This is an amazing property. The reason I booked was the mention of the elevator carved out of stone which lead to the private beach. As soon as we were checked in, we headed down, and it did not disappoint. You are literally stepping out into a cave and your first view is of the beach which was beautiful. If you head the other direction, you are walking though a carved stone walkway to the pool, pool bar, and a restaurant. The staff was very friendly and helpful, particularly the lifeguards and pool bar staff. The room was as described. We had a balcony and our view of the sea was gorgeous.
Tucked into rocks and mountains, Splendid overlooks the Ionian Sea and the Calabrian coast, a short walk from Taormina’s picturesque town center and 3-minute walk from Corso Umberto main street.
Amazing place to stay. We went to Taormina for the day and enjoyed Castelmola during the evenings. Amazing view of the city and Mt Etna from the castle. It was easy to get to Taormina and we used both walking paths to get upto Castelmola, we enjoyed both paths equally. Loads of good shops/restaurants in the area too. Pizzeria Nina for pizza was amazing.

It's a lovely small village above Taormina. It is quiet, has beautiful views and friendly locals. The centre is lively, however not crowded or noisy. It was perfect, we loved it even better than Taormina!

Old Narrow streets, little bars and restaurants with spectacular views from so high,quite small so not too exhausting walking in 30+ temperatures but plenty of choice for refreshments including the famous bar Turrissy. Ours was a "family" visit with my Wife and eldest daughter 39!

You have to climb to go anywhere.
You have to climb to go anywhere. There are only a few shops. Some restaurants don't open until 7pm. The views of Mount Etna are fabulous. It is very safe. Try the almond wine over a bowl of ice cream; you won't regret it.

Castelmola is an exceptional and unique place.
Castelmola is an exceptional and unique place.
The views are incredible, the choice of food is fantastic, and the locals are warm and welcoming.
We were lucky enough to see Mount Etna light up during our last evening there, which made the whole trip for us.
The view spectacular. The hotel is decorated with antiques and the rooms are traditional in decor. The shower had strong pressure and hot water, but it is not enclosed so it neglected to warm the body fully. The beds were comfortable and liens clean and of high quality. The breakfast was very good with choices of pastries, meats, cheeses and soft to hard boiled eggs, made upon request! There was parking onsite for 7e or free down the road, but onsite was most convenient. The hotel is a pleasant 10 minute walk below Castelmola proper.
Castelmola is a beautiful little town about 20 minutes higher than Taormina. It doesn’t have a touristy feel to it, while it has some great restaurants and lovely people.
This little house is right in the center of old town and yet very quiet. The bed is comfortable and the shower is great! Right next door is a great place to get coffee and a chocolate croissant. There is free parking about a 5 minute walk and a bus every hour to Taormina.
Thanks to Adriana, the owner, for helping me!
We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Blandano. All the staff were so hospitable and accommodating. Ms Adriana is incredible, she is friendly and helpful always plus makes an amazing breakfast. The rooms are very comfortable and relaxing set in an amazing location in a beautiful town, we thoroughly enjoyed being in Castelmola with its breathtaking views and authentic feel. Will definitely be back to Casa Blandano!
The apartment is very clean, comfortable, good atmosphere, well equipped with all facilities. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped to cook simple things. The host was very nice and helpful and speaks English. The apartment is located in the centre of Castelmola, close to everything. We had a great time. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to relax above Taormina in a quiet, beautiful little village.
Wonderful location in Castelmola right on the Main Street. We chose Castelmola over Taormina just to avoid the crowds and enjoy the view. I’m so glad we did. This apartment had a very well stocked kitchen, great hot water, comfortable bed and even a washer (although my clothes wouldn’t quite dry completely in two days). Communication with host was great and we’d absolutely choose to stay here again.
We had such a wonderful stay at the hotel! The family running the hotel is so nice and paying attention to every detail. They really want to make you feel great at your stay. I had my birthday and they were so kind to upgrade us to the suite! They even wanted to prepare something for breakfast because we didn’t find anything gluten-free the day before. Very much recommend the stay here!
Surrounded by nature, with an incredible view of Castelmola and Taormina. It is remote, with the mentioned rooster near by, with its hairpin bends and unforgettable scenery, made it our best choice to close the two weeks journey in Sicily.
Simple, helpful and kindest owners I met in a long time.
Managed to visit from here Etna, Alcantara Gorge, Castelmola, Taormina and several beaches.
The village of Castelmola is beautiful and the property if five minutes or less from the center and from a great mimimarket. It is easy to catch the bus into Taormina. The house is well equipped and there are good supplies of water and fruit juice when you arrive. Giuseppe is a great host and replies promptly to calls for help.
Awesome place. Staff was kind and helpful. We received a guest parking sign which allowed us to enter into the town (which is not allowed otherwise for non-residents) and park our car in front of the hotel. Breakfast was great and the best thing about this place - there was beautiful view on the Etna from the terrace.
If you like views, you won't find better than this! Forget Taormina, go to Castelmola!
Loved everything about it.
Lovely little centre to walk around.
Room was beautiful, amazing balcony with a view to die for!
Garage to park the car in, we had a big landrover defender and it fit in the garage.
Beautiful apartment, perfectly located in peaceful area between Taormina and Castelmola. Stunning view from the window. Helpful and hospitable personel who welcomed us with wine and snacks. The house was warm during winter. Highly recommended!
Good location to visit Taormina and stay for a night. Amazing views. Great service from the person at the desk, not so much from the lady serving the breakfast. Wonderful views, nice experience at a vintage hotel.
Adriana was very welcoming and communicated with us from the beginning till the very end of our stay. The accommodation is well equipped and it was really clean. Castelmola offers beautiful views.
Located outside Taormina close to castelmola. Host was great , received us with some drinks and offered great advices on nearby places. Restaurant has lots of options and food was great.
Staying in the mountaintop town of Castelmola is quite special. This is a low key hotel with lots of places to sit and relax.The view from our room was stunning..
Good location if you want to stay in Castelmola and not do much travelling. Great host Veronica and the lovely housekeeper who keeps the place very clean.
