This is a wonderful apartment for a visit to Taormina. The third floor location has a great view of the Ionian sea and also of the beautiful garden and pool. The balcony is huge and has both a second lounge and dining space. The elevator is small but works very well. The apartment layout provides privacy for two couples and the design is spacious and stylish throughout. Teresa is an excellent local host. Perhaps the best feature is the location which has pedestrian access through the gardens to the centre of Taormina. I can't imagine a better choice for those preferring an apartment to a hotel.
