We like everything about the apartment.. starting from the host..she was so lively and attentive.. the apartment was dully equipped and clean.
We sure recommend others to stay and we will definitely go again.
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'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.
Wonderful location in Castelmola right on the Main Street. We chose Castelmola over Taormina just to avoid the crowds and enjoy the view. I’m so glad we did. This apartment had a very well stocked kitchen, great hot water, comfortable bed and even a washer (although my clothes wouldn’t quite dry completely in two days). Communication with host was great and we’d absolutely choose to stay here again.
We had such a wonderful stay at the hotel! The family running the hotel is so nice and paying attention to every detail. They really want to make you feel great at your stay. I had my birthday and they were so kind to upgrade us to the suite! They even wanted to prepare something for breakfast because we didn’t find anything gluten-free the day before. Very much recommend the stay here!
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 loved everything about the property. As soon as you walk in you are taken away by the stunning view of mount etna peaking through an arched window. this is especially beautiful as the sun sets in the evening. the hotel has a lot of charm and character. the staff are kind and welcoming. i especially loved how sweet one was!
The view from the terrace was magnificent! The owner and his entire family provided perfect hospitality and were always there to assist us. The hotel was beautifully furnished with true antique Sicilian charm and furniture. We felt perfectly at home.
The location also had easy access to restaurants and shops.
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.
The view from the room was worth a 1 million dollars. At breakfast we spent a lot of time just looking at the view. The location of the hotel was very convenient to a number of restaurants.
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!
