A perfect location to explore Taormina, amazing views from the balconies and terrace. Ann England was informative, helpful and friendly. Nothing negative to say at all! Loved it!

This spacious, nicely maintained flat is in the absolute perfect location for exploring Taormina. The rooftop terrace is huge and provides gorgeous views of the sea. We were just steps away from the main thoroughfare with restaurants and shops, but because it is tucked away, it was quiet and peaceful. Ann was fabulous at check in. She was very flexible with our schedule and provided helpful tips. We had an air conditioning issue with one of the bedrooms that she had fixed immediately - and it was on a Sunday! We did not cook, but the kitchen seemed well equipped and having a washing machine was very convenient. I would highly recommend this property!

The property is well described in the advertisement. It is located in old Taormina on the Main Street close to restaurants, bars and grocery store. The police station and post office are close by. It is close to the Catania gate, a short walk from the apartment. Old Taormina is buzzing with pedestrian day an night with residents and tourists shopping or just walking . The apartment is spacious with al large living room, a suitable kitchen, 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms. Several windows allows views of the ocean, Mount Etna and the street. A rooftop patio and covered dining area allows to look at the sea and Etna. The view is spectacular. Ann checked us in. She is English and has lived in Taormina for 40 years. She introduced us to key features on the city and was extremely easy to reach. We enjoyed 10 days at the apartment and would recommend for short or long stays

We stayed at this apartment for 9 nights in mid-April. I struggled to choose a star rating because this apartment has so many positives, but the one negative is a very big negative. First, the positives. As other reviewers have mentioned, the location is ideal, just steps from the main pedestrian street Corso Umberto. The grocery store is within easy walking distance. The apartment itself is spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the roof deck and views are spectacular. The wifi was very reliable and the kitchen was functional and well stocked. The representative who greeted us, Ann England, was prompt, pleasant, efficient, and responsive. The one major negative is the noise that comes from the outdoor seating of the bars/restaurants that are located directly below the bedroom windows. Before booking I had read the reviews that mentioned some restaurant noise, but I didn’t fully comprehend how loud this noise would be and how late into the night it would continue. Even with the windows and shutters closed, it sounded like the people were right in the room with us—loud laughter, conversation, singing, and amplified guitar music. The noise continued until 4:00 or 5:00 am. We tried sleeping with ear plugs, which did not help all that much. We are a mature couple and were traveling with an elderly couple, so we were back in the apartment fairly early each night. This may not be as much of an issue for those who tend to stay out late into the night. If you are of the “if you can’t beat them, join them” variety, then this apartment is ideal. Otherwise, bring as much noise cancelling technology as possible. So, 5 stars for the apartment itself, but can only give it a 3 overall because of the sleepless nights due to the noise.

360 degree patio with Mt Etna. Highly recommend.

Cant say enough about the property manager, the apartment and the location. It was fantastic! Traveling with 4 other adults, the apartment was more than enough room. The roof top terrace was huge. We spent most of our time there. Look at the photos. Beautiful!

This place was lovely. I really enjoyed its proximity to the main road (Corso Umberto) and parking (Porta Catania). Anne was very helpful getting us checked in and helping get our bearings. Kitchen was also well equipped. The terrace has enrapturing views of the surrounding areas. Great place to watch Mt. Etna. A great place in either summer or winter, though you'll probably use the terrace more in summer. My only thought would be that if you're easily chilled to pay for the common room area heating. The bedrooms have AC/Heat Pump units which are easy to use and work well, but the common areas do not. Overall, we had a great time and highly recommend.

The location and terrace were amazing. The apartment a combination of the apartment and terrace above, very large and well laid out. The apartment is composed of 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, one attached to the master bedroom, a little dated but they were updating that bathroom the weekend we were leaving. Everything is within walking distance and the hostess was very informative and helpfully organizing trips and winery suggestions. Our stay in Taormina was only enhanced by the wonderful location of the apartment, the spectacular views and the helpful assistance we received from the owner and hostess. Thank you Larry Comer

Wow! We just loved this apartment in Taormina! First, it is beautiful. Casa San Domenico has high ceilings, so much natural light, very nice furniture, wonderful art, and the most breathtaking views from each window. The rooftop terrace is amazing with views of the Mediterranean Sea, the Ancient Greek Theater, and Mt. Etna! 360 degree views!! The location is prime as well as other reviewers have stated. You are steps away from everything. We stayed one week here. The only issue we had was blowing a circuit when we tried to use the washing machine and run the AC units at the same time. But that was easy to remedy and get around. We spent time hiking the north side of Mt. Etna, went on a boat excursion, visited Siracusa and Ortigia, hiked down from Castelmora, and lounged at a lido. So many wonderful restaurants and the shopping was great! We miss Taormina and this beautiful apartment!!

