We cannot recommend this beautiful villa highly enough. The 180 degree views of the sea are unrivalled and provide a stunning backdrop to this lovely villa. Antonio is the perfect host - warm, welcoming and very informative. He maintained contact with us throughout our visit providing useful tips about the surrounding area and his enthusiasm for Sicilian life is infectious! Antonio has thought of everything to facilitate a stay at his villa - there are even jelly shoes for use at the beach as well as beach towels and umbrellas. There is also a fantastic sound system to play your favourite tunes in the garden or whilst you are relaxing in the hot tub! Don't be put off by the steps, they are easily climbed and provide a bit of welcome exercise after feasting on granite and brioche (you must try this typical Sicilian treat!) The main town of Taormina is within easy reach via a cable car that goes every few minutes until 1.30am daily. We would recommend hiring a scooter to explore the local area - it's a fun way to get around and means you will not be stuck in traffic jams.
Antonio's villa is the perfect hideaway for couple's on a romantic retreat or for families wanting to be near the beach or lone travellers wanting a genuine and unique Sicilian experience. We will definitely be back - we had a truly memorable holiday and have fallen in love with Sicily and Blue Mood Villa.
