I am filled with wistful tears writing this review, as I look back on what a magical 5 days me and my partner were lucky to spend with the gracious Tania & Giancarlo. Giancarlo is an incredible artist who designed not only his gorgeous home, but several parts of Taormina. He’s so humble and may not share that with you upon meeting, but make sure you ask him about it!! Conversations lasted long with Giancarlo between my partner and I, that were truly meaningful. We were given several recommendations by Tania and were able to make bookings within just a days notice. The walk to town is many steps, but not very long- a proper cardio workout before enjoying a rich Sicilian meal. The walk down to the beach was equidistant and one of the most gorgeous sights we had ever seen. The water is so clear, the pizza is so fresh and the vibes are just right down at isola bella as well as at mazzaro beach. Take the trolly back up unless you’re in the mood for more cardio!! Not to mention the trolly is so much fun and a great way to get in some gorgeous views. My partner unfortunately got sun stroke one night and became severely ill. I reached out to Tania asking for help around 6am via the app, not expecting anyone to be awake- and she came to our guest house within 10 minutes. She offered so many remedies to help soothe his stomach and clear out any bacteria- a true fairy god mother at her finest. On our last day, we bought one of Giancarlo’s self made wines, went down to the beach, had an incredible last meal at the greatest restaurant in Taormina “Re Del Sol”, and had the sweetest goodbye with this gorgeous family. This was by far the greatest airb&b experience we’ve been lucky enough to have. This family is one of the kindest you’ll ever meet! Please, treat yourself to La Casa De Tania & Giancarlo.
