Overlooking the bay of Mazzaro, an idyllically located place on the water edge, amidst  lush, sub-tropical gardens, that gently slope down to the private beach, the Villa Sant'Andrea, is a charming villa hotel, built in 1830 by an aristocratic British family. Since the 1950's when it became one of the most exclusive hotels  in Taormina, it has shined among others,  conserving  the charm of an antique and noble private residence.  Its guestrooms and suites are all well  lit and comfortable, with elegant furnishings and decorations each one different from the other and some with  sea-view  from  terraces or balconies.
With the stunning setting of the sunset in the horizon, guests can relax with a drink in the outside terrace. Also they can enjoy local specialties at  the Sant'Andrea restaurant, or  a sophisticated à la carte menu, in a romantic candle lit supper at  the Oliviero restaurant. For an after hours evening,  the piano bar, open until late at night, plays sweet after-dinner music. 
Whether it is for its precious paintings or antiques,  that embellish the interior and make it unique in its style,  or for  its great care in details,  it is certain that since the beginning, this hotel has drawn many artists, intellectuals and important people to it. Once and again they have returned for another elegant, unforgettable vacation.
