Ferdinando's apartment was perfect for our stay in Taormina! Ideal location and he and his family were lovely hosts. The terrace has views of the sea and bustling street below. I'm very glad we stayed here rather than a hotel - it was nice to have such a tranquil retreat as an option and the ability to cook a few of our own meals (although we mostly indulged in the local restaurants - our favorite was Osteria RossoDiVino). Ferdinando and his family were just as informative and accommodating as any hotel - if not more so. I hope to return some day!
