We enjoyed our stay in Aci Castello. The accommodation had three good sized bedrooms, and a well equipped kitchen. As well as a nice sized terrace overlooking the ocean. We enjoyed watching the rain rolling in, the sky clearing and the general changes of the ocean view. The decor is simple but functional. The smallish town has plenty of restaurants and is a ten minute walk, but there is a small grocery store across the street and some restaurants closer by. We had an issue with the WiFi but the owner was very responsive. It was not an easy fix but it was resolved before we left.
The hot water went out but it was a quick fix changing the propane tanks which was immediately taken care of.
The parking spot was helpful but tight, so a small car is recommended.
Overall a good stay and a central location for exploring Taormina, Siracusa and Etna.
