Villa Britannia

Villa Britannia was one of the highlights of our stay at Taormina. We were there for my daughter's wedding. We reserved the villa during our daughter's wedding weekend, and it could not have been more perfect. The villa is beautiful, full of charm and character, with stunning views and lovely outdoor spaces that capture the magic of Taormina. What truly makes Villa Britannia exceptional is the owner, Louisa. Her warmth, kindness, and attention to every detail made us feel completely at home. She was always available and genuinely invested in making our stay special. One of my favorite memories was the morning of the wedding. The bridesmaids and bride gathered at the villa to have their hair and makeup done while enjoying breakfast, coffee and mimosas. The setting was elegant, relaxed, and absolutely picture-perfect. It provided the ideal backdrop for such an important moment in our family's celebration. Villa Britannia offers far more than a beautiful place to stay. IT provides a level of hospitality that is increasingly rare and creates memories that last long after the trip is over. We are deeply grateful to Louis and would not hesitate to recommend Villa Britannia to anyone visiting Taromina. My next visit is to spend more time at Villa Britannia, where my focus is not on the wedding. Would love to have Louisa cook for a group and give us a complete history of the villa.

Nothing - it was spectacular. Just wish I could spend more days there!

Our favorite place we stayed on a trip filled with marvelous accommodations. Spectacular views from the patios and balconies, a lush garden with a Roman outbuilding, cool art and handpainted décor, gorgeous lounge with a keyboard for music, books and games for relaxing, and a bar for amari tasting. Also an amazing kitchen for cooking (with cool Italian art nouveau posters). Next time (we definitely want to return!) we'd like to take the Sicilian cooking class.

nothing.

We had an amazing stay, the house is beautiful and in the perfect location and Louise was so kind and helpful with whatever we needed!

Nothing! It was great

It was the most beautiful stay of my life. The scenery, the decor, the delicious breakfast, the hospitality of Marco and Louisa, learning about the Roman tombstone in the villa garden, all of it was spectacular. The villa has so much artwork and beautiful books. The kitchen always had some delicious food to eat, and we definitely felt at home while staying there. I can't wait to go back!

Nothing! Everything was amazing!

This was a highlight of our two week trip traveling around Sicily; Villa Britannia is a treasure, overflowing with a fascinating literary history, and with only two rooms, you can almost trick yourself into thinking it is your own private Villa on the Taormina hill side. The terrace of the Truman Capote suite was delightful, superbly comfortable. Villa Britannia is just far enough away (15 minute stroll) from the tourist crowds in a largely residential area, with excellent parking. Great communication and hospitality from Louisa, Marco and their team. A special place.

Nothing

I enjoyed my stay, I felt like I was a guest in Louisa and Marco home. The Villa has a history and the gardens and home are beautiful. It in nestled in the hillside of Taormina with a view of the sunrise while enjoying a breakdast prepared just for you, while you enjoy the views of the ocean and hillside town. It was a 10 to 15 minute walk from villa to palazzo. the walk gave me a change to see more. I would recommend the rental to a couple or family I absolutely loved it!!! Louisa and Marco thank you both for all the assistance and the Memories , grazie ciao bella ❤️

i like everything

What an amazing place to stay, you are made feel welcome from the beginning to the end, everything was perfect. The views, the rooms, the deck, the gardens, all very well presented. Rarely do you get to stay in a place that feels just like it was made for you.

Everything. The setting was delightful. The view from the terrace was spectacular. The hosts were attentive and helpful but respectful. The whole experience exceeded our expectations. It was wonderful.

Nothing!

Beautiful spot full of charm and history only a few minutes walking from the busy center of Taormina. The place is very quiet and peaceful.Louisa does everything to make you feel good about your stay starting with a delicious colazione on the terrace facing the garden and views.

Nothing to dislike!

We visited Taormina and stayed at this beautiful house in early July. The house and the garden are even more stunning in real life, and it's perfect for a family. We traveled with two children aged 10 and 14. The host, Louisa, offered us a 5-star treatment and helped us with booking restaurants, beach clubs, and assisted with everything we wanted to know during our stay. She was always available with the best recommendations. We were there during the Taormina film festival, which is a rather busy time of year. However, Villa Britannia is a quiet oasis away from the crowded areas, and it's still just a very short walk to the center. We completely fell in love with Taormina and Villa Britannia. Louisa went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home in her amazing house and hometown. We will definitely come back and choose Villa Britannia over any 5-star hotel. Louisa's hospitality and the beauty of the house and its surroundings have left a lasting impression on us.
