Sharing my experience and situation at Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo in Taormina sicilia. The hotel consists of two separate buildings: the main Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo and the adjacent Villa Flora. Although the two buildings are part of the same property, they offer different accommodation. Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo offers more luxurious rooms and suites, often with stunning views of the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna. In comparison, Villa Flora is located about 2 minutes walk from the main building and provides accommodation without the same facilities or views.
Villa Flora has different entrances, addresses, and is separated by the (Greek Theater). Unlike the main building, Villa Flora does not have its own bar or restaurant. To enjoy services such as dining or bars, guests staying at Villa Flora need to walk to the main building. This meant leaving Villa Flora, walking through the busy streets near the Greek Theater, and weaving through the crowds to get to the main building. It was only 2 minutes, but imagine a lot of space and time to get down early for breakfast and think about it before going to bed at night. It's not very convenient to go downstairs to drink, or to change into a swimsuit and want to go to the swimming pool. For me, Villa Flora is definitely another hotel that shouldn't share the same name as Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo. A friend said that if his house price is almost the same as that of Ritz Paris, he shouldn't settle for it.

Neomi, the front desk clerk at the hotel, was very friendly. The entire hotel is actually divided into two parts, Timeo on the mountain and San'Andrew on the beach. There is a free shuttle bus between the two hotels every half an hour, which is actually very convenient. Timeo has a great view and the service is first-class. There are welcome fruit snacks when you check in, and a cup of goodnight tea before going to bed at night. Since we arrived early, the front desk thoughtfully arranged for us to have some drinks at the bar. We checked out at 3 pm because we forgot the time because we went to the beach to play. No one rushed us at all with a 90% occupancy rate! For dinner, we chose to go to a restaurant on the beach to enjoy the sunset. Every dish was delicious. I was really satisfied with this stay.

The room was nice, a little empty, but the king-size bed was made of two mattresses put together, which I didn't like. The hotel bar was in a great location, with a beautiful view and good drinks. The overall service was very warm, but one staff member at the reception made me feel uncomfortable. When I wanted to book a shuttle bus, he repeatedly emphasized that this service was only for guests staying in the hotel, but I had clearly told him that I was staying in the hotel. I'm not sure if his repeated emphasis was based on me being Asian or based on my sloppy dressing, which made me feel uncomfortable. I hope to strengthen employee training.

A memorable week spent with my now fiancé. Our last holiday as a couple before welcoming our first child. We were both in agreement that we will be coming back with our child.

Ho soggiornato solo per un giorno, principalmente per via del costo elevato, ma posso dire con certezza che ne è valsa assolutamente la pena. È stata una giornata perfetta sotto ogni punto di vista. La posizione è straordinaria: una vista panoramica mozzafiato sulla città, sulla baia e sul maestoso Etna che domina l’orizzonte. La camera era curata in ogni dettaglio, elegante e confortevole, inserita in un contesto di giardini splendidi e ben tenuti. Il servizio è stato impeccabile, con uno staff attento e professionale. La terrazza, tranquilla e rilassante, è il luogo ideale per godersi il panorama e lasciarsi coccolare dall’atmosfera del luogo. Sì, è una struttura costosa, ma è facile capire il perché: l’esperienza complessiva è di altissimo livello, e ogni dettaglio è pensato per offrire il massimo del comfort e della bellezza. Un soggiorno breve ma indimenticabile. Se cercate un luogo speciale dove concedervi un momento di puro benessere, questo è il posto giusto.

Daniella was such an amazing host we couldnt have had a better time! The food was insane and the service was insane. They went out of their way to get me cigarettes and so many other obscure things…yes I am high maintenance. I’d go here again in a heartbeat.
