Pool with a sea view reached by an elevator carved into the rock

(Patria) - One of the most beautiful hotel pools in Italy is located in the very south of the country, in Sicily - more precisely 55 kilometres from Catania airport, below Taormina.

The aerial view best reveals the beauty of this place, merged with cliffs and the sea, overlooking the Gulf of Giardini Naxos and the island of Isola Bella.

The biggest asset of Una hotel Capotaormina is precisely the natural scenery that seems almost unreal.

Besides being surrounded by the sea on three sides, in the distance you can also see Mount Etna.

The beach, where you will find sand and pebbles, is reached by an elevator in the rock, and a natural cave leads to two pools built into the cliffs with a sea view, into which you can easily descend and swim.

Umbrellas and sunbeds do not need to be paid extra, reports Punkufer.

The hotel, with seven floors above ground - and one floor below the reception, has 190 rooms, all with balconies overlooking the garden or the sea.

Guests have at their disposal three restaurants with Mediterranean and international specialities, as well as a gym, beauty salon and jewellery store.

If you get tired of lounging on the beach, you can explore Taormina, which is reached by free buses, or head to the numerous attractions of Sicily.
