Sciccosa Guest house is a beautiful property located high up on the hill overlooking Taormina-Giardina. Staff are attentive, clean rooms, amazing view. Great to stay if you have your own car, as cost is 15-20 euro for each trip to beach or town of Taormina.

The staff and facilities are top class. Great views, gorgeous pool. The location was not good for us. You have to drive every day. Can’t walk to anything. This doesn’t suit us. Next time we would stay down in Guardia Naxos. But if you don’t mind this it is perfect.

Nice place but in à middle of nowhere. Road to get there not easy. Always need the car to go for dinner. At the arriving, our host was ok but she seems to be in a rush to give us the détails of the place and on the explanation of the Map to see around. It was very clean and the pool is nice !

A wonderful place to stay if you are visiting Taormina. We had trouble finding it because the address is not in Waze, but ones we found it it was worth all the troubles. We put the location in Waze, so future guest should have no trouble finding it.

Hammer Unterkunft, empfehlenswert

Wir waren eine Woche da, fühlten uns von Beginn an sehr wohl. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und löst die Gäste eine familiäre Atmosphäre erleben. Ein Ort zum Abschalten, Stress abbauen und erholen. Abseits des stark frequentierten Taormina sehr ruhig gelegen mit phantastischer Aussicht auf das Meer und nach der Küste Süditalien.

Die Lautstärke ist eine Katastrophe, man hört alles durch die Wände. Aber am schlimmsten ist es, wenn die Angestellte um halb 7 das Frühstück herrichtet :( da ist an ein gemütliches Ausschlagen nicht mehr zu denken. Sonst ein gepflegtes Hotel nur ein bisschen abseits vom Zentrum

Superbe vacances, cette magnifique villa excentré dans la montagne est parfaite de À à Z la vue est sublime, le personnel au petit soin. Ce qui est bien avec cette villa c'est que vous êtes "loin" de la ville qui est blindée de monde, mais en même temps à même pas 15 min en voiture des grand parking qui permette de rejoindre la ville à pieds. Notre chambres était superbe, ouverture des volets le matin et vu imprenable sur la mer. Des vacances parfaite, piscine de jour et de nuit superbe, je recommande à tout ceux comme nous qui veulent visiter Taormine mais en même temps garder une tranquillité. Étant en petit comité dans cette villa vous êtes vraiment chouchouté, pas comme dans un hôtel ou il y a beaucoup de mouvement.

Das Sciccosa Guest House ist einfach traumhaft schön gelegen und super gepflegt. Es sieht alles genau so aus wie auf den Fotos. Sie legen sehr viel Wert auf kleine Details und auf den Service. Man fühlt sich wie daheim, da es nicht so groß ist. Das einzige negative ist, dass die Zimmer eine normale Zimmertüre haben und dadurch auch hellhörig sind. Der Weg dahin ist auch nicht der schönste aber immer wieder gerne für so eine Unterkunft! Jeder Cent hat sich gelohnt! Frühstück war auch sehr liebevoll zubereitet und für alle Kulturen was dabei. Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen!

Situated high up in the hills surrounding Taormina, this hotel is a bit hard to get to (car is a must) but once there you will not regret it. We we were lucky enough to get a room with spectacular sea views. The rooms are modern, clean and very comfortable. There is a rooftop terrasse with an infinity pool overlooking the bay below. The staff is professional and friendly and the breakfast is great. All in all a very nice experience.
