Residence Schuler - Apartment 'C' with sea and Mount Etna view

This apartment is part of the Residence Schuler with garden and open view to the sea and Mount Etna, located on a small hill in a residential area in Taormina only 4 minutes walking distance from central Corso Umberto (pedestrian area of Taormina), and 3 minutes only from the supermarket and the nearest restaurants.
The apartment "C" has a size of 163 square meters. (1755 sq. ft.) with a terrace of 38 square meters (409 sq. ft.), and consists of: 2 large double bedrooms and one small bedroom with 2 single beds, 2 bathrooms, a spacious kitchen, a large living room and a terrace over viewing the sea and Mt. Etna. Provided with heating, air conditioner, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave ovens, WiFi, telephone, satellite TV, safe, hairdryer, toaster ,coffee maker, ironing equipment.
Baby coat and baby chair are available on request.
Taxi service from the airport to the apartment is available on request at the price of 100 Euro for maximum 5 passengers, from 6 to 8 persons with a minibus at the price of 130 Euro.
Parking Information:
Inside of the Residence we have a small parking area for 2 cars and on request a space can be reserved at the price of 10 Euro a day, otherwise is possible to park in the 24/7 municipal multi-storey car park of Porta Catania which is located just before the entrance of Taormina and at a 5 minutes walking distance from the apartment. Due the narrow roads of Taormina and our own small parking area, for clients arriving with big cars we suggest this last solution.

I live in one apartment of the Residence, I will be here on your arrival and during your stay I will be always available for information’s and any kind of assistance.

Outstanding stay, great views, lovely accommodation
A fantastic stay as a family of 5 from 10 to 76 yrs old. Amazing views from the large terrace and master bedroom. Lovely clean accommodation and great communication before and during the stay. There are some steps into town but very close. Loved the walk up the steps to the top of Taormina for sunset views across Etna. Already recommending to friends and family.

Amazing Stay
The property exceeded our expectation. The views of Sea and Mt Etna are spectacular. Claudio was attentive, informative, warm and friendly. He made sure we had all the information we needed to have a memorable stay at Schuler Residence. The property has beautiful terraces. Close to town, but quiet and safe at night. Taormina Center was easy to reach on foot. Lots of restaurants, pasticcerie, gelaterie and wonderful shops within walking distance. I hope to stay there again. Grazie Claudio

Great location, amazing view but don’t bring a car
The property was located in a great part of town and only a short walk (via stairs) to the Main Street and close to the supermarket. The property was clean and has a big balcony area that has a memorable outlook. The middle bedroom with 2 single beds has no air conditioning and isn’t a big space. It’s a tight squeeze for 2 adults. While there’s parking advertised it’s an extra fee and if you don’t book it early it may not be available. The public parking garage is expensive and may not have space if an event is on.

What a view!!
Villa is just as beautiful as in the photos, but the view is so much more spectacular in real life. So much so that we even opted to stay in for dinners so we could dine on the balcony and soak it all in. The spacious layout was idea for our big group (4 adults, 1 teen and 2 children). We had everything we needed in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom. Location wise, it seemed a little far to walk to the funicular initially but once we knew the best route, it was fine. Indeed, by the end of our time in Taormina, we all agreed that it was a great homebase - close to the shops, restaurants, old town, relatively easy access to the beach, and still high enough to enjoy a clear view of Mr Etna, the water and the sparkle from the stars in the sky to the lights on the land. Communication with the host before and during our stay was excellent. He even jumped on this scooter to rescue us when we got lost trying to find the place on arrival:) Only negative thing was that the 3rd bedroom did not have air conditioning. Other than that, we loved our experience here and would happily recommend it to others. Thank you for everything Claudio!

Beautiful view - spacious apartment
We are a family of five and stayed at Villa Schuler Apartment C. The apartment was exactly as we expected (with the exception of the third bedroom not having airconditioning). The host Claudio was very easy to communicate with and was there to meet us when we arrived. He made an effort to provide a few extra things like washing powder, dish detergent, paper towels etc which was very much appreciated. The apartment was very clean and spacious with everything we needed for a lovely stay. The location is close to a supermarket and the top end of the old town but it is quite a long way to the beach. There is a big set of steps to get to the supermarket and town so probably not suitable for those who have trouble with stairs. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this apartment. The view from the terrace is fabulous. Thank you Claudio.

