Villa Suk

Ubicación y vista. Buen parking

Debería tener baño adicional

Top-Lage! Cristiano und Antonella waren sehr nett. Trotz Stress aufgrund der Reparaturen wegen des Cyclone im Januar waren sie da und hilfsbereit, wenn wir Anliegen hatten.

Der Lärm bei der Nachbarwohnung (spitzen, bohren, fräsen) hätte nicht sein müssen. Aber dafür konnte niemand etwas (Wasserschaden) und die Arbeiten mussten erledigt werden.

Op basis van de reviews wist ik niet precies wat ik kon verwachten, daarom voor reizigers na mij hierbij een uitgebreide review: Wat heeft deze accommodatie allemaal aan pluspunten? 1. De locatie: super dichtbij Taormina en tegenover Isola Bella. Het mooiste uitzicht dat je je kunt voorstellen op Sicilië. 2. Een eigen parkeerplaats: gelet op locatie een enorme pre. 3. Het appartement: een ruim, schoon appartement met veel faciliteiten als wasmachine, zeer goed uitgeruste keuken, 2 badkamers en drie slaapkamers 4. De buitenruimte: een tuin, een balkon, een dakterras en een zwembad (die laatste is gedeeld). 5. De host: super vriendelijke eigenaar die snel reageert, ter plaatse een host die ook heel snel reageert en behulpzaam is. 6. Taormina als uitvalsbasis: vanuit deze plek kun je de hele oostkust (Siracuse, Catania) eenvoudig verkennen, de Etna en zelfs steden als Cefalu als je een auto tot je beschikking hebt.

Wat heeft deze locatie niet? Ik las dat mensen dachten dat er allerlei voorzieningen waren die een hotel heeft. Dit is een appartement, dus je doet zelf je boodschappen en zorgt voor het eten (ontbijt). De derde slaapkamer is een aantal traptreden verder, dus iets meer “los” van het huis. Maar helemaal prima met eigen badkamer, airco, etc. Het enige dat ik op kan merken, is dat de bedden niet heel comfortabel zijn. Het appartement is ingericht in Italiaanse stijl. Wij vonden dat passend maar verwacht dus geen moderne meubels maar wel heel sfeervolle en complete inrichting.

Excellent location, amazing view of isola Bella and the grotto swimming area is a hidden gem

So, I just got back from an early spring trip to Sicily with my parents and a friend, and we stayed at this place Villa Suk in Taormina. It was seriously amazing! Our apartment was huge and had these incredible, totally clear views of the sea, where you could see the beaches and Isola Bella. Plus, it was super private - like right on the Taormina cliffs! The old city center of Taormina is just behind and above the villa, which was so convenient. The place was super well-kept, really clean, and we felt totally safe because it was in a private apartment complex, which felt really exclusive and fancy. Plus, there was a private pool just for the people staying in Villa Suk, which made it perfect for a chill, elegant, and private getaway.

Villa Suk is a really great place to stay in Taormina, and it's super private, but just a heads-up on a couple of things so you know what to expect! The inside is more like a comfy, homey vibe, which is awesome if you want to feel like you're staying in a private villa. But if you're picturing a super modern, or super sleek-minimalist hotel, it's not really that. Also, the apartments are pretty big, which is perfect if you're with a bunch of people. But if it's just you and a couple of others, it might feel a bit too spacious. To really get the most out of it and enjoy the amazing views from the cliffs, I'd say it's best to go with at least four to six people – it's ideal for a memorable trip with family or friends!

This villa is a condo in a complex of about 20 or so units. No words can describe or do justice to the garden view, it’s by far the most beautiful view in all of Isola Bella! All of the hotels and other locations have obstructed views but here you are literally hanging over the cliff. Straight down in the elevator is the private rock deck swimming area that was just amazing. The villa was well appointed, clean, quiet and as advertised. Bedrooms are large and very comfortable, kitchen is small but well equipped with everything you need at your fingertips. Check in and out were easy and hassle free. Supermarkets and restaurants are within easy reach. We can only wonder how nice it would have been visiting in a warmer time of the year and being able to enjoy the evenings out sitting in the garden with its views. You are away from the Taormina crowds and yet, just a few minutes away from the city center - I would highly recommend this place.

Villa Suk is located over Isolabella Bay with stunning views and an ideal position for seeing the wonderful sights of Sicily - both nearby (such as Taormina and Castelmola) and along the eastern coast via car (e.g. Syracusa, Alcantara Gorge, and Mount Etna). The cable car to Taormina centre was a 15-minute walk. There is a dedicated swimming pool (shared) and easy access via a lift or stairs to a stunning private shorefront immersed in Isolabella nature reserve. The house garden is terrific with the most wonderful view you can imagine (even better than the pictures!) - if you are an early riser, the sunrise over waters is simply breathtaking. The villa itself is beautiful with a very stylish living room all in 70s style, the three bedrooms and two bathrooms are not luxurious (but we were not expecting so) but large, clean and comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals.

The location of Villa Suk is fantastic and its garden is overlooking Isola bella bay, the best view you can imagine. The house is not luxury but is very stilish with an original 70s style in the living room. The kitchen is small but fully equipped with all you need. The bedrooms are large and confortable, bathrooms are clean and new, especially the one on the second floor. The house complex is very well looked after by the carers.

Holiday was too short!

We were definitely in Taormina, Sicily. The terrace and the view - quite overwhelming! The terraced townhouse complex can only been seen from the sea. That just added to the magical feeling of the entire building- enchanting!

Only issue not for anyone with mobility issues. Lots of staircases externally and internally. Not a problem for us but could be for some.

“VILLA” SUK - BE AWARE Villa - a house, usually in the countryside or near the sea, esp. in southern Europe (orig. Roman) Condominio - a building that contains several flats/apartments, each of which is owned by the people who live there. On offer here is not a villa, but one of 24 adjoining flats with party walls, under a carpark, at Condominio Il Suk. The units are accessed from a long corridor under the carpark, each having a door looking into the corridor. The units are dependent for natural light on the front aspect onto their very small garden. Look closely - the electric lights are on in all the daylight photographs of the inside of the flat. Our accomodation smelt musty; the wallpaper was bubbling from the walls, and there were cracks in the ceiling. This apparent case of damp may be ameliorated in the high (and dry) season. Take your own essentials – as the owner Francesco Basile pointed out to me, the information pack he sent after I had paid in full, observes: “Please note that our villa is self-catering. Although we provide one set of house linens (bed linen, bath towels etc), a toilet roll and a courtesy soap in the bathrooms, you should provide your own bathroom supplies (e.g. shower gel, shampoo, toilet rolls, etc.) and kitchen staples (e.g. sugar, tea, coffee, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, paper products, etc.).” The photograph of the plate of oranges in the kitchen is perhaps an oversight. The caretaker of Condominio Il Suk told me there was no pool and it was dangerous to try to swim in the sea. The website said the pool was temporarily closed, but the access to the sea was a non-starter for my 10-year-old daughter and my son with special needs. Fortunately, Taormina Mare has 2 fantastic five-star hotels we stayed at instead (the Mazzaro Sea Palace, and the Atlantis Bay Hotel - we unreservedly recommend both), and the joy of Taormina was undiminished by our short, unhappy experience of the “villa” Suk, of which we had inaccurate...
