Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Messina

Great apartment for our three-night stay. Marco’s friendly welcome and helpful tips on what to see and do was appreciated, as was the bottle of cold white wine which went down a treat after navigating those crazy streets! Marco showed us the car park and then delivered our bags to the foot of the stairs to the apartment. The view is incredible, the apartment clean and comfortable. We appreciated the two bathrooms and washing machine. Easy walking distance to the main town and a short uphill hike on the way back to help digest all the good food and gelato. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Love this place. Superb balcony with great views and lots of space. Comfortable inside. Seconds to the beach and 5 minutes walk to the Funicular up to central Taormina. Host was great and even let us check out late.

You could not find a better place to stay in Taormina, close to everything yet quiet & peaceful when you needed a break - the house itself is exquisite & Laura is the loveliest host. Big call, but Casa Oasi goes close to being the best AirBnB we’ve ever stayed in 😘

Filippo’s home I Scilla is perfectly located atop the very middle of the town between the beach side and fishing village side- with the upper part just above you. It’s a bit of a climb, but this allows a gorgeous view of the sea and coastline below. You are also close to everything you could want to do. There is a lovely balcony outside the door, which that view, and is perfect for taking a break with coffee or a drink in the afternoon or evening. The bathroom is very nice and modern. Main bedroom is nice and big with a comfy bed. The kitchen is medium sized, with enough space to cook if you want to. The town was a real favorite for us. We spent 2 days at the beach at our favorite lido- so easy and relaxing. The fishing village has some real gems, including a natural wine bar with the friendliest owner and a wine/food bar next door to the natural one, that was absolutely delicious. There are many restaurants with dining areas literally on the water, which was very different and fun

Had a wonderful time. The place is beautiful with a lovely kitchen area and spacious terrace, nice and comfortable bed, great amenities. We appreciated the quiet/peace and the amazing view the most 😍. Thank you Lorella 😊

Heaven on Earth! The accommodation is so beautiful and unique. The house is located on a mountain surrounded by nature and tranquility. It is equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed every second there. The view is simply breathtaking. Alfredo is a wonderful host. Thank you for this amazing stay!

Thank you to our host, welcoming and available. He sent us the bus schedules. Her apartment is very very clean, good location and nice. Thanks

We had a very good time. We especially enjoyed the view from the balcony. Giulia and Marco were always approachable and helped us directly with inquiries.

My stay at this Airbnb was excellent. The place is comfortable, clean and well located. In addition, the owner is very kind and always available for any need. I would definitely recommend it and would be happy to go back.

The access to the accommodation was a bit surprising at the end of May as you have to drive through a small stream to get to the end of the road. The entrance to the free underground garage is also a bit bumpy and it is recommended to unload the car beforehand at the apartment if it does not have high tires. But once you arrive, the accommodation is really impeccable with a beautiful view of the sea. You can hear the sea rushing at night and can sleep with the window open without hesitation. You can also get to the beach directly from the apartment via a small staircase. The place was one of the cleanest I've ever experienced. The unfortunately often neglected mocha pot for making coffee was really clean. You can easily reach all public transport as well as small bakeries and shops on foot. Since you can use a free parking space, excursions by car are always easy. The place is really highly recommended.

Paola father is very helpful and came to pick us when we were lost in the town

Mimmos Airbnb is an experience and definitely the apartment with the best view of Scilla. The communication with Mimmo was perfect, and he provided us with milk, cereal and more for breakfast which was really kind! Everything was super clean and the apartment is just a short walk from the city! Would stay here again for sure!

Livios place is a hidden gold mine in Stazzo. It was so perfect for what we wanted. A peaceful balcony by the sea with access to the water and a view of Etna. Livio was kind, warm, and insightful. He explained the village to us and even provided a helpful map of where to go. We would recommend to anyone and will be returning soon (we hope!!)

Marco and Antonio were amazing hosts, the place is tucked away but an informative YouTube video that Antonio provided was super easy to follow and then Marco met us on the beach to let us in. The place is amazing and immaculately decorated with a super comfy bed. The location is just perfect and peaceful and the beach is gorgeous for a relaxing beach day. There are many lovely restaurants down in Mazzarò but it’s very easy to reach the cable car and travel up to Taormina. It was lovely to hear the live singer from the hotel next to us in the evenings when we sat out on the balcony. It may not be suitable for those with limited mobility and there were quite a few stairs involved in getting to the apartment.

Our stay in Taormina was absolutely unforgettable, and Sabrina's Airbnb was a true highlight of our trip. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to the city center, yet tucked away enough to enjoy peace and quiet. The views from the property were breathtaking, and we found ourselves pausing often just to take them in. The space itself was beautifully decorated, with thoughtful touches that made it feel both elegant and welcoming. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base during our time in Sicily. Highly recommend!

Phenomenal views. Pristine and well kept apartment. Massive sunny balcony. Air conditioners in all major rooms were excellent. WiFi is excellent. Great restaurants, bakery, small grocer and barber within 50 meters. Only caveats: 1. make sure you are ok with stairs 2. If you rent a car, street parking is the only option

Alba was the perfect host and looked after us so very well. Of note: the Calabrian eggs for breakfast were delicious. The balcony area was the perfect place to relax and enjoy watching the ocean life of Scilla.

Everything from the booking to check in and recommendations was great!!! But the best part was the view. 5 stars…we loved our stay and already want to return

Great apartment with everything you need to enjoy your holiday. Perfect beach location. Restaurants and supermarket very close. Maria is a great host, making you feel very welcome ready for your Sicilian adventure.

Lovely apartment though quite a lot of stairs to second floor so tough with luggage Great location, beautiful surrounds Everything we needed

Andrea was a wonderful host! His Airbnb was just as pictured, very clean, felt like home. It’s in the perfect location for the area, not directly in the hustle and bustle providing privacy and peace but still only a few short minute walks to everything. The bed was very comfortable and the AC worked REALLY well. The best part of this Airbnb was meeting his adorable mom who loves to chat in Italian (we don’t speak a word) and her sweet dog Molly.

We had a lovely time staying in Taormina in Federica’s home. The apartment is a 10 minute walk from the bus station and was very easy to find. The apartment is modern and felt very homely immediately. Loads of restaurants all within a 5-10 minute walk and it was so easy to get down to the beach! Would absolutely recommend staying here.

A cozy and bright house, with independent spaces and a small terrace where you can breathe in the silence and sunbathe. A perfect bed to make peace with city insomnia... It was really nice to spend 5 days between remote work and relaxation in this apartment that day after day became a bit like home. Hard to leave.

As is often the case, the pictures of the view don't come close to the actual view we enjoyed during our stay. Absolutely breathtaking! The apartment was nicely appointed and around a 15 minute walk to the core town activities of Taormina. The owners of the apartment live upstairs and were a joy to get to know. If you love dogs, their sweet Papaya will become your new best friend. Our hosts were very responsive and even brought us some sweet lemon mousse (and shared the recipe!) for us to enjoy. I am quite certain we will be visiting Taormina again, as it is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and I will definitely look to stay here again.
