We loved our stay at the villa. The property was spacious and well appointed. Our hostess greeted us and provided delicious fruit, water, and other beverages. She checked on us mindfully throughout the stay. The walk to town down the hill takes about 10 minutes if you can keep track of the right stairs to take and the walk back is about 20 minutes depending on fitness level. The views from the multiple porches and balconies were stunning and never got old!The only thing we weren’t expecting (probably because I just missed it or sent thinking) was all the steps to get inside (no elevator). Be mindful of that with the elderly or kiddos.

Cinzia is a great host! Greeted us on our arrival from the airport, and kept in touch during our stay. Cinzia even provided a beautiful fruit and snack basket as well as refreshments to get us started and to enjoy during our stay.The house is lovely and the view is stunning! I could have stayed at the house without going anywhere else. The outdoor patio area is perfect. The house was immaculate and very comfortable. We highly recommend staying here!

Villa La Gorgone was more beautiful than even the photos could suggest. The terrace was huge and a true gathering spot for relaxation and drinks. The view was perhaps the most spectacular you will find. A breathtaking vista of the Ionian sea, Giardini Naxos, and a full view of Etna. Enza Maria was a fabulous and gracious host, attentive and available with good information about Taormina and the surrounding area. Comprehensive reading material and guidebooks were available to read if desired. She met us at check in and made it easy. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated and well appointed. Lots of wonderful amenities were at our disposal. The kitchen was so nice. Plenty of room for 5 of us and could easily accommodate more. The three bathrooms made it very comfortable for us. The hot tub was perfect for early morning sunrises. We used the laundry which was great to have. Several terraces provided space for all to enjoy. There is an enclosed garage for the car which was a nice amenity to have especially for a rental. The walk down to Corso Umberto wasn't too bad, we managed to do it at least once per day, usually more. It is a beautiful way to work off the pasta, gelato, and cannoli. Porta Catania and Porta Messina both easy to get to. We walked down for granita every morning. Might be a little difficult for the elderly, but it was not too difficult for the 71 year old in our group.A truly beautiful home, with a view that is hard to beat. Grazie mille Cinzia!

Host was amazing!! She thought of every detail to make out stay perfect!