Beautiful Sea View Villa In Taormina
We had an incredible stay at Residence Schuler, apartment C. The villa is very large and has beautiful classic Italian furniture in each room. A very spacious kitchen that was filled with every amenity we needed. We loved being able to have breakfast and enjoy afternoon happy hours on this stunning, sprawling terraces with the most beautiful view of the sea. Large floor to ceiling windows in the living room and master bedroom. Also allowed us to enjoy the beautiful views from those rooms from the inside. We found the beds and bedding very comfortable! - [ ] When you exit the flat and go to the right about one block, then there is a short steep driveway down to a staircase, and after a total of about a three minute walk you are right in the center of town. It was absolutely perfect. Claudio, the owner was a great host. We corresponded with him before our trip several times to ask him questions, and he always had fast helpful responses. He arranged for a car service for us from Catania airport upon our arrival at 10 PM from a driver named Carmelo, and that worked out great too. We ended up utilizing Carmelo several times during our stay in Taormina, and we were happy we did, as the streets are particularly windy and maze-like. We were so close to town, it was easier not to have a car, although the Villa does have a parking space for us to have had one. Great AC, WiFi, a smart TV, bookshelf with lots of books, lounge chairs, washing machine. We really loved this Villa!

Exactly as advertised
Our family of four adults and two infants thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Taormina. Residence Schuler is a very comfortable accommodation with great views from the very large terraces. The Mt. Etna view is really impressive. Corso Umberto is only a five minute walk. Claudio is a great host who went well out of his way to accommodate our needs.

we had a great time in Sicily-we loved the view and were happy we could park our car at the apartment. the one issue we had was that we had a lot of difficulty getting to the residence since the easiest route that was approximately 1/10 of a mile was a one-way street so we had to go around the town that took 15 minutes and got lost almost every time we left the apartment.

Edge of Taormina comfort
Our particular rental space at Residence Schuler had three bedrooms and two full baths. One of the bedrooms is fitted with two separate single beds, good for one other adult or two kids. The apartment is very well appointed with everything you’d need for an extended stay, with a full size refrigerator and all of the kitchen equipment your need for eating in if you wish. The furniture is very comfortable and the apartment is very clean, something that we can all appreciate. We spent most of our time on the shaded terrace, enjoying the stunning views of the coastline and Mt Etna. It’s a great spot all day long, from breakfast or for an after dinner drink. It’s in a really great location, just steps from Taormina’s main grocery store, and just beyond that the Catania gate entrance to the pedestrian only part of town with all of the shopping and restaurants. But being where it is located just outside of the Catania gate, it is just far enough to give you a quiet spot to retreat to after you’ve had enough of the crowds. We intend to return here next year, and that’s the best endorsement I can give! Claudio Schuler was a gracious host, seemingly always available to answer any questions you have about the property or questions you have in general about getting around Taormina.

A marvelous perch in Taormina
This is a magnificent property perched just about the center of Taormina, with a capacious outdoor terrace offering stunning views of the coastline, the town below and of Mount Etna. Our host, Claudio, was outstanding in every way, punctual, responsive and very personable. The apartment was perfectly clean, a very comfortable refuge to which to return after a long day of rambling. Will be thinking about returning to this magical place once again, someday!

Beautiful condo overlooking the ocean
Claudio was the owner of the property. He was there to greet us and show us around the condo. The beds were clean and comfortable. It was spacious with great spaces. The view looking at the ocean from the deck was spectacular. Suggestions: if you rent a car then try and get a small one so it will fit better in Claudio’s space. If you come in on a Sunday, all the food stores are closed. I am not sure if claudio would do this but maybe ask him if he could pick up a few things for you. He also does not supply any shampoo conditioner or soap for the shower. There is only a small washing machine but he supplies a rack to hang your clothing which we didn’t mind at all. If we had any questions, Claudio was always available. We would stay there again.

The property far exceeded our expectations. Great location; stunning view.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 1 week stay at Schuler Residence in Taormina. Perhaps the only item that could have improved our stay would have been a list of where to find the local bakery, market and meat/fish stores etc. (they are not in the ‘tourist’ area). We would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is going to visit Taormina .
