Our group of 16 people had a wonderful time at Villa Anemone. The location is central to Catania and Taormina and has plenty of parking and security. There is a Deco supermarket only a few minutes drive away, which is convenient for getting food and necessities. The villa apartments are beautiful and perfectly clean. Each apartment had all the linens and dishes/pots needed for a week's stay. The property itself is very lovely with extensive grounds. The pool is large and the private swimming area has access to crystal clean sea. The landscaping is incredible. The host family is very welcoming and generous, and addressed every concern we had. Mr. Russo is a great resource and helped to solve whatever problem came up. We couldn't have asked for more from our hosts - they were a lot of fun to meet and spend some time with. We highly recommend this beautiful villa that is run by such a wonderful host family!

Pool, property and views were beautiful! The various apartments we stayed in were clean and looked after. The caretaker was very helpful and took care of place well, even if we communicated only through google translate. The ocean was swimable but rocky. The patios had good shade or umbrellas. We stayed in multiple units and they were all well equipped and AC units worked in all. Absolutely need a car to stay here as far from grocery stores and restaurants. Gelato place in harbour of Stazzo had good gelato. Bring bug spray if you’re sensitive to mosquitoes as there are some after dark. (Il Tocco restaurant in Aceriale was a great place to eat with gorgeous views.)
