We absolutely loved our time in Taormina in Claudio's apartment. It was clean, spacious, gorgeous view from the balcony and very well equipped. More importantly, Claudio was a perfect host and was very responsive to any questions that we had...there were no issues with the apartment at all, just a little tricky to find and navigate around the tiny streets if you have a car (a small car would make the most sense). Loved, loved the town and the surrounding areas...just beautiful!
