Holiday houses in Santo Stefano Medio

We had an amazing week at Villa Panoramica. Pina was so welcoming and went above and beyond to meet our needs. The villa was spotless and a perfect setting for a great week. The kids (and adults) loved the pool and the views from the terrace is amazing. Pina and her lovely family cooked us dinner one night and it was and unforgettable experience with great food and they made us feel like family. We even spotted some lava from Etna one night on the balcony, a memory for life!

The property is in easy access of shops, restaurants and site seeing such as Taormina and Mt Etna. The villa is set in beautiful and immaculately maintained grounds. Giuseppe has very green fingers and the tree ferns and palm trees are magnificent. There is also a really lovely pool which is a great size and very deep one end. It is also spectacularly clean - you will never swim in a cleaner pool. Giuseppe and Giulia are charming and attentive hosts. We were very appreciative of them taking time to show us around the area, the shops and local restaurants - this was super helpful and enabled us to start our holiday straight away! Our hosts were always willing to help out and brought wonderful treats for us the try out throughout our stay. They could not have been more welcoming. The villa has lots of outdoor space which is very well lit at night making cooking and eating outside a real pleasure. We had a very relaxing holiday.

Carlo was a super friendly host. We felt welcome in the truest sense of the word. We were greeted by him personally with a huge bowl of fresh fruit and a homemade cake! Carlo was very concerned about our well-being and gave us lots of great tips and recommendations for the region. The house with the large garden in a very quiet location offers a great view of Mount Etna and at the same time you can hear the sound of the sea. The house is very tastefully furnished, very clean and comfortable. As soon as it got dark, we enjoyed the view of Mount Etna from the fireplace. We would love to come back at any time and can highly recommend this accommodation.

Lovely clean and beautiful accommodation with a great view. Check-in and check-out were flexible and easy. The area is quiet, and it’s easy to get to Taormina by car.

This home is beautiful! The pictures do not reflect how adorable this space truly is. In addition, this was the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. I was very impressed! I had a welcome bottle of wine, a beach bag provided packed with all beach necessities, toiletries galore, decor on point… truly a gem. The view from the apartment balcony is gorgeous. You can also go up 2 flights of stairs to the rooftop. This is the perfect location for restaurants and shops. For the beach, you can take a cable car down (€10 round trip), taxi, or most of the Lido/beach clubs have complimentary shuttles. Would highly recommend staying here!

If you are looking for a spectacular view in Taormina this is the place to stay! It a short walk from the historic city center, but it is uphill so make sure to pack light or take a taxi for check in and check out (taxi was very quick). The house is in a quiet location and just a few minutes to a grocery for amenities. Would highly recommend staying for the view and historic character of the villa! Host was very helpful and responsive.

We encountered hosts + villa we can honestly say—-amazing + even more than we expected! Louisa + Chiara were so wonderful + accommodating, suggesting local activities + restaurants, booking our wish list + providing great advice. The villa is absolutely beautiful, spacious + decorated with the most eclectic artwork. There is A/C in the two bedrooms for comfortable sleeping and numerous porches and balconies to sit and have a meal or cooling drink in the afternoon. The views are lovely + we enjoyed breakfast daily on the porch off our bedroom overlooking Taormina. It is about a 7 minute walk down the hillside to the center of town. You will really appreciate your private retreat of Villa Britannia after a busy day in town or the beach! There is also a large gourmet kitchen stocked with all you need if you love to “cook at home”. Louisa provided us with eggs, milk , cold bottles of water + bread on arrival which was very sweet. This is perfect for couples, families or bride and groom. ❤️

Great apartment with a nice view of Isola Bella! Everything was very clean and the hosts were really friendly. We especially enjoyed the pool!
