Owner's Experience

When we first opened Cohen House in 2020 during the pandemic, we had just three guests in our first month. By personally greeting every visitor, arranging private transfers from Catania Airport, and sharing our favourite hidden restaurants in Taormina, word spread quickly. Today we welcome over 400 guests annually and maintain a 4.9-star rating across 87 verified reviews on TripAdvisor and Google. One memorable moment was when a guest from Australia said our property rivalled Positano — that single review brought us twelve new direct bookings.
