Residence Letojanni

The Resort & Setting

Residence Letojanni sits in Taormina, the hilltop town that has drawn travellers to Sicily's eastern coast for generations. Guest reviews describe it as a relaxed, casual apartment hotel rather than a formal resort, with comfortable units — many with sea views — plus an outdoor pool, spa and on-site dining. As an independent property, it's run independently of any chain, but its RCI affiliation means owners can exchange their week for stays at other RCI resorts around the world. Google rates it 3.7/5 from over 400 reviews, which is worth knowing whether you're buying, selling or renting: it's a no-frills base for exploring the coast, not a five-star showpiece.

Taormina and the Area

Taormina needs little introduction — it's one of Sicily's best-known towns, perched above the Ionian Sea with the Greek Theatre as its centrepiece. From Residence Letojanni you're a short walk from that theatre, from the winding old-town lanes, and from Isola Bella's little beach and nature reserve just down the hillside. Mount Etna, Europe's largest active volcano, is within day-trip range, as are the Alcantara Gorges, where you can wade through cool river water between basalt rock walls. Messina city, with its cathedral and seafood markets, lies further north along the strait that separates Sicily from the mainland. It's a region built around a dramatic coastline, a volcanic landscape and old stone villages — plenty to fill a week whatever time of year you visit.

Selling or Renting Out Your Week Here

If you own a week at Residence Letojanni and want to sell or rent it out, you can list it directly on BidMyTimeshare.com as a private, owner-to-owner listing. You set your own asking price, interested buyers or renters contact you through the platform, and there's no broker taking a cut — just a one-time listing fee to get your ad live, with 0% commission on the transaction itself.

Because Residence Letojanni is an independent resort, any resale or transfer is handled through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management, rather than a national brand office. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask management directly for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee — these details aren't published figures we can quote here, and they can change from year to year. It's also worth checking whether any RCI exchange credits or points attached to your week are transferable, since that's often a deciding factor for a buyer, or confirming they stay with you if you're only renting the week out rather than selling it outright.

Practical Notes for Owners and Travellers

Via Silemi in Taormina puts the resort within walking distance of the town centre, though expect the steep, stepped streets typical of this hillside town — comfortable shoes matter more here than they might elsewhere. The nearest major airport is Catania Fontanarossa, roughly 50 km to the south, with Palermo a longer transfer at around 250 km. Peak summer (June–September) brings the heaviest crowds and highest demand for rentals; spring and autumn offer quieter, milder weeks that many renters actually prefer. Anyone renting from an owner here should ask what's included — pool and spa access, parking, final cleaning — since this varies between independent resorts and isn't always obvious from a listing alone.
