Our host, Dominico was a wonderful person. Extremely knowledgeable not just about Taormina but towns and cities close by too. Most attentive and extremely responsive to all our queries. Extremely helpful, packed us a little lunch on the go for our day trip to the Aeolian islands. Also since my wife is Vegan, he went our of his way to purchase & prepare a vegan breakfast every morning. Bonus points to the stunning breakfast room. The property has a private garage to park a scooter/motorbike hence extremely convenient. Absolutely fantastic views from the huge balcony attached to each room of the bay and of Mount Etna too(Which is why we choose this property).

From the moment we arrived, in fact before we arrived, Domenico went above and beyond to inform, help and advise us during our stay. A wonderful host. The room was large clean and comfortable with stunning views of the ocean and Etna (when the weather cooperated) Great shower, fantastic breakfast with so much choice. Bottled water in the room and a kettle and fridge. A brisk 30 minute walk will take you down to the the bus terminal, a bit longer going up, it's quite a climb, plenty of steps but local buses frequent the route as well. We went low season so mostly the open restaurants were down in the centre. Lots of choice. We would definitely stay here again.

Incredible views of Tormina from our balcony which our large clean room opened up to. We could see the clouds moving across Mount Etna from our bed. Our host Domenico was awesome and provided the best breakfast and information about the town and things that we could see and places where we could eat. These proved to be extremely helpful. Parking was on site and Dom helped park our car for us. Home was about a 10 to 15 minute walk down to town. Walk back took a few minutes longer because it was uphill, but well worth the views as a result. A bus is available if you can't walk, or a cab. A very comfortable, quiet 10/10 stay.

Nothing really.

The host was the best! Nothing was too much trouble. Their attention to detail was fantastic. An example of this was having our air conditioning switched on whilst out to cool the room on our return. Room and bathroom were cleaned every day and we liked the attention to detail by giving us a big bottle of water every 2 days. Domenico was a wealth of information and guided us on places to visit, events happening around Taormina and how you can go about getting to places with local transport. The breakfast was exceptional. So much choice and tailored to our taste. We had an amazing week’s stay at Villa Sara and would not hesitate in returning or recommending it to others.

All was great

We spent the first three nights of our Sicily trip at Villa Sara and it was the perfect start. The view from the room's own terrace was a dream (Taormina, sea and Etna), the room with high ceilings was very spacious and clean. The owner - Domenico - gave us a warm welcome and gave us good tips for the area and our further journey. Every morning a delicious breakfast awaited us in what I would call the salon. He even got extra lactose-free mozzarella and milk for me :-). On our last day we set off to Etna very early and were personally farewelled with a packed lunch. The location is perfect - between the lively old town and the tranquil Castelmola. We had booked the garage as it was difficult to park on the narrow streets. When we drove out, Domenico always personally directed the traffic for us ;-). We would like to thank you again for our lovely stay and highly recommend Villa Sara. Kind regards Babsi & Daniel

Thanks Domenico for making our stay very memorable. As our host he communicated throughout our stay, giving advice and help on where to go, how to get there and where to eat and travel tips. Our room was massive with a fabulous balcony with exceptional views of Mount Etna. The bathroom was also big with a double powerful shower, with lots of towels and toiletries. The room had a fridge, and water was provided. Breakfast was provided based on your individual requirements and was tweaked daily and consisted of scrambled eggs, toast, pastries and cheese and cold meats. Yogurts and breakfast cereals. The host was very observant, thoughtful and communicated constantly with us. We would definitely book again, as the host couldn't do enough for you to make your stay a very positive one.

The amount of steps to and from the Centre. Although you could get the bus back but the timetable was a bit inflexible. This is just an observation not a criticism of the Villa itself. Sun loungers on the terrace would have be a nice touch.

Our stay at Villa Sara was simply amazing! Not only is the accommodation in a great location with a dreamy view, but the room is also tastefully furnished, comfortable and very clean. We loved the night views of Taormina. One would want to sit here for hours. The accommodation is not far from the center and at the same time there is a beautiful calm here. The added value of all this is the host Mr. Domenico himself. Domenico created a very pleasant atmosphere. We felt at home. He was helpful in everything and made us feel safe. Thank you for the great organization of our stay and for the great tips. The breakfasts were also wonderful. This guy has it down to the last detail! Highly recommended!!! Thank you and we look forward to seeing you soon. So Domenico....... "Va bene." Matěj and Ondra :-)

nothing

A very warm welcome and hospitality from Domenico. Stunning large light rooms with high ceilings and doors going out onto large terrace. Amazing wide views of the town and Mt Etna - sunrise and sunset. Fridge provided. Great shower. Exceptional delicious home cooked large breakfasts each morning with views of the town. Domenico parked our cars in his garage. He is passionate about Taormina and Villa Sara, and gave us numerous tips of places to go and see. Restaurant Villa Greta is next door and has delicious food and great views of the town. We stayed 2 nights, thoroughly enjoyed our time looking around. There is so much to see and do in Taormina that we could have stayed longer. 100% recommend, hospitality, room, views and breakfast.

Enjoyed everything.

Beautifully situated on the Taormina hillside with incredible views of Mt.Etna and the ocean from every room. Each room has its own large terrace, air conditioning and bathroom. The real highlight for us was the wonderful host Domenico who was warm, and welcoming with a great sense of humour - if he recommends something to you I highly suggest you do it!! Places to eat, bus timetables, day trips…he can help with everything. The breakfasts were amazing too and really set us up for the day. Villa Sara was such a great place to stay and although up the hill slightly from the historic centre (about 15 minutes walk up/down stairs) it isn’t far at all. We loved it!

Nothing!

Dominico runs a wonderful b&b, lives on site, serves a great breakfast, and is eager to make sure you have a satisfying visit. He gave us many ideas about traveling around the region, about restaurants to try and responded quickly to questions we had by email while driving around. The room was immaculate with all the amenities you could want with a door onto a humongous patio which gave a picture perfect view of Mt. Etna. It was a delightful visit.

Street parking since the garage parking was already booked. But really, it wasn't that far away in a VERY safe neighborhood and Dominico was eager to somehow help if we couldn't find parking on the street.
