Sicily for the Soul – Solo Stay in Taormina
7 Nights | A soul-soothing Sicilian stay in charming Taormina

Why I Chose This for You
Not every solo traveller wants a group tour or packed itinerary – sometimes we just need space to breathe. This little gem in Taormina offers exactly that. It’s affordable, beautiful, safe, and full of warmth. Whether you want to explore ancient ruins, lounge on the beach or sip wine on a terrace with a view, Taormina gives you the freedom to do it your way.
About this Trip
Welcome to your dream base in the heart of Taormina — a family-run B&B that has been welcoming solo travellers with open arms since 1968.
If you’re longing for Italian charm, sweeping sea views and the warmth of local hospitality, this gem offers the perfect blend of tranquillity and convenience. Just 200 metres from Taormina’s historic centre, you’ll be steps from the Greek-Roman Theatre, the town’s flower-filled piazza, and the cable car to the beach.
This isn’t a tour — it’s your time, your way. A relaxed, independent break with everything you need taken care of, plus the option to extend into a tailor-made Italian adventure.
