The views from our room were incredible despite the weather not being fantastic. In the morning we were pleasantly surprised by the size of the breakfast with more than enough food for two of us. The host allowed us to leave our luggage after check out so we could walk around Castelmola.

Amazing view and an overall stunning location. The apartment is clean and nice. The smell of wood inside, so it makes it more authentic. Costantino is a great host who helped us a lot even though we were a bit late with the check-in, he was waiting for us!

The tiny apartment is to be found in one of the friendliest (and shortest) alleys I have ever seen, close to a fairy-tale square and basically everything in Castelmola. Since it is a very small town built on top of a hill, there are two car parks outside the town where you can leave your car. The apartment is only about a ten-minute walk from there, but be prepared to pay 10 euros per day for the parking. The apartment itself is clean, nicely furnished and equipped with everything and Castelmola is a dream.

Value for money
I stayed for 2 days; exploring Taromina early in the morning. I started from Castlemola and then took a walking track all the way to Taromina. (about 1 hour). The next morning, we drove to Mount Etna, which took about 1.30 hours. My stay was memorable.
Host Alberto is attentive and excellent. Thank you for hosting me.

Room with balcony facing the coast with the Italian mainland in the distance. Great views up and down the coast. Relaxed with tea as the sun set.
Amazing place to stay. We went to Taormina for the day and enjoyed Castelmola during the evenings. Amazing view of the city and Mt Etna from the castle. It was easy to get to Taormina and we used both walking paths to get upto Castelmola, we enjoyed both paths equally. Loads of good shops/restaurants in the area too. Pizzeria Nina for pizza was amazing.

It's a lovely small village above Taormina. It is quiet, has beautiful views and friendly locals. The centre is lively, however not crowded or noisy. It was perfect, we loved it even better than Taormina!

Old Narrow streets, little bars and restaurants with spectacular views from so high,quite small so not too exhausting walking in 30+ temperatures but plenty of choice for refreshments including the famous bar Turrissy. Ours was a "family" visit with my Wife and eldest daughter 39!

You have to climb to go anywhere.
You have to climb to go anywhere. There are only a few shops. Some restaurants don't open until 7pm. The views of Mount Etna are fabulous. It is very safe. Try the almond wine over a bowl of ice cream; you won't regret it.

Castelmola is an exceptional and unique place.
Castelmola is an exceptional and unique place.
The views are incredible, the choice of food is fantastic, and the locals are warm and welcoming.
We were lucky enough to see Mount Etna light up during our last evening there, which made the whole trip for us.
Castelmola is a beautiful little town about 20 minutes higher than Taormina. It doesn’t have a touristy feel to it, while it has some great restaurants and lovely people.
This little house is right in the center of old town and yet very quiet. The bed is comfortable and the shower is great! Right next door is a great place to get coffee and a chocolate croissant. There is free parking about a 5 minute walk and a bus every hour to Taormina.
Thanks to Adriana, the owner, for helping me!
It is a magical place with a beautiful terrace where you can sit for hours looking at Mount Etna. To experience all of that you need a car to get there. It is a house with an amazing atmosphere, not a soulless apartment or hotel room. The openness and friendliness of the hosts is an undoubted advantage of this place. Collecting fruit from a nearby orchard with the hostess will remain in my memory for a long time.
The apartment is very clean, comfortable, good atmosphere, well equipped with all facilities. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped to cook simple things. The host was very nice and helpful and speaks English. The apartment is located in the centre of Castelmola, close to everything. We had a great time. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to relax above Taormina in a quiet, beautiful little village.
The location is perfect for viewing Mount Etna and the sea below. The apartment is spotless. The facilities are very good. The host Alberto is very friendly and helpful. He even offered to bring us to the apartment from the railway station by car. He showed us around Taormina and Castelmola. We quite enjoyed the short stay in the apartment.
The village of Castelmola is beautiful and the property if five minutes or less from the center and from a great mimimarket. It is easy to catch the bus into Taormina. The house is well equipped and there are good supplies of water and fruit juice when you arrive. Giuseppe is a great host and replies promptly to calls for help.
We had a great time at Casa Giorgina. It's a comfortable home full of charm close to the main piazza of lovely village of Castelmola, which gives you some of the best views on Etna and Taormina. The house is very well equipped. We much appreciated the welcome with fresh fruit and wine too. Thanks for having us. Xxx
The hotel is situated really high up on the mountain with magnificent views of Mt Etna. We had a room on the third floor (so be sure to pack light as there is no lift). The hosts were friendly and helpful although English proved a challenge. A decent typical Italian breakfast was provided in the morning.
Stunning location in Castelmola (overlooking Taormina), comfortable bed and great room and bathroom. I managed to arrange a second night very easily last minute with the help of the friendly staff. Use of lock car park was very handy also.
Good location to visit Taormina and stay for a night. Amazing views. Great service from the person at the desk, not so much from the lady serving the breakfast. Wonderful views, nice experience at a vintage hotel.
The location is perfect and the views are amazing. Castelmola is calm and relaxing and there is a bus stop right outside the hotel to go into Taormina for more liveliness and sight seeing.
Located outside Taormina close to castelmola. Host was great , received us with some drinks and offered great advices on nearby places. Restaurant has lots of options and food was great.
Amazing view to Etna and mountains, central location in very beautiful Castelmola, very helpful and friendly staff, close to several very nice restaurants. Good heating for winter!
The B&B is located on a hillside with a great views over Taormina. A short walk to Castelmola. Restaurant is available on site and it has great food. Breakfast has room to improve.
