Debrief complet à la fin du séjour pour quelques suggestions.
Super séjour à Taormina. Rien a manqué!
Merci
AntoineWe had the most wonderful time at beautiful Casa Scimone ! Thank you for letting us stay for a much needed vacation after over a year + in quarantine. We loved the spectacular view, we are sad to leave. All the health and happiness to your family ...R.& co.
Es war eine sensationelle Woche, vielen, vielen Dank!!
Wir haben uns vom ersten Augenblick an zu Hause gefühlt – oder sogar noch besser.
Dieses Haus, voll gutem Geschmack, toller Kunst, großartiger Bücher! Dieser Blick auf Bucht und Berg! Nicht zuletzt die Spuren von Filmleidenschaft und vor allem Don Corleone.
Vor allem aber: eine wundervolle Gastgeberin mit der man gerne länger geplaudert hätte. Was für eine Familiengeschichte…
Wir sind sicher, es gibt ein Wiedersehen.
Voller Vorfreude: Markus……The owner of CASA SCIMONE was exceptional, making us feel welcome and safe. She was a font of information on many of the activities available, and nothing was too much trouble to arrange. Angela also was wonderful, and we all relished the food she provided.
As far as Covid is concerned, I think we felt safer in Traomina than we do in London. The Italian people have taken it on themselves to be safe and considerate with all. The stores and restaurants were all well prepared and followed procedures.
We didn't plan something for every day but all the activities we wanted to do were no issue: Mt Etna, mountain biking, boat tour, The Godfather tour, and the wineries. Micaela arranged everything and the drivers we had were wonderful.
L.C.What an experience we had: the villa, the sun, the beautiful surroundings of Taormina and your amazing hospitality.
I just wanted to write you and let you know how much we all appreciated our stay last week.
Fantastic house, amazing garden, lovely pool for the kids to play in, great excursions and tasteful food!
Thank you.... You made our stay a memory we will love to think back upon.
K & E
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in Taormina.
Your villa is spectacular and we all felt at home. Thank you for your help on the outstanding tour and your warm hospitality.
Hope to visit again one day !
S.P.Cari,
8 children + 8 adults in this beautiful house.
I can say that after a week we are more than relaxed even though we were afraid of spending together with so many kids. But the spaces are very well structured and opening the eyes in the morning on this lovely view is an amazing experience.
Thank you
AurelioAn incredibly beautiful location and lovely home. Very welcoming and luxurious at the same time!
Could not ask for a better place with amazing views and a quick walk to all of Taormina.
We stayed here in September 2018 with a group of eight and we all loved it (and our host).
I recommend it to everyone and am counting the days until we go back. TracyVilla Scimone is a delight! Quiet, safe and full of character. We all loved the wealth of space and the busy, historic town is within easy walking distance. The villa provided a great retreat and h aving three distinct sleeping homes within the grounds of the villa meant that our party of 13 could have privacy when ever we needed it - Or we could join together for big meals or celebrations ( one birthday and one anniversary!).
Michele, Paul, Benjamin and BeatriceStaying at Villa Scimone gives one a taste of the golden years of ‘dolce vita”of Taormina.
A charming and romantic setting furnished with thought and loads of personality creating a relaxing and unique vibe. Guy and NickyIt was fantastic, thanks!
And the owner is a delight. She couldn’t have been more helpful.
Best,
JonathanMy friends and I, 11 of us in total, have just returned from a wonderful week in Casa Scimone.
We were (almost) all celebrating our 50th birthdays this year, and had planned this trip for 4 years! We chose Sicily as none of us had ever visited before. I was in charge of organising the accommodation, and spent a lot of time researching earlier this year. Once I found Casa Scimone, all other accommodations were compared to it, and none came close.
We could not have made a better choice if we had spent the rest of the year looking! Casa Scimone is beautiful, inside and out. The outside spaces are so many, we did not have time to spend in all of them! Because of the separate accommodations, the house never felt crowded with 11 of us, though we could come together to eat and enjoy each others' company in comfort. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need, and more.
