Unbelievable property, service and rooms. We spent 3 nights at Hotel Timeo and despite being in beautiful Taormina we didnt want to leave the property! Huge perk is the access (beach or otherwise) to their sister property on the water - Belmond Saint Andrea - they treat you as if your one of theirs. Hands down the best Hotel in Taormina ( even better then FS )

This was my first time staying at the Grand Timeo even though I’ve had dinner and drinks there before. The experience exceeded my expectations. The property is one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve seen with idyllic terraced gardens that are practically a botanical garden. The restaurants and Timeo bar all have views of the garden, the sea, and the town - which make you want to stay there for hours on end. We had several meals at the Timeo restaurant as well as the Timeo Grill located in the garden - all great meals. We loved the amenities in the room and bathroom, including the welcome platter of fruits and chocolates and the additional goodies left during turndown service. The staff were all very helpful and friendly - and did everything to make our stay truly special. I can’t wait to return.

Beautiful

Beautiful property, staff, service. Everyone so friendly and welcoming. We only ate in the bar as the restaurant menus did not appeal - food and drink were good here but rather over-priced. Amazing views of the sea, coastline and mount Etna. Great to have a heated swimming pool, although it was closed until 10am so disappointed we couldn’t have a pre-breakfast swim. Very enjoyable stay overall. Thankyou to all the wonderful staff!

This property should be ranked 10 as far as we are concerned. The staff went over and beyond. We hated leaving them. The property was exceptional and all you would expect from a five star hotel. There is nothing we could have done to improve our stay. They even had little going away gifts forus. We loved it
