We had a lovely 4 nights at Blu Living.
The property is in a great location, a 10 minute walk up into town (Lots of steps) or a 10 minute walk down to the beach/cablecar. The area is peaceful, with beautiful views of the hills and sea. Watching the sunrise from the porch was incredible. We had the best nights sleep here out of anywhere we've stayed on our 4 weeks of travels so far. Really comfy bed/pillows and overall a really comfortable space to feel at home in.
Communication with Barbara-Anne was super smooth for check-in. They initially were going to take our bags prior to the 3pm check-in time but then allowed us to check in several hours early. Sadly we never got to meet her or Allen in person or to access the much talked about vegetable garden. Communication with Allen about check-out/organising a taxi was non existent and was the only slight downside. Apart from that though our stay was 10/10.
Taormina itself is worth visiting if your planning a trip to Sicily. Very charming, with incredible views and lots of great places to eat. If you fancy a good hike, head up to neighbouring Castelmola and then on to Mount Venere. Steep but rewarding.
Would definitely recommend this stay to anyone wanting to explore Taormina and surrounding areas. We didn't have a car and still found everything accessible. Taxi's are quite expensive (25Euro!) to the train station so try and time your arrival with the bus.
