Chateaux Lemon in the lush Taormina countryside-2 pools-8 bedrooms-top garden

The villa-chateaux lies in the countryside of Taormina in a gorgeous old family estate producing lemons, oranges and olive oil, 2 kms from the beach and 7 from Taormina. Restaurants, shops and facilities are distant a few minutes driving from the property. The shopping center in the main street of Taormina is distant 10/15 minutes driving from the property where you can find the top world brand shops like: Louis Vuitton, Dior, Hermès (opening soon), Gucci, Dolce e Gabbana, Armani, Tods, Lacoste, Falconeri, Moschino, Rolex. The area is the same one where the White Lotus series was filmed.
The Chateaux is close to the beach, Taormina and shops and in the mean time far from all.
The garden is large, well kept, mature and surrounded by an immense countryside. From the garden you can also admire a breathtaking view of the Etna volcano (distant enough to be admired without any danger). There is a large gazebo in the garden to have meals or to stay alfresco overlooking the volcano and a stunning barbecue area in the lemon grove. In the summer evenings you can dine in the garden under the big gazebo (fit for 20/30 pax) and sometimes you may be lucky enough to admire the eruptions. A unique natural show in the world!
In the garden there are two swimming pools. One bigger and deeper in the lemon grove with a diving board and an amazing solarium in the lemongrove and the other one smaller ideal for children (3,90 feet deep).
Peace and serenity are guaranteed. Both the main house and the dependence have direct access to the garden.
The house has been restored conjugating the charme and the modern utilities such as air conditioning, heating, fridges in all bedrooms, ice maker and wifi.
Fit for max 16 people the house is ideal for families and groups who like luxury and the peace of the countryside.
GROUND FLOOR: there are 5 double bedrooms (Queen size or twins) with their own bathroom with shower ensuite , a large comfortable sitting room with stone fireplace , a charming confortable dining-kitchen room, a large terrace.

DEPENDENCE ADJACENT TO THE VILLA: two double bedrooms with their own bathroom ensuite (2 bathrooms with shower) , a small kitchen-living and an exclusive gazebo with a small garden.
MAX CAPACITY including the dependence16 pax.
The property is ideal for a vacation for family groups, friend groups, business group.
Top for children as well. Ideal for country lovers but close to Taormina and to the beach. THE PROPERTY CAN ALSO BE RENTED WITHOUT THE DEPENDENCE (see VRBO property n. 10355208).

Great spot for family vacation

We had a fantastic stay. Communication was excellent in helping arrange transportation when needed and a couple of delicious meals served on site cooked by Maria. The property is charming and beautiful and very spacious for the twelve people we had in our group. We had the most wonderful time!

Love this place!

This villa was the perfect place to spend with family. It was the highlight of our trip to Sicily. Beautiful scenery, 2 pools, and highly recommend their breakfast and dinner options. Maria’s homecooked Sicilian meals were the best food on the entire trip. Nice and close to Taormina and Mt. Etna day trips. Excellent communication made check in and stay very enjoyable. Laundry onsite was a bonus.

Family & Friends

We stayed here with family and friends as we were attending our son’s wedding in Taormina. The prefect location for accessibility to Taormina and surrounding areas. It allowed us to spend time together pre and post the wedding. The pools and surrounding grounds were well maintained and a great respite from the heat! Overall, it was a great facility.

Slice of paradise in a wonderful location

This amazing villa worked wonderful for our family of 10. With three different dining locations, two pools and many different gathering areas. We used the pool daily and just loved the communication with the owner and Mathilde were great. Mathilde could not be more accommodating with suggestions and helping with some minor issues. Just loved every minute. Would stay here again, no question about it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Beautiful villa well located to explore the area.

Our extended family of 9 stayed her for a week in July. The views from the grounds are beautiful and we were very surprised by the amount of space you have outside with plenty of room to sit in the shade, swim and sunbathe. We also enjoyed a game of football with Etna as our bsckdrop! All the bedrooms are a good size with their own bathroom. Monica was very welcoming and helpful and a real star. We booked Maria to cook for us one evening which was fantastic. As well as amazing food, Maria was so friendly. Nearby we visited Taormina, Isla Bella and Naxos which are all lovely but very very busy. We loved Castelmola as very peaceful and Ragusa. The only things I can suggest in terms of improvement would be a better bbq (in size and weight); a larger kettle and some more sun loungers. Would definitely recommend for a group of friends or family.

