Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Gioia Tauro

A BEAUTIFUL view of Taormina and mount Etna. The place was lovely, with amazing views and a nice open kitchen/living room. Both the kitchen and bedroom had doors out to the patio which was stunning. My only note is that it’s kind of located in a “no man’s land” of food/groceries and takes some serious hill climbing to get to each. But that’s also just part of Taormina and we expected it, so it was no problem for us.

This place is super clean and cozy, with a terrific view of both the Etna volcano and the seashore. You could have both shimmering dots along the coast and the flaming mountain summit - if you're lucky enough. The supermarket is easy to reach and the airbnb is close to the city center. Chiara is super reliable and responds quickly. Angela is super nice as well. I would definitely recommend this house to you!

Great for a couple. From the beautiful terrace overlooking the Bay of Taormina!

It was a cozy and modern space where the host felt a lot of affection for the accommodation! Paolo was a really super kind person: (We arrived on the night train and arrived quite early, but right before the people met us before they even checked out, and they helped us check in after that: (They were so kind and thankful that we were so sorry. Super thanks to Paolo! I hope to see again you sometime👍👍

We stayed here for 3 nights over Easter weekend. Paola was very responsive from the moment we made the booking. She also assisted with restaurant recommendations. Her father - who stays just below - was incredibly helpful and friendly! He offered us some home made sweets which is part of their cultural celebration of Easter and made us feel at home and welcome.

I would recommend this place, we were very well received by Manuel who even helped me with my suitcase. The accommodation matches the photos, very clean, well decorated and equipped. It is perfect for 2 and is ideally located: close to a supermarket and 5 min walk to the main street of Taormina, while being in a quiet area.

Fantastic location. Caterina is a kind person, making sure I was well taken care of. She offered great recommendations for dining and sightseeing. The apartment has everything travelers may need.

We had the most wonderful stay, the house and its location is just beautiful. We really enjoyed the scenic setting, the quietness, privacy, and comfort of the house (modern, very good bed, ..). On top of that we were welcomed by the very friendly hosts, who treated us with a most delicious cake, fresh eggs etc. Would love to return to enjoy this paradise.

+ Everything is good and Franco is a very good host + He is always available and very helpful + Franco shows you the area. - The fridge is a bit noisy. - There is no real kitchen.

Extremely beautiful second house, it exudes class; private entrance gate with long driveway with fruit tree to house. Elegantly designed house which fits in the area on a mountainside, surrounded by large garden full of old olive trees. The owner is super told when explaining the house that olive oil in the kitchen comes from your own garden and not to be concerned if it runs out, there is more. Furthermore, there is terrace around the house both in the sun or out of the sun. Excess of kitchen items, fine oven and BBQ. Enjoy the sun.

Anita is a great host. The apartment is amazing. Great location in the city centre. Spotlessly clean. 2 balconies, small back garden. Well ecquipped. A few minutes to the parking ( porta catania)

Special thanks to Alessandro, he is a friendly and helpful person who made us feel immediately at home. He provided us with useful tips on the area and places to visit. The accommodation is great for location and tranquility and corresponds in all respects to the description. Highly recommended.

My friends and I had such a wonderful stay here at the beautiful Johnny & Mary Villa! Graziella was extremely helpful and friendly, and made check-in extremely easy. The description of the listing matching perfectly to the home itself. I would absolutely love to come back in the near future.

Salvatore's house is a place where you'll instantly feel at home and won't want to leave. The attention to detail, cozy atmosphere, thoughtful decoration, and care for guests' needs make it truly special. The house is spacious, offering a beautiful kitchen with everything you need, a serene living room, and a wonderful view. Our eight-year-old daughter chose the upstairs room. Although the house is large and we were staying downstairs, she felt completely at ease and wasn't scared at all. A lovely hiking trail begins just 25 minutes from the house. It’s a peaceful retreat and an excellent base for exploring Calabria. Highly recommended. Salvatore is a warm, kind, and generous host.

It was our first time visiting Taormina and it was a perfect holiday. Graziana’s apartment is really lovely and in such a great location. Only a few minutes walk to the centre of town and with a wonderful view of the sea. We especially loved sitting on the balcony in the gorgeous sunshine every morning. We had everything we needed in the apartment, lots of storage space in the bedroom, a comfortable sitting room, fully equipped kitchen and excellent bathroom. Graziana was there to greet us when we arrived and she kept in touch during the week, offering advice on places to visit and making sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We highly recommend Graziana’s accommodation!

Carlo is a very friendly and welcoming host. The apartment is beautiful and very tastefully decorated. We slept incredibly well from the first night - the waves are right below the apartment, exactly as described. We were very happy with our stay, and sad to leave. Thank you for the hospitality, Carlo!

Friendly host, great location, great stay.

The place was a perfect location and very nice. Vincenzo was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommended this place.

Casa Lionessa, the location and the communication with Chiara was above my expectations. The view from of the bay and Mt Etna from the sunny terrace both day and night was spectacular and being across the road from the gorgeous park and moments from restaurants, bars and the Bam Bar made this an ideal romantic holiday location. The support I received from Chiara when my lugguage was lost by the airline was amazing. I would stay again in a heartbeat.

New apartment in great location, pleasant hosts! Within 5 minutes via stairs on a Caribbean dream beach, deserted, at least in September. Great terrace with sea and stream Boli views, daily sunset. Supermarkets nearby, car required. Also to Pizzo you should only drive by car. Beach bars were already closed in September, everything was very peaceful and quiet. Great clean sea with high temperatures, beach unfortunately heavily plastic littered

If you’re looking for a safe, secure, and spacious accommodation that feels isolated but is right next to everything you need to see in Taormina then you found the spot. The apartment has a beautiful terrace overlooking the Sicilian coastline and neighboring Calabria. Beautiful pool, gardens, and easy access to the Main Street of Taormina. The place was stocked with supplies, plenty of blankets, pillows, towels, some food, and a delicious bottle of wine as a welcome gift. Highly recommend for a first time visit to the area!

The view from the balcony was wonderful! The pictures of this apartment don’t do it justice. The balcony was big enough for two to enjoy coffee or wine. Really felt like a local but had enough restaurants around. Everything was walkable up and down hill. The apartment was not so big, but very comfortable for two. Can’t say much about how the kitchen worked, because who wants to cook when so much Italian food is at your doorstep? However, we were there the day many things closed down at the beginning of November. Still, we found good places to eat. Would recommend this apartment.

the apartment was spacious and comfortable and the couple on site were very friendly and welcoming, but not intrusive. the kitchen was well stocked
