We had 3 nights here in the Easter holidays and it was brilliant. The apartment we had, has views both sides so mount Etna from the side and Taormina from the front - awesome!
The apartment was spotlessly clean and as it was cold they had thoughtfully put the heating on so it was cosy and comfortable.
There were 3 of us and we had the one bedroom with sofa bed, however as the adjoining apartment was free they kindly gave us this apartment too, which made a massive difference for space and comfort.
I would definitely recommend this apartment for location - like others say you absolutely do need a car, however everything is within 10 minutes drive up some incredibly steep roads!
The only thing I would say, is there needs to be a bread board in the apartment, I struggled cutting bread on a plate as I didn't want to damage the sides.

We stayed in 2 adjoining appartments for a family of 4. They were perfect for us. The views from the balcony were superb. Taormina was a short drive away. The pool was clean with plenty of seating around it. We also enjoyed the table tennis and barbeque area. A great place for a great holiday.

This is one beautiful villa with some amazing people. We had a wonderful time. The views are breath taking. If you get a chance to stay here you should.

1 review We got married in June 2015 in Taormina and were lucky enough to have stayed at the Lemon tree with our families and friends! Karen and Diego made us so welcome and went above and beyond helping us with the wedding eventhough we had booked it separately. We also had a party the day after the wedding at the Lemontree and this was amazing. Everything was taken of, we just had to turn up and enjoy ourselves. I can't recommend a stay at the Lemon tree enough, we loved every minute;)

We were a group of 26people, ranging from adults to 3years old children staying in The Lemon Tree for 10days and every one of us had an amazing time and wonderful stay (nobody wanted to go home).
Our hosts Karen and Diego couldn't do enough for us. Our flight arrived in late and they provided us with fresh local bread, milk and juices for the morning, they also arranged and ordered pizza’s to be delivered even though it was almost 11pm. They provide a taxi service at a very reasonable price and also gave us contact details for Enrico and his 8 seater taxis. The accommodation overall is fabulous, the pool is perfect, we even had lots of games of water volley ball which was great fun, there is a variety of games to play including gigantic size Jenga, Table Tennis, Darts & Pool. The views from the Lemon Tree are spectacular. Karen & Diego are amazing hosts. We also enjoyed their very own Organic Red Wine, Limoncello and Olive oil, all were delicious and highly recommended.
We look forward to returning to the Lemon Tree soon, as it holds a special place in our hearts since we got married here and had Karen as our wedding planner (she is amazing), go to http://www.weddingsinsicily.eu/testimonials.asp

Just back from a great golf trip and have to say a big thanks to Karen and Diego. 6 of us had 3 apartments but were able to meet for breakfasts and evening gatherings on a large balcony. Lovely views over the bay and across to Taormina. Nice pool and games area and we took advantage of their taxi and meals service. They couldn't have been more helpful even down to printing off boarding passes. Restaurant recommendations and for trips spot on. Thanks guys for looking after us.
