A Taormina family run hotel in a splendid position
Among the sweet scents and colours of Sicily, a warm hospitality in a dream setting. A splendid villa immersed in greenery, just a few steps away from the sea and the old town centre of Taormina. The Villa Caterina Hotel stands in the splendid inlet of the Bay of Mazzarò, just 2 minutes from the deep blue and crystal-clear sea, which can be reached on foot along a picturesque narrow street. 100 metres away from the hotel, you can find the cable-car linking Mazzarò to the old town center of Taormina. The Pearl of the Ionian Sea, Taormina is home to splendid Arab-Norman buildings and a spectacular Greek Theatre.
The rooms of Villa Caterina are all of a typical Sicilian charm, with beds in wrought iron, Caltagirone ceramics and wide windows overlooking the splendid Mediterranean garden which surrounds the hotel. The 11 twin or triple rooms come with a comfortable private bathroom with shower and hair-dryer, air conditioning, a telephone with a direct external line, a television receiving satellite channels and a safety deposit box. Breakfast can be taken in the bedroom for no extra cost.
Villa Caterina is an intimate and welcoming place, where even the tiniest detail suggests the warmth and character of Sicily. The family-run business, its spectacular location on the Bay of Mazzarò and the passion for hospitality make this Taormina Hotel the ideal solution for spending the holidays.
During the first half of the 1900s, the Cacopardo family opened the doors of their own house to coming travellers, transforming Villa Caterina into a welcoming inn. The beauty of the place and the warmth of the house fascinated guests from the very moment they arrived, so much so that many guests continue to return year after year. During the sixties, the Villa became a true hotel in its own right, managed as before by the Cacopardo family. As much today as yesterday, Villa Caterina is characterized by an unmistakable style, born of the harmony between cordiality, kindness and true Sicilian hospitality.
The interior of the house reflects the family's passion for this wonderful land: chandeliers and bed headboards in wrought iron, products in Caltagirone ceramics, solid wood furniture in Arte Povera style, Rattan sofas and tables in the sun-drenched veranda.
Villa Caterina is surrounded by a splendid Mediterranean garden with lemon trees, olive trees, bougainvillea and geranium shrubs. On the upper part of the villa you will find a sun terrace with deckchairs and small tables. During the summer, guests can enjoy breakfast on the terrace, or even in the garden, sheltered in the shade of the olive trees and amidst the scent of the roses and lemons. Breakfast is served as a sweet and savory buffet, with home-made cakes and jams, a wide choice of different teas, and savory specialties such as ham, cheese and omelet's.
Villa Caterina also has a spacious private parking area, located right under the hotel and accessible via a staircase completely covered in Caltagirone ceramics.
