We had a very lovely two days at La casetta di Mary - the flat is very nicely decorated, light and airy, and well equipped. However the highlight for us was the large private terrace and the view across the ocean - the best view in Taormina! It was very nice to meet Mary at the beginning of our stay, she was very friendly and showed us round the flat. We had to sign a short contract and pay a small amount of local tax (2 euro each per night) in cash on arrival. Mary's parents live in the flat upstairs, and although they didn't disturb us at all during our stay, it was nice to know they were on hand if needed. Use of the parking garage for a small additional cost was very useful as even in March parking in Taormina would have been hard work! The apartment is directly opposite the cable car, and its a five minute stroll round the corner to the main street with all the restaurants. We loved staying here - thank you!
