Villa Sant'Andrea, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina Mare

Le personnel, les restaurants

Chambre trop petite et SDB de la taille d’un hôtel 2 étoiles

One of the hotels we stayed in for our honeymoon - absolutely beautiful. The beach was amazing. The breakfast buffet was spectacular (french toast!!!) and the facility and services top notch. The location was great too the chair lift to take you up town is right infront of the hotel. And they also offer a complimentary shuttle service and boat ride

Cant think of anything

Her şey

Her şey çok iyiydi

Denizi çok ama çok pisdi ve garsonlar ciddi anlamda labuali

Fantastic Amazing Gorgeous Stylish the staff were incredible We will be back!!

Nothing! It’s pure class!!

The location is excellent and the service is fantastic.

Very Beautiful property and amenities . Staff was exceptionally kind and helpfull . Special thanks to Carla ( manager) , Roberta , Sandy and staff of the restaurant , aswell as Delfi ( boat captain)

A few times some noise in the corridor Single wash basin in bathroom

Excellent fabulous location, wonderful staff Excellent facilities

Great staff especially the concierge team in helping organise our itinerary. The restaurant was superb, and food and service excellent. Lovely location overall.

A minor issue - we were in 406 and there was a door being slammed 10 times an hour throughout the day. I think it was one of the staff private entrances below our room. If the support staff allow the door to slam, we can hear it in the guest rooms.

Top class, clean, beds so comfortable, view to die for, staff friendly and beyond

Nothing

Facilites were lovely and the transfer between Timeo up in town and Sant Andrea was fantastic.

The fact that everything the kids wanted to use in the beach club was extra cost was silly as we were paying a lot to be there and I would have thought this could be included (like paddle boards) for no cost to house guests.

Clean comfortable great location and view friendly staff great breakfast

Unfriendly staff.Very low quality food.Buffet breakfast extremly poor,the food on the menu was not delicious either.Dirty,i saw a cockroach on my terrace, and my room was on the 3rd floor.It was a disappointment, I won't be going back.

Perfect and amazing

after dinner activity

Both Villa Sant Andrea and sister property Hotel Timeo was over expectations, we had dinner in both restaurants and the view and food was exceptional. Also beach club in Villa Sant Andrea was simply gorgeous, we had an also room upgrade thanks to kindness of reservation team. Overall, reallly enjoyed our stay and definitely will go back to this paradise!

Nothing!

O hotel é muito bom , com muito conforto também na praia

O quarto é muito pequeno, e não tem lugar para guardar suas roupas

Everything! We had a wonderful stay at Villa Sant'Andrea.

Everytning

Beautiful setting, well trained courteous staff, comfortable spaces, beach club plus separate pool, food very good.

It’s in need of a refurbishment if they want to charge over £1000 a night. The outdoor restaurant is particularly tired.

Beautiful view and location Great staff

Too much to list !!

Time seemed to go quickly !

Loved the location and the views were amazing.

The most beautiful hotel, wonderful staff, and incredible food!!!

I had the BEST experience ever in my life, staff were amazing, hotel location is just fantastic, clean beach area with the best service, room and terrace were very clean. BUT, compared the price, room was veeeeeery small even though it was a premium room the terrace was even bigger than the room.

Very small rooms comparing to the price

We have always chosen to stay at Belmond Hotels and they always live up to their reputation . Simply Superb !

We had an amazing stay at Villa Sant’Andrea. The hotel is next to a cliff with sea views. The rooms are beautiful and luxurious, ours had a huge private terrace with views. Also the pool and beach were amazing. I can definitely recommend it!

Beautiful and staff amazing

All good

The staff was amazing, truly the best I've ever experienced. Warm, friendly and very professional, happy to accomodate absolutely anything we asked for. Although it's an expensive hotel, it was worth it and the complimentary little surprises - complimentary evian facial spray at the beach, granita and biscuits, Easter cake delivered to our room - made it feel very special and good value.

The location is on the coast so you had to take a taxi or the complimentary shuttle to the town which is perched on top of the hill. You could walk if you were fit and energetic! We preferred the beachside setting with panormaic views across to Italy. The hotel is beautiful and the staff outstanding.

Perfect Hotel. Lovely staff. Amazing food.

Nothing

Fabulous beachside location, beautifully presented interior, very comfortable, sea facing bedroom

Nothing

Beautiful hotel with lovely amenities and staff. Would definitely recommend and return!

Rooms are quite small and there was only room for one luggage rack which was challenging because we were coming from the USA for 10 days with 2 large suitcases

Amazed by the service and staff

Outstanding service by every member of the staff!!!! Outstanding hotel!

Almost everything.

Beach service was not working properly.

Excellent room, beautiful view of the water. The hotel restaurant with indoor and outdoor views were perfect. Everything about the hotel itself from the small details in the room to the pool to the beach club were well thought out and felt luxurious.

When we went, the weather was stormy on our first day. This meant that the beach was closed (no problem). However the next day when the weather was nicer the hotel didn’t open the beach. They had men working to bring down beach furniture the whole day but didn’t put out any lounge chairs or even offer towels to sit on the beach. The day after that, the beach club was open as usual and lovely. Overall I was disappointed in the decision making not to prioritize the experience of the many guests (not just us) who wanted to enjoy the beach and had to hike up to our rooms to get towels or take them from the pool. On our last day, there were tradesmen doing plaster and paint work in our hallway at around 8:30am. This was in my opinion far too early for non-essential repairs to be carried out. Overall, the hotel itself was beautiful but the decisions to not prioritize guest experience with the beach club and the repairs in the hotel were disappointing and felt like there wasn’t an engaged member of hotel management making decisions to ensure the best experience even in challenging circumstances (like the day after a rainstorm).

