Breathtaking views!

Nothing. There was a lot of bees but this is nothing to with the apartment.

The view from the apartment was breathtaking, overlooking Taormina and Castelmola.

The hosts Karen and Diego were amazing nothing was too much trouble for them and their advice and knowledge was really useful. They were lovely to deal with and we had one of the nicest dinners in Sicily prepared by Karen. The views were spectacular, the pool was lovely and clean and always sun beds available. You also felt very comfortable and safe and any of the short term and longer term visitors we met were lovely. The beds were very comfortable and they had everything in the apartment you would need it was really home from home. They also have local wine and olive oil available which was very tasty. I would recommend to hire a car as we did some half day trips and an overnighter to Palermo which was great to see but we were glad to go back home to the lemon tree. Diego also very kindly organised a paragliding experience for our daughter which was amazing.

Karen and Diego were brilliant hosts from start to finish, excellent home cooked traditional food, clean, tidy and quiet rooms, lovely pool with view, easy parking. Can't recommend this hide away more, than to say, we will be coming back ( and we never, go back)

You are so kind, the facilities are so big, and the view of Taormina is fantastic. Also, the pool is perfect

We loved it. You 100% need a car though, we'd have been in a pickle without one.

Lovely people running the place, great view. Highly recommend getting Karen to cook for you one night, it was the best meal we had all trip!

It could do with a couple more road signs at strategic points, to reassure their visiting guests that they are on the right road. Light bulbs needed replacing in our room and a couple of squeaky doors were minor irritants.

Fabulous views. Good facilities. Out of town location was preferable for us. Diego and Karen are welcoming and very friendly and helpful. Very comfortable bed. Plenty of suggestions of places to eat, best gelato! best ways to get places etc.

It is amazing! The villa is magic. The view incredible. The sunset and sunrise were unique

Nothing - loved it all

The views are outstanding and every comfort was thought of including essentials like soap, shampoo and washing up liquid - the olive oil they make was a bonus too which was also provided. The beds were comfortable and the 2 bed apartment worked well for us as 2 couples. The initial draw was the table tennis and the swimming pool.

Great place with an amazing view upon Taormina and Castelmola and the ionic sea. Lovely kept swimmingpool and gaming area. Easy access to visit Taormina and its Roman-Greek theatre or the higher up situated Castelmola. Highly recommended. Paula, Karen and Diego are great host with very helpful infos on the places to visit including restsurants and grocery stores.

We really liked this place. Stunning views from the property. The mattresses could be more comfortable

THE ROAD UP THE HILL IS TOTALLY UNMATKED...NO REFLECTORS. IT WAS DAUNTING THE FIRST TIME I DROVE UP AT NIGJT. I GOT USED TO IT THOUGH...THAT IS THE ONLY NEGATIVE POINT ' BUT THE TRADE OFF WAS THE QUIET, VIEW, AND PRIVACY. I WILL GO BACK...

The position on the top of the mountain. Paula, the manager was great. There were two Lively dogs.

Stayed in March 2025

There is nearly nothing that I did not like. Maybe the barking dogs were sometimes a bit annoying, but that is all.

Room with perfect view on Taormina. Very friendly owner. Relaxed environment.

Not much except for the fact that we couldn’t walk anywhere as it’s up a hill , but we did know that before booking .

Amazing views, gorgeous pool,excellent facilities including table tennis, darts , table football , tables and chairs to eat and drink outside enjoying the view which was especially nice if you booked a room facing the mountain . Generous, friendly and easy going hosts made our stay very relaxed.

Incredible views from either side of the property. Karen and Diego made our time in Taormina even more exceptional. Will be coming back in the future

There wasn't anything.

The Lemon Tree is an exceptional holiday home resort. The grounds including the pool area are beautifully landscaped with plants and flowers throughout. The view from the patio is breath taking and there is ample seating to relax and take it in. Our two bedroom apartment was spacious, well equpped and comfortable. I cannot think of anything that was missing. The best part of our stay was our hosts Karen and Diego. They were very welcoming and made sure we were comfortable whilst we were there. They go above and beyond in providing recommendations for places to eat and things to do. For a minimal fee they also provided a shuttle service into Taormina which saved us the headache of parking . I would definately rate this a10/10...

It completely exceeded our expectations. In pictures looks beautiful but in real life is stunning! The whole place is nicely designed and well kept. We loved the pool & game area, super relaxing atmosphere with everything you need. The apartment is pretty, it’s big enough for 4/5 people and it’s well equipped. Paola welcomed us and she’s fantastic, full of tips for the area and always available. Also we highly recommend to have dinner the first night you arrive, Karen cooks simply delicious food and it’s accompanied by local wine & homemade limoncello. Diego is always there to help and have a nice chat. What else to say, the view from the top is amazing and totally worth it after the winding road.

The villa is located on a hilltop with amazing views of Etna and Taormina/Castelmola which we enjoyed from our terrace. Apartment was spotlessly clean with everything we needed and more. The pool was the perfect temperature and it was so nice to relax away from the hustle and bustle. Karen, Diego and Paola were fantastic hosts and Karen made us an amazing welcome meal. You can tell it’s a special and well loved place to visit :)

Car is necessary to get to the beach and Taormina. In Taormina is a parking house which is quiet expensiv. There is no breakfast option which would upgrade the accomendation in my eyes.

Great view over Taormina especially from the pool. Nice relaxing area with pingpong and kicker table. Very friendly staff and owners. We really enjoyied our stay. Parking in front of the house for free. Really recommendable.

Karen and Diego will treat u like extended family! We were so sad to leave! Will be back and spend at least a week at this fantastic town and will only stay at The Lemon Tree ! Don't miss this for the world !!
