We absolutely loved our stay at Johnny and Maria’s place in Taormina! The apartment and outdoor area was perfect and the view is incredible! It is a tough walk up to the apartment but absolutely worth it. We could roll our bag up about 3/4 of the way and then had to pick up and carry for the stairs for the last quarter. It is doable if you are are relatively fit. The effort of the stairs is 100% worth it for the view and serenity at the top. Graziella is a lovely host and we would definitely recommend.
