Lovely, homely apartment with everything you need to feel at home away from home, but that terrace? Wow! The pictures don’t do it justice. We spent so many hours gazing out over Taormina and the sea with a coffee, we never wanted to leave. We cooked in the apartment a lot as the kitchen is really well equipped and there’s a superb fish shop a few doors away. There aren’t many restaurants with a view to rival the apartment either.
The apartment is on the waterfront of Giardini Naxos about a mile from Taormina-Giardini railway station. There are lots of restaurants and bars along the sea front, and a public beach about 50 m away. Buses go along the road behind the apartment up to Taormina.
The owners were very kind, organising a tour up Etna and sorting out things like taxis for us. All in all a fantastic location, a comfortable apartment and very helpful hosts. Highly recommended.
