Stefano y su esposa una maravilla. Lugar encantador, limpio u super seguro. Todo el tiempo disponibles para ayudar

Villa Victoria is beautiful with amazingly views across the valley. We had a wonderful week. Stefano and Vicky were excellent hosts and supplied us with lots of local information. We enjoyed relaxing on the lovely terrace and swimming in the large pool. The villa is well equipped and beautifully furnished .

We had a very warm welcome from Stefano and Vicky who showed us the accommodation and how everything worked etc. There is a beautiful private outdoor area for relaxing, eating and sunbathing, with fabulous views of Taormina. Theres also a swimming pool for use of guests.

The weather !!! Unfortunately lots of rain during our stay - but it didn't spoil our visit.

Villa Victoria and its hosts, Stefano and Vicki, offer a perfect example of outstanding accommodation combined with warm hospitality. We stayed in the terrace apartment as a group of four—two adults and two children (aged 15 and 6). Despite our flight being delayed and us arriving well past the planned arrival time, at 10:00 PM, we were warmly welcomed. The road to the property is adventurous, but the breathtaking view is worth every bit of the effort! Even at the late hour, Stefano took the time to thoroughly introduce us to the apartment. Since all the shops were already closed and we hadn't had a proper meal all day, the provided pasta with tomato sauce was a real blessing. There was also water available. When we noticed a flickering bulb in the living room, Stefano immediately replaced it, despite the late hour. Additionally, he brought us Parmesan and ice cubes that same evening and showed us the herbs on the terrace that we could use for cooking. The accommodation itself was excellently equipped and left nothing to be desired: coffee, sugar, oil, detergent, salt, pepper, soap, body lotion, ironing board, iron, and much more were all provided. The private terrace, furnished with seating, sun loungers, a dining table and chairs, a sunshade, and a large umbrella, was a wonderful place to enjoy our morning coffee and watch the sunrise. The air conditioning effectively cooled the entire apartment. We particularly enjoyed the evenings spent grilling on the terrace; charcoal and firelighters were also provided. The terrace door was equipped with a mosquito screen, so we were not bothered by any pests. Another highlight was the large pool, which offered plenty of space for fun and was surrounded by ample seating and lounging options. The pool was also very clean, as Stefano carefully maintained and cleaned it every day. The garden was lovingly designed, and it was clear how much effort had been put into its upkeep.

The welcome by the gracious and friendly hosts, Stafano and Vicki, was exceedingly warm and very helpful. The view from the villa is spectacular, and it's equipped with pretty much all you need (apart from a corkscrew - no big deal, and I suspect these tend to disappear as they get taken out for picnics by guests). The steep cliffside drive to the property takes a bit of getting used to, but it's very much worth the journey when you get there. The swimming pool is fabulous and the surrounding gardens are lovely. Overall, there's virtually nothing not to like about this villa, and it's definitely a place to which we'd love to return one day. Taormina is busy, but has an interesting Greek amphitheatre to see, and the villa is not too far from Siracusa, which is very worth visiting.

It's nothing that can be remedied, but visitors should be aware that the drive up to the villa from Taormina requires a bit of care and attention, being relatively narrow, with numerous blind switchback corners. Scenic, but scary at times.
