Grand Hotel Timeo will open on 2nd May until 30th November 2025. Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina places guests on Sicily’s breathtaking front row. Carved into the hilltop alongside the ancient Greek Theatre, this classical villa became Taormina’s first hotel in 1873. A Grand Tour favorite among young intellectuals, the hotel went on to attract a wealth of artists and aristocrats. Writers from DH Lawrence to Truman Capote and cinematic greats from Greta Garbo to Federico Fellini came to experience the timeless Sicilian glamour. The spellbinding views of Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea continue to inspire luminaries from around the world today.
Timeo’s six acres of gardens are nestled between natural cascading terraces of bougainvillea, orange blossoms and geraniums. Guests can retreat here to cool off in the scenic swimming pool, enjoy an indulgent treatment in Le Jardin des Rêves Dior spa and linger over gourmet picnics on the manicured lawns. Beautiful, sun-filled rooms and suites are furnished in Sicilian Baroque style, including the signature Floresta Suite with its magnificent terrace and jacuzzi boasting hypnotic sea views.
The dining scene is exceptional, from the Michelin-starred cuisine at Otto Geleng and the Sicilian specialties served at Ristorante Timeo to the succulent grilled delicacies at Timeo Grill. Every evening should begin or end with a sublime cocktail on the panoramic Literary Terrace.
Guests are welcome to take the complimentary shuttle to sister hotel Villa Sant’Andrea to enjoy the exclusive beach club, Lido Villeggiatura, on the Bay of Mazzarò. Further inspiring activities include tours of Taormina by Ape Calessino, wine tastings on Mount Etna and rare access to noble palaces and artists’ studios in baroque Noto.
