We had a wonderful stay at this bed and breakfast. The location was absolutely incredible and made our visit even more special. The property was spotless and very well maintained, which we really appreciated. Most of all, the hosts were absolutely incredible—welcoming, kind, and extremely helpful with anything we needed. We truly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return or recommend this place to others.

Dawn and Massimo were exceptional, kind and helpful hosts - they really looked after us during our stay. Location was outstanding, albeit a tad loud at night and early morning, but that's a small price to pay for how amazing the location and place is!

The property was very clean, quiet and close to many restaurants and shops. Dawn and Massimo were amazing hosts, they are very welcoming and helpful with transportation and giving good recommendations where to eat, etc. The breakfast on the patio is beautiful. It’s the perfect place to stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. I give this place a 10 out of 10.

The couple running casa cifali is super lovely and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. One thing to be aware of, it’s not allowed to eat in the room. If you’re travelling for business or plan to have calm evening nights in the room, this might not be the best option.

Lovely recent stay at Casa Cifali. So close to the centre of Taormina, yet on a quiet street. Very comfortable, clean room. Nice breakfast (first time trying pistachio cheese, will have to try and find it in the UK!) Communication prior and during my stay was excellent. Thank you to Dawn and Massimo for their help and hospitality. Supported in booking a taxi for me as I had a very early morning train and provided me with breakfast for my journey. Good recommendations given throughout my stay. Much appreciated and wishing you continued success with a Casa Cifali!

Credit goes to my wife for finding this gem of a B&B. It's difficult to find everything you want at a good price, but Dawn and Massimo exceeded every expectation, creating a truly personal experience. I've stayed in many B&Bs, but none with this level of genuine care. They are laid-back, down-to-earth, and make you feel at home while maintaining professionalism and offering a wealth of knowledge about Taormina. We received check-in details before our trip, and any questions were met with quick, helpful, and friendly responses, including advice on transfers. Our room was beautifully decorated, spacious, spotlessly clean, and maintained daily, with fresh linen every three days. Breakfast was plentiful, with fresh croissants, eggs, rolls, fruit, local cheeses, yoghurt, and coffee. The B&B has a few rooms and a communal kitchen where Dawn and Massimo prepare breakfast. Guests can also use facilities like a chilled, filtered water machine—a big plus on hot days. Upon arrival, we received detailed information about where to eat, what to see, and transport links, reflecting Dawn and Massimo's travel experience. Their passion for hosting and understanding guests' needs truly sets this place apart. The Sicilian dinner on the terrace sounded wonderful. We didn’t budget for it this time, but we’ll definitely return to experience it. Thank you, Dawn and Massimo, for bringing heart to our trip to Taormina. We can’t wait to stay with you again.

Dawn and Massimo were very friendly and helped us to organize the transport on the date of our arrival and departure. The location is excelent, as it is close to the inner city and the theatre. The room was good for two persons, the shower could have been a bit more spacecious. Casa Cifali also provides the opportunity to buy local wine, which is great if you don't want to leave the room in the late evening anymore. We did not take advantage of the breakfast very often, as we wanted to try out many different local shops. Moreover, casa cifali only offered instant coffee, which is sadly not sufficient for coffee lovers. Overall, our stay there was very pleasent & especially when taking the price into account we can recommend this place to anyone traveling on a low budget. If we ever go to Taormina again, Casa Cifali is where we would want to stay at.
