Villa holiday rentals in Villa San Giovanni

It’s a beautiful villa tucked away on top of a hill! The villa is clean and utterly beautiful!! The hosts left some gifts for us like wine and olive oil. Just an amazing experience. The views from this place are unmatched, even at night! The outdoor space is perfect for hanging out.

Rigtig fint hus, der passer godt til flere voksne, vi var 4 afsted og der var rigelig plads. Der var en fantastisk udsigt fra huset over Messinastrædet.

Le logement de Lucilla est absolument incroyable . Vous êtes littéralement subjugués par la vue sur la mer. La terrasse est la pépite de la maison. La maison a été récemment rénovée, les fenêtres et volets sont tous neufs et les moustiquaires étaient très utiles (bien qu'en avril nous avons eu qq désagréments avec les moustiques !). Les clims réversibles sont aussi supers et toutes neuves. Nous avons eu quelques soucis mineurs avec des problèmes électriques récurrents mais Lucilla a toujours été réactive . La douche mériterait également d’être un tout petit peu plus grande :) Comme décrit dans l’annonce Vous pouvez accéder à une plage par la terrasse (marche + escalade de rochers). Nous avons réussi à le faire avec nos deux enfants de 4 et 8 ans Nous vous recommandons de visiter Tropea, la place de Pizzo et ses ruelles et l incroyable vue de Scilla. La calabre a été une magnifique découverte ! Merci encore

Pasqual was an amazing host always responsive and very friendly, we loved the olive oil from his Olive grove and all the local pate and onions and spreads that you can purchase and it makes for great gifts. The views were breathtaking and the dogs enjoyed the grounds and freedom so did our daughter while climbing the olive trees daily. Perfect family getaway we will definitely be back. Thank you so much Pasqual

The home was perfect for our family of 5, with 3 being teens. Of note, one of the bedrooms and bath are separate from the main dwelling, but adjacent. Pictures do not do this place justice. Luigi met us personally to assist in getting parked as the driveway is a bit tricky the 1st time but a perfect safe private parking option. Car is nearly a must. Had the most wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub! Luigi was always quick to respond with recommendations and to answer questions. AC worked well

I can’t say enough about this property. It was very clean, plenty of towels for my family of 5. The kitchen was stocked with groceries. The rooftop with jacuzzi and lounge chairs was such a nice perk. Yes there are a lot of steps but it’s Taormina! Nicolo was so helpful with restaurant recommendations and helping bring in our luggage. We would definitely stay here again!

Der Aufenthalt bei Guiseppe war wirklich fantastisch. Das Haus ist wunderschön - der Blick auf das Meer atemberaubend, der Garten mit viel Liebe und Auge fürs Detail gestaltet, die Wohnung blitzsauber und mit allem ausgestattet was man sich wünschen kann und ein fantastischer Pool als Krönung. Besonders gut wird uns der Aufenthalt aber wegen Giuseppe selbst in Erinnerung bleiben - so ein angenehmer, sympathischer und zuvorkommender Mensch - ein perfekter Gastgeber und Gentleman, dank dem wir uns sofort willkommen und bald wie zu Hause gefühlt haben. A presto, Pino.

Roberto was very friendly and provided us with great recommendations nearby. He was very responsive to our requests and was a great host. I would recommend him. The house was amazing.

I’ve stayed at many Airbnbs around the world and this is one of my favorites. The property is stunning and the furnishings and villa itself are authentically Italian. The location is unbeatable, it’s a 5-10 min walk from restaurants, groceries, shops, and the cable car. Theres even an access way to a hike to Castelmola next door. Waking up to the gorgeous view and enjoying coffee on the terrace was our favorite part of the stay. The groundskeeper Sergey was so helpful and kind. We let Donatella know in advance one person in our party had an injured ankle and she arranged for Sergey to bring our luggage to the villa upon arrival and he even met us at 7am the day of our departure to carry it down (please tip him handsomely if he does this!). Also big shout out to Davide, the driver we were put in touch with and used throughout our stay. I would recommend the property to anyone traveling to Taormina!

Lo más lindo de la casa es el área exterior que es hermosa. Tiene diferentes rincones con muebles muy cómodos para compartir hermosos momentos. La casa está sobre la playa. Dentro es muy cómoda, no es lujosa pero es espaciosa. Quedamos muy conformes con la propiedad. Muchas gracias

We had a wonderful time at this property! Daniella was incredibly helpful always responsive and had great recommendations. The house photos do not do it justice! The outside space is amazing and the inside was clean and had everything we needed. The surrounding area is beautiful with lots of wonderful food options walking, beach, shops, etc. Would definitely love to come back!

Great property - just a little tricky to get to if you don't have a car, taxis and transfers take a long time in Sicily It's a beautiful home - would come back

Fabuleuse maison avec un accès privé à la plage qui fait tout le charme de l’endroit. Et de multiples terrasses toutes aussi agréables les unes que les autres. Excellent accueil de Maria Gabriella

Toller Ort mit tollem Blick. Restaurants in Laufdistanz. Meer zu Fuß erreichbar. Ausstattung in der Küche sollte etwas mehr sein …. Daher hier und da einen Stern Abzug.