We spent 5 nights in Taormina at Casa San Domenico and would gladly have stayed longer. The apartment is just steps away from the Corso Umberto where all the shops and restaurants are located. It is nicely and comfortably furnished- air conditioning is sufficient to keep the bedrooms cool. The views are amazing- we enjoyed the roof top deck, as well as the balcony overlooking the nearby restaurants. Everything you need is in close proximity. Ann was very helpful with suggestions for restaurants and taxis. Overall, an excellent stay in a charming and delightful town!

My family and I had a wonderful stay in Casa San Domenico. It is a beautiful apartment with plenty of room (there were 5 of us) and the sun terrace on the roof was a very welcome feature with magnificent views. We were welcomed warmly by Ann who was very helpful and knew everything about the area. Taormina is stunning and this apartment is in a brilliant location just off the main pedestrianised street that runs through the centre of the town. It's within easy reach of everything - breakfast can be 30 secs away, all the shops are on your doorstep, loads of good restaurants too, the beach is a short walk and a cable-car ride away and there is even a 2-Michelin Star restaurant just 2 mins walk down the hill (The Principe Cerami in the San Domenico Palace Hotel). If you are in to fantastic food (and don't mind paying €150 or so per head) this is an amazing night out. One negative - it would have been nice if the piano was in tune (we did have a couple of players in our group) although the people downstairs might not have agreed ; - ) All in all we loved the apartment and we loved Taormina.

This is a well furnished, spacious, and well-located apartment with an enormous rooftop patio with fabulous views. Only a few steps from the Duomo, it is close to the main street, Corso Umberto. I can't imagine there being a better place to be, and the Manager, Ann, is a pleasure to deal with. No negatives whatsoever!! If you need three bedrooms, 2 baths, this is the place to stay!

Loved the rental! Great location and plenty of space! The washer was a pain but worked so we were happy. Mrs Ann was rather rude when we arrived as we were stuck in traffic, could have been more welcoming considering it is her job to hand over the keys.

Third time in Taormina and first at San Domenico. Arrived very late to get keys but Mrs England met us happily. Six adults (3 couples) in 3 bedrooms. Not only comfortable but the sunrise in each room was fantastic. Every morning I would wake up before sunrise, up the stairs to terrace and be awed by the great 360 degree views of the castle, duomos, Greek theater, Mt. Etna, and the sun coming up on the sea. So close to west end of Corso Umberto so we had easy access to our car, the supermercado, and steps straight up to cafe for crema croissants, espresso, and fresh squeezed orange juice. We stayed during Christmas holidays so we enjoyed again the Christmas Eve tradition of the “Lighting of the logs” in the square all within steps of us. Living room and kitchen also have spectacular views so open up all the doors and windows when you can. Whether we bought breakfast or dinner, we made the terrace upstairs our special place to eat. Many restaurants are still open on Christmas Eve and we decided to make our own Italian dinner on Christmas Day. Third time is the charm as they say and yes we will be back again someday and will definitely stay here. Thanks for a great holiday and “ciaio”!

What a joy to walk out of our gated courtyard directly onto a small pedestrian street. We walked 15 steps to a coffee/pastry or the same distance in the opposite direction to a restaurant. Just off the Corso Umberto, we enjoyed easy access to all restaurants, grocery stores and shops.The kitchen was well set up. We hired a chef for a private cooking class which made for a fun evening. We were disappointed the piano was not functional as one of our party is a fine pianist and we were hoping to make music. The upstairs terrace has a fantastic view. However, we reported the irrigation system didn't appear to be working and several of the plants were in distress. All in all a great rental for four people over a week's stay.

We rented both top floor apartments at the end of Aug / beginning of Sep. The +++ of this apartment are many including the simply fabulous rooftop and views. The aprtment is nicely located and comfortable for our group of six friends. BAD NEWS: it can be very noisy at night on the side that faces the clubs and bars 3 and4 stories below, especially on weekends. If you are sensitive to noise, look elesewhere. If you can shut the doors and turn on the bedroom AC, then you are in luck. This place is very nice and quite affordable too.

The property was centrally located and offered plenty of room and conveniences within the apartment. Large sundeck on the top deck up a small flight of stairs that is very private, complete with furniture for whatever usage. The main level is spacious and well maintained with comfortable beds. We utilized the washing machine, which challenged us at times (door is a bit funky to open but be patient and it will open). The apartment is spotless and very comfortable. A short walk from the parking garage where we met our management advisor Mrs. England (a true GEM). She helped us to the apartment with our luggage, it was seamless. She provided us with knowledge of apartment area,and restaurants. She was also easy to contact, responded quickly and solved any minor issues asap. Ton of material at the apartment for your visit to read. Forget your Sicily guide books, save the weight in your luggage. Wi-Fi was perfect, one of best connections in Europe with no interruptions. Tv worked well, only in Italian, but who's watching tv anyway! Soil go back in a heartbeat and stay here. You will so ENJOY,

Check in and check out support was great. Appartment is very nice, well located. The only issues we had were the coffee machine did not function and the kettle was not usable. I would have expected these basic items to be functional given the prices paid. Also the Patio area on the terrace was beautiful but needs a basic cleaning.
