About Belmond Villa Sant'Andrea

Classical elegance oozes from each and every one of Villa Sant’ Andrea’s 68 rooms and suites. Muted, neutral tones create a haven of calm with draped fabrics and rich silk adorning the ornate beds and antique furniture. Rooms are decorated in classic Italian style, featuring indulgent marble bathrooms, fine artwork and plush fabrics. All are well appointed with air-conditioning, satellite TV and WiFi, and most also have a terrace or balcony overlooking the gardens or the glistening blue sea. Interconnecting rooms are available for families too.

Dramatically set below the ancient amphitheatre, overlooking the medieval rooftops of Taormina, the location of the Timeo is just sublime. It's the perfect place to sip a Bellini and gaze across the volcanic coastline of Sicily at the hazy outline of Mount Etna on the horizon. One of the most scenically situated hotels in the Mediterranean, combining old world charm with hearty Sicilian hospitality, a perfect base from which to explore this extraordinary island.
