Torre Pirandello 6, Emma Villas

When I refer to “the host” in this review, I’m not talking about Emma Villas (the intermediary listed here), but rather the property owner who personally welcomed us and was incredibly responsive throughout our stay. Since we weren’t able to rent a car, getting a few shopping essentials proved challenging, due to the lack of walking sideways—but the host (again, not Emma Villas!) stepped in and took care of it right away. On our departure day, he was especially accommodating with our timing, which we really appreciated. Our family of four had a wonderful stay at Pirandello and absolutely loved Taormina. A truly special vacation!

I truly loved everything about the place! While it’s not a luxury property in the sense of a Four Seasons hotel, it’s a unique and charming tower with an exceptional view and all the essential high-level comforts to feel at home and pampered.: jacuzzi on top roof, bathroom for each bedroom, laundry machine, fully-equipped kitchen, and high-speed internet to catchup with your work. That said, I do wish Emma Villas had provided more useful information and support. They advertise additional services like grocery shopping and private chef bookings, but in our case, none of these were offered or followed up on. So, again, this is not a Four Seasons 5 stars services like Emma Villas may give you the impression. Thankfully, the owner-host more than made up for this—he was incredibly helpful, responsive, and accommodating throughout our stay.
