About this property

Chateaux Lemon in the lush Taormina countryside-2 pools-8 bedrooms-top garden

The villa-chateaux lies in the countryside of Taormina in a gorgeous old family estate producing lemons, oranges and olive oil, 2 kms from the beach and 7 from Taormina. Restaurants, shops and facilities are distant a few minutes driving from the property. The shopping center in the main street of Taormina is distant 10/15 minutes driving from the property where you can find the top world brand shops like: Louis Vuitton, Dior, Hermès (opening soon), Gucci, Dolce e Gabbana, Armani, Tods, Lacoste, Falconeri, Moschino, Rolex. The area is the same one where the White Lotus series was filmed.
The Chateaux is close to the beach, Taormina and shops and in the mean time far from all.
The garden is large, well kept, mature and surrounded by an immense countryside. From the garden you can also admire a breathtaking view of the Etna volcano (distant enough to be admired without any danger). There is a large gazebo in the garden to have meals or to stay alfresco overlooking the volcano and a stunning barbecue area in the lemon grove. In the summer evenings you can dine in the garden under the big gazebo (fit for 20/30 pax) and sometimes you may be lucky enough to admire the eruptions. A unique natural show in the world!
In the garden there are two swimming pools. One bigger and deeper in the lemon grove with a diving board and an amazing solarium in the lemongrove and the other one smaller ideal for children (3,90 feet deep).
Peace and serenity are guaranteed. Both the main house and the dependence have direct access to the garden.
The house has been restored conjugating the charme and the modern utilities such as air conditioning, heating, fridges in all bedrooms, ice maker and wifi.
Fit for max 16 people the house is ideal for families and groups who like luxury and the peace of the countryside.
GROUND FLOOR: there are 5 double bedrooms (Queen size or twins) with their own bathroom with shower ensuite , a large comfortable sitting room with stone fireplace , a charming confortable dining-kitchen room, a large terrace.
FIRST FLOOR: a bedroom with 2 single beds, cloak room, library and small terrace with view on the Etna volcano
DEPENDENCE ADJACENT TO THE VILLA: two double bedrooms with their own bathroom ensuite (2 bathrooms with shower) , a small kitchen-living and an exclusive gazebo with a small garden.
MAX CAPACITY including the dependence16 pax.
The property is ideal for a vacation for family groups, friend groups, business group.
Top for children as well. Ideal for country lovers but close to Taormina and to the beach. THE PROPERTY CAN ALSO BE RENTED WITHOUT THE DEPENDENCE (see VRBO property n. 10355208).
Amazing in Summer, fantastic for a Spring holiday and in Autumn. Ideal for Christmas and Easter. Daily maid and a super sicilian cook are available on demand.

Fantastic group stay
We had a fantastic group stay at the villa that comfortably accommodated for a group of 12 adults. The facilities and environment were beautiful and well enjoyed by our group. The house team and manager were very welcoming and accommodated most of our needs. We were quite disappointed to lose our security deposit due to some stains on the terracotta tiles which were the flooring for all the communal outdoor cooking and dining areas. We were not warned of the risk or advised of the caution needed when cooking and eating in these areas which led to a disappointing outcome. It would be helpful for future guests if this information was included in the check-in process. All in all, we had a marvellous stay and will remember our group holiday at the villa very fondly.

Beautiful villa well located to explore the area.
Our extended family of 9 stayed her for a week in July. The views from the grounds are beautiful and we were very surprised by the amount of space you have outside with plenty of room to sit in the shade, swim and sunbathe. We also enjoyed a game of football with Etna as our bsckdrop! All the bedrooms are a good size with their own bathroom. Monica was very welcoming and helpful and a real star. We booked Maria to cook for us one evening which was fantastic. As well as amazing food, Maria was so friendly. Nearby we visited Taormina, Isla Bella and Naxos which are all lovely but very very busy. We loved Castelmola as very peaceful and Ragusa. The only things I can suggest in terms of improvement would be a better bbq (in size and weight); a larger kettle and some more sun loungers. Would definitely recommend for a group of friends or family.

Great Villa
Excellent villa in a beautiful location with views of Etna across the vineyard from the garden. Swimming pool well used and shaded outdoor table and chairs welcome in the heat. Accommodation was spacious and clean, although beds somewhat hard, and the kitchen had limited equipment. Easy walk to village, which had many ice-cream shops to the delight of our children and also simple shops and restaurants. Many things to do in the area including visiting Taormina, Mount Etna, River gorge and beaches/boat trips. Monica was an excellent manager - very friendly and efficient, and the meal cooked by Maria for us was amazing. I think it should be made clear on the owners direct website that air-conditioning is not included in the price of the villa and it is an extra that needs to be paid -the amount requested did seem somewhat excessive to us. Overall though we had a great holiday and would recommend this villa.

One of my best holidays ever
Beautiful location, just in front of the Etna vulcan. The resort is surrounded by vignards and fruit trees, very relaxing. A lot of care and attention to details. The rooms are spacious and clean. The best part is the assistance from the staff: friendly and professional at all times. I recommend the "granita" and pasta alla norma. Fantastic!