We had a great time … thank you !

Ambra and Orazio are extremely welcoming and helpful hosts. The price of the stay is justified by the amazing sea view, the private access to it (a stones and pebbles but comfortable beach, with pristine water) and the vast, beautiful and well equiped ground. The house is relatively large and niceless decorated. It is good to be aware of a few details: barely functioning internet, some noise from the road (it can be an annoyance at night from the bedrooms) and old windows. Overall, it is nevertheless worth recommending.

Giuseppe and his wife, Angela, were the kindest, most hospitable, most caring hosts imaginable. The villa itself is a dream, but to have these fine people along with it is to enjoy a perfect combination. We stayed in the off season, so some of the Seaside amenities were not available, and a few restaurants were closed, but it did not impact our enjoyment of the area very much. There is a bus stop almost directly in front of the house, which makes it very easy to get to and from the nearby city of Messina, including access from the central rail/bus terminal. There is a food and sundries store within walking distance, a post office—and of course plenty of gelato vendors! The Villa’s pool is gorgeous and beautifully maintained, although cushions for the lounge chairs would be a big plus. We were glad to have a washer/dryer in the Villa but operating them took a lot of guesswork—manuals would have saved time. Overall, a stunning home in a lovely location, with incredibly kind hosts.

Nous avons passé un séjour en famille paisible et extrêmement agréable dans ce logement. Le logement est parfaitement conforme à sa description et nous a hébergés très confortablement (4 personnes). La belle terrasse avec vue sur la mer et la plage privée à proximité immédiate garantissent de profiter au mieux d'une situation géographique privilégiée et d'un littoral parmi les plus beaux de toute la Calabre. Lucia a été une hôte parfaite et prévenante: réactive, cordiale, arrangeante et prodigue de conseils pour nous assurer un séjour réussi. Ce fut une très belle manière de clôturer nos vacances d'été et une expérience que nous serons ravis de renouveler dans le futur.

The house located in a truly peaceful and relaxing place, with lemon trees and olive trees around; the house is very beautiful and lovely, with lovely flowers around the garden, and smell really good. Vanessa and her family are very kind and nice, provided us everything we need. It's easy to drive to so many nice restaurants nearby, and very close to several towns and cities. We had a wonderful week here!

Vielen Dank für den angenehmen Aufenthalt! Pawel war stets erreichbar und hatte gute Tipps zB für Restaurants und eine Lösung für einen zweiten Parkplatz. Alles in allem gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Kaffeemaschine war während unseres Aufenthaltes leider defekt, zum Glück gab es noch Alternativen (French Press) in der gut ausgestatteten Küche. Ansonsten hatten wir eine tolle Zeit! Liebe Grüße

What a fantastic stay! The views were spectacular and the outside space had lots of different areas and view points. An incredible place for star gazing! We enjoyed the feel of the villa - it was comfortable and had everything we needed - even a little welcome hamper. Antonio was a brilliant host… immediately responsive and a really pleasant chap. Nothing was too much trouble. He also arranged for our taxi ride back to the airport which was early morning! Thanks for having us :-)

Overall this place was exactly as advertised. Beautiful views and and amazing outdoor area that we took full advantage of, including the relaxing outdoor shower. Private parking and a quick drive to anywhere you needed to get to. I would highly recommend staying here 10/10

We were in Taormina for a wedding & picked this place to stay because it accommodated the 5 of us easily (each with a private bathroom), it had spectacular views & 2 pools. It couldn’t have been a better choice for our stay, conveniently located to the center, scenic, peaceful & spacious. By the next day we all felt at home. We took endless photos of the views as they were breathtaking overlooking the city & filled with greenery. The rooms were spacious and comfortable (each with air conditioning!) The host was helpful, friendly, and very responsive. A couple of notes for future guests: reaching the villa involves a fairly steep uphill walk, followed by steps leading into the house (not unusual for Taormina), but worth being aware of if mobility is a concern. While the villa overall was very comfortable, we’d recommend updating the living room furniture, as some pieces felt worn out & uncomfortable. Otherwise, this villa really elevated our whole trip experience. Highly recommend!

Peace, tranquillity AND privacy, not spoiled even by the occasional music from Zambrone resorts below. A family of 4 adults & 1 young child, we managed to get around in quite extreme heat without a car using local trains & the occasional taxi but the climb from beaches to the Villa is challenging! Scooters might be good. No oven but induction hob, sandwich toaster & kettle for cooking but we managed fine without. Swimming pool more for dips than meaningful lap swimming but often we had it to ourselves. The air con couldn't quite cope with the heat of late July/early August but then neither could we:) We LOVED the big garden swing, the amazing views of the coast & the SUNSETS! Markus is a really considerate host who responded quickly whenever necessary. And Francesco offers great local support. Our arrival flight was delayed so Francesco needed to be at the Villa late at night to greet us and he was really welcoming and helpful. A lovely place to stay.
