Hotel Villa Ducale

What a wonderful experience for us at hotel villa ducale!!! Unforgettable experience and the staff was absolutely amazing!!! We even decided to extend our stay ❤️

Hotel Villa Ducale is surely one of the more picturesque hotels in Taormina. The main lobby and restaurant offers sweeping views of the water up to Mount Etna. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and go out of their way to book restaurants, taxis, or just offer suggestions on enjoying Taormina. The hotel offers shuttles to beach clubs, and also to Taormina which is approximately a 10-minute drive down the winding mountain road. You will need to reserve your place on these shuttles in advance.

Wonderful experience! Highly recommend this beautiful boutique hotel perched in the hills above Taormina that gives sweeping views of the sea and Mt Etna and gives impeccable, high quality service and hospitality. The new infinity pool is so perfect! Like a dream. Our private terrace was so beautiful! The staff, I can’t say enough about how warm and friendly they are- truly I felt like we were received like family. The breakfast offers delicious local fresh foods with great variety and the Incanto restaurant as well has creative cocktails, great wine list and gorgeous food with literally the best view in Taormina. Free shuttle to and from city center and beaches- this hotel is my home when I go to Taormina for so many reasons! Go visit them and you will discover another jewel in the crown of Taormina. Unforgettable experience!

What an incredible experience at Villa Ducale. EVERYTHING exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, their team made us feel so comfortable. The front desk ladies gave us a glass of champagne, gave us directions and let us check in early. The hotel and rooms were beautiful and had the best views in all of Taormina. The restaurant, food and ambiance was divine! The staff knew it was my birthday, sang me happy birthday and gave me cannoli and tiramisu. Overall, the experience was incredible. Thank you so much to the staff for making the such an amazing stay!

It was our first time to Taormina, so no comparison possible, but I genuinely find it very hard to believe there is a hotel better than Villa Ducale! The view is fabulous, the hotel very charming. We especially loved Villa Ducale for its boutique and intimate atmosphere, which suited us far better than the bustling, touristy center of Taormina. The road to the hotel is not easy (narrow and curvy) but the hotel arranges a shuttle service to the centre, every hour. Finally, special thanks to Giuliano and Daniel - the concierges - who were a tremendous help to plan our holiday! They suggested restaurants, activities, etc, and helped us to plan and book everything - never experienced service like this before!
