The Area
AltaRocca occupies a fabulous position just a minute's walk from the centre of the ancient, glorious, beguiling and perfectly positioned town of Taormina. The town's labyrinth of pretty streets, its panoramic piazze, its boutiques, its Michelin-starred restaurants and its chic bars are all on your doorstep, not to mention its myriad historical and architectural treasures.
In the summer months, Taormina's world-famous Graeco-Roman theatre hosts numerous concerts, operas and other events, so you'll never be short of things to do in the evening.
The idyllic beaches of Mazzarò and Isola Bella below Taormina are just a cable car ride away, making it wonderfully easy for those who wish to spend time by and in the Ionian Sea.
Sicily's Ionian Riviera has much to offer besides Taormina, including the huge attraction of Mount Etna and the villages and towns that populate its flanks.
Guests staying at AltaRocca are also within easy day trip range of Catania (a Baroque lava-stone city with vibrant streets markets and much more), ancient Syracuse, once the mightiest city in Magna Graecia, and the UNESCO World Heritage towns of Noto, Modica, Ragusa and Scicli.
