Our "Casa Turi" experience started with a winding drive up from Taormina, through lovely artistic narrow streets of multistoried buildings, many covered with flowering bougainvillea and decorated with the striking Sicilian pottery ... Upon finding Via Branco, and carefully descending, (not hard after the first time) Giuseppe met us just as we parked our car (in the rain) and carried our suitcases down the steps to the Casa.
He promised that the rain was unusual. It in fact freshened up the canyon, the olive trees, and other canyon vegetation.
The rooms are bright , the floor tiles and decor lovely. Close to public steps and path, so that you don't need to drive to Taormina, or the closer grocery store. Lighted with discrete street lights, (we had dinner in T. and returned after dark) we did carry small flashlight at night, but only necessary in one or two places.
The photos are quite accurate.. the place is a delight.
