Porta del Vento is a great bed and breakfast in the Schisò area of Giardini Naxos. This makes its location excellent for reaching the beaches, main services, the archaeological park, the port, the bus stop (Dalmazia stop) with directions to Catania airport on one side and Taormina on the other. The house is beautiful, very clean and welcoming, with a garden and more than one terrace (one shared and the others belonging to the rooms). In the room where I stayed, there is also a mini-fridge. The owners are warm and ready to give you all the information you need for a great stay. Highly recommended.

Lovely place with a very warm welcome and special attention from the owners (Elisa and Alba), who made us feel very comfortable. Spacious, well-kept, and clean common areas. Very comfortable room. Located in a very accessible area to the beach, promenade, restaurants, buses, etc.

For a 4-day stopover in Giardini Naxos, we stayed at this wonderful property that satisfied us in every way. I must mention that I cannot evaluate the breakfast because we stayed in the independent suite without breakfast, providing for it independently. As for all other aspects, the judgment is extremely positive: strict and accurate cleanliness, spacious room furnished with taste, a truly large wardrobe, a neat, modern and comfortable bathroom, and a fully efficient kitchen. Above all, Elisa was patient and professional, both during the booking phase and on the day of our arrival, making herself available immediately. For the positive and very pleasant experience, I can only recommend without a doubt the Porta del Vento.

Everything perfect, Elisa is an excellent homeowner, very kind and helpful. The area is very central, which gives you the opportunity to avoid renting a car, also because it is well connected to other tourist locations with efficient and frequent buses. Thank you Elisa for your hospitality.

I can say that even though it was only for a few days, we had a great time. The lady welcomed us with a smile, which is essential, also advising us on places and restaurants to eat, giving us the opportunity to take away and consume it in the b&b, using the appliances we needed. The breakfast was to our liking and very rich. The location is quite good, allowing us to move around on foot both during the day and in the evening.

The great cordiality and kindness of the owners made the very short stay pleasant.

Elisa the owner, along with Mrs. Alba and her husband Pippo, are special people, always ready to pamper you and make you feel at home at any time of your day, from the rich breakfast with Sicilian products, fresh seasonal fruit, strictly offered from their orchard or nearby woods and cakes and jams prepared with care and love by Mrs. Alba, to afternoons on the terrace having pleasant conversations about everything and chilling together in complete relaxation, to the full and inexhaustible availability to satisfy every need of their guests. Their location is perfect because it's very central, overlooking the sea and the most fascinating and romantic stretch of coast you could desire, with Taormina brightly lit on the left and the tourist port on the right, and quiet because it's parallel to the street with the highest traffic and nightlife concentration, from which the structure is perfectly soundproofed. A wonderful vacation.. once again.

We just spent two weeks at 'Porta del Vento'. Everything was perfect. The property is a lovely house, located near the beach and very conveniently positioned near all the major attractions and restaurants. Each room is spacious and well appointed. Linens and towels are of high quality, as is the bathroom and toiletries, and the housekeeping is great. Breakfast was excellent and fresh every day. The hosts are convivial, charming and attentive while giving visitors total independence. We would recommend this to anybody traveling in the area, and we would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at this beautiful Bed and Breakfast with my daughter from August 26th to September 6th. Located by the sea, convenient to services, very clean. The breakfast was fantastic with all the delicacies prepared by Mrs. Alba, who with her company and friendliness made us feel at home. We thank the whole family for the wonderful holiday and for their availability, as well as for all the useful advice they provided. We will definitely be back very soon.

Dario and his family were excellent hosts. We spoke no Italian and his whole family made every effort to communicate with us throughout our stay. Dario provided a booklet of activities to do in the local area and helped us organise trips, one of the best being to see Mount Etna with his friend Luca. The B&B is right beside the beach and ideally located right beside several bus services. The room was super clean and you have use of a living area to which was an added bonus. Breakfast was fab, with freshly baked cakes and we tried the pistachio croissants. We will definitely be back to stay again.

La struttura si trova in una posizione molto centrale vicinissima al mare. La gestione è molto familiare ed la proprietaria è molto affabile e disponibile. Le camere non mancano del necessario e sono dotate anche di condizionamento. La colazione è molto varia. La difficoltà di parcheggio è ovviata da una convenzione con un parcheggio posto nelle vicinanze che consente con costi accessibili di lasciare l'auto in sosta 24/24h; è consigliabile avvisare il gestore del B&B all'atto della prenotazione in modo da non trovarsi sprovvisti del parcheggio.

Che dire, ottima posizione, ottima sistemazione in un contesto elegantemente arredato, ottima cortesia. Fortemente consigliato per qualsiasi periodo di soggiorno a Giardini Naxos.

Ottima accoglienza e cortesia e consigli per itinerari con indicazioni scritte.

La perfezione esiste, e qui l'ho trovata.

Abbiamo soggiornato in questa bella villa disposta su tre piani, il primo adibito a B&B con una bella sala a disposizione una cucina sempre aperta e ben fornita, terrazzi in comune e anche privati, a due passi dal mare, visibile dalla camera, e dal lungomare del passeggio. Il tutto immerso in un ambiante famigliare che ci faceva sentire a nostro agio, con belle chiaccherate mattutine e consigli sempre validi per noi turisti. Abbiamo trovato il meglio che potevamo aspettarci, bella posizione, casa pulita e ordinata, gustose colazioni, e soprattutto un ottima accoglienza. Un bel ricordo e un B&B da consigliare.

Per tre giorni mi sono ritrovato in famiglia, coccolato, guidato nelle mete turistiche, consigliato nei ristoranti. Colazione buonissima ed abbondante con paste alla ricotta appena sfornate. Se tornerò a Giardini Naxos so già dove alloggiare.

Sehr freundliche und aufmerksame Familie, die uns viele gute Tipps gab. Ein schönes B&B in guter Lage nah Catania, Taormina und Aetna. Sehr leckeres Frühstück mit mehreren selbstgemachten Marmeladen und jeden Tag frische Croissants vom Bäcker. Schöne Zimmer. In allem sehr empfehlenswert. Vielen Dank Dario und vielen Dank nochmal an die Mutter für das leckere Frühstück!

Ospitalità eccellente, calda e discreta. Posizione strategica nel centro della città, fronte lungomare, facilità di parcheggio. Camera accogliente e pulita; colazione nell' ampio soggiorno arredato con gusto. Eccellenti le marmellate confezionate dalla mamma della signora Elisa. Sembra di stare a casa propria. Complimenti e grazie.

Non è facile pensare di riuscire a sentirsi a casa a così tanta distanza, ma casa è dove c'e calore, umanità', partecipazione e alla Porta del Vento è casa. Ambiente raffinato e di piena comodità cone stanze ricercate con tutto quello che può servire a chi vuole avere un nido da cui spiccare il volo per tutte le meraviglie che attorniano Giardini Naxos. L'ambiente è gestito in piena accoglienza, con umanità e la possibilità di confrontarsi su svariati argomenti, dopo una giornata itinerante ricordo con affetto le chiacchiere fatte sul balcone annusando il mare. Pieno encomio alla gestione e all'ambiente che uno può ostinarsi a chiamare solo B&B, ma a cui io do il nome di casa.
