Location location location! Casa Lucia is smack dab in the middle of Taormina center. It’s also very close to the shuttle bus that takes you to the parking lot if you have a car. I never actually met Daniella, but I met other members of her family who were incredibly helpful. We were greeted with water and fresh fruit in the refrigerator. The apartment itself is small but suitable for 2 or 3 people. There is a cute balcony overlooking the piazza. One thing I will mention is that there is quite a bit of stairs, including a narrow spiral staircase, to get to the apartment, which may be a problem for anyone with mobility issues. Other than that I definitely recommend casa Lucia and I would stay again!
