he Mediterranean-style Lido Caparena provides a comfortable, stylish and relaxed atmosphere for guests who prefer to stay by the beach while still being able to access Taormina via a hotel minibus service. Immersed in a sub-tropical garden are a swimming pool and children's pool surrounded by a sunbathing terrace whilst inside the hotel there is a new spa and wellness centre. An underpass is used to reach the private beach (separated from the hotel by a railway line), where a beachside bar serves drinks and snacks. The Lido Caparena is a sister hotel of the Villa Diodoro, enjoying the same high standard of quality. Set high on Sicily's Monte Tauro in picturesque natural beauty and commanding breathtaking views over two rugged bays below, Taormina has captured the imagination of great travellers and writers for many decades. It is widely considered the most beautiful town in Sicily with its semi-tropical palms, bougainvillea and orange trees. With its charming pedestrianised streets and small piazzas, it enjoys stunning views of the coast with Mount Etna rising in the distance.
In this delightful setting, ideal to be enjoyed in every season of the year, the luxurious resort on the beach offers the comfort of a first class hotel in a modern, efficient structure. Caparena Wellness Club was recently opened in July 2004, a magnificent and perfectly equipped health club on the sea.
The guest rooms, elegantly furnished in a warm Mediterranean style, are divided in Classic, Superior and Junior Suites. The Classic have a lovely garden view, while the Superior and Junior Suites have charming balconies overlooking directly onto a long private beach by a blue and emerald sea, amid flower gardens and the typical, luxuriant Sicilian landscape. |
