Hotel Villa Belvedere Taormina – Period elegance with sweeping sea views
A historic villa in central Taormina
Once a private residence and now a refined boutique hotel, Villa Belvedere welcomes guests with timeless charm and warm Sicilian hospitality. Just a short stroll from Corso Umberto and the town’s scenic overlooks, it blends heritage character with contemporary comforts.
Rooms & suites facing the sea and Mount Etna
Bright, thoughtfully appointed accommodations range from classic and superior rooms to junior suites and apartments. Many feature a balcony or terrace overlooking the sea and Mount Etna; all offer air conditioning, Wi‑Fi, TV, minibar, safe and a bathroom with curated amenities.
Panoramic pool & Mediterranean gardens
Set among palms, bougainvillea and citrus trees, the outdoor pool invites relaxation with views of Isola Bella. Sun terraces and open‑air lounges make the most of Taormina’s gentle climate year‑round.
Restaurant, bar & sea‑view breakfast
Sicilian and Mediterranean cuisine showcases seasonal ingredients, complemented by a wine list focused on Etna labels and freshly mixed cocktails. In the morning, enjoy a generous continental breakfast in the dining room or on panoramic terraces.
Tailor‑made services
Concierge for transfers, private tours, boat experiences and reservations; parking/valet on request, luggage storage, laundry, and shuttle to beaches and nearby sights. Thoughtful touches—complimentary water, coffee and light snacks—enhance the stay.
Experience Taormina
The location is ideal for the Ancient Theatre, the cable car to Mazzarò, Isola Bella and the main viewpoints. Etna excursions, Etna DOC tastings and boat trips along the Ionian coast can be easily arranged.
Boutique atmosphere
Classic style, handcrafted details and an intimate ambiance make Villa Belvedere a perfect choice for couples, families and travellers seeking authenticity and elegance in Taormina.

His Opinion: We absolutely loved this hotel! The view of Mt. Etna is breathtaking, the grounds are so picturesque and it is very close to il Teatro Greco. We stayed in room 57 which had a nice terrace. The buffet breakfast was exquisite. The hotel staff we interacted with were very welcoming and accommodating- nothing was ever a problem. Even though we had a car with us, we asked for a driver to Mt Etna and they called Carmelo who was such a pleasure to spend time with.
Joshua at the front desk helped us, as well as Angelo - always with a warm smile. Gino helped us with our luggage on the way out and he was also very nice.
We will definitely be back to Taormina and will certainly stay again at this beautiful hotel.

His Opinion: This is a beautiful hotel with a courteous and helpful staff. Breakfast was great as was the lunch buffet (although if you want more of anything there is an extra charge, so it's not really a buffet). Our room was spacious and well-appointed with a limited view of the bay.