Our hostess and her team could not have been more hospitable and welcoming. I feel I made so much work for House Manager while trying to organise the 'perfect holiday' for our group, but she was unfailingly helpful and responsive, no matter how many emails I sent! And it was the perfect holiday.
I have been trying to put my finger on what was so special about this holiday and this house, and here it is.....we did not feel like clients, but guests. And what was always going to be a special holiday became unforgettable.
Thank you so much
Catriona, Catherine, Elaine, Ellie, Enda, Fionnuala, Jacinta, Maeve, Margaret, Mary and Trish,
We had a lovely time in Taormina and in the villa. The house manager was very helpful and accommodating. Hopefully, we will rent you next time we visit.
The housekeepers were great and prepared a delicious meal for us.
Don't want to leave but we will be back!
Until we meet.
Thank you!
JoanneWe had a party of 8 stay at Casa Scimone in July 2017. We were greeted by the owner and we all immediately bonded with her. She has a fantastic spirit and energy and we all loved her. She was able to highlight all the things we needed to accomplish in Taormina and helped us get it all set up. And, her knowledge of the local restaurants including what to eat—ie their specialties was awesome. Casa Scimone sits on the hill overlooking the downtown area—about a 10 minute walk. It is perfectly situated. We enjoyed cocktails every evening before dinner overlooking the ocean and the lights of Taormina. What a spectacular way to end each day. The owner also arranged for a chef to cook for us at Casa Scimone twice during our stay. Local produce, fish, meat and PASTA were featured and was fantastic. It was truly one of the most relaxing enjoyable vacations. She is a gracious, wonderful host!
Nicholas
We all enjoyed our stay at Casa Scimone. The view is spectacular and its gardens are absolutely beautiful you and your staff made us all feel at home. The dinners that the host made for us were delicious and especially the desserts. The town was very nice. Thank You for our stay.Casa Scimone was the perfect holiday home for our family of 7. This family
owned property is very well equipped, has a library of books for the
avid reader, two fantastic kitchens suitable for the serious cook and is
very spacious. Breathtaking views and a short walk to the beautiful
village of Taormina, no need for a car. The cleaning staff were very
friendly and discrete. Micaela the host was extremely helpful, her
notes and tips on the local restaurants, tours and fresh produce in
addition to her prompt replies to any of our questions made our holiday
just perfect. We will definitely be back to holiday again at Casa
Scimone. Thank you my travel agent for being so personable to deal with and
presenting this property so truthfully on the website.We stayed at Casa Scimone September 2016, and wish to recommend it to other travelers.
We have travelled extensively throughout the world.
Casa Scimone in Taormina, Sicily is one of our favorite places. It has a commanding view of the Mediterranean and Mt. Etna and is centrally located within easy walking distance of the picturesque town with its great shopping, historical sites and wonderful restaurants. Casa Scimone is on a quiet street easily accessible, with gated off-street parking. All the rooms and patios are professionally maintained and immaculate. Every detail is attended to, including a wonderful elevator.
All of this is enough to highly recommend Casa Scimone, but there is another feature that makes it stand alone: its owner who is welcoming, gracious, very helpful and professional. She gave us great recommendations on places to eat and visit, made reservations for us and joined us for a home-cooked dinner on the villa’s patio. The meal, by the way, was one of the best we had in Italy and is not to be missed.
When you stay at Casa Scimone, you will join the chorus of all who sign its praise.For a group of 10 adults (friends and family) to find the perfect vacation, in the perfect location with the most knowledgeable, gracious, helpful, friendly, accommodating host -- well, this is impossible, yes? Actually, no -- not if you are lucky enough to experience Casa Scimone in Taormina with the owner !
The rooms are wonderful, the kitchens fully appointed with what's necessary for cooking full meals, or just the casual in-home diner. The meals prepared for us by Micaela and her staff were outstanding; and the recommendations for restaurants and Sicilian excursions were uniformly excellent. Seeing Etna, the Ionian Sea, and the boats and tour ships in and out of the area made for wonderful viewing.
