Villa Isolabella boasts a prime hilltop position above Isola Bella Bay in Taormina, nestled within a centuries-old park and offering breathtaking views across the Ionian Sea. Built in the 19th century, the villa’s timeless elegance and exquisite craftsmanship reflect its noble past.

Set across two floors and sleeping 12, the villa’s ground level houses two lavish living rooms, richly furnished with antiques and period décor - one featuring a cosy fireplace and another with a library - creating an atmosphere of cultured repose. French doors in each room open onto the lush outdoor grounds, seamlessly blending indoor elegance with alfresco charm.

Adjoining the lounges is a grand dining room, perfect for candlelit feasts, and a fully equipped gourmet kitchen ready to host memorable meals. Step outside to find expansive terraces, terraced gardens, an infinity pool, covered dining areas, barbecue and pizza oven—all surrounded by exotic plantings and offering panoramic sea views.

Upstairs, six opulent double bedrooms await, each bespoke in style and adorned with antiques, luxurious fabrics and modern amenities. Every bedroom is ensuite, with two featuring indulgent jacuzzi baths. From these private sanctuaries, guests enjoy uninterrupted vistas of the sea or manicured gardens.

The villa’s outdoor space is equally spectacular: a courtyard lounge, shaded nooks, and a grand infinity pool perched above the coast ensure there’s always a tranquil spot to unwind. Beyond the grounds, a private path descends to secluded coves and the azure sea. Nearby, the iconic Isola Bella nature reserve and Taormina’s vibrant village await exploration.

With its rich history, elegant interiors, luxurious accommodation, and exceptional outdoor settings, Villa Isolabella offers a sublime, unforgettable experience on the island of Sicily.