Great Villa

Excellent villa in a beautiful location with views of Etna across the vineyard from the garden. Swimming pool well used and shaded outdoor table and chairs welcome in the heat. Accommodation was spacious and clean, although beds somewhat hard, and the kitchen had limited equipment. Easy walk to village, which had many ice-cream shops to the delight of our children and also simple shops and restaurants. Many things to do in the area including visiting Taormina, Mount Etna, River gorge and beaches/boat trips. Monica was an excellent manager - very friendly and efficient, and the meal cooked by Maria for us was amazing. I think it should be made clear on the owners direct website that air-conditioning is not included in the price of the villa and it is an extra that needs to be paid -the amount requested did seem somewhat excessive to us. Overall though we had a great holiday and would recommend this villa.

Perfect friend/family getaway location

We were four families with young children and the layout of the rooms and the property was ideal for us. The kids played all day in the pool and in the garden while the adults enjoyed the stunning surroundings of the property. We had a wonderful experience with Monica who helped with check in, organizing dinner at the villa a few nights and tips for the area. Perfect location close to a small town with all the essentials (coffee shops, supermarkets etc). Would recommend to anyone looking to spend a week with friends or family and book Maria to cook for you! No complaints here!

Magical Time in Sicily

My family visited Naxos as a part of a milestone birthday celebration. I took my three adult children/spouses/grandchildren to see their roots. What a wonderful surprise to arrive at Villa Etna. The home was lovely, fully air-conditioned, and the yard was beautifully groomed. The kitchen was well equipped. Monica even bought a blender for us when I asked for one. I can't say enough about the gracious and loving care we received from Monica. She was the most responsive host we have ever had. Gabriel also came by to check that all was well. Maria's cooking was terrific and it is a meal we will all remember. And on top of all that, we really did see Mt. Etna from many angles of the property. I would definitely return and highly recommend this space for young and old!

Long weekend for 10 guys

We had a wonderful stay at the house. Garden is nice and outside sitting area nice and spacious. Rooms are good and beds were made up as separate units. Kitchen could use a second percolator for coffee and we had to clean the dishwasher sprayer arms as they were clogged up and didn’t clean the dishes (afterwards it worked fine). The view is spectacular and swimming pool is good. There are enough interesting sites in the area for excursions. I would go there again.

Nous avons passé une semaine très agréable dans cette jolie villa très confortable et spacieuse. La maison offre un très bon confort, ses aménagements sont de très bonnes qualités et le jardin très agréable, fleuri et agrémenté d’une vue magnifique sur l’etna. La grande piscine a été très appréciée de nos enfants. Le service journalier était très efficace tout comme les bons conseils de la property manager Monica.

Fantastic group stay

We had a fantastic group stay at the villa that comfortably accommodated for a group of 12 adults. The facilities and environment were beautiful and well enjoyed by our group. The house team and manager were very welcoming and accommodated most of our needs. We were quite disappointed to lose our security deposit due to some stains on the terracotta tiles which were the flooring for all the communal outdoor cooking and dining areas. We were not warned of the risk or advised of the caution needed when cooking and eating in these areas which led to a disappointing outcome. It would be helpful for future guests if this information was included in the check-in process. All in all, we had a marvellous stay and will remember our group holiday at the villa very fondly.

One of my best holidays ever

Beautiful location, just in front of the Etna vulcan. The resort is surrounded by vignards and fruit trees, very relaxing. A lot of care and attention to details. The rooms are spacious and clean. The best part is the assistance from the staff: friendly and professional at all times. I recommend the "granita" and pasta alla norma. Fantastic!

In een woord perfect!

