Taormina is a beautiful place & Vanessa's place is perfectly located - close to shops, restaurants, public transport & sites. The apartment was very clean, spacious, well-equipped & had a great shower with good water pressure. We only had 2 days & half of 1 day was spent in Siracusa. We would have loved to have spent more time in Taormina although we did explore & eat a lot in the short time we had there.! Overall, we recommend Taormina, the apartment & Vanessa & her lovely Mama as hosts!
