Lya was a wonderful host - informative and friendly; we really enjoyed talking with her in the morning at breakfast. Her B&B was lovely - beautifully decorated, super clean and comfortable. It was right across the road from the train station and bus stop so getting there from Catania was easy and getting around to Taormina, Giardini Naxos and other places on the bus (both the blue and the hop on hop off buses) was simple and cheap. We took the bus both during the day and in the evening and were very comfortable. A great place to stay - we wish we had planned to stay there longer.

A great location. Lya was a fantastic host, every morning she delighted us with a breakfast made of fresh bakery products and typical Sicilian jams. The location is excellent; close to the beaches as well as the center of Taormina, you can walk to the Giardini Naxos. In front of the B&B Agon *** there is both the train station and the bus stop from where you can go wherever you want. I highly recommend booking with Lya to be able to enjoy Taormina and its surroundings peacefully without the stress of the car.

I have just returned from an 8-day vacation in the wonderful Sicily, I had the opportunity to stay at the B&B Agon in Taormina/Villagonia for 8 nights. The B&B is strategically located between the center of Taormina, the Giardini Naxos, the fabulous Isola Bella, it is easily accessible by car and train, a few steps away is the Taormina Giardini station, where you can take a train and be in Messina and Catania in an hour, and in 2 hours in Siracusa. Mrs. Lya, the B&B manager, is an exquisite person, available at any time like the rest of her staff: unforgettable her breakfast with granita and brioche.

When we come back, we will definitely try to get a B&B room from the landlady Lya again. We really enjoyed the 2 days. The nearby pebble beach is great and the water is crystal clear.

A wonderful stay, due to the beauty of magical Sicily and the kindness and courtesy of the owner, prepared, professional, and available to provide valuable advice on the tourist and culinary attractions of Giardini Naxos and Taormina. The strategic location of the structure (in front of the Giardini Naxos station) has facilitated all kinds of movements. I will come back!

Heartfelt thanks to Lya, a wonderful person, for allowing me to spend an unforgettable holiday. The B&B Agon *** is delightful, super clean, tastefully furnished, and located in an excellent location (5 minutes away, by bus, from Taormina and Isola Bella). The bus stop is in front of the B&B. At the same stop, buses pass to Catania airport, it can't get more convenient than this! Every morning you are welcomed by the warmth and friendliness of Lya, who pampers her guests with rich and delicious breakfasts. What can I say... I will return to this wonderful land and stay at this B&B: I highly recommend it to anyone. I was traveling alone: I felt at home and even better. A big hug, Lya.

Scegliete loro, punto.
Struttura pulitissima, davanti a fermata degli autobus ed alla stazione ff. ss. nonché dei taxi. Si attraversa la strada e si è al mare.
Gestori squisiti. Vi consiglieranno i posti migliori, come muovervi, cosa visitare e vi indicheranno tutto ciò di cui avete bisogno.
Colazione mega. È come stare a casa, davvero.
Uno degli aspetti della vacanza che si ricorda con piacere.
Grandi!
