Resort Borgo San Rocco  

On Sicily’s east coast in the heart of Savoca, a medieval village turned 4-star resort. Ten minutes from the beach at Santa Teresa and about 30 minutes from Taormina. Nearby sights include the Cathedral of Calabria, Aragonese Castle and Chiesa degli Ottimati, and film fans can visit Bar Vitelli from The Godfather.

Housed in a restored borgo, rooms are scattered around the village and open onto balconies, terraces or patios with views of Savoca, the mountains or the sea. Rooms are air-conditioned and feature LCD TVs with Sky channels, mini‑bars and simple comforts like slippers. The vibe pairs rustic stonework with Sicilian touches.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool or join the on-site diving club. There’s a massage room, solarium, a lively bar and a top Sicilian restaurant on site. The resort also offers parking, a tour desk and transfer service, plus concierge help to book local excursions — wake up to sea‑breeze mornings and hilltop views.

Free Wi‑Fi across the property keeps you connected. The hotel also provides parking and transfer services for added convenience.

The on-site restaurant focuses on Sicilian flavors using fresh local ingredients and serves regional wines. Breakfast is served buffet style each morning, with reservations made on the same day, and the bar is perfect for evening drinks.
