Holidays in Taormina

Holidays in Taormina offer an intoxicating slice of La Dolce Vita. Perched above two picture-perfect bays on Sicily's eastern coast, this historic town is the island's best-known resort and comes laden with charm, colour and beach life.

Beautifully located on Mount Tauro with Mount Etna brooding in the background, its location is knock 'em dead stuff – a breathtaking collage of mountains, azure seas and dramatic cliffs topped by a magnificent Greco-Roman amphitheatre. Dating back to the 3rd century BC, this stunning edifice overlooks the coast and is one of the chief attractions of a Taormina holiday.

When you can drag yourself away from the main Mazarro beach area and restaurant-lined waterfront, Taormina's quaint side streets, overflowing with boutiques, shops and cafes, provide more delight. And at dusk, summer holidays in Taormina mean dipping into sparkling restaurants, romantic candlelit bars or dancing till dawn at one of the handful of nightclubs. Cap it all by staying at an elegant Thomson property like the Hotel Bristol Park and you could hardly wish for more.

So why wait? Thomson can help you make the most of this unforgettable place with late deals, all-inclusive getaways, upmarket hotels and cheaper self-catering holidays to Taormina … all for your delectation.
