Our party of 4 started a 3-week Sicilian vacation in Taormina. Paula and Furio arranged our airport transportation, met us at the Bada Vecchia apartment, and helped us get settled. Paula was especially helpful in making restaurant reservations, booking a boat excursion as well as other transportation requirements. She must have given us 3 or more hours of her time during our stay. She even helped us with bookings for the next leg of our journey in Ortigia. We were thrilled with all their recommendations and with their warmth and hospitality.

Furio and Paola are the very best hosts! The house is situated in easy walking distance to the Corso Umberto and restaurants. The Hotel Continental across the street has rooftop breakfast and bar. Paola helped make dinner reservations and gave so many good suggestions. I highly recommend staying with these hosts! Five Stars.

Badia Vecchia was everything we wanted and expected...even more! Furio & Paola were fabulous hosts - welcoming and orienting us, helping with (too much / too heavy) luggage, being sure we had plenty of water and coffee, providing restaurant recommendations, both in Taormina and our other planned Sicily stops. The apartment was immaculate, well equipped and nearly perfectly located. We're happy to recommend to future Taormina travelers. Thank you Furio and Paola!!Nora & FredMay 2026

We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Location provided an easy walk to the center for everything you might need. The daily view from the VRBO of Mt Etna and the Mediterranean was beautiful. Our hosts, Paola and Furio were wonderful. They made our time in Taormina and many other east coast cities and towns, priceless!

Firstly Paola and Furio were amazing hosts. So kind, hospitable and helpful and very responsive if you ever need anything. The apartment itself was located in an amazing spot, everything is on your doorstep (after stepping down some steep steps). The views from both rooms are exceptional of both the sea and Mount Etna. The kitchen is well equipped (no dishwasher). Everything was very clean and we felt very safe there. Accessibility point: lots of steps to get into the property which is very common all over the town). An amazing stay all round.

Furio and his wife were such great hosts, arranging parking for us and giving us loads of recommendations in Taormina. The flat itself is perfect and you can walk into the busy part of town, or you can stay over on the edge and actually interact with locals.

This stay was even more than we could have hoped for. The hosts were excellent communicators, both before our stay and during. They helped us coordinate parking (think valet service - and they were quick!). They met us upon arrival to walk us through the apartment, provide restaurant recommendations, and even made restaurant/attraction calls on our behalf. They really went over and beyond! The apartment is super comfortable; they even provided us with water and espresso pods. The location was a short walk to restaurants and shops, but in a quiet neighborhood. This is a WOW stay.
