My definition of a perfect host is Paolo. He is generous of his time and attention to his guests ~ beyond any Airbnb host or 5 star hotel I've stayed in. He is well organized and on top of every detail in his apartments. He made sure I was comfortable and content. His apartment is in a great neighborhood 2 blocks from the Corso, the main street in Taormina which is where you want to be. Close by is the road that leads to the steps to La Chiesa Madonna della Rocca and beyond if that is on your itinerary. The apartment is also central to the best grocery store in town. They have delicious local fresh products and anything else you'd need. His restaurant recommendations were all sublime and anything else I needed in the area he knew about. Truly, he is one of a kind, unforgettable in the best sense of the word. Enjoy!
