Don Vittorio Country Village  

In the fragrant Sicilian countryside just outside Taormina, Don Vittorio Country Village sits amid Mediterranean scrub. It’s a quiet base to explore Giardini Naxos Beach (about 3.5–4.7 km) and is roughly 10–12 km from Taormina’s center. Nearby highlights include Isola Bella, Corso Umberto and the Alcantara Gorges.

A recently refreshed country-complex of 20–22 two- and three-room apartments spread across single-story buildings along a tree-lined avenue. Apartments feature full kitchens (full-sized fridge/freezer and oven/stovetop), private furnished patios and 32-inch flat-screen TVs. Surrounded by greenery, it feels like a chilled country retreat ideal for sunset cocktails by the pool. The property is closed from November 1 to March 31.
