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.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour à Milazzo. le confort de l’appartement avec terrasse a largement compensé le temps maussade à l’arrivée.

+ Alles gut und Franco ist ein sehr guter Gastgeber + Er ist immer erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit + Franco zeigt einem die Gegend. - Der Kühlschrank ist ein bisschen Laut. - Es gibt keine richtige Küche.

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.

Our stay in Sicily was truly unforgettable! The house had a beautiful character, filled with charming details that made it feel like a home. The garden was a stunning oasis, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the warm Sicilian evenings. Our host, Carlo, was exceptional—always available to answer questions and provide recommendations. The highlight of our trip was the incredible five-course Sicilian dinner Carlo organized for us, showcasing the region's delicious cuisine. Each dish was a delight! The location itself is a must-visit, with breathtaking views and rich culture all around. We felt immersed in the beauty and warmth of Sicily. Highly recommend this lovely spot for anyone looking to experience the best of the island!

Our time at Mario’s house was amazing. The pictures do not do justice to the views from all parts of the home. The property is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. It is huge and beautiful. The home is very safe and is surrounded by a gate, including the driveway. The surrounding area is quaint and very walkable. There are cafes and small shops. We were a party of 8, with two families of 4. There was plenty of space for us all to stay comfortably. Mario and his family were kind and gracious hosts. We would absolutely recommend staying here and my children have asked how soon we can return :)

Un padrone di casa gentile e premuroso. Sempre presente e disponibile. La casa in un posto strategico e centrale. La disposizione e l'organizzazione della casa sono migliori di quanto mostrato sul sito (consiglierei ad Alberto di fare foto diverse). Siamo stati meravigliosamente bene. Grazie

Precioso lugar en el que descansar y reponer fuerzas. Anfitriones que nos han hecho sentir como en casa. El desayuno es espectacular y vale mucho la pena probar toda la bollería y mermeladas caseras. Cafés riquísimos y naranjas recién cogidas del árbol. Definitivamente uno de esos lugares a recomendar.

Breathtaking view, calm countryside and yet right in the middle of all the places you’d want to see in north-east Sicily! 🤍 (e.g. 30 mins by car to Taormina, 30 mins to Alcantara, 50 mins to Etna-South) We got to spend five nights in Andreas lovely lava stone cottage and wished we had booked more :) The cottage is quite up the hill but definitely worth the ride. We had everything we need and more. Andrea is a wonderful host and provided us with great insider tips about the area. 10/10 would book again (but definitely prepare better against mosquitoes)

Soggiorno fantastico. Io e la mia comitiva di amici abbiamo adorato l’alloggio proposto da Mike e Nerissa. La casetta ha tutti i comfort necessari per soggiorni a breve e lungo termine. I punti forti della struttura sono sicuramente la vista mare, il giardino esterno per pasti all’aperto e la vicinanza alla spiaggia libera. Stra-consigliato!!!

Nous avons séjourné pendant une semaine à 6 personnes dans la partie a l étage de la maison. L appartement ne correspond pas tout à fait aux photos puisqu une chambre a été ajoutée dans le salon … mais la pièce de vie reste très spacieuse. Il n y avait pas de volets ( et pas de rideaux opaques dans le salon) ce qui est dommage quand on dort dans le salon et que le soleil se lève a 6h … et surtout pour couper du soleil quand il y fait très chaud . La cuisine n était pas suffisamment équipée plutôt rustique Heureusement que Sonia s est montrée réactive à nos demandes. La Clim était indispensable mais n est pas assez performante pour rafraîchir les chambres. Je dirais que l appartement vaut le coup pour la terrasse et la vue sur Taormina et la tranquillité s il y a du monde au rdc ( cet appartement doit être plus adapté pour un long séjour) .les extérieurs sont vraiment magiques et très appréciables en période de canicule ils sont d ailleurs très bien entretenus .

Zona molto tranquilla, a due minuti dal paese, proprietaria molto disponibile è viene in contro a qualsiasi cosa si ha bisogno lo consiglio, noi lo abbiamo affittato a ridosso dell’ epifania e trovare le calze per i bambini è stato una vera sorpresa, lo consiglio vivamente ps: area barbecue e giochi bimbi veramente una chicca

Un logement tranquille et très agréable à deux pas de Taormina. Nous avons été très bien accueillis et nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Merci !

beautifyl place up on the slopes of the etna, vieuw of the whole Island. nice garden with fresh fruits and a copy house with everything tou need. the owners were very flexible and helpfunctie with everithing and had great recommendarions about the Area. thnx for having us !

Très bon séjour. La maison est fonctionnelle, grande, et très agréable à vivre et à partager en famille. Belle vue mer. Piscine, barbecue. Grandes terrasses. Toutes les chambres équipées de salles de bain. C'était propre. On recommande !

What a beautiful apartment, perfect for our group of 6. Not only was each room decorated perfectly, it was well stocked. Thank you so much for a beautiful stay.

We loved the house of Jaco, it had an amazing view and is super quiet. We made an phenomenal BBQ outside on the grill. We will come back for sure. Felt like home.

Melania et sa famille ont été très réactifs par message et très accueillants ! C’est un endroit très paisible, un havre de paix en plein cœur de la nature, les photos ne seront jamais à la hauteur de la beauté du lieu ! Une vraie pépite. Je recommande vivement ! Merci pour votre accueil

We had difficulty finding the location because Taormina is not an easy city to navigate in a car. Sabina was helpful in helping us locate the garage.

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!

Had a wonderful time at Francesco's place! He and Giovanna were very welcoming and generous hosts, sharing local recommendations and even some home made wine! The pool was the perfect spot to cool off after a hot day and the house was well placed for excursions to Etna. Thank you both for a delightful stay !

Amazing Stay in a perfect location with perfect views. Hard to find a stay in Taormina with sea views, central location and convenient parking. This apartment had it all. Highly recommend this stay for anyone visiting Taormina. The communication was on point, apartment was clean, well equipped and large enough for 4 people. Would stay here again.
