Oh what can I say about Casa Manuel and Massimo? My friend and I are still reeling about the house, the view in this property and most especially Massimo. The house is clean and he is the only property that I ever stayed in that provided an array of breakfast staple. Milk, yogurt, all kinds of pastries, cereals and of course coffee. Oh and some big bottles of water. Check in was easy. He would have waited for us but he had to work but he left the keys to a close by restaurant. He came by after his work to check on us and explained the ins and out if the house. The view of the house is superb. The pictures does not do any justice. The house is clean. We love staying in Casa Manuel and my friend and I are already planning our next trip to Taormina and stay in Massimo's property. And did I tell you that Massimo went above and beyond as a host. He recommended the most fabulous places to eat and hangout at the beach. We met his family and he even took us to the train station after we checked out! That is white glove service. We love staying at this property but we love meeting and getting to know Massimo and his family more.
