First things first. The place (not just the apartment, the condo) was built thinking in the details and it is maintained by the owner in impeccable and clean conditions (every single day).
The pics are then a true reflection of what we found, a really nice and comfortable apartment. There is an exemption, the view is better than in the pics.
Two things to take into account tough. Parking. We used the car almost every day (not all because you do not need it to go to the city) and we never had a problem finding a spot (we visited in the summer so high season) but, if you happen not to find a spot in the street you will have to pay for it in the private parking nearby. The second point to mention are the stairs, for all the apartment you will have stairs. If you have problems with that then maybe Taormina is not a city for you anyway . We got some help with the luggage when checking in and out so really appreciated it.
