Hoteles y resorts de lujo

We really enjoyed our stay, our second in two years (previously stayed for two weeks).

Service und Gastfreundlichkeit lässt arg zu wünschen übrig. Von dem uns bekannten Personal, sind die Zimmermädchen, das gesamte Badeaufsichtpersonal, zwei Serviceangestellte und zwei Receptionisten top, der Rest flop. Die gesamte Anlage wird gemolken ohne auch nur einen Hauch in Renovationsarbeiten zu stecken. Die Aussicht aufs Meer ist Wunderschön. Das Frühstück ist im Kasernenstil, schade wenn man bedenkt, dass Sizilien kulinarisch einiges mehr zu bieten hat als Rührei mit Speck. Danke für die Erfahrung wir sind geheilt.

Sad that we could not access the sea from the metal stairs near the outside ladies room.

The Luxury Residence at Taormina is of a truly exceptional standard . . .everything has been put together with ultimate comfort in mind. The location is fantastic, possibly not great for those with mobility problems but for even an average level of fitness, the short trot up to the lift to the top of the village was an enjoyable way of earning one's lunch or dinner! The layout of the apartments and the extent of the vast terraces offers maximum privacy whilst the beautiful solarium area offers the opportunity to be more sociable with fellow guests - children to play and interact etc. Francesco is a particularly accommodating host - he gives a 5 star and very individual and hands on service. Things like beds, furnishings, kitchen wear, hot water etc are all tip top here. If you are dawdling over a booking here . . .I'd say 'go for it' . . .you wont regret it. I work for a company who operates high end lettings in the UK - and I was more than impressed. We will be back.
