Waterfront holiday rentals in Giardini Naxos

We came by taxi from the airport. Antonietta waited for us in the apartment and told us about what we saw around us, gave tips on restaurants and told us about dishes you should try when you are in Aci Castello. The apartment was well equipped, but we were probably too late to use the mosquito spray. Walking distance to Aci Trezza and Catania is also not far away (by bus). After purchasing swimming shoes, we tried a small swim in the sea that lies just below the apartment. Here it must be said that we had problems both getting in and out of the sea due to large rocks that had to be forced. The apartment is well equipped and we bought food and ate breakfast "at home", also made a couple of dinners in the city to eat out. The terrace was fantastic and we sat outside all the time, except when we wanted to watch the national match between Norway and Italy (which Norway won). I highly recommend both the place and the apartment.

The view is as good as you think it will be. The apartment is spacious with two balconies. PROS: The sea view, Rita's responsiveness (she really did reply within a few minutes of sending her a message), the price, location with all the restaurants/cafes/grocery shops just a few minute walk, wifi was very good (used remote server). Bus stop to the airport is just down the road (5 min?) with a bus every 30 minutes. CON: The apartment sits between two roads. The one in front (where the view is) is busy at certain times in the morning and during the day, but the rest of the time it is fairly quiet. The other road at the back is busy from early morning to late into the night. This is where the bedroom is, so I had to wear ear plugs at night. FYI: If you do not wear shoes inside, pack a pair of slippers. The floors looked clean, but my feet were getting very dirty from walking inside the apartment without shoes. Bring a beach towel if you plan on swimming. There are several nice beaches.

The appartment is located perfectly for staying at the beautiful beach and also to get up to the center of Taormine within minutes. We even got a lot of free drinks on our fridge, including local and tasty wine from Sicily. We felt very comfortable and safe in the appartment and surrounded area. In addition we got great recommendations for restaurants (very delicious), trips and other things to do. Many thanks to Rocco and Massimo, our stay was amazing! We definetly would book this accommodation again 100%. All the best and tanti saluti, Adriano and Julia

bellissimo!!! What a beautiful place!!!!.

We felt very comfortable and can highly recommend the apartment. Location: The apartment is located in a quiet part of Giardini Naxos. Free parking is always available in the neighborhood. The nearest pebble beach is only 5 minutes away, and the sandy beach with loungers and parasols is only 10-15 minutes' walk. We had a rental car, but it is better to take the bus to Taormina, the stop is only a 5-minute walk away. The apartment is much nicer than in the photos. The roof terrace is a dream with a great view of the harbor. There is now modern lounge seating. Dining tables in the kitchen and living area are also new and not yet available in all photos. I think the apartment looks much brighter than in the photos. It was a very nice stay at Valeria's.

Had a very nice stay with my family in the apartment. Close to the beach, clean and equipped with everything you need. Thank you very much

Great place and super host. Hope to see you once again.

Fantastic stay in a brilliant apartment! Close to all amenities and restaurants! Close enough to Taormina without being on top of the crowds! The host is super responsive and very helpful with any questions you might have! Amazing time, can’t wait to book again! ☺️

This was such a lovely and relaxing place. The outside space with the patios was amazing. There’s plenty of space indoors with a well equipped kitchen and I loved that the bedrooms are downstairs so you don’t have to bring the luggage upstairs. It was an easy drive to visit Taormina and Sergio was nothing but helpful with tips of where to park and places to eat. We would definitely return!

Lovely place, nothing bad about it. Host was very helpful with recommendations.

We spend wonderful week at Alfio's place. All good reviews are hundred percent correct. View is amazing! Flat is very clean and cosy. There is air conditioning for every room separately. It's everything what you need and even more. Flat is simple but everything is solid and good quality. The area is great. All aperitivo we had on the terrace was with amazing view, quiet area and we were really satisfied. Hosts are very helpful and were responding to us very fast :) We will go back for sure :) Grazie di cuore :)

It is as described in the pictures. The apartment is very close to the beach. That's great. At our time, there was a lot of construction work around the apartment and it was very loud. It is good to know that the terrace is visible to all neighbors on every side. Therefore, you have no privacy on the terrace. The accommodation is otherwise very clean and has plenty of space. The host Salvatore is very helpful and nice, everything worked out great.

We had a lovely stay at Chiara"s place. Swims in the morning and drinks on the balcony in the warm evenings. The apartment is very well appointed and tastefully decorated.

We have already been for the 2nd time in this beautiful apartment. Wonderful terrace at any time of day, sea and beach across the street, supermarket and restaurants right outside the front door. Cristina welcomed us very warmly despite the late arrival time with a delicious surprise and also had nice excursion tips ready for the 3 rainy days (end of October). Mille grazie!

We were very pleased with our stay. Alessandro was very communicative, at check-in, in case of problems, when transferring our daughter to the airport. We enjoyed the small terrace very much, but it felt almost directly by the sea. We can only recommend the apartment. Volker and Iris

Lele is an excellent hostess. The place matches the description perfectly. She has thoughtfully prepared a detailed instruction book with all the information we might need. Additionally, she provided us with plenty of helpful parking tips.

We really enjoyed two bedroom apartment with clean bathrooms and kitchen! Francesco was very helpful with recommendations of the restaurants, shops and attractions . We had a beautiful balcony with sea view where we had breakfast every morning, great parking just next to the our building. We were able to walk to the downtown but it is not an easy walk. Francesco gave us instructions how to get to the public parking by the car and that was very helpful.

Emanuela is a great host! The apartment is a gem in a beautiful village. The early morning sunrise from the balcony facing the sea is stunning! I feel at home the moment we stepped in to the apartment. Highly recommended!

This place was beautiful! The terrace and view were the best part. Friendly and responsive host with good local recommendations. It was a little noisy during the day with some construction happening but overall a great location and very nice stay. Thank you!

Had a great time at this Airbnb with friends, would definitely recommend.

Well-located accommodation, close to Catania, Etna, and 1 hour from Taormina. A little out of the tourist center, but several restaurants nearby in Aci Trezza. Excellent recommendations for tours and restaurants by our hosts. Very nice welcome by Julia, many recommendations and detailed information. Accommodation a little cramped if you imagine staying at 4, but ideal for 2 people! Perfect equipment, with beach essentials, umbrellas if needed, etc.

Very beautiful house . And the location was spot on. You drink coffee hearing the peaceful sound of the sea.

The apartment is beautiful, exactly like the pictures, very contemporary with a balcony overlooking the sea at the front and a view of mount Etna at the back. The town, Stazzo, is a small Sicilian fishing village with few tourists. Although we don’t speak Italian, we were welcomed and found it to be a very friendly neighborhood with neighbours meeting on the seafront, passing the time of day with each other. It was lovely to see. When we were there the beaches were just starting to be converted for the summer season with wooden platforms being installed over the rocks but we were happy to swim and sunbathe on the many flat areas carved out on the rocks. All in all, it was a great base to explore the region, you will need a car but you can park right on front of the house, no problem.

Cettina and Roberto are very thoughtful hosts, a basket of local products was waiting for us, we really appreciated this gesture. The house with typical Sicilian decor is very well equipped, very comfortable and clean bedding. What makes this rental so charming is the view of Mount Etna with a field of lemon trees in the foreground. The neighborhood is quiet, and the covered parking is large enough to keep the car cool, which is very appreciable. Local shops for bread, meat, fruits and vegetables within 10 minutes' walk. We highly recommend it.
