Villa Greta Hotel Rooms & Suites

If you check in too late, there will be an additional charge

I stayed at the Hotel Villa Greta from August 16th to 21st with my wife and daughter. They were not days spent in one of those cold and formal hotels but days spent with "family". It was a confirmation of what I had already felt from the first email contacts, had months before during the booking phase. 1) location: stunning location, an unparalleled panorama overlooking Etna and the Naxos gardens. In the evening, you could see the lights of the city of Catania and Syracuse. Both early in the morning and in the evening you could not help but spend time on the veranda admiring the beauty of this immensity that transmitted peace and serenity to us, all surrounded by a deep silence; 2) Staff: we were treated with kindness (you could feel it, it wasn't just related to a mere job they did, but it came from their way of being "that is, how to make a "family member" feel good"); discretion, maximum collaboration in meeting our every need, even the unexpected, worthy of such a lovely and familiar land as Sicily. A heartfelt thanks to Cristina, Salvo, Ranidu, Rosalba, the chef Alessandro and all the rest of the staff that we didn't get to know; 3) rooms: clean, tidy and smelled good every day. In the evening when we returned it felt like we were coming home; 4) cuisine: also in this case we enjoyed the flavors of beautiful Sicily, thanks to dishes prepared with care and love. Flavors coming from fresh products and ingredients. Indescribable willingness to change some dishes, both for reasons related to some allergies of my wife, and to the fact that both my wife and my daughter particularly love fish and vegetables; 5) activities: I had with me a program of things to see and do, but thanks to the advice daily, efficient and punctual staff, we optimized everything, managing to do in just 4 full days, a holiday with cultural visits, 2 days at the beach, excursions, shopping, all despite some unforeseen weather. We were even told which places to taste some typical Sicilian dishes and products (pastries, rotisseries, bars etc..); In short, when you travel with your family, the needs and requests that could be made can be many and we have never received a "it can't be done" or "now I see" or a "doubtful face" but always and only "certainly" or "of course". I believe that spending those much desired days of vacation with "family" is the absolute best vacation you can have. Thanks again from the heart to Hotel Villa Greta and all its dear staff. MM

We chose Villa Greta thanks to a smartbox. It couldn't have been a more welcome gift. The hotel has a breathtaking view of Etna and with a 10 minute walk you can get directly to Taormina. A staircase connects the structure to the center. For us it was never an inconvenience because the view from the room was a plus of the holiday. The staff was always very helpful with all our requests and information. Last thing.... The breakfast was super! We will remember Giulia's cakes!!! Don't miss it!!!!
