Casa Lucia  

Tucked in Taormina within easy walking distance of the city center, Casa Lucia sits about a 10-minute stroll from the Taormina Roman Odeon and Porta Messina. Beaches are close by too — roughly 1.8 miles to Mazzeo and about 2.2 km to Spisone and Mazzarò — with Mount Etna around 28.6 km away.

A tiny, boutique hideaway with just three guestrooms and a private entrance, Casa Lucia serves city views and a friendly, lived-in vibe. Staff speak English, Spanish, Italian and French, so checking in feels easy and local.

Keep it simple: complimentary wired and wireless internet, a computer station, laundry facilities, on-site parking, and even karaoke for a playful night in. Expect casual comforts and practical perks close to Taormina’s sights.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet plus a public computer station make short work of emails and quick tasks while you stay.
