We stayed in the Penthouse Apartment which was stunning! Wonderful views , brilliantly laid out, immaculately clean. Linda and Andreas were very helpful . I would recommend the Valet parking as parking in Taormina otherwise would be a challenge! Highly recommended!

What a magical experience at Casa Giafari! Our room was spacious and modern with all the amenities you could possibly hope for including a large terrace overlooking the ocean. Linda and the team were more than hospitable and made our stay memorable and gave us great suggestions on where to go and eat. Thank you for everything and we will definitely be back!!!!

What an amazing apartment. Although at the top of some ancient stairs the owners/manager was there to carry our bags up to the apartment and arrange the parking of our car. The apartment was outstanding and well appointed and the view from our room amazing!! Taormina is very hilly so be prepared for stairs and walking. Andre and Linda were to most welcoming hosts. I highly recommend this gorgeous place.

We loved Andrea and Linda's hospitality and plan on returning. The location was perfect. We had a little trouble finding the hotel despite the meet up point they gave us so we ended up video calling Andrea, and he guided us perfectly They took all of our luggage to the room for us (we are American and were traveling for three months so unfortunately we had alot) This was key as we there are many steps up to the casa (128 to be exact) but they made it easy! The location is great, right off of main street in Taormina Rooms were spacious and well appointed and comfy bed, A great restoration of family home and very hospitable Loved it

The apartment was wonderful! The staff superb in any accommodation request. Rooms were clean and the outdoor terrace was fabulous. Do be aware there are several and i do mean several stairs to trek, so not for anyone with any type of walking problems or cardiovascular issues. Not a property for children activities. With all that said, the quiet stay with spectacular views and wonderful accommodations were perfect and well worth the stairs. (Staff will help with luggage for a small fee…pay it!)

The staff at Casa Giafari are beyond excellent! They met us at the base of the stairs and helped bring our bags up to our rooms. Very accommodating and kind people. They helped us organize taxis and called to reserve for us when asked. The property is very central to everything in Taormina. The room was very tidy and clean, one of the more comfortable stays in Sicily. Bathrooms spacious and beds feel luxurious. Will stay again!!

Could not of asked for a better experience. They were so accommodating with anything and everything. Their communication with us was exceptional. Stairs to the hotel can be challenging, but the climb is well worth it!

Acomodação incrível! Staff atencioso. Localização maravilhosa. Apartamento é super bem mobiliado, de extremo bom gosto, muitas comodidades, como cozinha completa. Mercadinho praticamente ao lado. Rua principal a pouquíssimos metros de distância. Pontos negativos: chuveiro difícil de regular e que sai pouca água; apartamento fica muito claro de manhã porque a cortina da sala não fecha totalmente. Muitas escadas pra chegar à acomodação (não é um problema se você não tiver problemas de locomoção). Mas nada que tire a nota 10 da acomodação.
