The view from the balcony is incredible, it is amazing to wake up to as well as relax with a drink or dinner. The location is just outside the main area of Taormina, allowing you to walk in within 10 minutes, but retire to somewhere a little quieter. The fastest walk back is via some steep stairs, or there is a longer route on the road but is uphill, so keep that in mind if not the most physically able. Francesco was kind enough to collect us from the bus terminal in Taormina, and drive us back to the accommodation, giving us advice as he went. He also provided recommendations throughout the trip on restaurants and supermarkets, all very much appreciated as we had some great food! There was water in the fridge for us upon our arrival and Francesco was present every now and then to check on the property to make sure everything was OK - but gave us notice to avoid being intrusive. This is a great accommodation and we wouldn't look anywhere else next time.
