We had a fabulous stay in Vincenzo's apartment. It was a very easy journey on the bus from the airport to the town which only cost 30 Euros return for 2 of us, then a 10 minute walk to the property. I believe taxis are 75 Euros each way. The apartment was very clean with beautiful modern furnishings and is steps away from the main street in Taormina. There is a small supermarket a few doors along, a bakery next door and an indoor market selling fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, meat, cheese etc just around the back of the house (through a little alleyway by the supermarket) so we had everything we needed right on our doorstep. Vincenzo recommended a fabulous restaurant which we visited, it was the best meal we had in Taormina and was the only restaurant we visited which was full. We would recommend a trip on the bus to Castelmola (15 minutes away) a beautiful little village perched high up above Taormina. We also enjoyed walking up to the Madonna in the Rock Church although we were not able to reach the fort as the gate was locked. I would highly recommend booking this apartment, you will have a fabulous time in Taormina.
