This is a very great Villa with convienet location to park and walk to the city center. The villa has a perfect view swimming pool and it is good for a chill drink at night. All the staff are very friendly and guide us everything during our stay. Very recommend to all other travelers.

Agréable séjour
Séjour convenable, le studio était propre et avec une belle vue même si qlqs équipements en fin de vie sont stockés juste en dessous de la fenêtre. L'infrastructure est un peu dépassé. Ca manque de rafraichissement et d'entretien. La piscine est bien mais pas assez entretenu aussi. Très bon accueil, et parfait pour les 3 nuits. Parking un peu petit pas évident d'avoir toujours de la place. Il faut un peu marcher pour aller dans le centre (rue piétonne) mais rien de bien méchant (313 marches).

Great spot between the center and beach
Good place just down the hill from the main town but still convenient to everything. Parking is also available which is a huge advantage in Taormina. The rooms are cool and modern with nice amenities. It’s not a hotel but a villa so don’t expect the standard hotel services. It was perfect for us and it’s my second stay at this hotel so we love it.

Great spot near Taormina and the beach.
The place is very cool and has a great vibe. Its a private home with some nice apartments to rent. There is no breakfast but there is a kitchen to do it yourself. It’s basically inbetween Taormina and the Isola Bella beach area which I liked. There are a good amount of stairs to get up to the main town area. I didn’t mind it but some other people might not like it. I’d stay there again for sure.

Fabulous place, beautiful view
The family that owned it were lovely, welcoming and helpful. We had an excellent stay. Location was great very close to the centre and the cable cars. It was a great walk to the beach as well. Very beautiful view and lovely pool. We had a room with a private terrace which was lovely too. An amazing to place to stay in Taormina! Would definitely come back

Just what we needed for a short stay
The apartment has a great location, less than 10 minutes walk into town. However, most of that walk will be up lots of stairs so bear in mind if you have mobility issues. This does mean that there are great views from the apartment, as it is located on a cliffside. The accommodation itself is great: everything we needed for our short stay was provided and the heating was working very well (a good addition as it was fairly cold during our visit). Everything was in working order and Roberto was very good at letting us know where to go, what to do, what to avoid and how to make the most of our stay. It was too cold to make use of the pool or other facilities but we could see that they would be lovely on a summer's day - and we are already planning to go back to Sicily when the weather is better!

The location is great, only quite a lot of stairs to get up to Taormina. Fantastic view. It would be a great spot for a summer holiday, with barbecue and Pool. Perfect location, halfway between beach and city. The room was very clean, but unfortunately the garden gate couldn't be locked and the internet wasn't working. We had to get to a cafe to raise our concerns but it still wasn't fixed.

Great base for our family holiday
Just enjoyed a week here - great views, lovely outside shared pool space and plenty of private space in our apartment/terrace. Massimmo and family and Roberto were very friendly and helpful. It isn't far to the centre or the beach but it is on the hillside - as per other reviews, lots of steps but we managed with a toddler/buggy in tow! Kitchen well equipped. Air conditioning good but quite bright if want to use at night and using both rooms. Black out blinds could also be useful. We were very pleased with our stay and would definitely recommend it.

Amazing views, nice room with large window, great bathroom, friendly owner lives on-site. Steep access to both town / shops and the beach. Faniculor would make access easier, but it was not functioning and we were not warned about it.

Great views
The staff were very friendly and welcoming at Villa Zagara Garden, giving lots of recommendations (that were definitely worth taking!) and making us feel welcome. The lounging area is great and the room is perfect for what you pay for. The views are spectacular, but the location is a little out of the way (and it is hard to find in the dark--follow the instructions you receive in the welcome email!) and you will be climbing a lot of steps to get to both the town and the beach (taxis are not cheap). Given the location, I think that they should serve breakfast (which they don't) and you have to climb the hill to get a cup of coffee (although they give you a kettle for tea in the room). Overall, decent value for Taormina standards.

Excellent view
Massimo the owner of the apartment was very friendly and helpful. The apartment is quite difficult to find but when we finally arrived we were happy with the apartment. The view is extraordinary and definitely the highlight of our stay. The apartment is close to everything Taormina has to offer but the walk into town is uphill and up a lot of steps, at night I would have been worried about walking this alone as it very dark and quiet. The apartment is spacious and well equipped. It does't include an iron but Massimo let us borrow his.
