FAQ – Villa Donna Grazia (Savoca, Taormina area) | Scent of Sicily
Where is Villa Donna Grazia in Sicily?
Villa Donna Grazia is in the countryside around Savoca, in the Taormina area, surrounded by citrus groves.
This inland part of Sicily offers a peaceful setting. You can easily return to Taormina to visit the Greek Theatre, explore markets, or have dinner by the sea.
The villa is modern and comfortable. It sleeps 6, with 3 double bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including 3 en suite. Bedrooms and main living spaces are air-conditioned. Outside, the infinity saltwater pool has a built-in whirlpool corner for relaxing afternoons and late swims.
Is Villa Donna Grazia family-friendly?
Yes, it’s ideal for families who want space, private areas, pool time, and easy access to Taormina.
The villa sleeps 6, with 3 double bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Three bathrooms are en suite, so everyone has more privacy in the mornings. Bedrooms and main ground-floor living areas are air-conditioned, which helps after hot days at the beach on the Ionian coast.
There is also a service bathroom with a washing machine, helpful for longer stays. The infinity saltwater pool includes a whirlpool corner, so adults can relax while kids stay nearby.

On the ground floor, the living room, dining area, and American-style kitchen open directly onto the pool and solarium. The double bedroom on this floor also has air conditioning. Upstairs, the 2 en-suite double bedrooms are air-conditioned and each has a dressing room.

For villas chosen for privacy, exclusivity, and comfort, explore our exclusive luxury villas in Sicily.
What are the infinity pool details?
The villa has a private infinity saltwater pool with a built-in whirlpool corner and open countryside views.
The pool measures 11.5 m x 4.5 m, with depth from 1.20 m to 1.65 m. A salt plant develops chlorine, supporting the saltwater system.
The pool is usually open from Easter to the end of October, covering the main travel season around Taormina.
The pool area connects directly to the ground floor, so it is easy to move between sun loungers, shade, and air-conditioned rooms.
One important safety note: do not walk or run on the overflow edge.
How many bedrooms and bathrooms?
Villa Donna Grazia sleeps 6, with 3 double bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including 3 en suite.
On the ground floor, there is 1 double bedroom with air conditioning, a shower bathroom, and a dressing room. The same level also has a service bathroom with a washing machine, handy if you pack light or stay longer.
Stairs lead to the first floor, where the 2 remaining double bedrooms are en suite. Each upstairs room has air conditioning, a dressing room, and a shower bathroom.
This layout works well for friends travelling together, since everyone gets privacy without splitting the house into separate wings.

Which day trips from Savoca?
Savoca is a calm base for Taormina, the Ionian coast, Mount Etna, and the Alcantara Gorges.
Taormina is an easy day out for the Greek Theatre, the old streets, and a sunset aperitivo. For the sea, aim for the Ionian bays around Giardini Naxos and Isola Bella, then return to the hills for quiet evenings. Etna is a strong contrast in summer: cooler air, volcanic trails, and winery stops on the slopes. The Alcantara Gorges suit a half-day escape when you want river walks and basalt walls instead of beach time.
What is the weekly price range?
Weekly rates are typically between EUR 3,945 and EUR 5,740, depending on dates and season.
Prices rise in peak summer, especially July and August, when the Taormina area is busiest. Better-value weeks often sit in the shoulder months, with warm days and quieter evenings in the Savoca hills. When comparing weeks, look beyond the headline: air conditioning in bedrooms and living areas matters in hot periods, and the private infinity saltwater pool with a whirlpool corner changes the pace. The 3 en suite bathrooms also make sharing easier for couples or friends.

Nous avons passé une semaine formidable dans Villa Donna Grazia. Emplacement idéal pour explorer les environs, à deux pas de Taormina et Savoca. La maison est confortable, la piscine très agréable, et Onofrio, notre hôte, a été particulièrement attentionné. Un endroit parfait pour ceux qui apprécient tranquillité et nature.
Pailine Hamilton
We spent an amazing week at Villa Donna Grazia and can’t recommend it enough. Onofrio, our host, was incredibly welcoming, providing essentials, helpful tips, and even warm arancini on our late arrival. The villa is spacious, well equipped, and the outdoor area with its pool is fantastic for relaxing swims. It’s in a peaceful rural setting, just a few minutes from supermarkets and the seafront, and about 25–30 minutes from Taormina. Exceptional hospitality—this was one of our best villa stays, and we will definitely return!
Asya Slutskaya - Service Review
Our group of five spent one week in villa Donna Grazia from June 22 to June 29, and it was truly a wonderful experience. The house is spotless, spacious, and well-suited for families or groups of friends. It offers all the comforts of home and is located in a peaceful area with no disturbances. The sea and a clean, beautiful beach are just about 13 minutes away by car. If you're looking for a quiet, well-equipped place to relax and unwind in Sicily, this villa is a perfect choice. Highly recommended

Villa Donna Grazia was perfect for our week in Sicily. Just over an hour from Catania airport, we were warmly welcomed with fresh local snacks. The host was incredibly responsive and even brought breakfast one morning. The villa was spacious and beautifully designed, with a stunning pool and great barbecue area. It’s a perfect base for exploring spots like Taormina, Etna, and Syracuse. Truly a relaxing and memorable stay.

Our stay at Villa Donna Grazia was exceptional from start to finish. Alessandra and Viviana at Scent of Sicily made booking effortless, and the villa itself was comfortable and high-quality. Meeting the owner, Onofrio, and his wife Donna was a true pleasure—they went above and beyond by connecting us with local chefs, securing reservations, and sharing insider tips. Despite our delayed luggage, Onofrio kindly offered to collect it for us, and one morning he even brought us a delightful Sicilian breakfast. The highlight was relaxing by the pool, surrounded by the peaceful sounds of the Sicilian countryside. For those concerned about water access due to drought, this villa is in a zone with no restrictions—so you can relax worry-free.

Villa Donna Grazia exceeded all our expectations—a modern, luxurious space with every comfort for a perfect summer break. The host was thoughtful and always available without ever being intrusive. We loved the private pool and the great location, close to the beach and towns like Savoca and Taormina. Scent of Sicily was equally outstanding, offering continuous support before, during, and after our stay. Highly recommended!

We just returned from Villa Donna Grazia and it was fantastic. The villa was of excellent quality, and the owners welcomed us warmly—even with hot food after a late arrival. It's perfectly located near Taormina and Savoca, with a train nearby for visiting Syracuse. Onofrio was a wonderful host—always available and incredibly helpful.

We had a fantastic week at Villa Donna Grazia. The owner welcomed us warmly with fresh local food and even surprised us with brioche and granita for breakfast. The villa was spacious, spotless, and perfect for our group of three couples, with amazing views from the hillside. We also enjoyed a delicious Sicilian dinner prepared at the villa. Great location for visiting Savoca, Taormina, and Catania by train.
