The hotel boasts beautifully designed rooms that perfectly suit the setting, with a unique two-story layout featuring complete bathrooms on both floors, making for a delightful stay. However, the service could use some improvement, lacking the expected cheerfulness. The location offers spectacular views of Mount Etna and the bay of Giardini Naxos, but the inconvenience of separated buildings may hinder sauna access before massages. The dining experience is excellent with a fabulous buffet and local cured meats and cheeses. Overall, the property is exceptional but has some minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely amazing! The rooms were perfect for families and had a lower-tiered feel but were impressively spacious with 2 bathrooms, lofted beds, a living area, and a balcony with stunning sea and Mt Etna views. The housekeeping was top-notch, although I did notice a slight decrease in service compared to my previous visit. The little service touches like Evian mist by the pool and fresh granitas were delightful. The piano and sunset views were the cherry on top of a wonderful experience.

Staying at Villa Flora was an incredible experience overall. The rooms were simply amazing with great views and spacious layouts, but having two complete bathrooms was a real luxury. The service exceeded my expectations in every aspect, going the extra mile with a friendly and service-minded approach. The location, although a bit inconvenient in terms of accessing some facilities, was still lovely with its Mediterranean vibe and beautiful surroundings. The dining options were superb, especially the magical setting overlooking the bay and Mount Etna. However, the separation of some areas was a minor inconvenience. Overall, a wonderful stay with a few minor drawbacks.
