Exuding a timeless air of almost aristocratic elegance, Belmond Villa Sant’Andrea is one of Sicily’s finest hotels and retains the sense of privacy and seclusion that it held during its former life as a grand, private residence. What’s more, the property occupies its own stretch of beach on the secluded Bay of Mazzarò, with private beach cabanas for days spent basking in the sun.
Tucked beside a private bay, this refined retreat offers spacious rooms and suites with sea-facing balconies and flower-filled terraces.
The signature suite is pure indulgence, featuring two elegant bedrooms, plush interiors and a private pool with panoramic views of the Mediterranean.
Dine al fresco at Ristorante Sant’Andrea, where the catch of the day is served overlooking the calm, turquoise waters of the bay.
From the heated infinity pool and private beach to soothing spa treatments, the resort offers serene relaxation at every turn.
A short cable car ride whisks you into the heart of Taormina for historic sights, boutiques and charming piazzas.

Having played host to royalty and A-listers for over a century, Villa Igiea is well-versed in the art of refined hospitality. Dating back to 1900, this stately home certainly does make a statement - one of opulent escapism in true Forte family fashion. It is Sicilian splendour that meets coastal chic, with leisurely days by the pool followed by candlelit nights on the terraces and morning awakenings to a balmy sea breeze sweeping in through the window.
Olive trees, orange groves and white-sand beaches set the scene for sophisticated Sicilian living at this all-villa offshoot of Verdura Resort, a Rocco Forte Hotel.
