We stayed here for 5 wonderful nights in the height of summer as a family of 5.
We all loved this hotel - it’s setting is stunning and it overlooks a private bay just along from Taormina beach. The hotel is literally carved out of the cliff face and the corridors of the hotel are hewn out of the rock itself giving it a magical feel. The rooms themselves are rustic but well appointed and pretty and our rooms on the 6th floor had stunning views across the bay from their balconies.
The pool and beach area are beautifully kept and designed and we spend many sunny hours by the sea, on the comfortable chairs. The sea by the hotel is calm and crystal clear and you can snorkel around the area and watch the fish on shallow and deeper water.
The staff here are all excellent and we felt very much looked after in every area - reception, the restaurants (also excellent, I will write a separate review), the bars and pool/beach area.
The cable car to Taormina is close by and the easiest way to visit the town. The hotel can even provide tickets for the cash price.
My only issue was the aircon in the room and in the gym. The room aircon can’t quite cope with the heat of the day stored in the rock of the room so it’s slightly too warm in the evening but plenty cool enough by the AM. And the aircon in the gym just can’t cope with the all glass construction so expect your work out to have stunning views but but be pretty hot and sweaty.
It’s not cheap in any area but this is a stunning and original hotel with a wonderful staff and views to die for. Highly recommended.

Very pretty hotel. Rooms are very nice and have a lovely view. I’d recommend the 6th floor. Amazing beach and beach chairs to sit on. Great pool also. It takes a while to get up to the main town however but other than that it is very nice

My stay at the Atlantis Bay Hotel of the V-Retreats chain in Taormina was a true dream. This hotel offers an unparalleled combination of luxury, comfort and a breathtaking seafront location.
From the moment I arrived I was greeted with exceptional service. The staff was always friendly, helpful and professional, which made my stay particularly pleasant. Every member of staff strived to ensure I felt welcome and cared for.
The rooms at the Atlantis Bay Hotel are a highlight in themselves. Spacious, elegant and minimally furnished and boasting stunning views of the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean, they provided the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The luxurious amenities and attention to detail made the stay particularly comfortable.
The hotel's dining options were equally impressive. The restaurant offered an exquisite selection of local and international dishes, all prepared with fresh, high quality ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the variety of seafood and the creative interpretations of traditional Sicilian cuisine. Every bite was a delight that perfectly showcased the culinary diversity of the region.
The hotel's leisure facilities also left nothing to be desired. The pool area was very well maintained for relaxing and had a wonderful view of the sea. The wellness offerings were first class and helped to revitalize the body and mind. The hotel's location also offered an ideal starting point for exploring the many sights and cultural highlights of Taormina. The gondola to reach the historic center of Taormina is a 5-minute walk away.
The Atlantis Bay Hotel combines luxury, first-class service and a dream location in a way that is truly remarkable. It is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday where you can let yourself be pampered.
I can highly recommend the Atlantis Bay Hotel in Taormina. It offers an incomparable experience that exceeds all expectations and makes a stay in Sicily unforgettable. Anyone who is annoyed by the railway line that runs through the mountain behind the hotel probably doesn't have any other problems. You almost don't hear it and if you understand the geographical location of how Taormina is structured it should be understandable.

Mein Besuch im Restaurant Nui Im Atlantis VRetreat Hotel in Taormina war eine wahre Gaumenfreude. Das Essen war deliziös und der Service ausgezeichnet, was den Abend zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis machte.
Das Menü bot eine beeindruckende Auswahl an frischen, saisonalen Zutaten. Wir genossen eine Vielfalt an Gerichten, darunter köstlich zubereitetes Gemüse, perfekt al dente gekochte Teigwaren, zarten Fisch und saftiges Fleisch. Jeder Gang war ein Genuss für die Sinne, harmonisch abgestimmt und meisterhaft präsentiert.
Besonders hervorheben möchte ich die Raffinesse der Küche. Die Teigwaren waren hausgemacht und schmeckten einfach himmlisch. Der Fisch war frisch und auf den Punkt gegart, während das Fleisch butterzart und voller Geschmack war. Auch das Gemüse überzeugte durch seine Frische und die kreative Zubereitung.
Der Service im Restaurant Nui war ebenso beeindruckend. Das Personal war äusserst aufmerksam, freundlich und kompetent, was zur entspannten und luxuriösen Atmosphäre des Abends beitrug. Jeder Wunsch wurde uns förmlich von den Augen abgelesen, und wir fühlten uns rundum verwöhnt.
Das Ambiente des Restaurants ist elegant und stilvoll, mit einer traumhaften Aussicht auf die Mermaid Bucht, die das gesamte Erlebnis perfekt abrundet. Es ist der ideale Ort für ein romantisches Abendessen oder einen besonderen Anlass.
Alles in allem kann ich das Restaurant Nui im Atlantis VRetreat Hotel von Taormina wärmstens empfehlen. Es ist ein Ort, an dem exzellentes Essen, erstklassiger Service und eine bezaubernde Atmosphäre aufeinandertreffen. Ein Besuch hier ist ein Muss für jeden Feinschmecker.

BEAUTIFUL FOOD.
The service was great, the building and scenery was out of this world.
The fish tasted like it had just been caught.
on the very pricey side but worth every penny.
