Really enjoyed our stay. We particularly liked being further up in the cliffs by the old church as it seemed more undiscovered than the more touristy centre. Views spectacular from the top, and of course from the terrace.
The scenic walk down the steps to the centre was a particular highlight, although would recommend a taxi up.
Driving around Taormina was particularly challenging due to the steep, zig-zag roads but we found we could walk/taxi everywhere so just left the car parked outside (Massimo kindly reserved a space for us).
All in all a thoroughly enjoyable stay.
