A friendly and kind host, good location and a lot of space, but the hygiene and lack of renovation made the stay quite a
A lot of space, a pool, not bad location (10 minutes by foot to taormina, back around 15 mins), free parking, friendly host that allowed us to check in earlier and provided a baby cradle. Views are great theough the balcony/ from the pool.
The place seriously needs to up the standards for cleanliness as well as a dire need for a renovation. Hard to justify the price now. Don’t get me wrong, the sheets and towels and bedding were clean at least, but many other things were not, not to go into detail.

Active and relaxing
Great place, far from crowdy streets and cars and close to places that you want to see.Spectacular wiev!!! We are active family so we don't afraid of many stairs, but it was also a pleasure to stop and watch and just breath and be happy here! After visiting Taormina it's great to rest in swimmingpool and a Sun, with this landscape. House is spacy so it's great choice for family and a Group of friends. Nice garden with sicilian plants and parking place for a car. Great positive and helpfull Host. We got informations and help with trips to Etna and Alcantara river. The Best place after busy life to visit beautifull Taormina and have a rest. Thank you! We want to come back!

Great views and host but not great house
We recently stayed at Villa Branco in Taormina, Sicily, and had a mixed experience. Emanuele, who took care of us during our stay, was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to help. He went out of his way to make us feel welcome and comfortable, and we’re really grateful for that.
The location of the villa is truly fantastic—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful views. The pool was also a lovely feature and definitely a highlight of the property.
However, the apartment itself could use some attention. The layout felt awkward and oddly distributed, which made it less functional. There were barely any power outlets, which made it difficult to charge devices or use appliances. The kitchen was very under-equipped, lacking even basic items, which made cooking at home quite inconvenient.
The internet was also not working during our stay, so we had to rely on our mobile data, which was a bit frustrating. Additionally, there was no heating in the apartment. Emiliano kindly brought us electric heaters, but unfortunately they weren’t powerful enough to warm the entire space, especially during colder nights.
All in all, while the surroundings are beautiful and Emiliano’s hospitality was exceptional, the apartment itself needs some love and practical improvements to justify its price. At the moment, it’s not quite good value for money.

Extremely disappointing
The Villa has lovely views of the surrounding areas. Pool is lovely but not private.
When we booked this apartment the information was incorrect stating a private pool ( they have now been made to change this to state a shared pool since our complaints).
The pool is used by not only the next property, but also by the manager and his friends that he invited at any time of day including 5am. There was nothing private about the property as the manager treats the place like his own holiday home and when we questioned him over this he became more aggressive everyday. The managers behaviour forced us to leave after 4 of our 9 days stay.
We did contact the owner with our complaints before leaving, at first they seemed understanding but once we left they failed to return any of our calls or messages. Thankfully booking.com were very helpful regrading our complaints.
We also took the airport transfer for 90euros, which is more expensive than a taxi transfer, the manager collected us from the airport with no space for 2 cases so our 8 year old daughter had to travel on the motorway without a seat, let alone a seatbelt as there were only 2 seats in the back of the car.
I would not recommend staying here, as the owners or manager do not care about customer service. By the owners changing the description of this Villa from private pool to shared pool, proves that our complaints were 100% correct and we should not have been told by the manager that if we were not happy we should just leave. We are still awaiting an apology from the owners who have failed to contact us since we left.

Struttura bellissima, in posizione panoramica con vista mozzafiato. La piscina era curata e l’ambiente molto tranquillo e rilassante. Personale gentile e accogliente.
Nulla da segnalare, tutto è stato all’altezza delle aspettative.
