Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit im (inzwischen) gelben Türmchen. Es liegt an einer winzigen Einbahnstraße (man sollte sich nicht vom Navi dort durch leiten lassen, sondern sich auf Carmens Beschreibung verlassen), strandnah, aber fußläufig zum Ortskern mit seinen Restaurants und Läden. Carmen hatte einige gute Tipps für uns, das Häuschen war gut ausgestattet, und die Lage erlaubt tolle Ausflüge, da man schnell überall hinkommt. Lediglich die Loungemusik aus der nahen Villa Garbo trübte manchen Abend auf dem schönen Balkon. Insgesamt aber alles bestens :)

FeWo auf kleiner Grundfläche, intelligent und originell aufgeteilt auf drei Etagen. Sehr sauber und teilweise kürzlich erst modernisiert. Meerblick von der Loggia im 3. Stock. Nur 1 Minute zum Strand, das Zentrum von Letojanni ist fußläufig in 5 Minuten zu erreichen. Küche ist für Selbstkocher eher etwas spartanisch ausgestattet. Sig.ra Graziella ist sehr freundlich und gibt bei Bedarf gerne Tipps für Aktivitäten. Wir würden in jedem Fall wiederkommen!

Die Wohnung ist ansich schön, gemütlich und man hat alles was man braucht. Die Lage ist top (auch wenn mit dem Navi nicht direkt hinkommt). Carmen, unsere Ansprechpartnerin, ist super nett und hilfsbereit. Einen kleinen Minuspunkt gibt es für die Größe, denn für 4 Erwachsene ist sie definitiv zu klein. Maximal 2 Erwachsene und ein Kind. Aber ansonsten kann man die Wohnung nur empfohlen.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt im Turmhaus bei herrlichem Sonnenwetter Anfang Mai sehr genossen. Die Unterkunft ist gepflegt und sauber. Der Blick vom Balkon auf das Meer herrlich. Ausreichend Platz für zwei Personen, Küchenausstattung gut, Lage und Infrastruktur eignen sich für Ausflüge nach Taormina und in die Ätna-Region. Parkmöglichkeiten direkt vor der Haustür. Der Strand fußnah erreichbar. Das Örtchen ist reizend mit Strandpromenade und guten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

We spent great time in this house. Very close to the beach. It was great waking up and walking to beach to take a dive and come back for a good breakfast. Carmen is a very warm woman always available for any question. She made herself available even if we were arriving on a Sunday. She is also very reactive. The fridge stopped working on day, the next morning she was there early in the morning with a replacement. Carmen gave us many advices on how what to visit. We changed many of our plans and followed her tips and we were very pleased with the result. Do not forget, not to follow your GPS to get the house. Take in consideration Carmen’s direction to get there. That will avoid you to find yourself in very tiny streets.

Wir waren mit unserer 18 jaehrigen Tochter fur 12 Tage im Piratenturm und es hat uns super gefallen. Koennte nicht naeher zum Strand sein, alles super sauber und gepflegt, gute und ausreichend Handtuecher. Und eine Waschmaschine! Uns war Ruhe wichtig und die Vorsaison bietet leere Straende und auch Taormina war noch nicht so ueberlaufen. Wir bedanken uns bei Carmen, die uns alles gut erklaert hat - Geschaefte in naechster Nahe und eine wunderbare Baeckerei - G and A bakery! Und fruehstuecken auf dem Balkon war einfach richtig schoen.

Tuvimos mal tiempo en éste hermoso lugar, sin embargo recomendamos conocerlo. Carmen es sumamente atenta y servicial.Alitalia había extraviado nuestro equipaje y dimos su teléfono. La contactaron y recibió en su domicilio nuestras valijas. El departamento está muy bien equipado. La vista desde el balcón es un encanto Saludos Inés y Rolando

Herziger Piratenturm, sehr sauber, wunderschöne Aussicht aufs Meer, Strand und Restaurants in der Nähe, Carmen ist sehr freundlich, herzlich, hilfsbereit und gibt nützliche Informationen für Ausflüge in die Umgebung

