The outdoor pool and terrace
The outdoor swimming pool sits alongside a sun deck and terrace with outdoor furniture and a patio area. There is also an outdoor fireplace and a picnic area, giving the grounds a usable outdoor space beyond just the pool itself.
Sea views from room and balcony
The 40 m² room has a balcony and patio, both with sea views. On a clear day the outlook extends across the water. The room also takes in garden views, so the aspect shifts depending on where you sit.
Kitchen setup and self-catering
Each room has a full private kitchen with a stovetop, oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, and coffee machine. Kitchenware and cleaning products are included — a practical setup for guests who want control over at least some of their meals.
Outdoor dining and barbecue
The property has a dedicated outdoor dining area alongside BBQ facilities, which pairs with the self-catering kitchen setup. The picnic area and outdoor furniture extend the usable space for meals taken outside.

Arriving in Taormina
VILLA ZEN TAORMINA is 47.3 km from Catania Airport (CTA). The nearest intercity station is Taormina-Giardini, about 2.6 km away. Taormina operates a ZTL limited-traffic zone in its historic centre, where cameras issue automatic fines to unauthorised vehicles. This property lists parking; properties inside a zone can usually register a guest's plate, so confirm access and arrival time before driving in. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
