Description (provided by Virtuoso)

Set high in the rocky hills on the East coast of the island, with front row seats to Mt. Etna, Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo has always been one of the favourite destinations of both Hollywood’s and Europe’s most prominent stars; from Sofia Loren to Audrey Hepburn, from Marcello Mastroianni to Liz Taylor.
With a majestic backdrop of the Greek Theatre, the hotel was first built in 1873 and is surrounded by a 6-acre park and magnificent gardens where the panoramic pool is located. This historical hotel is well known for its "Literary Terrace” which has always been a preferred meeting spot for illustrious guests. The hotel consists of 70 units, 45 rooms and 25 suites, most with terraces or balconies offering breathtaking views over the bay. The rooms’ interior design evokes the magnificence of the Sicilian tradition with a unique blend of beauty and comfort. At the top of the hill, the two-bedroom Presidential Suite features two elegant bedrooms, a lounge and dining room, a large terrace with a garden house, and a stunning 200sqm terrace with a private Jacuzzi. Guests can take advantage of the private beach of the hotel's sister property Belmond Villa Sant'Andrea and hire one of the new exclusive cabanas facing the glittering aquamarine sea.
