Is B&B Sicily in Love a good base for exploring Taormina?

B&B Sicily in Love sits about 4 km from Taormina's historic center, so the main sights like Porta Catania, Duomo di Taormina, and Piazza IX Aprile are a 3.7 to 4.0 km trip away, not a short walk. The nearest beach, Giardini Naxos, is 2 km off, and the hotel is in a quiet residential area, which makes it a calm starting point. For exploring, you will want a car or a taxi to reach the old town, but the hotel offers parking and can arrange transfers. From there, the sights are easy to visit, and the area also gives quick access to the Alcantara Gorges and Etna tours. So it works well as a base if you are happy to drive or ride to the center each day.

Lovely hotel with good location and parking spot 15-20 drives from Taormina, perfect place to stay between Taormina and Mount Etna. HIghly recommend spacious clean place with unbeaten price / has place to drop off luggage before and after checkin-out. Also available for late checkin with instructions to the room printed out. Only downside is if you have lots of luggages as you need to climb the stair up or down to get to your room. But overall we are very happy! Would recommend!

I had a great 3 night stay at this fantastic B&B. My apartment was very clean and comfortable and included a kitchenette. With a car the location is perfect for visiting Taormina and the surrounding area. Breakfast was the best I have had in Sicily with eggs, cheese, fruit and a wide selection of breads and pastries. Paola, the owner, was very kind and a great source of travel advice.

This is a an excellent B&B run by a very nice family. The rooms are very nice, quiet, comfortable, and private. The breakfast is included and is very very nice, with good homely food. Plus its a short 20 min drive to Taormino, the tourist attractions; where accommodations prices and restaurants are expensive. So this is a vey good alternative if you have a car. Also has great views of the nearby towns

I liked his little Bed and Breakfast. These were basic accommodations but the outside kitchen made you feel like you were far away from home, a unique experience. When you went through the back of the hotel and followed the small street behind you found a strip with reasonable bakeries, a fruit and fish market, even a restaurant, which is open on the weekends. Breakfast was homemade and a bit different every day. The only thing that was not great was on arrival, no one answered the entrance to the front door and the housekeepers working in some rooms above where there was construction/remodeling going on. You could hear them speaking but they did not answer when spoken to. Before leaving we did have an issue with a toilet leak but that did not hinder our stay. I would definitely recommend and stay there again.
