Family-friendly holiday rentals in Sant'Alessio Siculo

Perfect location right near the entrance for the old town

My husband and I stayed here for two nights and wished we had stayed longer. Upon check in, Dorotea greeted us and was extremely helpful explaining the amenities, sharing a map of the town and recommendations for food, drinks, sight-seeing and excursions. The apartment itself is absolutely gorgeous. The best view you could ask for with a nice area to relax and enjoy the sunshine. The apartment overlooks the beautiful Isolla Bella island - stunning! At night, we enjoyed hanging out in the hot tub (which is shared with the other apartment but that was not a problem at all). It’s an easy walk into Taormina (you can take a cable car up to the city if you would like as well). We highly recommend the steak restaurant Adduma. Amazing steak and tiramisu! You will not go wrong with choosing Dorotea’s apartment for your stay in Taormina :).

The apartment was very modern and clean. It is centered nearby the castle - note that the streets are pretty small in the center of the village, so it's better when you have a small car. Also, the road from Catania to Montalbano are very curvy and damaged at the end.

We had a great week as a family in Sicily. Zuzana and Alessandro are great hosts. Welcoming, kind, and always ready to give us good tips for visits. The apartment is really very well located, clean, well-equipped and the garden is beautiful. Anyway, we recommend it!

The check-in was flexible and easily arranged. The villa was beautiful and very comfortable for two couples, located outside of the city which makes it easy to unplug and relax. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Our stay in Sicily was truly unforgettable! The house had a beautiful character, filled with charming details that made it feel like a home. The garden was a stunning oasis, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the warm Sicilian evenings. Our host, Carlo, was exceptional—always available to answer questions and provide recommendations. The highlight of our trip was the incredible five-course Sicilian dinner Carlo organized for us, showcasing the region's delicious cuisine. Each dish was a delight! The location itself is a must-visit, with breathtaking views and rich culture all around. We felt immersed in the beauty and warmth of Sicily. Highly recommend this lovely spot for anyone looking to experience the best of the island!

Our time at Mario’s house was amazing. The pictures do not do justice to the views from all parts of the home. The property is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. It is huge and beautiful. The home is very safe and is surrounded by a gate, including the driveway. The surrounding area is quaint and very walkable. There are cafes and small shops. We were a party of 8, with two families of 4. There was plenty of space for us all to stay comfortably. Mario and his family were kind and gracious hosts. We would absolutely recommend staying here and my children have asked how soon we can return :)

Brilliant location in the heart of the old city. Beautiful space. We loved the terrace, especially. If you want a vibrant, spacious, attractive place then book this!

We loved our stay at Andrea’s place in Taormina. It was centrally located in the Old Town and came with a beautiful balcony with a view of Mount Etna. The apartment was clean, well-equipped and had everything we needed for the stay. I highly recommend this place and we can’t wait to come back! Thanks so much.

We stayed 2 weeks and it was a great base for exploring the east side of Sicily and Etna. A hire car is essential as the apartment is located in a quiet spot away from the main centres. The apartment itself was spacious and comfortable with great views from the wrap around balcony. The swimming pool was a real bonus - we made use of it most days. Salvatore & Antonio were very helpful and responsive to requests (many thanks!). Highly recommended if, like us, you are looking for a peaceful getaway.

A charming and beautifully located spot in the heart of Taormina. The space was clean, well-maintained, and perfectly situated for exploring the area. The host was attentive and maintained excellent communication throughout our stay.

We stayed 4 nights in the flat and went on day trips to Syracusa, Taormina and Etna. First, the flat is confortable, with every bedrooms having shower and toilets. The living room/kitchen is big enough to have breakfast but not enough confortable if you plan to stay the all day inside. Secondly, but up to me, it is well decorated with upcycled stuff. Finally, the flat is well located. Lots of restaurants and bar near by. And few minutes walking from main touristic area. Stazione centrale might be a little bit far away.

Johanna is a very responsive host, attentive, caring because she is interested in knowing if everything is okay for her guests. The apartment was at the top, comfortable, close to the center. I recommend it and if I come back to Catania, I'll take over this apartment with great pleasure

The place is well ascetic, but everything you need is there. However, you'll need to buy your own tea, coffee, laundry supplies, and other everyday supplies that many homes have. So for a longer stay is fine. The location of this is great. Very close to Piazza del Duomo, supermkarkets, train station, bus station, everything is in the walking distance. A cabin on its own gives you a nice privacy and cozy stay.

We stayed for a week at 6 people on the upstairs part of the house. The apartment does not fully match the photos since a bedroom has been added to the living room … but the living room remains very spacious. There were no shutters ( and no opaque curtains in the living room) which is a shame when you sleep in the living room and the sun rises at 6 a.m. ... and especially to cut off the sun when it's very hot . The kitchen was not sufficiently equipped rather rustic Thankfully Sonia was responsive to our requests. The A/C was essential but not good enough to refresh the rooms. I would say that the apartment is worth it for the terrace and the view of Taormina and the tranquility if there are people on the ground floor ( this apartment must be more suitable for a long stay). The exteriors are really magical and very enjoyable during the heatwave they are also very well maintained .

Very quiet area, two minutes from the village, very helpful owner and comes to meet any need you have, I recommend it, we rented it close to Epiphany and finding stockings for the children was a real surprise, I highly recommend it ps: barbecue area and children's games really a treat

Beautiful villa at the base of Mt. Etna. Very large pool and garden. Nadia and her family are close by and very responsive / always willing to help. The location is great as it is close to the volcano and a 15 min drive to the beaches. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back!

We had an amazing week. The house is beautiful and cosy, the pool amazing. Maria, Jay and Joel are lovely hosts. We felt really welcome. A quit place very near the Etna. We got great tips!

Lovely Airbnb in a private compound. Walkable to the little village of Santa Tecla and to a Hotel with a nice Lido. Paolo was a great host and very responsive throughout the stay.

Magical place in the middle of nature with a magnificent view. Etna in the background, and a very welcoming and available host. I recommend it!

We enjoyed staying at Alessandra's holiday home during a very warm few days in early September. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was very much appreciated. The house is on a very busy road but once you have negotiated the gates there is no road noise at all as the house is set well back from the road. The house is surrounded by lovely gardens and has a fabulous swimming pool which we used daily and was just the job after a hot day sight-seeing in the locality. We were very comfortable in the house which had everything we needed for 4 adults.

What a view!! This place was great. Plenty of space for the four of us. Clean and comfortable too. The kitchen was very well equipped. Many, many stairs and an uphill walk to get to town, but lots to do and places to eat when you get there! A+

Welcoming hosts and good advice. The accommodation is nice, perfectly clean and the well appointed space in front is a plus to enjoy the outdoors.

Cute place to relax! The host was really nice!
