About this apartment rental
English-style mansion built in 1939 by the rich old owner Sir. Robert Pretty Barlow, admirer of beauty and good living. A precursor of modern gay culture, he hosted writers, painters and illustrious travelers. He himself a traveler, helped to make Taormina known to many of his countrymen and others.
The apartment is located on the first floor of the house in a very central and panoramic position, overlooking the Etna, the Bay of Giardini Naxos and the Badia Vecchia, one of the most significant monuments of the city.

This place was perfect. Super clean, cute, with amazing views. Host (Furio) was amazing (restaurant recommendations, use of his private beach club membership, etc.). Would deforest recommend for one or two couples.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
The apartment was beautiful and beautifully furnished. The views to the sea and to Mt. Etna were spectacular! The rooms were spacious, and the terrace was lovely. The hosts were simply the best possible, and they made our trip to Taormina by giving us excellent suggestions of how to plan and the right restaurants to go to. Their suggestions which we followed were perfect! Parking, which is a serious problem in Taormina, was arranged by the host and was both convenient and reasonable. We left our car parked for the entire stay, but we could have had in and out access during the day had we needed to explore further afield. Both the host and his wife were available throughout our stay for any questions or assistance, and the host was present at checkout to assist us. We loved our time there, and we owe most of that to the lovely accommodations and the kind and helpful suggestions from our hosts. We would definitely stay there again and we highly recommend it. (Names of the hosts omitted per the VRBO guidelines.)
