Taormina
Casa Turchetti ★★★★
Hidden away yet in the heart of Taormina is
the beautiful Casa Turchetti. Built in the late
1800s this historic house takes its name from
the “Maestro Turchetti” who as a piano tutor
turned it into a house for musicians. Having
recently been totally renovated each of the
6 individually styled rooms are uniquely
furnished to the highest standard boasting the
finest linens, antique and hand-crafted furniture
all lovingly sourced with great attention to
detail taking care to retain the character of its
origin. It has a stunning roof-top terrace with Casa Turchetti
breathtaking views of the bay and Mout Etna.
Family owned, Casa Turchetti offers the warmest
of hospitality, including a most lavish Sicilian
buffet breakfast with tempting homemade
delicacies served on the panoramic terrace.
