The Hotel La Plage Resort, Taormina. Four-star accommodation situated on the bay opposite the lovely Isola Bella, this Taormina hotel has a superb position, within a pine wood, with a private beach, and yet close to the town. The hotel has a spa, solarium, very nice lounge bar and open air pool. And the accommodation at this Taormina hotel is very flexible, with double rooms and villas (sleeping one or two people) with small gardens. There are also more spacious rooms available for family groups.

All bedrooms at this Taormina hotel have minibar, bathroom, satellite TV, air conditioning, bathroom with shower and a work desk. The hotel offers internet access and the Restaurant Isolabella is excellent, recommended in the best tourist guides. Dinner can be served outdoors by the swimming pool or indoors in the lounge bar. The menu is a superb mix of traditional Mediterranean and Sicilian flavours with a touch of Asian.

And this Taormina hotel has such a good position for exploring the city and its surroundings. From the beach, you take the cable car up to the city of Taormina, up on the hill. You'll be there in a minute or two, and find a delightful jumble of medieval streets, with much of the central area pedestrianised. There are sights aplenty, including the famed Greco-Roman amphitheatre of course. There is the 13th century Duomo and other important churches. And the main street of Corso Umberto I has excellent shops and restaurants. Within easy reach too is Mount Etna.