Wer den ersten Kaffee morgens im Sonnenlicht genießen möchte, trägt das Tablett gerne hinauf. Denn auf dem Balkon ganz oben lockt der Meerblick. Das kleine Haus ist sauber und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, wir haben uns zu Zweit sehr wohl gefühlt. Da das Haus nahezu am Ende der Promenade von Letojanni liegt, war es Ende Mai hier auch noch schön ruhig. Toll ist die Nähe zum Strand, und dazu hatte Carmen einige Tipps für Trips in die Umgebung parat. Mit Mietwagen ist das Piratentürmchen ein ideales Domizil, um die Region rund um Taormina und den Etna zu erkunden.

Ein kleines, aber feines Häuschen, das wirklich kaum näher am Strand liegen könnte. Leider war das Wetter nicht so gut, dass wir die Strandnähe hätten häufiger ausnutzen können. Zu Fuß ist auch ein Lebensmittelgeschäft schnell erreichbar. Carmen ist sehr nett und hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben. Wir hatten Probleme mit dem WiFi, woraufhin sie sich sofort darum gekümmert hat und sogar mit einem Techniker kam. Uns hat es sehr gut im Piratenhäuschen gefallen und wir würden dieses oder ein anderes Haus von Carmen jederzeit gerne wieder buchen. Leute mit kleinen Kindern sollten allerdings bedenken, dass die Treppen sehr steil sind und das obere (blaue) Schlafzimmer keine Tür hat. Wir hatten jedenfalls Bedenken unseren 5-jährigen Sohn dort oben schlafen zu lassen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Carmen needs to try a lot harder with this. The pictures show the apartment nicer than it is in real life. There is not trimming around the balcony. It is bare concrete. the kitchen contains cheap plastic garden chairs. The kitchen is very, very basic with no dishwasher, very few utensils and tiles that have not been replaced for many years and look tatty. It is student quality or worse. For 1000 euro we expect a lot more than this but we were not going to let this spoil our holiday so we made the most of it. We have stayed in houses all over The US and Europe and this was the 1st time we have felt it was poor value. Otherwise the location is quite good. Avoid mid august though because the place gets crowded to the point of ridiculousness as it is some sort of Italian holiday.

We stayed in Carmens lovely red house for a week in May. The location is great, it was very quiet, yet restaurants and shops are in walking distance. The beach is just across the street and nice and clean. Inside everything is nice and new, the house is well equipped and we found everything we needed. We stayed there with our 7-month-old daughter and our 4-year-old son. Our son had the top room and felt just like a pirate, on the lookout for ships :) Breakfast or dinner on the terrace are great! Even Etna was cooperative and spat out a little ash every now and then, so we had something to tell when we got back home (although unfortunately Etna cannot be seen from the house or even Letojanni). Taormina is just around the corner, and Carmen had a list of highlights in the area and recommentations, and we made numerous lovely trips. Even our car was parked safely round the corner from the house. Carmen was fantastic and the greatest help when we forgot our travel documents in the house - thanks again for saving the rest of our trip, Carmen :)

We spent a lovely week in Letojanni, a very charming seaside resort. Carmen kindly came to Taormina to pick us up and then get us settled at the house. She had picked delicious strawberries and blood oranges from her garden to welcome us which was a great touch. The property is compact but charming. The rooms are small but there is plenty of storage space to put everything away. The terrace outside the top bedroom is lovely - a real suntrap in the morning and amazing views down to the sea. Carmen reccomended a fantastic restaurant to us in nearby Mazzeo - really delicious sea food. She also explained the bus system which is a little sparse but proved very reliable and an excellent way to get around. The main square in Letojanni was a fabulous place for a coffee or a sicilian breakfast of granita and brioche and the fishmonger in Letojanni was also fabulous - we had delicious marinated anchovies from there and he had a great selection of very fresh fish all of which was easy to prepare and cook in the kitchen of the property. My daughter (20 months) had a great holiday in Letojanni - lovely place to take kids. I will say that the house had a lot of stairs so perhaps not the most child-friendly but having said that my daughter had no problems getting around the house. Defintiely recommended for a quiet, relaxing time.