Everything was perfect! We were there for our honeymoon so the staff kindly upgraded us and gave us a beautiful bottle of wine that we enjoyed on our balcony. The breakfast was incredible, everything was thought out, and the attention to detail was fantastic. It's so great that you can enjoy the hotel by the sea but then also get a free shuttle up to Taormina and have access to the other Belmond hotel as well. All in all, we'll definitely be going back as we loved every minute.

The location directly on the beach is the best thing about the hotel as well as the impeccable service.

There was nothing we didn’t like.

Amazing service and beautiful property right on the beach, with a wonderful calm cove with turquoise waters. The staff was incredible and made our trip excellent.

The rooms and hotel are stunning and very clean and comfortable

Nothing

Amazing location and staff

Depending where your room is, it's a maze! Sun goes off the beach late afternoon...

Unique location with direct beach access. Very comfortable accommodations (comfy beds and spacious suite with balcony) facing the sea. Excellent food. Staff extremely friendly and helpful, taking care of our every need. Complimentary boat outing was a lovely and unexpected perk - as swimming in the Ionian Sea may be among the most delightful swimming experiences anywhere on the globe!

Due to its seaside location, the hotel is significantly smaller than its sister property. It is also prone to mold - as this odor can be detected in isolated corners where guests are not expected to venture. The hotel should pay extra special attention to this.

Excellent service. Some things weren’t right but the hotel staff went out of their way to make sure things were fixed as soon as possible. Everyone was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

Our stay at Belmond hotel was amazing, we got a complimentary room upgrade to a junior suite which was beautiful. Blemond sant andrea has the most beautiful sea view in Taormina. Breathtaking. The breakfast was delicious too. I'll definitely stay at Belmond sant adrea again!

Everything. It was perfect

Nothing

The property itself is beautiful - so lush and gorgeous. The private beach location was perfect for a hot July. It's about 15 minutes from town, but the hotel provides a free shuttle to and from (or you can take the cable cars). Everything from check-in to check-out was perfect.

What an amazing property. Great staff and beautiful location. Thoroughly enjoyed this property. If I make it back to Sicily I will for sure stay here again.

An amazing location. Our junior suite had beautiful sea views and was one of the best places we’ve stayed. Loved the pool and beach. The staff were helpful and the food was fantastic.

Nothing

This is a fabulous hotel. Our junior suite was huge with a beautiful sea view. Staff and food both great. One of the best hotels we’ve stayed.

Excellent location. Amazing staff. Very good food choices. I will definitely go back.

Beach is nor sand but pebble rocks. Everything else is fantastic.

Perfect location, incredible food, staff were exceptional

My husband and I stayed at Belmond Santa Andrea in Taormina to celebrate my birthday. The property is in a prime location, beautiful views throughout. Room service is amazing, restaurants are ok. Staff is friendly, some are a little serious/ pretentious. Rooms are outdated and restrooms are in desperate need of a renovation. There is mold in the shower’s. Not the best belmond property we’ve stayed at. Definitely room for improvement. Wouldn't stay here again unless renovated. The staff at belmond timeo are better trained and food is much better up there as far as restaurants and bar.

Amazing property! Amazing staff and overall amazing experience! Can’t wait to be back!

Hotel is charming and in a stunning waterside location; however, we felt our room was very simple for the high price.

Location was good. Service very good. All the staff treated us well. Great breakfast. View amazing.

Mosquito!

Service excellent. Location good but shuttle made it perfect!! Beautiful piece of property. Grounds well maintained.

The bathroom very, very small. Only 1 person at a time could use.

Beautiful hotel with best in class staff. After some less stellar hotels on a trip through Italy and an extremely long travel day, arriving here felt like a miracle between beautiful rooms with incredible views, great food at Brace, and the most welcoming team onsite. checking out was hard - we did not want to leave!!

Fantastic location and service

Beautiful resort! Staff is so friendly and helpful.

Gorgeous!!! Amazing hotel, the staff was wonderful, the location is right on the beach and so tranquil. The food was incredible, but expensive. Just a dream!!

Amazing place, very quiete and comfortable. The team is super nice and helpful

Nothing to be specified

Everything! Perfect 15/10 the staff is the most amazing service and helpfull in the world! Excelent view! The food is amazing and the beds are extra fluffy

Charme of an old grand hotel combined with modern service and an Italian way of care !

The view is amazing and the room was large and elegant.

No complaints

The hotel has lovely views over the water and has particularly beautiful gardens, which are very peaceful. It is easy to get into Taormina old town either on the free shuttle bus or by the cable car which is directly opposite the entrance to the hotel. The hotel is a traditional old villa with extra rooms built in a separate block immediately next to the main house.

The first room we were offered was little more than a cupboard just off the reception area. In fairness when they saw how disappointed we were the staff immediately moved us to a very nice room with sea view and balcony. The restaurant was only averagely good but very pricey and the wine list was seriously overpriced. Also beware: there are stairs everywhere so it is not a suitable place for anyone with mobility issues.
