotlessly clean and staff and room was very comfortable.
Location is excellent too, within 1 minute walk to bus stops for the airport shuttle and main square and via Etnea are only a short walk away too.
Our stay was short, but very enjoyable - the rooms are beautiful and comfortable, the breakfast in the morning was delicious and we could enjoy a lovely view while having it. The host was helpful, welcoming and kind. We would definitely g o back!
Emmanuel and Giuseppe were wonderful hosts at the bed-and-breakfast
The morning breakfast was absolutely wonderful

Great location - easy check in - clean and comfortable
The host was super kind, the breakfast was generous and on a beautiful rooftop. Our room was the highlight. We absolutely loved this bnb and will be coming back!!
The host also provided champagne and soda, which was refreshing after long days of travel!
Great spot, lovely pool and views, clean apartment. Everything in Taormina is uphill - this was no exception. This was about a 20 min uphill walk on stairs in good order to Taormina and about a 20 min walk downhill on some fairly overgrown stairs to the beach. But the quiet of the location was definitly part of the charm.
Excellent location with walking distance to most of tourist attractions. Spacious room with a balcony and spacious, very clean and modern bathroom.
In summary: Excellent 3 night stay.
Thank you
Excellent location with helpful and friendly host. The apartment was great and I would have liked to stay longer. Tiny shower, but everything clean and sufficient for a pleasant stay.