Deze woning is perfect. Mooi gelegen, mooi ingericht en zeer compleet. Wij voelden ons met toen volwassen en een baby zeer verwend. Dit kwam ook door de lieve Monica en Maria. Het ontbrak ons aan niets. Het internet werkte niet meer door een blikseminslag in de buurt, maar daar kon niemand iets aan doen. Een echte aanrader!!!

Wonderful villa, wonderful hospitality!

We stayed at Villa Etna for one week at the end of August/beginning of September. We had the most wonderful time. Monica, the housekeeper, gave us such a warm welcome and was brilliant throughout. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she was very knowledgeable about the local area, beaches, places to eat and visit. The villa itself was very spacious and immaculate. We had everything we needed. The pool was perfect, very clean and a lovely temperature. The location was brilliant, close to amenities and a very short drive from the beach, but because of the setting it felt as though it was the perfect rural retreat. Our two boys, aged 7 and 8 years summed it up as "the best holiday ever!". Thank you very much. We hope to return next year. Sarah and Iain Packham

A great holiday in a lovely house!

We had a great week at Villa Etna! The house is very well divided internally, well maintained and really well equipped! The air conditioning is very efficient, as it needs to be to cope with the intense heat one can experience in Sicily! The garden is large and there is an extensive covered area where one can take refuge from the hot sun as well as dine al fresco. From there the view of Mount Etna is stunning! Although the property is very close to the village, it feels quite remote. It is very quiet! The swimming pool was a huge attraction to our children, and much fun was had there! Everything is in perfect working order in the house, except for the wi-fi which is at times problematic, the signal is at times very weak. I understand the owner will be doing something about that! The manager is very attentive and efficient and will resolve any problems that can occur with great speed, and there is a cook for an outstanding Sicilian food experience (at extra cost). The surrounding area is very beautiful, with lots to do. We found a couple of beautiful beaches (don’t miss Lido dal Pirata). It is worth making sure you have proper instructions as to the location of the property and not just follow the satnav, I got totally lost trying to find it when we first arrived!

Wonderfull stay at a little paradise

Wonderful stay at the beautiful Villa Etna with a private pool, shaded and tasteful terrace, perfumed scent of the lemon trees nearby and a magnificent view of the real Etna. We also enjoyed very much the warm hospitality of Gabriele and Monica.

Perfect accommodations for a great week in Sicily.

The villa was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. The en suite arrangement was ideal for our large group (12 adults), with inviting indoor and outdoor common spaces for meals or just hanging out and cozy bed/bath combos that were just right at other times. We had two dinners al fresco on the spacious patio, which was a real treat. The pool was another a big plus, especially when the weather got hot. A prime location as well--close enough to Taormina to enjoy the town's amenities and yet far enough way to keep the throngs at bay. I would definitely recommend this property to any large group planning a vacation in the area.

A beautiful villa with modern convenience.

This charming and beautiful villa has it all. The property is very clean and well maintained, and every corner is just beautiful and functional. The property manager provides excellent customer service and the resident cook will make you the most delicious home cook meal in Sicily. It is easy to get to the beaches and attractions by car. Overall, I had the dream vacation in Villa Etna. I can't wait to go back.

Le Case del Principe - Taormina, Sicily (Italy)

I've just come back from a fabulous holiday spent with a group of friends at Le Case del Principe - Taormina, Sicily (Italy). We stayed in Villa Etna, nestled in orange, lemon and olive groves not to mention a budding vineyard. The breathtaking view on the snow-capped volcano, the quiet and the surrounding nature did wonders for helping us to disconnect from our stressful lives and reconnect with our own rhythm. This was the perfect location for our favorite activities: hiking, swimming, walking by the sea, shopping, seeing the sights including the world famous Taormina or simply lounging by the in-house pool. I must say that I was particularly impressed by how clean and safe the place was and by the special taste of the Principe who very elegantly decorated it with touches of Sicily every now and again. We had a Sicilian grandmother on the property who prepared fantastic typical dishes while making us feel pampered. Considering that the estate is nicely removed from the mainstream, but in an area filled with many interesting activities, it was a very good idea to rent a couple of cars to get around when we wanted to. What a wonderful corner of the world!
