We stayed for a week in late July at Alessandra's beautifully decorated apartment.
It is full of tasteful art works etc & even a piano.
We were welcomed with fruit & water & Alessandra's son Roberto is so helpful, nothing seemed to much trouble & was always available for any questions we had.
It is located in the heart of busy Taormina & close to lots of restaurants.
There was daily evening music & sometimes even a live vocalist which we enjoyed from nearby resturants.
While there wa a water issue in the village on one day it was resolved quickly enough.
The bedroom portable air condinioning unit is quite noisy to sleep with so pack some ear plugs.
If your stay involves beach trips I would recommend bringing a beach towel of some type.
The locale buses run to many of the nearby beaches with Letojani being our favourite.
Would highly recommend Alessandra's apartment.