The outdoor space is so amazing that you can miss some of the interesting and beautiful features inside the house, but stop to admire the artwork on the walls and the small details that make the house unique. Worth mentioning again, having two meals prepared at the Casa was a highlight of the stay. The food is amazing, typical for Sicily and some of it is grown in the Casa gardens.
The group is unanimous: these were the most comfortable and enjoyable accommodations we have ever experienced on holiday. Future vacations, no matter where in the world, will have difficulty matching this one.We all had such an amazing time this week. We don't want to leave! Thanks for all the great help and recommendations.
The beaches, the boat, the cooking class…. so many great times! We'll be back!
Carmelina and JoeWe have had a wonderful holiday at Casa Scimone in Taormina, Sicily. Before our stay Massimiliano from Ville in Italia was extremely helpful in booking transfers to from the airport for us and gave us lots of advice on excursions to do once we were there. Casa Scimone is situated at the top of Toarmina and the views are spectacular. We only hired a car for one day to go to the Waterpark as our hostess organised many trips for us and shops and restaurants were all within easy walking distance. Our hostess was very knowledgeable about the area and really made our stay enjoyable. One night we stayed in and had a traditional Sicilian meal cooked for us which was delicious! Casa Scimone is made up of two very comfortable properties, which worked well for us as we were an extended family of ten and so could spread ourselves out. Sicily is a wonderful place and we all hope to return one day.
Thank you again for all your assistance with our holiday. Sicily is truly an amazing place.
Kind regards,
LauraThank you so much for allowing us to share your wonderful home for two weeks. We have all had a fabulous time and don’t want to leave!
We will miss the wonderful views and relaxing on the terraces.
Thanks so much too for al your great recommendations for restaurants and excursions. We loved spending time at Paradise Beach and the Acqua Park at Etna Land. Stunning views, gorgeous location, very comfortable accommodation and the lovely knowledgable of the owner all made for a wonderful holiday. As a party of ten we were able to spread out in comfort. So many lovely restaurants in Taormina but we loved our dinner at home in the pretty garden arranged by the owner. Our favourite evening was the one where you cooked a traditional Sicilian meal for us – all delicious!
We certainly will miss Casa Scimone. Would definitely return.
The villa was amazing! Taormina was absolutely beautiful! Such a fabulous trip it was hard to leave and we are sad it's over. The owner was wonderful!! Thank you for being so so helpful during all of the planning. Missing Taormina, MicheleOur feedback regarding our stay in Villa Scimone can only be super positive and 5 stars +
We were received graciously and warmly and throughout the sat the owner made us feel so welcome and she was amazing. Always accommodating our requests and made sure we got into the best places in the area.
The property is stunning with breathtaking view and the area is second to none.
Over all everybody enjoyed their stay there and we will surely make sure to go back soon.
I will also recommend this property to other parties as well as your services which right from start was very professional and amazing for that I thank you.
Kind regards
SalvatoreThanks for sharing your 6★’s Casa Scimone with all of us! Our stay here was a true celebration in life with our granddaughters’ graduation from high school and college Your furnishing plus attention to detail is much appreciated
Gratitude and love, M. & C.Hello,
We are still talking about our wonderful vacation in Taormina. I was a bit nervous booking a villa via your website because you never know what you will end up with. Our emails to you and the owner asking for information, booking transfers, etc put me at ease. When we arrived at Villa Scimone we were so excited. The villa is amazing and the owner was a wonderful hostess. Anytime we had a question or concern she was there for us. Our most memorable meal was when we went to the local butcher (recommended by the owner) and bought fresh meat to BBQ at the villa. We had a bottle (or two) of wine and dined outside on the large patio with our family.
I would love to rent this villa again and I would definitely book again via Ville In Italia.
Thank you for helping to make this one of our more memorable vacations!
