Maria's Le Grand blue apartment is a really lovely place to spend a few days. Despite being just a few metres from the main street in Taormina, it is beautifully quiet and relaxing with a sweet little terrace on the top floor. The house has good quality fixtures and fittings and has some lovely art, ceramics, rugs etc to give the place an individual feel. If i where to visit Taormina again, i would stay here again. Maria was great - took time out to recommend bars and restaurants and was really relaxed about our unsure arrival time. The fridge was well stocked with fruit, tea, coffee, cakes etc. All in all, a great experience.
