Resort Borgo San Rocco

Absolutely wonderful resort. I have never experienced hospitality like this in a hotel. You arrive as a guest & leave feeling like a family member. The owner Vittorio is a warm, interesting man. All the staff are so friendly & welcoming. The food is exceptional. The location & views are unsurpassed. An amazing experience.

Our second visit (Certainly not our last) to this wonderful hotel just confirmed our initial thoughts when we first visited in August this year, Mr Vittorio is a truly amazing host, His Son Francesco and all their staff follow his lead with a genuine warm hospitality not found too often. Nothing is to much trouble, There was somebody at reception ( Francesca, Alexandra, Christian) always available to assist and help with all the enquiries / questions we had during our stay. Hotel is in a very tranquil setting ( a short walk to the village centre) It is very clean in all areas, Rooms are spacious and cleaned daily and well kept. Breakfast is typical continental style, Fresh and with great coffee, Evening menu is changed daily, The food is cooked to order and is Beautifully presented, Wonderful and fresh, Wine choice is amazing, There is a Lovely terrace to the front of the hotel where meals drinks can be taken when weather permits. The swimming pool is a short walk downhill from the hotel with plenty of beds spread around. Savoca itself is a charming hill side village with amazing views over to Mount Etna, The Village was chosen for a few scenes in the original Godfather film, Bar Vitelli and the church of San Nicolo are now tourist hot spots. Dioniso Wine shop/bar is a great spot for a high quality wine stop, With the owner Andrea full of information and guidance on Sicilian wine. There are a few other restaurants, cafes and shops in the village.

Beautiful hotel. We had a gorgeous triple aspect room. The pool is excellent, be it that sunbed cushions are very scarce and need fixing. The restaurant is atmospheric and the food very good on the whole. The staff however make the place, they are so warm and friendly. It’s a boutique home from home quirky hotel well worth a visit to stay with Vittorio and his family….

Something quite special about this haven in the hills above Taormina. Peaceful, spectacular, charming, delightful, restful… I could go on. The staff are so kind, warm, sparkly and engaging. Everything at Borgo San Rocco simply makes you feel happy. We are a family of five with ‘kids’ aged 17, 21 & 24 and they absolutely loved it - won’t stop talking about the experience. FOOD - amazing, so we ended up eating at the hotel restaurant virtually every night. And as for the lady making fresh sandwiches and salads by the pool - delicious!! Thank you Borgo San Rocco, we will be back, for sure!

What a find this gorgeous hotel resort high up in Savoca. After a slightly hair raising journey ( very narrow roads, don’t go in a wide car) We arrived at a tranquil haven, nothing was too much trouble all the staff were super friendly and very helpful. Our room was lovely and big with a great terrace overlooking the church. The only downside was the air conditioning wasn’t quite strong enough and turned off when the key card was taken out. We had a fan which helped otherwise we would have been too hot. The pool is beautiful with a bar and small restaurant for a drink or snack. The views are to die for, breakfast is lovely and they have a lovely restaurant for an evening meal which looked very good. We will definitely return here as it is so peaceful and friendly

One of the best places we have ever stayed. The staff and the owner Don Vito became family in the shortest of time, Breakfast was magic, Rosaria and Sandra spoil you with their friendly service, Francesca, Alexandra and Cristian are there to tell you about anything you wish to know about the places to go to or to eat. The chef is amazing and Davide will look after you every night in the restaurant. Finally Don Vittorio will spoil you every night, a great Gentleman. Cannot recommend enough, we are going back in September. Wonderful place. Word of advice: Take the SP19, and not the other roads!
