Evelyne has a fantastic bnb in the heart of Taormina and I strongly recommend it if you'd like to situate yourself in the town for any amount of time.
With everything very clean and accessible, plus a great breakfast spread and wonderful hospitablilty, it was a very pleasant stay at Evelyne's - even when my luggage didn't arrive for the first 3 days!
For future guests, she is trilingual - French, Italian and English and very accommodating, helpful and very informed on anything you'd like to know about the town, with many great tips!
Thanks for a lovely time, Evelyne!
