We had a wonderful 12 days in residence 1, a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment with kitchenette. The view from the balcony was absolutely fabulous! It was a joy to sit out and look over Isola Bella beach! The grounds are beautiful and lush with well maintained gardens and the pool area was perfect! There were plenty of umbrellas and chairs and it was never too busy so was quiet and relaxing, also a gorgeous seaview. The walk down the Isola Bella beach or up to Taormina was definitely a challenge with more than 300 stairs each way but we didnt mind as it allowed us to walk off all the pizza, pasta and gelato we consumed! Overall I highly recommend Terra Rossa as a great place to stay as a base to explore stunning Taormina.

I couldn’t falter my stay at Terra Rossa. A small residence set among beautiful gardens with great views. We had a studio overlooking the Isola Bella Island. The patio is perfect sized for an evening unwind. The studio provides everything you need and is cool. The pool area is never too busy. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Beautifully maintained property and gardens. We stayed in a panoramic apartment which had the best of views from each window and balcony. A haven away from the main area of Taormina which was busy during our stay.

This property is ideal for a quiet break. the gardens and views are really remarkable. The area is so quiet. Its probably not so great with children as there are 200 steps to town or same to beach otherwise its taxis which cost a bit. Breakfast was great for the view, pehaps a little pricey for the content. Beers and wines from reception were great value. The nearby beaches are very crowded.The town of Catania is beautiful, less busy at night than daytime. The theatro is splendid. Would come again.

We had a fantastic stay at Residence Terra Rossa. The views were breathtaking. Our room and the grounds were spotless clean. We traveled with our kids (ages 6, 8, 10) and we are an active family so we had no issues with the vast number of stairs. In fact we really enjoyed the walks home to burn off all the pasta and gelato. We enjoyed the breakfast each day (it was pricey for our family of 5 at 15 Euros per person, but we did it anyways for convenience and because we needed fuel and coffee before trekking up the stairs). We could have gotten groceries for room as it had a full kitchen but we decided not to. We swam in the pool every day and loved it. The air conditioning was super strong and our room was perfectly cold. Our bed layout was perfect for 3 kids with each having their own single bed. We had a rental car and opted to park up the street in the free lot which was great (no issues with the free lot) and there is a little snack stand there where we get coffee and cocktails to take on our walks. If I had to list cons they would be as follows: 1) the after hours check-in instructions were provided after we already took off on our flight which made me a bit nervous - I subsequently had to provide visa details during our layover - I was already using an e-Sim and I had to roam to get a text to approve payment - not the end of the world but I would have liked to have this sorted before leaving my house. 2)the drive out of Toarmina takes 20 minutes on narrow roads

Nice place to be based. Views to die for. Suites are a little dated, but overall cannot be faulted. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The Residence Terra Rossa is halfway between The town of Taormina and the beach at Isola Bella which meant very steep walking to either of the places.

Steep hill but AMAZING

Genuinely amazing property. Beautiful views everywhere! Amazing owner with communication. Only thing to note is that it’s important to be able to walk up steep hills if staying here. More than worth it.

We had room 16 (panoramic room) and the views were amazing. This property is mid way between the beach & town, an excellent location. The pool is fantastic, again with a great views of the bay. The only downside was the cable cars not working !! Lots of steps but kept us fit.

Located on the hill below Taormina, 5 minutes to the beach. Great views of the ocean. Beautiful gardens and nice pool area, although more umbrellas are needed. Outdated/basic apartments and uncomfortable bed/pillows.

Wonderful views - no service

Check in closes at 20.00 Instructions for our late check in were shared late. Getting on the plane without knowing how to access the room the same night didn't feel great. The location of the hotel comes with absolutely amazing views! We loved it. However, the climb from the beach/up to Taormina via stairs is, as all reviews say, not to be under estimated. Good cardio but forget about high heels. Driving to the hotel is by a steep and narrow road. Made me wish I had a religion. Rooms are cute and cosy. Pool area and garden so beautiful. Breakfast is EUR 15 per person - very expensive vs quality of offer. We stayed 8 nights and room was cleaned once. Asked for a change of towels on day 4 (...) as there is a sign in the room stating that it's possible. Answer from reception was that "change happens according to schedule". So you can ask for it - but the schedule will hold. There is no replenishment of toilet paper in 8 days. You can ask for it. Guests are asked to sort and throw the garbage from room. It's all DIY for guests. In short: location heavenly - service not what you would expect in a hotel

We spent an idyllic week at Residence Terra Rossa in April. We found the landscaped gardens inside the gated property to be delightfully peaceful with beautiful views of the coast below. The manager was extremely helpful with directions and information ahead of our arrival, making our late evening arrival and self check-in very smooth and stress free. The pool was lovely, if a little chilly at this time of year. Breakfasts were excellent, and such a beautiful vista to sit and eat on their terrace. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful, and language was never a problem for us (being only English speakers). We enjoyed walking down the steps to the beach, and up the steps to the old town. A lot of steps as Taormina is such a steep hillside town, but it meant we did not need to drive around or worry about parking. We were a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) and would definitely stay here again.

Stunning views of the Middeterenean Sea

We stayed 10 nights in early June and were very happy with out visit. We rented a studio that overlooked the sea and spent every morning and night just enjoying the views from our patio. The rooms were comfortable and clean with a basic kitchenette area to cook some simple meals. The kitchen was not very inspiring as a dining area so we spent all meals on the patio that had a really nice table set. The pool area offers great views of the coastline and the pool is inviting for both children and grown ups. The hotel is located at about 100 meters above sea level and sits right between the Isola Bella beach and Taormina town. Both can be reached by stairs just outside the hotel. Closest restaurants are by the beach but you will find better restaurants in town. Walking to Taormina town was perhaps a bit exhausting since we had a stroller and had to climb quite steep streets to get into town instead of using the stairs. Taormina only have one small grocery store in town so I recommend shopping groceries ahead if you come by car. The hotel offers beer and wine at a decent price. All in all, a really nice visit with stunning views. Good value for money but be prepared to walk a lot of stairs.

On arrival the gentleman on reception was engaging, friendly and welcoming. This was a really nice simple start considering a flight diversion from Catania to Palmero courtesy of Etna and longer than planned hot travel to a relatively unknown accommodation setting. The room was as per pictures and was clean, spacious and well thought out with good cooking facilities and air con. In addition it had UPVC doors and windows behind the slated traditional doors which meant it was secure and that the Sicilian heat was kept out of the living space. It also ensured there were no mosquitoes or bugs. The balcony with a sea view was picturesque framed by wisteria. The residence itself was very clean and aesthetically pleasing. The pool was kept clean and the attention to detail by staff was impressive as every evening communal areas were cleaned to a high standard. The staff were friendly and on hand and helpful with any query. The pool area was spacious and there was a variety of seating and sun lounging options with shade available. The views from the pool were of Isola Bella. Terra Rosa was located approximately halfway between the beach and town. To explore Taormina from beach to town involves climbing 599 steps (my daughter counted) or you can take a taxi or cable car. All in all the residence was beautiful and low key, perfectly suited to families/couples or persons wanting to explore Taormina. Highly recommended.
