"San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel might be completely out of your budget, but that doesn’t mean you can’t experience Sicily in a more affordable manner. “Italy's largest island is a year-round destination, with the exception of a few coastal towns like Taormina and Cefalù … [and] it's an absolute pleasure to travel there in the offseason (from November to April), with very reasonable hotel rates and some of the best value dining in all of Italy,” says Ternavan." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Set on bluffs above the Ionian Sea with sweeping views of Mount Etna and the ancient Greek theater, this former 14th‑century monastery turned luxury retreat features a lavender‑scented, lemon tree–lined private garden and a 70‑foot infinity pool that seems to drop into the sea. Its 111 rooms and suites showcase original frescoes and French doors that invite Mediterranean breezes, and the Michelin‑starred Principe Cerami serves refined seafood plates such as langoustine with green apples and celeriac and turbot with artichokes and Etna olives. While there is no private beach, guests can reserve lettini at several nearby beach clubs for time on the sand." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
