Hotel Villa Carlotta is a 4-star boutique hotel set in a late 19th-century aristocratic villa, perched above Taormina with sweeping views of the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna. Nestled within lush gardens overflowing with bougainvillea and palms, it offers peaceful elegance just a few minutes’ walk from the lively town centre.
Offering around 23 individually designed rooms, suites, apartments, and private villas, the property features Moorish stone facades, spacious terraces, and refined interiors accented with elegant Italian design. Each unit includes air conditioning, Wi‑Fi, minibar, flat-screen TV (with DVD), and luxurious bath amenities.
The outdoor pool and terrace areas offer breathtaking panoramic views across the sea toward Etna—ideal spots to unwind with a cocktail at the pool bar or bask in the Taormina sunshine amidst the garden’s tranquility.
The on-site restaurant serves creative Sicilian cuisine made from fresh local and organic ingredients. Meals may be enjoyed on a panoramic terrace or in a refined indoor setting, while a stylish rooftop bar offers aperitifs at sunset.
Guest amenities include free private parking, concierge and shuttle service from/to the port or airport, bicycle rental, guided boat tours, cooking classes, and bespoke island itineraries. Breakfast is served each morning as an elaborate buffet.
Located just 400 m from Taormina’s port and historic centre, Villa Carlotta provides easy walking access to Corso Umberto, the Greek Theatre, and the funivia cable car to Isola Bella. Despite its proximity to the action, the elevated position ensures a serene and private atmosphere.
Part of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, Villa Carlotta blends historic charm, exquisite design, and personalized service—perfect for couples and discerning travellers seeking a cultivated yet relaxed stay in Taormina.
