Family-friendly vacation rentals in Gioia Tauro

Sergio’s villa was the most beautiful place that we have ever stayed. Olive and citrus trees right in the yard and pristine views of Mount Etna. Restaurants, coffee, shops, and pharmacies were all within short walks from the home. I would stay again in a heartbeat, if Sergio would have us.

Perfect location right near the entrance for the old town

Wow! This was one of the best outfitted, beautiful properties we have ever stayed at. Dortea was a fantastic, responsive and helpful host. We were just in Amalphi and this location rivals the Italian riviera with wonderful views and Taromina just on it's doorstep. It was easy to walk to Isolabella and the bus and cable car were convenient for travelling to Taromina. The hot tub this time of year was wonderful. Thank you Dortea for the wonderful orientation that allowed us to make the most of our time in this beautiful part of Sicily.

Great location! The host is so accommodating, offers great communication and the place is perfect. Thank you Stefano,we will be back in a year.

We stayed for a week during New Year. With a two families, in total 9 people. Great place and great host. The surroundings and views are beautiful. The property has everything including a lot of fruit trees. You are close to the beach and there is a nice family style bakery and restaurant right around the corner. The house is next to a highway. You do notice at first, but after a couple of hours it’s not a big deal. There was a problem with the electricity but Mauricio handled it well and quickly. He is a great host.

+ Everything is good and Franco is a very good host + He is always available and very helpful + Franco shows you the area. - The fridge is a bit noisy. - There is no real kitchen.

The check-in was flexible and easily arranged. The villa was beautiful and very comfortable for two couples, located outside of the city which makes it easy to unplug and relax. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Great stay in Parghelia in August. Two-room apartment in the very nice villa. View from the window of the beautiful room...directly on the sea and on Tropea. Even more evocative to enjoy the wonderful sunsets directly on the deck chairs located in the villa's park. Everything is clean and in order of our arrival with the host who is always present and available. Pro active and responsive Mrs. Ivana did not miss anything. A plus for your friendliness. Well-equipped and functional apartment. Wonderful natural ventilation of the same. Air conditioning not used. Great for beach vacation with family. Location close to Michelino and Vardano beaches,…about 10 minutes walk. Parghelia's country even closer. Trope 5 minutes by car. Strategic location really. Congratulations. Great stay.

Excellent stay at Andrea's, the apartment matches the photos, very clean and excellent location I would recommend it without hesitating Thanks to Andrea

Antonella is super nice and a great host. Her place is tiny but we figure out how to accommodate everything, put the luggages underneath the table and get before the clothing for the day, there’s no space for medium luggage. Is exactly like she describes. It’s a sofa bed and I could not deal with, so we put the mattress on the floor and slept super well 🤗 she left cookies and wine, so nice of her. Linen and towels high quality! The location is premium!

A beautiful place to rest and recharge. Hosts who have made us feel like home. Breakfast is spectacular and all the pastries and homemade jams are well worth trying. Delicious coffees and oranges freshly picked from the tree. Definitely one of those places to recommend.

Thanks to Valentina for her warm welcome, availability and recommendations. The apartment is very nice, tastefully decorated. It is located close to the sea. The large terrace is lovely. I would recommned this property

A charming and beautifully located spot in the heart of Taormina. The space was clean, well-maintained, and perfectly situated for exploring the area. The host was attentive and maintained excellent communication throughout our stay.

Great Family Family Family Living My group of friends and I loved the place offered by Mike and Nerissa. The cottage has all the necessary comforts for short and long-term stays. The highlights of the property are definitely the sea view, the outdoor garden for outdoor meals, and the proximity to the free beach. Highly recommended!!!

Great location and few minutes walking to the town center with free parking

Host was very helpful and kind. The place was very well equipped and beautiful. Specially we liked the outdoor area. Luckily we had a very nice weather during our stay so we could enjoy the sun in the outdoor space. Location was in a quiet area, surrounded by tangerine-orange fields and local farmers. Sea was in a walking distance, nice path to there. Definitely worth visiting!

The host is an old man who is going to be 90 years old.The old gentleman will be very enthusiastic about the condition of the place, where to rent a car, and which spots to go, where to eat local food?Although he is not very fluent in English, he will be very patient with the conversation with you through Google Translate.Although the location of the accommodation is not very convenient, it is very convenient to rent a small car as a mobile transportation, Taiwanese people are recommended to come to this place to stay.

This was a beautiful place to stay in a beautiful city. The unit was set back from the road and was so picturesque. There was so much space for our two families. We could not have asked for a better place!

Simply fantastic. This is one of those rare Airbnbs where you actually feel like a friend has let you stay in their house. I cannot recommend it enough.

Helga's place was very conveniently located to the historic center of Taormina - less than a 5-minute walk to the Porta Messina. There are some stairs and grade changes to get there, but it's not a big deal unless you are mobility impaired. The apartment is located in a condominium building with a fantasic view north up the coast. There's a spacious patio (which we would've used a lot had it not rained every day!!) to take advantage of the view. The communal infinity pool also looked amazing but, again, the weather didn't cooperate. In the summer, it must be great! The place is well-furnished and the rooms were spacious. The bathroom was well-equipped (though a few more bath/shower amenities would have been nice) and also spacious. On-site garage parking meant we didn't have to deal with any parking hassles and there was an elevator to get us and our luggage up to the apartment. Directions were very clear and Helga sent her housekeeper to meet us personally. Highly recommended

If you’re looking for a safe, secure, and spacious accommodation that feels isolated but is right next to everything you need to see in Taormina then you found the spot. The apartment has a beautiful terrace overlooking the Sicilian coastline and neighboring Calabria. Beautiful pool, gardens, and easy access to the Main Street of Taormina. The place was stocked with supplies, plenty of blankets, pillows, towels, some food, and a delicious bottle of wine as a welcome gift. Highly recommend for a first time visit to the area!

Guilia's place is spectacular! It's better than the photos with gorgeous views of the sea, mountains, city and even Calabria in the distance. The grounds are immaculate with a huge private terrace for meals and drinks and a massive pool that feels like your own private resort. Giulia's family lives in the other units and were always friendly and helpful but not intrusive in the least. Even Papaya the dog knew when to leave us to ourselves lol! The interior is pristine and spacious. As many have pointed out the town center is about a 10-15 minute walk away. So you are very close to all the restaurants and shops but away from the tourist hordes. Taormina is hilly but most of the walk is relatively flat. Traffic is not a worry, we did not encounter much of it on our walks. Also, Italian drivers, although speedy, are careful and well aware of pedestrians. Giulia is a fantastic host, always quick to provide recommendations and respond to our questions. Wish we could have stayed forever!

The location of the apartment and the entire complex was perfect! We had Isola Bella and the beautiful beach section right outside the door. To get to the village itself, you only had to go up the steps. The operators of the facility were very friendly and helpful. There was nothing missing in the apartment. We would mist definitely visit again.

A great spot for a family, great views over the coast and can see the mainland on a clear day. Higher up in the town so easy to get around and see the sights without a climb or lift. Mornings and evenings stunning and easy to good restaurants and shops for bits that are needed. All in all… just what we hoped for and needed. Comfy beds, aircon and chairs. Very good spot.
