Individual ratings for The Ashbee
Situated in a manicured garden estate with beautiful panoramic view of the sea, a two-minute walk from Piazza Vittorio Emanuele, and the pedestrian zone of Taormina.
An accomplished blend of Mediterranean mansion and English parlour: wood-panelled walls, large chandeliers, heavy curtains, choice antiques, and an impressive collection of silver in display case. Very British indeed.
Lavish garden with panoramic pool and secluded corners, pool bar, restaurant, and rooftop patio with bar.
Breakfast terrace on the rooftop patio, Sicilian and Mediterranean dishes served in the restaurant "St George" and on the seaview patio.
25 as-new rooms and suites are spread across the main mansion and the two annexes. The elegant rooms are dominated by the colours brown and purple. Antique pieces are arranged in perfect harmony with modern furniture. Free WiFi.
Feeling right at home away from home. The place will instantly make you feel good and cared for.

As soon as you enter the premises through the gate, the beguiling scent of jasmine fills the air. The terrific landscaped grounds, which are hidden from outside view, represent a sanctuary in Taormina, which tends to be overrun by tourists.
Only three of the 25 rooms have a nice view of the sea, whereas the others are either overlooking the garden or the adjacent church.
