Hotel Villa Belvedere

What a beautiful hotel! The rooms are simply gorgeous—lovely, clean, well appointed and serene. Pool has a wonderful view of the sea and coastline, and there is a bar open all day for food and drinks. Breakfast buffet selection is very good—but you wouldn’t know that you can also order omelettes unless you saw someone else do it. That being said, the service in all the hotel was top notch. We highly recommend.

We booked a week at the villa rigamonti at this hotel. It was an amazing experience. The photos on the website do not do this place justice so I’ve put some in this review. The “villa” is very private, tucked away on the same level as the pool which made it very convenient for quick trips to the pool. It’s spacious, newly renovated with 2 full bathrooms and a full kitchen, and has lots of lovely outdoor space with a great view of the sea. The hotel itself is wonderful. Great location just a few minutes walk from the main strip. It’s very quaint and the pool area is to die for. Definitely recommend having a drink on the patio before dinner to enjoy the sunset. The service was great and everyone was lovely. Would definitely stay again!

The quality of service we received from the moment of contact until the second we left was impeccable. Special thank you to Rossana and Mario for all of your assistance! The view of the sea from our suite was just breathtaking, the breakfast that was provided every morning was elaborate and delicious, the pool area for guests was an oasis with a stunning view, and the location was great! Our suite was clean and had everything we needed for our family of 5. It was very family friendly as well. Highly recommend! Our only regret is that we wish we stayed longer to enjoy it even more! It was difficult for us to leave such a lovely place!

We visited Villa Belvedere for the second time this year after having an incredible experience last year and it did not disappoint. Once again they truly pampered us and made our holiday feel special.||||The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable and the views are absolutely stunning. One of our favorite parts of the property is the pool area. It is surrounded by gorgeous plants, flowers and fruit trees, making it feel like a peaceful garden retreat. The food served by the pool is excellent and I especially enjoyed their house Negroni at the bar which is one of the best I have had.||||What really makes this place stand out is the staff. Every single person we interacted with was warm, kind and genuinely helpful. They went out of their way to make us feel at home which made our stay unforgettable.||||We cannot wait to return again. This hotel is always the highlight of our holidays.

Hotel Villa Belvedere is perfect.|I have visited the hotel many times and it maintains an incredible standard.|Immaculate inside, beautiful outside and worth every penny. All the staff are friendly and so professional.. Rita and her colleagues are all so lovely as are the poolside food and drinks they serve. Fabulous cappuccino! Thank you to Team Belvedere!

Absolute perfection! My family and I stayed for 9 days at this hotel and had the most incredible and beautiful experience! The service was incredible (especially Rita) , the rooms and amenities were amazing and the location was central to everything! The food was unbelievable and the staff was so helpful with planning activities such as boat rides and beaches! I highly recommend the hotel!!!

One of the best and most memorable hotels we've ever stayed at.|Its location in central Taormina makes it easy to get around on foot, with restaurants and shops just a short walk away.|The hotel itself is small and charming, with a cozy atmosphere. |The garden and pool area are fantastic, offering a stunning sea view and a lovely little restaurant/bar. There are enough sun loungers for everyone, and everything is clean and fresh.|The staff are incredibly service-minded, managing to be both professional and deliver 100% personalized service. We will for sure return to this brillinat hotel to further explore Sicily!|/Leif and Anna

Hotel Villa Belvedere is a peaceful oldschool italian hotel. Located in a huge beautiful garden. 10 min walk away from the crayzy busy city center of Taormina. Location are perfect & the view stunning. Its very clean & well maintained. Pool area amazing with enough sun loungers. Great bar/restaurant by the pool. High quality lunch for a good price. |The most amazing with this hotel are the staff. All of them super friendly & professional. I want to mention 2 female workers in the reception, they cant do enough to help. Housekeeping also very good. The 2 womans that work breakfast & by the pool also superb. Lounge with lobbybar in the reception area. No evening restaurant, but its not need since its hundreds of restaurant nearby. We had 2 rooms for same price. Room 37 was very good & nice, but room 54 much smaller & not on same level. Dont know why such big difference in same category. The gym was very limited, could have better equipment. Also no water & towels in a gym is not good enough. I read many positive reviews about breakfast, we was not so impressed. Lots of sweets, but not so much healthy fresh options. Omelet, coffee & orangejuice was all disappointing. So we skipped most days & took brunch by the pool instead. Highly recommended for a stressfree peaceful holiday!

Absolutely stunning location, beautiful breakfast. Plenty of spaces beautifully decorated. We stayed in the Rock Suites, worth every Penny. Special staff, especially Joshua.

beautiful hotel. quaint and special. staff friendly and so helpful.very professional. throughly enjoyed our stay

This is a truly special hotel in one of the most special towns in all of Europe. Taormina is of course sensational and Hotel Villa Belvedere offers the very best of what you can find in the area. It's a little out of town, but the walk through the public gardens or via the teatro greco make for a lovely stroll into the main area (do know, however, that if you are looking for something near the main tourist strip, you will likely walk 10-15 minutes to get there). Overlooking the waterfront by the pool with an Etna spritz is really an unforgettable experience, as is the incredible breakfast, the excellent staff and the comfortable albeit somewhat cramped rooms. One caveat to all: we had requested interconnecting rooms or something adjoining when we booked months in advance. The manager assured us he would do his best. They also offered a family villa for the price we had paid for the 2 rooms, which we should have accepted (we didn't, and we ultimately wish we had, despite the fact that the view was not as special - you can really enjoy the view any time in the breakfast and lounge areas, or by the pool). When we arrived, the best they could offer were rooms nearly 8 doors apart. We worked out a favorable compromise and they were really very willing to work with us, to their credit. But, if you are hoping for truly interconnecting rooms, you will not find them here. The garden suite has sufficient space in the living room for two twin beds (but the garden area is full of mosquitos and frogs, so both unusable during the day and evening and noisy at night), or perhaps the villa rigamonti would be a worthy alternative. We managed to make do with a small suite that had an extra twin bed, which they augmented with a second bed for our young kids. It was perfectly adequate for us. Ask for room 65 if you are in a similar situation and wish to pay for just 1 room but have your kids nearby). All that said, the service is very special, the location is stunning, the beds very comfortable. The breakfast is unmatched and Taormina itself is simply not to be missed.

I can't say enough about this hotel! The staff from Maria, to Joshua, to Antonella and Marco and the little older man at night were EXCEPTIONAL! They made not only my Husband's birthday and our anniversary special- they went over and above for us! The room, the view, and the hotel in general are outstanding- I honestly felt like I was staying with my family. The staff made sure everyday we had amazing places to eat, shop, and tour. I do admit my Husband and myself are a very "high maintenance" people and they met every requirement we had- massages, hair appointments, makeup appointments, and our laundry was done to perfection! I would highly recommend if you are visiting Taormina this is where you need to stay!
